Screen recorder free download

Screen recorder free download makes it easy to post a screen show on Youtube. The screen recorder free download that I recommend is Jing. It's easy to use and best of all it's free, their is also a pro paid version, but if you're starting out the free version should be enough.
This software is capable of recording pictures or even a video of your monitor, so imagine you want to post a video on Youtube teaching someone how to use a search engine for example. You can go through it step by step, and you can add sound to it if you like. It's really simple an user friendly software that will sure come in handy.
You can also share it instantly either through e-mail, twitter, your blog. So it's ready to publish on some on-line web 2.0 platforms.

Netstat : Check what Internet connection you have active.

With Netstat you can check what Internet connections are active on your computer. To start Netstat all you have to do is open the DOS command line on your windows operating system, a black screen window will appear on your monitor. On your Windows it should be in a directory called Accessories, so as soon as you open it it should appear a black screen with a command line waiting for you to introduce a command...

Write "nestat /h" : it will show you all the options available
You'll have a whole list of options:

• "-a" : will show you all the current connections on your computer
• "-a" space "-f" will show you all the connections and eventually URL that they are hooking up with

Now don't get worried, it's normal to have several connections active while you are on the Internet, however, check them carefully, use "-b" to see which programs are using the Internet connection ....

More useful commands:

• "/h" or "-help" : gives you the whole list of options available
• "-b" will show you what programs are using the connections

Open Office

On the Openoffice download you'll find the whole suite which includes Openoffice Writer, Openoffice Calc, Openoffice Impress, Openoffice Base, Openoffice Draw and Openoffice Math.
Although Microsoft Office Word or Microsoft Office, has a complete office suite, it's not an open source. To get office software for free on the Internet, you can check out the openoffice free download site (just write Openoffice on your search box).
Tired of the constant evolution, 2003, 2007, 2XXX versions of the same software. To keep up to date with Microsoft you'll be spending some money, you're probably better off using that money on hardware.
For whom of you who are more familiar with Microsofts Office suite the programs are rather similar, although they are called differently:

• Word is called Writer
• Excel is called Calc
• Powerpoint is called Impress
• Acess is called Base

Openoffice can open any file that has been saved with Microsofts Office suite, and can save it's files in that same format as well. They are very similar programs and most of the functions are more or less in the same place, so you can easily adapt to this software.
The Openoffice team is constantly updating the software so you can expect to see it improving as time goes by, in my honest opinion it's a moneysaver.

Fastest Web Browser

Fastest web browser contests are constantly happening, and the first position is changing frequently. However I recommend you try Mozilla Firefox, it's free and it has a good response to the users needs. Most computers have the Internet Explorer installed an therefore most people stick with it for life, so take a leap of faith and try something new, I imagine that after a few sessions with Firefox you will never go back.
Why I recommend Firefox?

• Has a very fast response, in my opinion superior to Microsofts Internet Explorer;
• It's free to use and updates are constantly available
• More secure: in truth most virus, spyware, adware, malware and other unwanted things out their are design based on the Microsoft Internet Explorer software. I'm not saying you'll be fully secure from all those threats, but you will be exposed to a less quantity of them.
• You can personalize your web-browser to you liking;
• Add-ons, Plug-ins and other special tools are available to use with your Firefox
• It's an opensource software, so the mission of the Firefox team is to build and maintain a efficient web browser, unlike others who have shareholders and interests backing their business

Anti Spyware Software for free

Today I will talk about spyware removal software, an anti spyware free software is available, actually several adware and spyware softwares are free, you just have to look around, my choice for this post is Superantispyware software. Well, the super is just a little off, but it's good and it's free ... :)
Having a good anti-virus software may just be half the solution to your problem, you can find free on-line software that may add extra protection to your computer and your files. I have used Superantispyware free edition and I recommend it as an addition to your anti-virus software. You can download the free edition on their website at superantispyware.com.
Basically, this anti-spyware software comes with the following benefits and features:

• Will detect and remove Adware, Spyware, Malware, Trojans, Dialers, Keyloggers, Worms and many other threats.
• Does customized scanning to your hard drives, removable drives, memory, and registry
• Quarantine
• Gives you a detailed log of actions

You can download a free version for home users, you should try it, and don't be surprised to find threats that your current anti-virus did not detect.
Unfortunately the Internet looks like a very nice place, but underneath very harmful things are happening and we as normal users can't see it coming.
Good luck hope this software can be useful ...

Blog vs Website

Want to get on-line and you really don’t know which way to go! Here are some important tips that will help you choose:

Blog:

1.       Easy to use and set-up

Either with the free Wordpress and Blogger solutions, or installing Wordpress directly on your host it’s really not that difficult. Some hosts even have automatic blog installation buttons.

2.       Content can be added everyday

The content is pre-formatted, so it can be added as frequent as necessary and without much technical needs

3.       Ordered in a chronological order

Well blogs derive from the old log book, so it works in chronological order, basically showing your post by dates and not by topics. It’s easier to search by topics, although this can be done

4.       Search engines rank them well

True. Content rich blogs rank very well on search engines, so keep in mind that content is important.

5.       Two way communication

Visitors can leave comments regarding your specific content.

6.       Easier to gain visitors trust

Visitors figure that behind a post is a person who writes the blog, and sometimes the person has a Bio with down to earth information, this gains readers trust

Website:

1.       Static information

To maintain a dynamic website is not easy for someone with poor technical skills, there are widgets that you can install, but for you to add new content on a daily basis, it’s time consuming

2.       Easier to organize and to search for content than a blog

The order and the way you set up your topics is totally manageable, so you can actually simplify visitors needs with links to the specific issue

Blog Software

Everyone is blogging, to get into blogging you need blog software, with nice blog templates where you can blog post. You can make a music blog, a video blog, gmail blog, adsense blog, you can even make a blog about blogs ... it's really a crazy thing that's growing every single day. And do you know why? Because you can get free Blog hosting services, which makes it easier for everyone to have one and because search engines value blogs contents and therefore are well classified in web searches. Another good reason to have a blog is to monetize it.
Just to give you the basics about setting up your blog, you have 2 ways to do it:
- set up a free account with free online blogging hosts. My present blog is hosted on a free site which is blogger ... but you have other options out their, you just have to look around a little, wordpress also has the same service

- build you own blog using blog software to do it. This means you'll need software which I have already done a post about, you can check it out through this link. Your best bet to start off, and keep costs low is getting the free Wordpress software and install it, however read carefully the necessary hosting services. For example Wordpress will need SQL service installed to actually run, so check if your hosting service complies, before spending money.
Why pick the 2nd option as it comes out in the long run more expensive?
True, but maybe you'll have more liberty in posting. This means you will not be banned for any reason, you may monetize you blog the way you feel fit. When you are using a free software solution their are always strings attached.
I MHO if your a starter, just run it on free blogging hosts, if you feel that you have a future in blogging then spend the money after this learning experience ... surely you'll get your moneys worth and avoid beginners mistakes.
At Blogger we have control panel which we use to manage our blogs, it's really easy to use, very intuitive, you can manage your posts, comments, the settings, the design, monetize your blog and view stats. It's really very simple to start.
Their are several standard templates which you can choose from or just design it to your liking.
The design of the blog is based on standards, which you can manage, you can a lot of personalized things with you blog, if your an advanced user it may be limited, but for beginners they have so much to explore.
Monetizing your blog, it's a standard option on the dashboard, so you can use it to your advantage, be sure to read the rules .... ban is a common thing.
Good luck.
