Angry Birds, the most addictive video game ever, is now available for your Windows PC as a standalone game.
Rovio Mobile did release an online version of the game a few weeks ago that was powered by Flash but this new version is native Windows app that requires no browser, no Flash and you can even smash the pigs while you are offline.
After playing the PC version of Angry Birds for a few minutes now, I am convinced that this offers a much better gaming experience than the previously released Flash version. You can either play the game in full-screen mode or resize the game window.
Angry Birds for PC costs $5 but they do have free working demo with all the initial levels unlocked. You can buy the full version using PayPal or your credit card - they'll send you a serial number via email and that will unlock all the 240+ levels in the demo version itself.
Angry Birds is compative with Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7. You will however need an internet connection for the activation process.
Old newspapers and magazines offer a wealth of insight into history and critical events as they were unfolding at that time. In the past, the only way to get hold of this treasure trove of information was your local library where the back issues of certain newspapers and magazines may have been preserved.
Fortunately, the Internet and digitization of content has made everything just a click away and now you can access previous issues of old newspapers almost as easily as today’s newspaper that’s lying on your coffee table.
Here are some of the best places on the web where you can find and read old newspapers and magazines online.
1. Google News - Google News indexes thousands of newspaper websites from around the world and organizes news in clusters for easy reading. In addition to current news, Google News also offers access to stories published in old newspapers that you can search for free.
Although many of these newspaper issues are scanned images of the original printed version, you can use Google search to find stories inside the papers through the magic of OCR. The actual content is hosted on other sites and Google will show if it cost any money to read that issue /news story.
2. Google Books - If you’re looking for an older issue of a magazine, Google Books might be the best place to find it.

All content is free, and the content ranges from between 1788 and 1920.
