"Go to http://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox... and hover over the + sign above the Kinect camera, says new 1080p camera.New 1080P camera produces stunning HD video, so your Skype calls will be crystal clear."

"I don't think Microsoft is making a bad bet per say, they are however playing it safe and not being really innovative. I don't think people really want full body movement games, too many people live in cramped quarters, the controller reigns supreme. Also there is a good point that who would skype in front of their living room, that was seen in Demolition man but most people skype on PC, or from a tablet, phone...etc. I don't think the TV is the place for Skype, maybe to answer a call while watching TV or playing a game but unlikely."

"My vote is on the PlayStation 4 personally, the controller is lacking any innovation in the Xbox One. Though I think Kinect had so much more potential, the much faster GDDR5 RAM in the PS4 will give it an edge on performance."
- Justin Germino
"I think the new much more accurate Kinect may have potential but the lack of innovation in the controller was a little disappointing especially with the touch interface of the PS4 and Wii-U being a better hybrid of tablet touch functionality. I see some reports saying the camera is 1080p can you confirm which is right? Also the DD3 RAM will not be nearly as fast as the RAM in the PS4, it should be interesting but if I were to bet on which system will reign supreme, it looks to me like PS4 will have it."

"This service is a full PC backup client, so anything you download and have on your PC will backup to the cloud. You would have to download your Wordpress blog/database to your PC and then let it backup to the cloud storage, it won't directly hook to your Wordpress blog."

"Thanks Sally, as there are many types of personality I think it is all too easy for timid and sensitive personalities to be impacted by lack of visits or worse, negative comments. These can cause discouragement and even make people feel depressed. I have seen this in the kids who post YouTube videos and the negative comments they get on their videos and the same holds true for bloggers. We write because we want too, an audience is nice but you blog first and foremost for yourself. This is a different attitude than someone who is a pure affiliate marketer, though affiliate marketers blog they are dependent on the sale and therefore think in terms of customers and everything they publish being toward driving sales."

"I use free audio recording software Audacity http://audacity.sourceforge.ne... and my USB mic, then I use Blubrry Powerpress Wordpress plugin to host the audio, though it is a little bit more configuration and work than you may be comfortable with, involves FTP uploading the mp3 file and then using shortcode. You could use Soundcloud for free, I sometimes use this and it does direct recording and you can embed the widget code like you would for an ad or a giveaway https://soundcloud.com/ it just has a limit of 20 hours or so on the free plan, but poems don't take up much could probably get 300+ poems on the free plan recorded if not more."

"Your TV needs an HDMI input to work with Roku HDMI, but HDMI doesn't mean 3D, 3D can only be output over HDMI cables, but plenty of TV's support HDMI and can't produce 3D. 3D TV's typically need 120hz or 240hz or better and should say 3D capable. Nothing on the Roku streams 3D to my knowledge yet, 3D technology is actually pointless to me. I hate it on TV, it is okay in theaters but the home 3D experience is very lacking in my opinion and I have no interest in it."

"Thanks, especially to Sponsored Giveaways, they are the sponsor of this giveaway and giving the laptop (value) away to one of my readers."

"Yeah, my next giveaway starting Monday will be on the Giveaway Tools platform, this would be the 5th and final platform in my giveaway tool review stuff I am working on."

"Are you referring to the place to download the gift after they sign up, or the sign up process itself? The sign up has to be a form that collects the email name...etc, so it doesn't have to be a widget, but it has to be a form somewhere hosted, it can be a link button that redirects them to Mailchimps own sign up page instead of a widget on your blog. Once you get that part you control what you want the "auto reply gift" to be, it can be a link to somewhere, web page, form, a button that links to a download file in an email...etc."

"I am like you with my ADT Home security, I love the iOS app and can check on my alarms, set them, turn them off from my phone...etc. I like that you can turn your thermostat way up when you are away, then change it to be ready for you when you get home. (Of course a timer well scheduled does this). I like apps, apps apps. Dish Network app for example, now if I forget to DVR something at home, I can log into my DVR via my Dish Network iOS app and setup my DVR while I am remote, or even watch my DVR'd shows on my iPad while at a hotel 5 states away where it streams from my home DVR up through the Internet. I agree that most won't use many of these, the tech lovers will be the first to adopt, the ones that have open source and allow API/developers to create tools may create new usage ways nobody even thought about."

"I confirmed it does require that you enter your "name" and acknowledge, I think it does this because Facebook officially doesn't allow you to follow/subscribe/like as an action for a giveaway/sweepstakes, so by it being a separate validation these programs are playing it safe to avoid violating ToS, some do it differently than others."

"This is one reason why I like equiv or cash value equiv if they aren't local residents and shipping becomes an issue. This is also why I like doing giveaways where the sponsors donate cash or coupons and I giveaway the prize, rather than pass the winners info to advertiser and wait for advertiser to deliver prize, which is something I am going to do much less frequently except in rare cases."

"Did you login with email or Facebook I can see that if you login with email it doesn't know your FB ID and can't auto confirm, but if you login with FB it should detect and grant it."

"Are you using the Google Plus commenting for Blogger, I would switch to this as only live/verified Google Plus accounts can leave comments, this reduces spam but you will get some. I hate the default blogspot commenting system, you could also use Disqus on blogger I believe. External commenting systems will reduce but not eliminate spam completely, strict moderation settings are needed."

"Thanks Michael, our mother's shape who we are and become, most people always associate the Father with the Son but that isn't always the case, especially not anymore."

"Thank you, I know that my kids will be all they can be in great part because of their mom and how much she helps and pushes them to do the best they can all the time."

"I don't consider myself an expert, but I do read at least a half dozen articles on the subject a day for last few years, so I am always trying to adapt, adopt and improve. The key is always good clean content, organic link growth, social media interaction and becoming an authority in what you write about."
