    structure of your blog? Its very well written; I love
    what youve got to say. But maybe you could
    a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.
    Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or two pictures.

    Maybe you could space it out better?

    Other than that, excellent blog!

    help stop content from being ripped off? I’d genuinely appreciate it.

    Regardless, it is best to maintain memory blocks as free or
    consolidated as you possibly can, though the additional cards are incredibly affordable,
    costing just one or two dollars at some places for the Internet.
    You will have to wait for 2-6 weeks before you can get your console back.
    You either send your console to Sony, or you will begin a fix alone with all the
    exclusive step by step techniques from a PS3 repair guide.
