I’m writing this post to help raise awareness against internet pornography. This major tool we call the internet at times offers unlimited access to pornography. Which our children could easily gain access to. Unfortunately this problem isn’t going away. We can only try to reduce the access by teaching our children about internet safety. And here’s just another way that could help you and I to fight this battle. I came across a site tonight that offers software that can locate pornography on your computer. This program will do an image-analysis by simply doing a quick scan of your computer. It will then locate and delete pornography from almost any computer system. You owe it to your kids to at least do something to help our kids remain safe online.

I just read an article online that states that the Blu-ray Disc Association recently started to license their technology to Chinese manufactures. You all know what that means, Blu-Ray players for under $100 bucks. I hate to say it, but that’s when I’ll get one. If we could build these players and sell them at a much more affordable price I would have gotten one a long time ago. Right now these Blu-Ray players are selling for more than $200, which is way to high in my opinion. And the disc’s cost about twice as much as the standard DVD, why? I once heard that making a Blu-Ray disc was cheaper than making a standard DVD. The same happened when we went from a VHS tapes to a DVD, it was cheaper to make the DVD. At the time they where selling the DVD for twice the amount of the VHS tape. If these makers would stop being so greedy we wouldn’t need Chinese manufactures to get the pricing under control, and people would by more things made in the USA. I really feel that if the maker of anything would charge reasonable prices for their products we would be much better off than what we are now. The greed needs to stop!

For most of you I’m sure you’ve had problem with your hosting provider, I know I have.  When the time was right I made the move, to another provider, left the other one behind.  And if you’re seriously looking for a new web site hosting provider as well you need to do a simple search via your choice of search engine.  I would recommend doing a search for “website hosting.”  Once you find someone you like check to see what other’s are saying about them.  They may have a good rating in some areas, and a bad rating in others.  There are people out there that love to rate everything they buy and use, so you will find something.  I base all my purchases based on customer service, then price.  Something may look good and cheap, but could cost you more down the road.  Another thing you can do is find a site that based their findings on customer satisfaction, affordability, reliability, uptime and technical support.  Anyway, you should have no problem finding a new provider, hey, some will even more your site over for free.

I have a few questions for all of you. Are your fed up with your hosting provider? Does your site have a lot of down time? And do you feel that your hosting provider could deliver much better customer service? If you answered yes to any of these questions you need to seek out another provider, fast.

If you’re business website constantly goes down it will cost you money, and customers. If you’re a site owner, business or personal, you know how hard it is to find reliable web hosting, which is very critical to your business. As most of you know, when your site goes down you just want to pull your hair out. You purchase a plan, your promissed up site time, then out it goes, drives me nuts. So do what I did, research, research, and research your next provider. Call them, talk to someone on the phone. Most of these providers don’t offer toll free numbers, but that’s not a big problem. They just want to reduce the calls for low level questions. To avoid phone charges, call from your cell phone. I know I’m running on here, but I can’t stress enough, call your provider, and research them. Good luck on your searches.

One of the most asked questions I receive is – Is getting free hosting really a good deal?  We’ll, I really don’t know, I’ll leave it up to you (readers) to answer that after you read what I have to say.  Ok, if you like having those annoying banners or pop-ups on your site?  Or if you found a free hosting provider that doesn’t have the banners or pop-ups but has given you next to nothing in space and bandwidth.  Which if you use up all your space your site stands the chance of going out.  Now, on the other hand you can purchase a hosting account from some really good providers out there.  I have found some hosting providers that charge between $1.99 to $8.99 a month for services.  All of these provider offer different packages you would need to research.  Remember, your website is yours, take control on how you want it to be viewed by the rest of the world.  If you don’t really care about the banners or pop-ups, go with the free hosting.  If you hate the banners and pop-ups and you think your viewers will as well, purchase yourself a good hosting account.  That’s all I have to say on this subject!

Are you someone who has just lost your job? Are you in the process of looking for a new career path to take? Or maybe your someone just browsing around the internet and came across this post. If you answer yes to any of the questions above you need to read this post. I came across a unique opportunity that seems it would be a lot of fun, as well as challenging. And of course, the jobs pay well.

How would you like to take part in helping a company tighten their IT security by becoming a Hacker? That’s right, I said a Hacker, but a good guy hacker. Hacking isn’t for me, but might be for some of you. I say do a google search for hacker jobs, you’ll find what you need.

Are you looking for a new way to search the internet? If so I came across a site that will help you find local businesses and news faster than ever. Plus, if your looking for how bad allergies will get in your zip code area, just type it in their search and you just might find what your looking for. Or how about doing a search on someone’s background. Not a problem, their search tool can do that as well. Or how about this, doing a search on a phone number that keeps on calling you. Their search tool can do a reverse phone number search and tell you who’s calling. These are just a few things you can do with their search tool. Check them out to see if they can do some searches for you, their called GOOGLE!

How about that, one of the biggest hang out spots for hackers got hacked. The site, which I’m not going to name, because you should never visit a hacker site, was hacked by the user “Catch Them.” He gathered the full list of registered users, all their passwords, and even their email addresses. Then he or she posted the gathered information on the Full Disclosure security mailing list. This person also posted screen shots of the hack job, including their user list. I guess things really do come full circle. I read the site has been in and out, but not fully sure, I didn’t visit the site. Hacker sites provide information to people to use against good people. And sites that provide tips to hack others should be removed. And we can only hope that this one stays down for good, but the chances are it won’t.

I have seen a lot of web editing tools out there. So many that it’s really hard for me to say. I have tried a few of them and man where they ever so hard to work with. I got so confused with this one company’s software I completely removed the demo from my computer. I was so glad that I was able to review the demo before I made any purchase.

After searching and trying many different ones I finally settled for Microsoft FrontPage®. Now, I’m not recommending this program, I’m just stating that this one works for me. I find everything about FrontPage® very easy to use. Before you invest in FrontPage® review and read as much information about other web editing software. Who knows, you may find something else out there that you really like.

As I look back over the years of the internet I can’t think of a better deal than the deal that just formed between Microsoft and Yahoo. This deal will hurt Google in many ways. Google will never say it, but it’s going to hurt their bottom line. Microsoft has their new search tech site bing.com, which is much better than Google’s search. In case your not sure what this deal details between Microsoft and Yahoo I’ll tell you. It’s very simple, Microsoft will be handling the search side of Yahoo, that’s it. Microsoft has the money to bring new tech to the world. And Yahoo has the people, which make for a perfect match. This deal is great for the world marketers. This will drive down advertising prices from Google and other online search engines. I just hope this 10 year deal last for a very long time. What I think will happen in the end is that Yahoo will build up their other businesses and then sell the whole company to Microsoft for billions.
