Website of the Week

Editor Rhiannon says "Over the years, whenever I've needed to know something about computer hardware, Tom's Hardware is my first stop. Curious about the best wireless router? Tom's Hardware will have tested and reviewed several routers and a includes chart with the results if for some reason you don't want to read the reviews. Aside from being an awesome site, the community there is enthusiastic and knowledgeable."

Worried About Clicking On A Bit.Ly Link? Follow This Tip.

URLs are getting longer. Sometimes, the address of a web page can run to hundreds of characters, large chunks of which are meaningless strings of random numbers and letters. <br/><br/>Such URLs are impossible to type, when you're following a link in a printed document. And even if you're including them on a web page for someone to click on, their sheer length makes the page look messy. Which is why many web sites, including this one, have started using the services of URL-shortening sites such as Bitly.<br/><br/>But here's the problem. How do you know where the shortened link is going to take you, if you can only see the shortened version in your browser and not the full unexpurgated version? In the case of Bitly, specifically, the answer is simple.<br/><br/><br/>http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/worried-about-clicking-bitly-link-follow-tip.htm<div class="feedflare"><br/><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/gizmosbest?a=57T3McmwDR4:GVs4rwzm1ok:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/gizmosbest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/gizmosbest?a=57T3McmwDR4:GVs4rwzm1ok:qj6IDK7rITs"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/gizmosbest?d=qj6IDK7rITs"></img></a><br/></div><img height="1" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/gizmosbest/~4/57T3McmwDR4" width="1"/><br/><a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/gizmosbest/~3/57T3McmwDR4/worried-about-clicking-bitly-link-follow-tip.htm" rel="nofollow">Gizmo's Freeware: Top selections</a>

Collaborative Online Sticky Notes. A Great Brainstorming Platform.

Sticky notes programs that allow you to brainstorm an idea by moving notes around on screen are nothing new. Online systems that allow you to do the same thing without installing a program on your PC are common. But Stormboard takes the concept to a new level, by adding real-time collaboration.<br/><br/>You can share note boards across the internet, and each participant can move notes, add new ones, make comments, and so on. It's a great way to discuss a new idea. And once you're done, you can save the resulting board as an image, PDF file or spreadsheet. Accounts for use with up to 5 people at a time are free to set up.<br/><br/><br/>http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/collaborative-online-sticky-notes-great-brainstorming-platform.htm<div class="feedflare"><br/><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/gizmosbest?a=O1mKrUP7vyk:9KzIszpIjmg:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/gizmosbest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/gizmosbest?a=O1mKrUP7vyk:9KzIszpIjmg:qj6IDK7rITs"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/gizmosbest?d=qj6IDK7rITs"></img></a><br/></div><img height="1" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/gizmosbest/~4/O1mKrUP7vyk" width="1"/><br/><a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/gizmosbest/~3/O1mKrUP7vyk/collaborative-online-sticky-notes-great-brainstorming-platform.htm" rel="nofollow">Gizmo's Freeware: Top selections</a>

But for a change, here's a brand new web-based system that can do the same thing, without the need to install any software on your computer. <br/><br/>One downside, though, is that you really need a Facebook or Twitter account to make use of the system.

Want 100GB Of Free Cloud-Based Storage?

A new player in the cloud storage market is offering 100 GB of space to the first million people to sign up to its service. To sign up, just head to www.zoolz.com and follow the instructions. However, there's clearly a waiting list for the service, so you won't get your free space right away. <br/><br/>Is it any good? Will the service work properly? We don't know yet. But it seems sensible to sign up now, just in case it does turn out to be excellent. You have nothing to lose.

What to Do with a Hung or Unresponsive Windows 7 Program

Sooner or later it happens to all of us, a Windows program gets hung up and just sits there frozen. You can open Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc) and try to close the hung program or use the command line to kill it (see this link). But sometimes you might want to see if you can find out why the program got hung up in the first place or you may want to try to unfreeze it.

Amazon Launches Sneaky Rival To Dropbox

A few months ago, Amazon launched a cloud-based storage system. It scored a point over market leading Dropbox by offering 5 GB of free storage, but there was no desktop client application available. You had to access your storage via your web browser. As of today, though, that's no longer the case. Amazon Cloud Drive now has a desktop app, which effectively means that Amazon's service works almost identically to Dropbox. <br/><br/><br/>http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/amazon-launches-sneaky-rival-dropbox.htm<div class="feedflare"><br/><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/gizmosbest?a=nLX4ObGGq5c:PrzDrz_fWXQ:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/gizmosbest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/gizmosbest?a=nLX4ObGGq5c:PrzDrz_fWXQ:qj6IDK7rITs"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/gizmosbest?d=qj6IDK7rITs"></img></a><br/></div><img height="1" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/gizmosbest/~4/nLX4ObGGq5c" width="1"/><br/><a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/gizmosbest/~3/nLX4ObGGq5c/amazon-launches-sneaky-rival-dropbox.htm" rel="nofollow">Gizmo's Freeware: Top selections</a>

NEW: Best Free Windows 8 Start Menu Replacement

One of the most controversial things about Windows 8 is the missing Start button and Start menu. After relying on the Start menu through one version of Windows after another, PC users have found themselves floundering around in Windows 8 trying to find where everything is. It doesn't help that Windows 8 boots up to a new Start Screen filled with big tiles while the previous Desktop interface is now treated as just another app.<br/><br/>It didn't take long for software developers to jump in and begin turning out programs that restore the Start menu and get you to the Desktop right away. By now there are a large number of Start menu replacements.
