Αναθεωρήσεις

Το ShellEnhancer είναι ένα μεγάλο μικρό (ελεύθερο) πρόγραμμα που βελτιώνει σημαντικά (εάν τίποτα άλλο) το ενδιάμεσο με τον χρήστη παραθύρων. Συνεχίστε για μια επισκόπηση μερικά από τα χαρακτηριστικά γνωρίσματά του… [κρότος για να συνεχιστεί…]

Γεια digg επισκέπτες. Έχω κινηθεί πρόσφατα από την κοινή φιλοξενία προς την αφιερωμένη φιλοξενία, και θα φαινόταν ότι επέλεξα έναν κεντρικό υπολογιστή που δεν έχει αρκετή μνήμη και μια γρήγορα αρκετή ΚΜΕ. Θα αναβαθμίζω αργότερα αυτό το Σαββατοκύριακο. Θλιβερός για το inconvience, σας βεβαιώνω αυτό με ματαιώνω περισσότερο από σας

Τον Οκτώβριο του περασμένου χρόνου έγραψα 15 εναλλακτικές λύσεις εξερευνητών παραθύρων συγκρινόμενες και που αναθεωρούνται - όποιος ήταν αρκετά δημοφιλής. Σε αυτήν την ημέρα παίρνω τους ανθρώπους που στέλνουν μήνυμα με το ηλεκτρονικό ταχυδρομείο με ή που αφήνουν τα σχόλια στην αρχική μετα υποβολή προτάσεων εγώ δοκιμάζω άλλες εναλλακτικές λύσεις εξερευνητών παραθύρων/διευθυντών αρχείων. Τόσο εδώ είναι μια συγκέντρωση 10 άλλων εναλλακτικών λύσεων που έχουν προταθεί από τότε σε με.

Σας έχει Googled το όνομά σας πρόσφατα; Όχι εξ ολοκλήρου ευχαριστημένος από τα αποτελέσματα; Αυτή η αναθεώρηση/η επισκόπηση/το σεμινάριο θα σας βοηθήσουν να αλλάξετε τον τρόπο με τον οποίο αντιπροσωπεύεστε on-line.

There are a lot of reasons you may want to alter what comes up when people search for your name. Most likely, you’re about to enter the workforce and you don’t need recruiters and/or an HR rep. looking at your drunken antics on MySpace. The following tips and free-services can help change those Google search results to something you’re a little more proud of.

Update: OK the 10 invites are gone. As soon as I get some more I’ll offer them up here again.

If you’re looking for someone to test it on/with, my user is: rossmckillop

Thanks to a kind user at Mashable, I now have a Pownce account. Though I gave away my first 6 invites to folks @ the same Mashable thread (hey I’m not going to mess with karma) I now have an additional 10 invites. Keep reading for a (very) quick Pownce overview, or leave a comment if you’d like an invite. [click to continue...]

Note: the following is not a paid review. I was approached by the folks at Answers That Work to review The Ultimate Troubleshooter. I did accept a licensed copy of the software in order to complete the following review.

What: ATW claims “The Ultimate Troubleshooter is PC healthcare, PC repair, PC tuning, and PC maintenance in Plain English” - and I won’t dispute that one bit. [click to continue...]

TweakVI is an application that allows you to tweak, optimize and/or change hundreds of the ‘hidden’ features of Windows Vista. It comes in 3 flavors - Basic (free), Premium ($29.99 USD) and Ultimate ($39.99 USD). This review/tutorial will focus on the free version. Keep reading to see some of the changes that I found most useful/helpful. [click to continue...]

Now that almost everyone knows what RSS is, I figured I’d review a few of the ways you can read RSS feeds. With a heavy emphasis on cross-platform and/or open source, here are 20 (albeit somewhat brief) reviews of the free RSS readers available. Links to download, screenshots and system requirements are included with every review.

The following is a paid review: The following was supposed to be a paid review, but ReviewMe dot com didn’t pay out as they were supposed to.

When submitting the review I received the following error:

Please ensure that you have provided the link text in your post EXACTLY as shown: <a href=”http://www.apogee-search.com”>Search Engine Marketing</a>

Which, as you can see, I not only did - but I did it in the very first sentence. After four emails to ReviewMe, none of which were responded to, I suspect I will never be paid. I’m leaving the review up anyway as Apogee went out of their way to respond to my questions, and I still believe they provide a useful service.

Founded in 2001, Apogee Search is one of the largest Search Engine Marketing service firms in the US. If you spend money to buy search terms/ads, Apogee Search can help you spend your money more effectively - by understanding that click-throughs on a website mean nothing unless they lead directly to sales.
