Use A cell phone as a Laptop Modem
Now per my last blog I mentioned using future dial to connect a laptop or computer to the internet. This method now that I am mentioning here is using Bluetooth. The only thing is that it works with some blue tooth phones only. It really depends on the manufacture. Verizon wireless blocks most of it's Bluetooth services but they do sell a broadband kit for most of there phones that they sell.
If you do have a EV-DO capable phone well let's just say they all are equipped with modems and if you can find the proper cable for that phone to connect to your laptop or PC. You can easily get a internet connection speed of 464kps, exactly like getting a regular dialup connection. Hopefully free broadband will be someday available everywhere, but for now we have to use our available resources to get more for our money. Feel free to go a google search on using a cell phone modem.

There is no broadband war and most prices are just introductory offers that last only a few months before you do get a price increase.
Make sure to read the fine print and find out what you really pay after the introductory offer.

What's better Hard Drive vs Flash Memory
This fight goes back and forth. But you must admit that even though hard drives were are first preference, no one can beat a flash drive. Flash drives have gone through tough physical abuse and still are able to retrieve information that it held. So if your looking for portability and storage size. Check out flash drive prices before you move to hard drives. Also keep note that prices drop dramatically so be aware that a 1 gig flash drive is now under $25-.

Who wants to Rabble
I only wish they can do this for club goers and for live concerts. It's upsetting to get up, get dressed and be disappointed that things go wrong. At least if someone is letting you know what's going on. You will at least expect it and take the consequences before you decide to waste your money and time.
Hey why not do this for Traffic congestion in your own area - Rabble?
It's easy you sign up your cell phone and make a community service and have your friends do the same and everyone keeps updated on what's happening.

A Small World
Here is another wanna bee Dating site who said that in order for you to be a member you must have someone in the membership to invite you. Who knows what they are selling and where they are trying to go with this site. But it's been told that they have famous celebrities as Paris Hilton and Naomi Campbell. But who really cares about this site. You figure with high profile names this would make this community service famous, but it's not and never is going to be. It's just another wanna bee myspace and wishes it had the red carpet treatment other site die to have.

Attn: All Bellsouth DSL Customers
I recently have been keeping an eye on my current DSL subscription to find the following:
For the price of which I am currently paying for DSL $42.95, I can upgrade my plan and save an extra $5.00 by getting more speed for my money. I not only double my download speed two twice the speed but increase my upload speed to 72 Kbps. So evaluate your DSL package once your passed your anniversary rate from time to time.
I am just upset that Bellsouth didn't automatically adjust my bill accordingly and give me a better rate for my money. It suppose to be that if you pay more you get more. But in Bellsouth case, you pay more and get less. Go figure.

Still Free - Amazing Stunt
I've seen crazy stuff in my life. But this guy sure wants to be famous quickly. Not only was he able to get this close to Air Force One since 9/11. But he was able to Tagg it. Which means that any crazy terrorist today can do the same thing and possibly take it a little further. I am upset that something like this can be over looked. I hope that this video will wake up security measures.

Windows Live OneCare
Windows Live OneCare is another way Microsoft hopes to make another buck out of consumers. It automates backups, updates, firewall, antivirus, and antispyware. It hopes to cash in on other after market software that has been in circulation for sometime. The nice thing is that since it's Microsoft, you can easily bet you'll have no worries on that it will interrupt it's current operating system.
