Shrek Forever and After

I saw the movie Shrek Forever After. A very entertaining movie. I've liked the previous versions and this was just amazing.


The story is about how Shrek seems to be bored of his mundane life after marriage and misses the carefree life he lived before as an Ogre, when everyone was afraid of him and he could do anything that pleased him. He is tricked by Rumpelstiltskin into making a wish in exchange for a day from his life, and then Rumplestiltskin transports him to a magical world where Rumplestiltskin takes over the kingdom of Far Far Away and Shrek is never born, so his life never happened. Now Shrek has to win Fiona's love again to break the contract and get his life back.

I especially loved the songs through the movie which includes One Love, Hello, For Once in my Life, among others. An awesome movie to watch on a day off.

Let me know if you like it. :)

Freebies

The moon belongs to everyone
The best things in life they're free

Seriously, if you know where to look you can get a lot of free stuff. There are several companies that have adopted the practice of offering free samples or trial packs or starter kits of their latest products which can be used to get to know the product. Yes it may not be the full product but if you're just looking to have some fun them a demo version of a game with about 4-5 levels doesn't sound bad, does it. Some PC magazines give cd's with free or demo software which is pretty good. I managed to get Unreal Tournament, Quake 3 Arena and several other games from such free cd's.

Also I've often noticed that when purchasing something online you have the option of entering an offer code. If you use google to your advantage here, you'll most probably find a code that'll give you a decent discount. I've used discount codes when purchasing domain names and hosting so I'm speaking from my own personal experience. I've also downloaded games free based on a promotional offer. Often these offers are for a limited period only, so you need to be lucky to take advantage of them.

So if you've lucky and you've discovered some amazing freebies, don't forget to share it with others here.

Delayed June Review

This month's the review has been delayed quite a bit. I've been feeling very lazy and have been procrastinating since a long time. But finally I've tried very hard and pushed myself to the limit and finally managed to have this post published.

So lets talk about May. I've been buzzing a lot last month (read this post if you've not heard about seededbuzz) and I've recently been buzzed for the first time too. Its a good method to exchange links and provide readers with other relevant articles to read.

Also you've probably noticed the new disclosure policy and some sponsored content recently, what can I say, I hope to make some money to keep this blog online. I'll try to keep the posts relevant to the blog and publish honest opinions.

* PR Update
I've read on a few other blogs about the Google PR being updated on the 4th June and I'm glad that the PR for this blog continues to be 3. How did your blog fare in this update?

Well I don't really have anything significant planned for this month but its best that you stay subscribed to avoid missing out on sporadic updates of great value.

Happy Blogging!
