Every one likes a good, simple game that they can get there teeth sunk into. Todays game, Neon Tango, is based on the popular Xbox Arcade game Geometry Wars. Its great fun to play and master.

I like playing computer games, a good way to relax and let the time pass. One of my favourite games is Mahjong, although I don’t play the actual Chinese version against many people, I do like to play the variant where you have to remove the tiles.

This post is going to be a little who’s who on the new features.

There is lots of different analytical options including reports and how much you have been making, plus various options such as tracking the quotes.

Mac security is important, especially for laptops. You have invested a lot of money in a system and the last thing you want it to do is walk out the door and never be seen again.

Although it can be hard to keep people from do this sort of thing, you can deter and prevent it by catching the people involved. WatchMac, is an app which monitors your computer for any sudden movements, or incorrect password entries and takes a picture of the culprit.

Every one in a while you need to clean your Mac, this usually helps keep you Mac in tip top shape and it enables you to get the most out of your Mac without doing very much work. Although there are hundreds of free tools which can do this sort of thing, I wanted to try CleanMyMac. It seems a well designed and stylish app which seemed to be getting some attention in the blogosphere. The app is designed to run through various files and folders and decided whether they should be kept, for instance it flags cache and language files you don’t need.

It takes the hassle out of using the website and puts it in a simple to use Mac interface that we are all used to.
