Step One

Once you have the image you want and have saved it to your computer, open your web browser and visit a site called What Font Is.

Step Two

Once at the site, upload the image you saved in step one, and be sure to select the right background color for the best possible chance of successful font identification.

Step Three

Once you click continue, simply follow the instructions by typing in each highlighted letter that you see. After clicking continue for the last time, your results will appear in the window. Once you’ve found the site that offers your desired font for download, you can bookmark it or install the font to save you tons of time in searching online when you need it next time.

Different Computers, Different Functions

The major difference between Mac and Windows PC remains the same: Windows computers are still best for office-based functions like spreadsheets and word processing, while Macs remain the leader if you need a computer for creating, editing or producing several different types of media.

Windows can now be installed onto Macs, much to the delight of gamers who, until now, haven’t been able to play computer video games on these systems.

The Look

If looks were your main concern, a Mac historically would win this argument hands-down with its sleeker and shinier design. But many of today’s PCs are following the pretty trend with the production of machines that are both highly functional as well as pleasing to the eye.

Find

This feature allows you to search for words and phrases in a web page. While this may not seem very interesting at the outset, it can really be of help if you need to find what you’re looking for and the web page containing that information is very long. To use the Find tool, just access the tools menu and choose “Find”. A search box will appear that will allow you to move between words and phrases on a web page using your arrow keys.

Sync

Sync allows multiple computers having Chrome installed with Google accounts to communicate with each other. Users can sync pretty much anything, from apps to themes. Getting started begins with accessing the Tools menu in Chrome, and then choosing Preferences or Settings. Choosing Personal Stuff and then ‘Set Up Sync’ will get you started. Remember that this process will have to be followed for each computer you wish to sync.

Google Safe Browsing

This tool can be used with both Google Chrome and Firefox browsers. Simply navigate to http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?site=http://your site URL here.com/, and a report will be generated which includes the following information:

- The last time Google analyzed your page

- Your site’s current listing status

- When your site was last listed as malicious

- The type or types of malware Google encountered

Because it’s so easy to do, web site owners can visit at any time to ensure that their site is safe. Doing so will allow traffic to continue to flow to your site at its current rate, which can mean less downtime and more exposure for your place on the web.

Computer Monitors And Peripherals

If your current monitor and other peripherals are working fine, there may be no need to spend the extra money to buy them brand new. If you absolutely must have the latest monitor and printer tech, consider getting a little bit of money back by selling your old stuff online at a site like Kijiji.

Reconsider The Rebate

If one of the reasons you’re getting a new computer is because of a great rebate offer you saw, you should know that sometimes, rebates are offered on computers which a company plans to discontinue, which means that the tech you end up getting could very soon be out of date. As well, some companies will try to pretty up the package by including a number of free extras. Much of the time, those extras can be of poor quality and aren’t something you will end up using.

But tweeting to random accounts will do little for you except get your account suspended. So how do you break the ice with the Twitterverse and get yourself noticed?

Think About Your Goals

What is the end goal of having a Twitter account? Do you want to educate people? Inspire them in some way? Get them to purchase your products or services? Whatever it is, your tweets should reflect your goals. Make your business Twitter account about business. If you have a specific interest, seek out others with the same interests and ask them questions to get the ball rolling.

Tell Them Who You Are

Your bio is the only way people can identify you and decide whether or not to follow you. So why not use it to its full potential? Think about what a stranger might want to know about you, and then include that information.

Say Cheese

The numbers are true; add a photo, build trust and credibility. It’s been proven that those who include a photo on their Twitter account gain more followers than those who don’t. A personal account will be complemented nicely with a photo of you smiling. For business accounts, your logo, whether it be for your product, service or web site, will help keep you in the forefront of the minds of other tweeters.

iCam

The iCam app, costing just $5, offers a host of features, including motion detection and audio streaming. The download is two-fold; you will have to install iCam Source onto your computer, and then get the iCam app for your iOS or Android device.

Useful Tips

You will need to create a username and password that you can remember, but that you’re sure no one else you know will be able to figure out. You will also need to ensure that the device which you are using for your surveillance camera is turned on at all times.

Access to your computer’s firewall is also required, so be sure to allow iCam that access if you are prompted to do so. To view your camera or cameras, simply log into iCam with the username and password you created when you installed iCam Source onto your computer.

Avoid Excessive Horn Blowing

Constantly self-promoting your business will only cause you to lose followers. Remember the point behind social networking, which is to create loyalty, friendship and community. If you wouldn’t jump on a customer with all of your promotions when they walk through your physical door, then why do it on Facebook?

Use The Present Tense

If you’re posting when you have a few free minutes, such as in the morning or when your work is done at night, then your Facebook fans are missing out on the most exciting moments of your business’s day. Instead of always telling them about what happened already, or what is going to happen, try giving them updates throughout the day as events occur. This will make them feel like they are important enough to keep in the loop.

Share Other Content

Your Facebook page can’t just be all about you. So why not educate and inform your fans by posting content from around the web that have to do with your business? It could be a funny video you saw, stories, or customer comments.

Paper Jams And Your Magic Manual

Believe it or not, the way you clear a paper jam in your printer is very important. Yanking the paper quickly out of frustration can actually cause damage to the internal workings of your printer. Before you clear that paper jam, consult your printer’s manual for any specific information, such as how to reach jammed paper and how jammed sheets should be removed in one piece.

Poor Print Quality

If you recently got a bunch of printer paper on sale, but are now experiencing inferior print quality, chances are it’s the paper weight you are using. Different paper weight can cause your printer’s rollers to adjust differently when pulling paper through, and can also affect how certain types of printers distribute the ink.

You may have needed different settings the last time you printed something. For example, if the last thing you printed was a document, you may have set the printer to use its ‘economy’ setting, which will put much less ink on the page.

Sharepod

Sharepod is a free app which allows you to rename, copy, transfer and manage all of your music. Once downloaded, the app can make it easier than ever to keep your .mp3 folders neat. Before using the app, however, it’s recommended that iTunes be closed if it’s open.

Managing Your Music

Once inside Sharepod, all you have to do is select the tracks you want to copy from the list that appears in the first window that opens. After your desired music has been selected, look to the top left of the window and choose “Copy to PC”. Choose a destination folder, and click OK.

In copying your files with this tool, the result will be music transferred with no alterations to file names, and the same playability on your PC that you enjoyed on your iPod.

Cassette tapes were all the rage thirty years ago, but the way in which they’re constructed can mean degradation of the information recorded onto the tape over time and with exposure to light and other elements. There are a few ways to transfer precious cassette tape recordings to your computer or to a CD.
Find A Free Recording Program
If your sound card does not have recording software already installed, you will need to find a program to do this. Many of these can be found for free with a free search. Audacity is one example of a free program which has the features you will need to transfer cassette recordings to your computer.

Dust Off That Old Cassette Player
Believe it or not, you can connect a cassette player to your computer. All you need is a cable that will plug into the back of the cassette player through its RCA output, and into the back of your computer’s sound card with a small stereo plug. If you have to plug the cable into your computer’s head phone or microphone jack, ensure that the sound is turned down all the way to avoid overloading your sound card.

Adjust The Input Volume
The input volume can be adjusted by going to your Control Panel, and then to Sound, Sounds and Audio Devices or Sounds and Multimedia, depending on the operating system you’re using. Click the Recording tab, select the Line In device, and then choose Properties to set your recording volume.

Important Information In Case Of Theft
As soon as you purchase your phone, locate its hardware information. This can be done by either looking under the phone’s battery. You can also get this information by installing the software that most likely came with the purchase of your phone. Once you connect your phone to your computer, the software will be initiated, and you can record your phone’s information for storage in a safe place in case of theft.

Reporting Harrassment
The best place to look for advice on how to report harassment via your cell phone is to visit your carrier’s web site for the appropriate steps to take. You may discover that your carrier has measures in place, such as phone number monitoring, to track abusive calls and messages. But even if they do, it’s a good idea to keep records of these messages yourself. Voice mails and messages can be saved onto your computer by connecting your phone to it, finding the device in Windows Explorer, and then dragging and dropping individual files into a folder you’ve specified.

The Signal Booster

These devices work in conjunction with an aircard to intensify your internet signal. They do cost a moderate amount of up-front – up to $400 – but they can improve all kinds of cellular signals. Boosters are essentially antennas that are mounted on the outside of the home and then connected indoors to a receiver.

The Repurposed Booster

Another solution could be to use a booster in a different way. For example, you could purchase a booster made specifically to boost the cell phone signal in a vehicle for home use. These types of boosters can work well with MiFi systems, and can come in at a lot less than boosters designed for home use. However, you will need to be aware that most only work over 3G connections.

But there are a few things to consider when you’re searching for ways to recover your files:

- The chances of recovery are quite good if your storage device isn’t damaged;

- How effective recovery attempts will be will depend on how many times you’ve written new information to your device since you noticed your missing files.

Unfortunately, any time you add new music to your device could result in the overwriting of the files that were previously on it. But if you haven’t yet stored any new music on your device since you noticed missing files, then don’t do so until you’ve taken steps to recover your data.

Computer Search

If you’re like many music lovers, you have a copy of your music stored on your computer. So before you panic, check your computer’s Recycle Bin to see if your missing files are there. If they are, simply right click on the desired items and choose “Restore”.

Windows Media Player

You can also use Windows Media Player to conduct a search for all of the music files that are currently on your computer. When you’ve opened the program, simply ensure that you’ve clicked the “Library” tab. This will get you a list of all of the songs on your computer. If you see your files there, right click on each and choose “Open file location”. Then, simply retrieve your files.
