Internet
A coworker asked me of a website that tracks different versions of websites. I forgot what it was (gasp) but my boss remembered that it’s the Internet Archive Wayback Machine.
I checked All Narfed Up to see if it was tracked, only to find out I blocked it eons ago. (See?)
If you don’t want its spiders [...]
I haven’t tried Adobe Photoshop Express, but until there’s a change in their Terms of Use, steer clear.
Keep your eye on John Nack on Adobe. You can also see other bloggers talking about it through Technorati. Wired explains it best.
My cousin, Narissa, just got a laptop for Christmas and asked me about wireless security. I figure now is a good time to revisit this because she’s probably not the only one that received a notebook for the holidays. Fortunately, she’s thinking about security; most people probably just connect to open wireless access points without [...]
The less data (files) I have to worry about my computers, the better. Amazon S3 + JungleDisk work nightly, backing up the more crucial folders. Almost weekly, I synchronize everything to an external hard drive.
Bookmarks are a different story.
When it comes to saving awesome sites/pages on the internets, I use the following:
del.icio.us
Google Browser Sync
AM-DeadLink
With del.icio.us, [...]
A co-worker was asking me on digital camera suggestions, but rather than buying her camera through a reputable online reseller like Amazon.com or Newegg, she went to Fry’s Electronics.
Why? She’s scared of buying stuff online. She also prefers to see and touch it before buying it.
Go to the store and check it out - but [...]
I want the fewest amount of inboxes as possible. Having to read private messages from multiple social networks detract from that.
I like that Flickr and Twitter send the full text of the message to your email address (if you request those notifications). Plus, Flickr allows you delete all your inbox messages easily - Twitter needs [...]
I finally did something with bryanvillarin.com, which I bought a few months ago. It basically summarizes me and where I am on the internet. That’s it.
I stole the idea from Gina Trapani. Gina, I haven’t met you, but keep up the awesomeness at Lifehacker!
Thanks to Blue Robot for the layout. I love simplicity. No, I [...]
I did some computer consulting a few weeks ago. The following is a true story in its entirety.
This nice lady contacted me that saying that her computer was really slow. I gathered anti-spyware software and mentally prepared for a 3-hour bout.
Fortunately, it was far from terrible. She just had AOL. Her computer was fairly new, [...]
Matt and Nick both posted about trying and liking OpenDNS. Since it’s free, doesn’t require installing anything, and only takes two settings to change, it’s amazingly simple to set it up. It invisibly speeds up web browsing, adds spell checking (if you misspell a domain name), and protects from phishing. At work, our connection is [...]
Someone I know has been having problems with his computer, and I have to pass it along here. I’m not feeling up to the task of troubleshooting, so I hope someone can help him out.
My internet is running terribly slow. The other computer on my network is running normal and every website opens up super [...]
