One man found out a few weeks ago that mixing technology and sweat is not a good combination. Reports claim a 20-year-old student known only as Wu opened his computer case to stop it from overheating but as his sweaty legs came into contact with the machine he electrocuted himself, delivering a deadly shock. Eastday.com reports the sweat triggered a shock of 380 volts.

Shocking!

There’s nothing I hate more than getting a virus on my computer or encountering a website while surfing that causes my system to crash. These things always seem to happen when you are in the middle of writing an email, or working on a document don’t they?

How often have you lost files that you’ve been working on and haven’t saved, or that were saved in the past, but were open for editing?

It would be great if you could easily recover files that were damaged by virus attack, accidental formating, or maybe ones that were in the recycle bin that you deleted by mistake?

Well … there is a program that can recover damaged or deleted files and folders. It’s called Active File Recovery, and it’s easy to use. You can also use the program to recover photographs and other media files, even those deleted from flash memory, or data that has been lost due to formating a memory card.

Not only is this program really easy to use, but it also acts as an efficient data recovery tool. The Active File Recovery Software Enterprise Installation package comes with a CD/DVD ISO image that you can burn in order to get a bootable DVD or CD with a lightweight version of windows Vista that will run in RAM.

So if your system crashes and you can’t get it to boot up you can just slip the DVD or CD into your system and you’ll be able to get it to boot. This will allow you to get into your computer and perhaps use system restore to return your system to a time when it was working properly, say before you installed a program that corrupted files on your computer.

Being able to boot your crashed system will also allow you to use the Active File Recovery program to check for damaged or deleted files as well. Perhaps simply recovering a file that you deleted or that was damaged before you system crashed will be all that’s needed to get your computer working properly again.

Another thing that I like about Active File Recovery is that you can also perform a Partition Recovery. So, if you have format damage to a partition, or you’ve had disk partition loss you can repair it with the professional version of Active File Recovery.

If you’d like to use this software for your business you can get a Corporate license. There are three versions of this program - Standard, professional and Enterprise with prices ranging from $29.95 to $99. Each product comes with free updates and technical support.

If you’d like to try before you buy you can download a demo copy of this program on the main page of the site. Check it out, it sounds like a great software program.

I don’t know if you’ve heard yet, but a new search engine will soon be launching. Megaglobe - New International Search Engine. Megagloge is spidering the web, collecting sites for it’s search engine. Naturally I listed all of our sites as soon as I visited MegaGlobe because I love being spidered! Hmmm that sounds kind of kinky doesn’t it?

After reading a few press releases for Megaglobe, I discovered that they plan to implement tools that will help put a stop to click fraud. It’s called “Zero Click Fraud” technology, and it will be able to detect false clicks. This will be beneficial to advertisers and websites that place pay per click types of advertising on their sites, because as you might know Google is having a huge problem with click fraud right now with it’s adsense products. MegaGlobe hopes to eliminate this type of fraud which will make pay per click advertising work so much better for website owners and advertisers alike.

When Megaglobe launches it will be available in 45 languages which means it will be able to service the whole world. I think this is going to be an amazing search engine as it will operate from over 300 individual country-specific URL’s, and it will be translated into hundreds of languages. Plus it will employ a unique and sophisticated algorithm to improve the quality of Internet searching. I think MegaGlobe could easily become a rival to Google if it turns out to be as good as it sounds in the press releases.

When Megaglobe launches I want to explore it. I just have a feeling that it’s going to be another great search engine. It looks like MegaGlobe will be offering some kind of ad system. I could be wrong about that though, I’m just guessing since it has developed the click fraud prevention coding. I’m not sure if will offer a way for website owners to make money on their websites through the use of their ads or if the ads will just be on the megaglobe pages. I definitely want to check into the ad system when MegaGlobe starts up. In the mean time why don’t you visit megaglobe and get your site listed too?

If you’ve been thinking of switching your landline telephone service over to Broadband Phone Service you might be very interested in taking a look at what ViaTalkhas to offer. ViaTalk offers VoIP telephone services in over 2,200 metro markets spanning all 50 states.

ViaTalk offers many of the services that you are used to receiving with your landline service and more. Features include enhanced voicemail, call hunt, call record, several types of caller ID, call forwarding, free in-network calling, call waiting and many other services that you can only get with a VoIP service.

At this time they are having a special- register now and get 6 months of free service. That sounds pretty good doesn’t it?

I took a look at some of the packages that they are offering and found that each of the plans offer “call anywhere in the US/Canada” from 500 minutes worth of calls per month to unlimitted, plus each plan offers voicemail, caller ID, call waiting, call return, e911 support plus a variety of other features. Package prices range from $9.95 to $35.95.

VoIP also known as Voice over Internet protocol, has really been taking off in the last year and I know several people who have switched their service over to broadband technology who are happy with the service and quality of the calls. It might be a great time to start checking into a service such as ViaTalk if you’ve been thinking of switching your service from a regular telephone network to an Internet phone service.
