Be careful to update

I've been a Window's user since 1995 until 2010. I had used 95, 98, millennium(Me) and XP, total numbers of PC were 7 including notebook and mobile PC. But I was always having problems with the updating and antivirus softwares. Sometimes antivirus software made the program run slow to access and did problem worse. I really got tired of going along with Windows because they are too hard to work networking seamlessly. So I shifted to Mac to work with iOS 5 years ago. Since then I had no problem with my Mac Pro.
I'm very sorry for those who use Windows with a lot of troubles.

Google birthday doodle

It's very amusing and playful method that Google shows the message icon individually.
I wonder AI knows all about information of the members and sending messages such as the doodle.
