If you’ve been reading Web Watch over the years, chances are that you also have an interest in also writing.
And, as Web Watch has been around for a number of years – the secret to attracting visitors to read what you write is to try to have something interesting to write about. Web Watch covers a wide range of topics — hopefully, you’ve found some of it interesting along the way.

Web Watch was at a friend’s house the other day when we noticed a lineup of jars along the kitchen counter, each one decorated with one of their children’s names. Inside the jars were various amounts of glass beads, found at your local arts-and-crafts store.
We had to ask – what’s up with the jars?

Any problem can be screwed up more by computer
A few years ago, one of Web Watch’s computer hard drives crashed.
We’re not just talking about a minor “ooh, we lost a boot sector” thing, where we could boot to a different drive and copy the files off.
No, we’re talking an extreme catastrophic event where we lost the entire drive. It was physically unable to spin up, making data recovery rather impossible on our own. Luckily, we made a few phone calls and found a data recovery company that was able to rebuild the drive’s data and copy it to a new disc.

Web Watch was driving down the highway the other day when we were almost part of an accident waiting to happen.
The doofus in the pick-up truck in front of us ended up slamming on his brakes for some reason, which led to all of us behind him having to quickly do the same. While we had plenty of braking room in front of us under normal circumstances, he had his pickup truck tailgate down, taking away an extra foot of available brake space from our squealing tires.
Luckily, this was during the day and we could see that the tailgate was down, but if this same situation happened at night, that truck would be minus one tailgate and we would be minus one engine.

Baseball – Skills & Drills: The FUNdamentals of Baserunning
One thing that Web Watch has trouble understanding is why the baseball season needs to extend out into November.
November is FOOTBALL season, as everyone knows. Sure, throw in a little pre-season basketball or hockey if you’d like – at least those two are considered “winter” sports. But baseball already has spring training, the boys of summer, and the fall classic. Why do they need to bogart the winter season as well – it’s not like baseball is played outdoors in all types of weather, like we see with real sports like football. Let’s keep the baseball playoffs to the fall months and be done with it.
Maybe the issue is that baseball players don’t really understand how to play the game.

The AMAZON KINDLE is great: whenever a new book release comes out, you can pretty much instantly download that book to your Kindle and begin reading immediately.
The hard part is knowing what books — or movies, or DVD’s, or video games — are being released each week so that you can be prepared ahead of time. Sometimes things get released and you just haven’t been paying attention.
Web Watch would like to take a moment to salute the marketing geniuses at McDonald’s for continuing the McDONALD’s MONOPOLY PROMOTION. It combines two great things into a singular quest to find the special missing sticker that will complete your game board. Boo-ya!
Let’s cut straight to the chase: there is absolutely nothing for you to do that will affect your ability to win this contest… other than doing everything you can to obtain as many game pieces as possible in the hopes that one of them is a rare chaser piece.

It seems to be one of those regular “create a public panic” news event. “OMG! Look at how silly people are with their passwords!”
Except this time, the people being silly about their passwords are kids. And with kids, it really is a good time to teach kids THE IMPORTANCE OF SELECTING A GOOD PASSWORD, because it ends up that kids really don’t know what they’re doing when it comes to protecting their personal online spaces.
The survey found that:
