I have been wanting to secure my WiFi network for some time now. I figured now was as good of a time as any since my family is out of town visiting family. Warning: this may be boring to some of you. But please read it still. Perhaps you will still learn something.
Both my DSL [...]
Today, I got scared that I would someday lose data on my computer such as email and digital photos. I don’t like to think of what would that be like. So I finally decided to try a remote backup service.
A while back I had heard of a local company called Berkeley Data Systems that started [...]
For those slackers out there that love to surf the Internet while on the clock, check out workfriendly.net. You type in a website and a new window pops up that makes it look like you’re reading a Word doc with the web site inside the window. It’s pretty cool.
I tried to go to the site [...]
So I notice a lot of debate going on lately about whether consumers watch more or less TV when they use a DVR. Personally, I think I watch less TV.
Since I have gotten my TiVo two years ago (I remember the day well), I have been able to watch shows that I always wanted to [...]

Ever since I have heard the word that Opera is making a browser for the Nintendo DS, I have been very excited. About a month ago I read a review of it. It seems it will be missing a few minor features such as not supporting pdf files, video, or sound.
Yesterday I saw a video [...]
When I first got my iPod, I immediately searched for a method to copy music to and from it without using iTunes. After some searching, I was led to SharePod. It has been a great utility.
Despite a few shortcomings, it does what it needs to do pretty well. It has saved me in a few [...]
I am starting a search for a photo sharing site. Currently, I am using flickr and it has suited my needs up to this point. But I am running out of space for my free account. I am going to evaluate more sites before buying a pro account.
Here are the following requirements that I have:

Last week I got an early Father’s Day gift - the new and improved Nintendo DS Lite. So I have had it for a week now and I am very impressed so far.
I have only played a handful of games and they have all been pretty fun. I love that it has WiFi built in [...]
