Recently I was looking for information about the predicted future of email spam, and I had a hard time finding any articles that gave any concrete information on how spam emails may infiltrate our lives in the future. Maybe that’s because it may not be strictly email spam that we’ll be dodging.

I really haven’t gotten worked up over 3D just yet. I’ve seen a few 3D flicks with the majority of them getting just an “OK” review from me.  Much of the time when watching a 3D show, I find myself waiting for another 3D gag, wondering what’s going to jump in front of my face next. Maybe that’s why when I have a choice between a 3D or 2D movie, I’ve chosen 2D because I value the quality of the story over the technology (and because I dislike wearing those extra large clown glasses.) By the way, you’ve heard of H1N1, right? That’s a whole other reason to hate the glasses! (My apologies to the movie theaters. I’m sure you do a wonderful job of disinfecting those glasses between shows.) I’ve recently seen the 2D version of James Cameron’s “Avatar” and thoroughly enjoyed it. It had a great story and the special effects were not distracting. I want to see the movie again in 3D, as the majority people I know who have seen Avatar in 3D absolutely loved it.
