THEME ROUND 2!

BACK WITH ANOTHER THEME WEEK!
It's to start on Friday.
But.... with a slight change in the format.

-> We'll post like eight questions.
-> But our grand connect IS NOT related to all 8!

-> Any FOUR random questions could be the ones which give you the theme.

Example.
Say, the answers to our eight questions are
1) Picasa, 2) TinEye, 3) Bill Gates, 4) YouTube, 5) Android, 6) Norton Antivirus, 7) Larry Page, 8) IBM

Right, observe carefully. In those 8 answers, you'll see 4 random ones with a definite connect.
In the above example,

1) PICASA, 4) YOUTUBE, 5) ANDROID and 7) LARRY PAGE
Connect- GOOGLE!!
So, in this case, answers to Questions 1, 4, 5 and 7 were the questions which gave us the connect!
Hope you understood!
Cheers.
