A great easy way to send large files, store files, and share files. The free desktop tool allows you to send or backup entire folders using DropSend, directly from your desktop.

I have lost count of the amount of times I have been asked this week if their company should be twittering/tweeting. It seems the situation in Iran brought home the power of Twitter for many people this week.
My answered varied depending on who I was speaking to, if you want to develop a community awareness of your business, if you wish to be communicating more directly with your customers, if you will tweet on a regular basis then, yes, a great idea.
Doing it because everyone else is, is perhaps not the best reason. But by all means get involved and get your toes in the water. You may find you really enjoy it!
Google Chrome is a fabulously designed browser with sophisticated technology to make surfing the web faster, safer, and easier. Released in December 2008 by May 2009, Chrome was the fourth most widely used browser, with 1.80% of worldwide usage share of web browsers.
Chrome helps you browse safely by periodically downloading updates of two blacklists (one for phishing and one for malware), that warns users when they attempt to visit a harmful site. Firefox and Safari also do this but Internet Explorer does not. So if you haven’t been swayed to Firefox as yet I would recommend Chrome.
Check it out and let us know how you find it. (we’ve just downloaded the mac version but its still in beta so a bit unstable apparently.)
Want to display the tweets from those you follow on twitter on your own web site? Well this is the answer for you! Set up groups and publish the tagged tweets on your web site. If you are a little baffled by this give us a call and we can help you get your site integrated.
I’m a dedicated Pages user myself but I often come across people struggling with Word and spending way too much time trying to figure out how to open different versions etc. If you want to bypass all of that have a look at Open Office. It is a great free alternative to the microsoft office packages. Its easy to use, easy to install and absolutely free. Why spend good money on something when there is a fabulous free alternative!
