Google’s New Chromecast TV Dongle: Google announced today that starting today they will begin selling a $35 “Chromecast Dongle” in the U.S. This small device will connect to an HDMI plug on a television and allow users to use it to stream video content from laptops and tablets to their television sets.

Woah! I’m really digging the template/theme of this blog. It’s simple, yet effective.
A lot of times it’s challenging to get that “perfect balance” between superb usability and appearance. I must say you have done a superb job with this. Additionally, the blog loads super fast for me on Firefox. Excellent Blog!
Hmm it looks like your site ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I
wrote and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I too am an aspiring blog blogger
but I’m still new to the whole thing. Do you have any points for newbie blog writers?
I’d really appreciate it.
Quality articles is the important to be a focus for the users to go
