Well, I am not so much of a technical person, but I do know how to use an iPod. So the first time I laid my hands on one I took it in my hands and pressed all the buttons to see what they do and how the device works. So far so good. The problem is that I did not know what to do next. I bet lots of people go through this experience when buying a new gadget. So the next step is to find out how to connect the iPod to the PC. Actually, this is very easy once you realize you need something else besides the computer and the iPod. That is the USB cable that normally must be delivered to you when you buy the iPod.

Well, if you purchase the iPod from another source than the store, the cable might get lost on the way and it is understandable to be confused. So what you have to do is try to find a cable that has two ends: one smaller end is for being plugged into the USB port of your PC and one larger end is supposed to be connected to your iPod. It’s a two-end cable so you can’t directly connect the two devices if you want to download songs from the iTune store.

The iPod can’t have direct access to the internet to download songs and stuff, but you must have a computer connection for this. The USB port of the computer can be found in different locations, for example at the back of your main unit, at its front, usually near the bottom or you can have some special keyboards that have USB ports for a better access. Another possibility might be to choose the purchase of an iPod dock that has one end ready to fit the USB port of your PC and the other looking like a docking station. The advantage of this dock is that your iPod will be supported while you download music or make the playlist or something and it will also have a more comfortable vertical position. It is more elegant than a simple cable and you do not risk stepping on the cable or accidentally throw the iPod off the computer port.

Now that you know how to connect the iPod to the PC, you should also know that once the connection is made the iPod will be automatically recognized by your computer, but you will be able to access the iTunes only if you have the latest version of the iTune software installed on your iPod. You can use the CD with the software that was also given to you when you bought the device or you can check the Apple store for the latest version. Sometimes the iPod may have some problems being recognized and in this case just check the USB cable for a proper connection and also restart the device. Now tell me what do you use: a cable or a dock?

South Park is a famous American TV show that appeared first in 1991 and was produced by two guys who were students at the time. It may look like a cartoon, but it surely isn’t meant for children and also not for the most prude of us. It is considered to be among the three most popular and watched American cartoons, after Tom and Jerry and The Simpsons. Its huge popularity is given by its fresh and courageous approach of such delicate subjects that are really interesting for the public, such as religion, abortion, politics, and also all the events in the life of the American people like elections, floods and hurricanes. Of course the four characters react in a very unusual way, but they have the nerve to say what most people would not dare, even if they may think the same.
