What's happening to iGoogle?

If you use iGoogle then you've probably already seen the note box above... Just when I was kind of getting used to using iGoogle they take it away! You can read more about it in the link below but unfortunately the alternatives Google gives us to iGoogle are just not the same! So check out this link to a couple of iGoogle replacements! I've looked at both and they seem pretty good... just not sure which I will use yet! Let me know what you think!

Halloween 2011 Pictures

Happy Halloween everyone! I finally got pictures posted from Saturday night... unfortunately it was easier to post them on Facebook than to try to use the old way I used to use (See link above). Anyway I hope you enjoy. As always if you don't want your picture up please let me know so that I can delete it.

System47 Star Trek Screen Saver

Okay I can't mention FREE software without mentioning one of my all time favorite Star Trek screen savers... by meWHO.com The System47 screensaver is a Flash based screen saver that will make your computer look and sound like the LCARS computer system from Stark Trek: TNG (and of course DS9 and Voyager). Please Note though that for some reason evertime Adobe Flash updates you will need to re-install it... I had found a work around that had seemed to work for a while then quit.... Anyway enjoy!

Piriform - Download CCleaner, Defraggler, Recuva, Speccy - Millions of users worldwide!

People sometimes ask me what software is good for this or that... over the course of using computers over the past several years and being a Technology Specialist I have come across several that I like... Mostly the FREE ones!

Currently while working on a friend's computer (which is where I'm writing from now while feeding her cat! lol) I installed and used a couple of the programs from Piriform. CCleaner does a great job of just cleaning up the computer; Defraggler seems to do a better job than the Windows default defragging program; Recuva does a good job of recovering deleted or corrupted files; and Speccy is just a simple program that will give you the Specifications of your computer. So check it out and let me know what you think!
