Skyrim Horse Mods

If you are finding your horse controls lacking, there are two mods currently available that make your horse come when you whistle or that make your horse run from combat.  Here is the link to Horse Whistle.

Here's Cowardly Horses.  There are a ton of mods that change your horse's appearance but I was interested in improving control of the horse when I browsed SkyrimNexus.com.

Read all the Skyrim Books on Your eReader

I'm speechless.  Kotaku points out there are no experience points to be gained by doing this IRL but if you have too much spare time, the books are available in either the Kindle or Nook formats for download.

SkyRim Dragon Shouts

Here is a guide to shouts.  It tells you what each does and then gives a location.  I suggest you choose the shout you are interested in, then look it up at the original Elder Scrolls wiki (second link) for details.

Skyrim: Breathing Underwater

First of all, there is no health bar underwater.  Listen for the bubbles and get out of the water to breathe ASAP.  One of the dragon priest masks (there are 9 of them) grants underwater breathing.  Here are two videos on where to find them all.
