How to Turn Your Home Phone Into a VoIP Phone Easily to Make Cheap Local and International Calls
Posted by Costas Kariolis in Computers and Technology on 05/17/2010
People love to talk to each other. The invention of the telephone has been the single biggest factor in shrinking our world and letting us stay in touch with loved ones, whether they live just across town or on the other side of the globe. Now, thanks to the Internet and modern technology, talking to our friends, family and even business associates has become easier and cheaper than ever.
VoIP – the Next Generation in Telephony
Whereas most people think that VoIP is only useful for business users, it is in fact just as useful for domestic customers. With a PC and Internet connection in almost every home now, the technology infrastructure exists to provide domestic customers with access to the very latest in cutting edge telephony tech. A VoIP phone utilises your broadband connection to send data ‘packets’ through your Internet connection, rather than using the traditional landline. This means that international calls are as easy to make as dialling a local number – and much, much cheaper. Voice clarity is as good as a local call too, with none of the crackle or ‘delay’ that you get on analogue phone systems.
How to Get VoIP at Home
Setting up a VoIP phone at home is simplicity itself. If you regularly make calls to a particular destination such as the USA, Canada or Pakistan, you can included these locations in your call plan, as well as local calls and some calls to mobile numbers. Your VoIP supplier will be able to talk you through the options available, and the beauty of VoIP call plans is their flexibility, allowing you to change your call plan package as your needs alter.
As long as you have a good broadband connection of the right minimum speed, it is then simply a matter of incorporating a router and VoIP handset into your existing Internet connection, or, if you want to keep your original handset, fitting an adapter. If you opt for a call plan package, your VoIP provider will often provide routers, handsets or adapters as part of the package or at a reduced rate.
Once your system has been set up, you can then make calls as you would with a normal landline based system. The difference, however, becomes apparent when you realise how much money you are saving if you make regular international calls. Instead of a hefty phone bill putting a dent in your budget every month, you pay a simple monthly fee and benefit from cheap international calls.
If you run a business from home, the savings you can make by switching to VoIP could make a real difference to your profit margins. By using an IP phone instead of your usual landline connection, you can communicate as easily with customers and contacts abroad as you do with a client who lives just down the road. It also shows your international contacts that you are serious about doing business on a global scale, enhancing your business reputation both at home and abroad.
VoIP really is the next generation in telephony. Utilising the best in modern technology, VoIP allows you to make cheap international calls easily and without worrying about the cost. For people who love to talk personally to friends and relatives thousands of miles away, VoIP offers you the opportunity to simply pick up the phone and chat whenever you want to.

Why a TV Screen Protector is a Worthwhile Investment
Posted by Mark Thomas Walters in Computers and Technology on 05/16/2010
A TV screen protector is a piece of equipment that protects TV screens from scratches and cracks. There are many different ones available, but they all do basically the same thing and achieve the desired result for the consumer. They are all made from the same optical grade acrylic. These pieces of acrylic are then cut and molded to fit the size of most TV screens. They are attached to your TV screen using simple Velcro straps and use small rubber or felt pads to rest against the frame of the TV. Surprisingly, once attached, they are almost invisible, though some lighting conditions may cause an undesired reflection. Still, you can get around this problem by using an anti-glare solution. It results in a little extra hassle but it is definitely worth it in order to keep your TV safe from damage.
Now, here are some common questions and the answers to them…
- What is a TV screen protector made of? They are made using a special type of acrylic (optical grade. Optical grade acrylic is very impressive stuff, as it is scratch resistant, anti-glare and anti-reflective. The newer acrylic materials being used in these products was developed by NASA and is also used in the automobile industry. The stuff is strong and reliable. It provides more than enough protection for your expensive television.
- How does the TV screen protector attach to the TV? Currently, all TV screen protectors on the market use Velcro straps as their method of attachment. They also have rubber or felt tabs that rest against the frame around your screen. These act as shock absorbers and take the brunt of the force when the screen cover is jarred. They are very effective and work to absorb the shock or force when something hits the screen.
- What sort of damage do TV screen protectors protect against? They protect against pets, toddlers who like drawing on things, kids who throw things, clumsy and inattentive adults, and other types of accidental contact. Remember, if you purchased a warranty, it probably does not cover you against damage caused in the aforementioned ways.
- Who makes these products? There are 3 a few major providers or brands of TV screen protectors on the market. The only significant difference between them are slight variations in the way the Velcro straps attach to the acrylic TV screen protector and the thickness of the TV screen protector itself. Remember, the thinner the acrylic used, the more flex will be present in the TV Screen Protector. You want as little flex as possible, so go for a thick TV screen protector.
- Are they worth the money? You need to make a decision, knowing how many accidents happen in your house, if it is worth the risk. Thousands of TV screens get broken every month- yours could be next. So, the real question is whether you think it worthwhile to spend less than a $100 to protect a $1000 piece of equipment.
The author is the owner of a TV Screen Protector company called TV Armor, located at www.TV-Armor.com. Thousands of LCD and LED TV screens are lost each day to accidental contact with the screen. Pick up a TV Protector before it happens to you. Stop worrying about your TV and start enjoying it. Protect Your TV!
Wireless Computing on the Go
Posted by Alison Brundle in Computers and Technology on 05/16/2010
Wi-Fi was probably one of the most revolutionary transitions in modern times. Before the advent of Wi-Fi or wireless computing technology, users were tethered to their desks, routing everything through a LAN line and restricted in where they used their faster and more powerful computing technology by how long their cables were. Wi-Fi changed all that. Suddenly, you had a mobile network that allowed people the freedom to roam and still connect to the Internet and their emails.
A Sociological Transformation
It is easy to underestimate the impact of wireless computing. It has become a common sight to see cafes full of people all connected up to a server, yet not a cable in sight. An entire business has grown up around wireless computing – the Internet cafe – that lets anyone, for a small charge, piggyback the establishment’s Wi-Fi connection and surf to their hearts content. It is even possible to connect wirelessly using a mobile phone – a situation that would have been unthinkable 25 years ago when you were lucky if you could connect to another phone number using the first mobile ‘bricks’, let along the fledgling Internet.
It has released the constraints of an old system of doing business. But how does wireless computing actually work?
There are two types of what has become known as ‘wireless’ Internet – either connection through a router (your standard Wi-Fi) or through the mobile phone network. Wireless routers are the most common form of land based system, and are fundamentally a small connection box that allows a signal to be shared between several computers. Basically, computers ‘tap in’ to the signal, which can be made even easier by adding a wireless interface card. These usually come as standard with most new laptops, but can be bought as a separate add-on. USB routers and dongles also give anyone the power to be able to tap into any wireless signal, creating their own ‘access points’ through which the computer can send and receive network data.
Another key component of wireless computing is the actual hardware itself, namely the laptop. There is some contention as to who actually invented the concept of the laptop, but most cite Adam Osborne as the originator of the modern day laptop in 1981, although the ‘clam-shell’ design was attributed to William Moggridge and developed for GRiD Systems Corporation in 1979. It is difficult now to imagine life without laptops, yet it has only been a little over 30 years since their original conception. But probably the biggest influence on wireless computing was the development of WAP for mobile phones, allowing anyone to connect to the Internet using their mobile phone technology. Today, we feel short-changed if our mobile phone can’t connect to the Internet on demand, 24/7.
What future for wireless computing?
The question of wireless computing’s future is uncertain. Many believe that wireless computing has reached its full potential – we now have almost universal coverage thanks to a global satellite system creating a web across the world with very few ‘blind spots’. Smart phones are feature-rich and future-proofed to a certain extent, and laptops are smaller, lighter and more processor powerful than ever. The only area that can really see any form of development to enhance wireless computing is in the field of battery-life. The most up to date laptops and Netbooks can achieve up to nine hours on one battery, but after that you are still forced to tether up to a power source to keep your laptop running – hardly a ‘wireless’ situation by any stretch of the imagination. So for wireless computing to move to a new level and give us true autonomy and control about where and when we use our computers, manufacturers have to address the knotty problem of that infuriating ‘low battery’ symbol. Perhaps then we’ll have truly wireless computing on the go

The Advantages of Using Windows 7 on New Laptops
Posted by Alison Brundle in Computers and Technology on 05/16/2010
Windows 7 was launched in a blaze of publicity, advertising a more ‘user-friendly’ system than its predecessor Vista. But many people found Vista and even XP more than adequate for their needs, so if you’re in the market for a new laptop, why should you think about buying one with the new Windows 7 operating system, rather than the tried and tested Vista or XP?
Future-proofing
Future-proofing is the new buzzword in technology. One of the most frustrating things for people using older machines or operating systems is the incompatibility problems that arise with the latest software systems. Microsoft have invested a huge amount of money and time developing Windows 7, which is why there has been such a delay between the launch of Vista and this latest upgrade. Because of the ‘understanding’ that many manufacturers who use Microsoft have with the company, the launch of Windows 7 is bound to herald a flurry of upgraded laptops designed to use Windows 7 as its primary operating system. So buying a laptop that has Vista or XP rather than Windows 7 could mean that future software designed to run on Windows 7 won’t run on Vista or XP operating systems.
However, if you only intend to use a laptop for web surfing, downloading media, emails and office documents such as Word or Excel, an older operating system could be just as effective as Windows 7. But with the wealth of new features available on Windows 7, it might be worth considering future-proofing yourself from the outset.
Upgrading – not Exactly Easy…
One of the biggest problems with upgrading is the limit imposed by the operating systems on just how easily you can upgrade to Windows 7 without having to do a clean install. That means wiping your hard drive and basically starting again. For Netbook users this presents a huge problem, as many Netbooks do not have CD ROMS, and to do a fresh install you need to be able to slot that operating system CD ROM into the computer.
To avoid all the hassle of clean installs, wiping your hard drive and future-proofing yourself against future upgrades, it’s wiser to start with Windows 7 as your standard operating system.
Security – a New Level
One of the biggest worries for laptop users is the security aspect. Because of their portability, laptops are an easy target for unscrupulous hackers, opportunist thieves or even industrial espionage. One of the primary new features on Windows 7 is an improved level of security, something that’ll make any laptop owner sleep a little better at night.
Windows 7 also offers better taskbar features, an improved version of Windows Explorer to make surfing the ‘Net easier and quicker and interface shortcuts that make it possible to run two applications side by side. For laptop owners with the advantage of dual core processing power, Windows 7 is tailor-made for laptop use. Microsoft have played it clever – they know full well that the market for laptops is a growing one, and Windows 7 is designed to grow with that market in tandem. By incorporating ideas that users actually want in an operating system, it may be some time before we see W8. So if you are thinking about buying a new laptop, it makes sense to get one with Windows 7 rather than the now considerably dated and troublesome Vista operating system.

How to Upgrade Your Laptop
Posted by Alison Brundle in Computers and Technology on 05/16/2010
Anyone into their technology has messed around with a computer at some stage. Desktop PCs, thanks to their size and design, are ideal for upgrading – new graphics boards, an upgraded motherboard or even something as simple as a flat screen rather than the traditional box. But laptops are a whole other story. Compact microcircuitry dissuades everyone but the most technologically savvy from undoing those screws and opening ‘Pandora’s Laptop’. Slotting in a new graphics or sound card into a laptop is not a simple matter of taking the case off and tricking up the insides of the computer. But there are things you can do to upgrade your laptop that don’t involve a degree in electronic engineering and a very steady hand with a soldering iron.
RAM – Giving your Laptop a Better Memory
Almost every laptop can be given a RAM upgrade, simply by opening a compartment on the bottom of the laptop and inserting a new memory stick. However, before buying a new stick of RAM, it is strongly advisable to check the manufacturer’s guidelines. Many manufacturers make RAM sticks for their own computers, but it is possible to buy ‘generic’ sticks that can fit a range of laptops. If you are unsure as to whether your memory stick is suitable for your laptop, check with the manufacturer.
Processor Power
Upgrading the processor is something that should be thought about carefully before you attempt it. Most modern laptops run dual-core processors, which have enough processing power to run almost any application, including processor-hungry ones like games and graphics programs. It is worth weighing up the cost and time involved in upgrading the processor against the net gain this would achieve. In most cases, the gain will be negligible, and as laptops use microcircuitry to cut down on weight and size, replacing the processor could be described as ‘fiddly’ at best!
Hard Disks
The internal hard disk of a computer is the beating heart of any machine, whether that’s a laptop or a desktop PC. While it is relatively easy to replace the hard disk on a PC, laptops are trickier. In laptops that do allow you to replace the hard disk, it is a relatively straightforward process, though again because of the constraints of size, a pretty fiddly job to do. A better option may be to go for an external hard drive to increase the capacity of your machine such as Firewire or USB drives. Although this might make your laptop bag bulge a little, it’s a cheaper and easier option.
That ‘b’ Word…
Batteries. The bane of all laptop owner’s lives. It is probably the one thing that everyone with a laptop will upgrade at some time, as batteries do have a finite lifespan (as in the number of times that they can be recharged and still hold enough charge to run your laptop for more than half an hour). The advice here is to ensure that any new battery you buy for your laptop is compatible with the manufacturer’s recommendations.
More of a Repair than an Upgrade
The other problem encountered by laptop owners on a regular basis is the ‘blank screen’. The laptop boots up but you’re left staring at a black screen. This usually means that the inverter has failed – one of laptops biggest generic weak spots. Inverters can be relatively easily replaced, but again, check with your manufacturer’s guidelines to ensure that you are buying the right inverter for your make and model.
Finally, consider that any upgrades you carry out on a new laptop may invalidate any manufacturer’s warranty, so check carefully before you start tricking up your laptop.

The R4 DS Card Bring NDS Homebrew Game Lemmings to Your NDS
Posted by Stan Sulemann in Computers and Technology on 05/16/2010
With the R4 DS Card you’re going to heighten your gaming experience on your Nintendo DS. And what does an R4 Card let you play? It grants you access to hundreds, if not thousands of games accessible for free online. Games by home based game developers have been around since the days of computer gaming. But it needed the R4 Card for the DSi to bring it home to the Nintendo DS. A lot of the games are remakes of retro classics we all recognize and know. The stunning thing is, they’re produced by homebrew / recreational computer programmers and are available to you with simply a click of your mouse and for free from the net. And all you have to have is your Nintendo DS or DSi and your R4 Card ready and waiting to download and make them available so you can enjoy them absolutely free.
One of my favorite R4 DS Card games is the very hot Lemmings DS. Made by an R4 Card owner and amateur coder. The quality of this game is easily at par with umpteen commerically published games for the DS and DSi. And that’s what makes it so astonishing. It is because these homebrew games are of such utmost quality that people are flocking to the R4 Card and taking advantage of what it has to offer in terms of homebrew play and likewise, developing your own Nintendo DS homebrew games.
This game was originally released for home computers back in the Amiga days. First for the Amiga 500 and then after it was ported over to the commodore 64 as well as the PC. Truly one of the best old school classic mind bender game to come along at that time. Popular enough that it was later ported to the SNES console as well. And thanks to the hard work of committed game creators, you’re able to play it on your Nintendo DS or DSi with an R4 DS Card.
In Lemmings, your job in each level is to maneuver your Lemmings to the exit with the least amount of casualties by accommodating them from their cave or cavern and bringing them to the exit. This is done by way of digging, blowing things up, climbing, and constructing bridges. There are loads of tools at your disposal, and in some super unusual cases, you may have to sacrifice a Lemming or two as you try to dig or climb your way to the exit on the screen.
Every level becomes increasingly tougher, with more Lemmings having to be protected in order to solve a particular level. While some of the Lemmings are disposable, most of your Lemmings have to make it out safely – and alive, in order for you to progress to the next level, which then gets harder to complete.
It’s a fun and funny game. With some of the skills of the Lemmings – all of them that you put them up to – having you laugh like crazy. The game is a mix between puzzle game – action game, and strategy game, because you must have an exact strategy how you’ll go past the roadblocks to get your lemmings to the exit – and saving plenty of them alive and well to guarantee that you ramp up to the succeeding level.
The R4 Card translation of Lemmings for the DS incorporates every one of the original stages from the very first episode of the game, as well as the stages from Christmas Lemmings and Oh NO! More Lemmings as well. Thanks to the R4 DS Card you can experience all of these levels in one easy to play game.
Find our more about this and other NDS Homebrew games and how to play them with your R4 DS Card or R4i SDHC for the Nintendo DSi. If you like unique games that you can’t find in stores, then Nintendo DS Homebrew is for you. Find out more at http://www.ModChipStore.com/
The R4 DS Card Brings the Classic Warhawk to Nintendo DS
Posted by Stan Sulemann in Computers and Technology on 05/16/2010
The original Wakhawk was first released on the Commodore 64, Atari 8bit and other 8-bit computers in the mid 1980’s. WarHawk was a vertical scrolling shoot ‘em up game, a genre that was very popular back in the mid 1980’s and 1990’s. What made WarHawk stand out from the rest of the games released in the genre was the depth of the levels and gameplay. Unlike many shoot em up games of the time – which progressed expectedly and offered little more than more bad guys on the screen as you beat each level, WarHawk changed the background, added bigger bosses and various other elements that made you actually WANT to play and more forward.
Thanks again to the fine developers at Headsoft and our trusty R4 DS Card homebrew scene, WarHawk is now available for YOU to play absolutely FREE on your Nintendo DS or DSi with the R4 DS Card (R4i SDHC for the DSi owners). The gameplay is true to the original, and while not an exact carbon copy remake or update, it does retain the same graphical feel and the gameplay mechanics themselves are true to the original.
WarHawk was remade and released as an NDS Homebrew Game. Which means that if you own and R4 DS card, it is free to download and play – made that way by the developers, though I would think donations may be an option if you so choose.
One of the things that the homebrew developers at HeadSoft wanted to ensure was that they retained the same “retro” or “old school” feel to the game itself. I think they succeeded in every way. And to put all of this work into a game, for the sheer love and joy of creating (or in this case – recreating) a game and then giving it out to homebrew games at no cost is really something to be applauded.
As for the levels and difficulty in the game, the game has 16 normal levels and once you complete the 16 normal levels, another 16 “mental” levels become available. The developers have said that it is definitely worth it to finish all of the levels – especially the “mental” levels for the true end and credit sequence that they have created.
From the developers website – below are the game controls for Warhawk DS on the R4 DS card. Playing it is just like playing any NDS game you would buy in the store, but there are some really cool and neat firing modes.
‘Start’ is used from the title screen to start the game and also within the game to pause. During play, the D-Pad is used for movement and the ‘A’ button for firing. Firing has 3 modes. A single press will release 2 shots. Press and hold will fire a power shot (12 times the damage and destroys all bases in it’s line of fire) and during “power-up” mode, holding fire will shoot a continuous stream of 16 bullets. Power-up mode can be enabled after level 2. During these levels a small ship will drift down the screen, shooting this will release a power orb that when collected will enable power-up mode for a limited time. Crashing into the drop ship will have the same effect but lose a small amount of energy. Energy can be regained during a level only by destroying a meteor. These take 2 powered shots to kill. Pressing start during game play also offers the option to quit and return to the title screen.
All in all, Warhawk DS is a perfect example of the professional / commercial quality homebrew games you can download and have absolutely free. While I personally suggest some type of donations – give these game creators some form of thanks – so they’ll continue to make more of these great games – it is not in any way a requirement to download and play these games. All you really have to do is spend under $20.00 for an R4 DS Card and you are on the way to NDS homebrew heaven!
Find out more about the R4 DS Card, the R4i SDHC Card and other great nds homebrew games, and take advantage of everything your R4 DS Card can do to enable you to watch movies, listen to MP3, play amazing Homebrew games and more. Visit http://www.ModChipStore.com for more information.
Who is Been Calling My Wife? She Has Been…
Posted by Jonny Andrew in Computers and Technology on 05/16/2010
Who is been calling my wife? This was Henry’s burning question for almost a month. Thanks to reverse cell number check…he is back on his feet as before.
To identify what is often inexplicable – the phone number of the caller who continues disturbing you at all times of the day – even at late hours, a reverse cell number or reverse phone look-up is what you need!
What is a reverse cell number or reverse phone look-up? A reverse phone look-up can mark out telemarketing representatives and hoax callers’ phone numbers. Generally, all phone numbers can be traced through this uncomplicated, easy to use and efficient service. So worry not about tracking down those anonymous and strange callers, you just have to look through the list of the following services that will assist you to find a solution in your current time of dilemma:
1. Utilize Public Directories
If you want to know the true identity of that curious phone number that keeps on appearing on your home phone’s display, contact the concerned phone directories. By doing this, the name and personal details of this intrepid caller can probably be revealed to you.
Calls emanating from cell phones, on the other hand, are much more difficult to trace due to confidentiality reasons. Therefore, tracking a callers’ identity through public directories is not possible at this time in the United States or within Europe.
2. No Charge Look-up Services
Another alternative that may help you track and map out a phone number is through the use of free reverse phone look up websites which are accessible on the internet. Although complimentary look-up services can be an appropriate tool of assisting you in tracking out those numbers, they are not always accommodating since they are free and thus frequently outdated. Free look-up services are filled with a number of potential setbacks so taking the time to browse may be more trouble than it is worth. The database of a complimentary look-up services is rarely updated. And even if you do find what you think is the right number, sometimes it turns out not to be the case, which could potentially be embarrassing for you.
3. Compensated or Paid Searches – Your Best Alternative (Reverse Cell Number)
Compensated or paid look-up services are the highest in demand alternative if you are tracking out the location of a caller’s personal profile. The companies that offer up paid-for or compensated searches have the capacity to supply precise information about a caller’s number whoever it might be. And since they are compensated, they have the capability to update the latest information within their database.
This alternative reverse cell number check is certainly the best and most fitting tool to map out details of the mysterious and sometimes devious caller. You just have to be prepared to pay the price for the use of their services. Both landline and cell phones can be detected using this sort of service, so if its important for you to terminate the annoying calls (as it is to most of us!) then its also important you take out a subscription with a company that provides compensated or paid searches.
Jonny Andrew has been working behind the scene to bring the Reverse Cell Number check to millions of people around the world. This has proven time after time in the Reverse Phone Lookup industry.
The Joy of Getting a Free Motorola Droid
Posted by Jason Main in Computers and Technology on 05/16/2010
The Motorola Droid is one of the most sought-after phones among the vast choices of touchscreen phones in the world today. This is why many people are dreaming of getting a free Motorola Droid, although most of them are working harder in order to get one. Well, getting something for free is much, much better than working hard for it without any guarantee of getting one.
Here are some more reasons why people should do everything they can (legally, of course) to get a free Motorola Droid.
If the person is working hard, then he she should think of it as a reward for his sacrifices. Teenagers, who work twice as hard as the other students in their school, are the ones who have higher chances of getting a free Motorola Droid from their parents. It is not bad to request for such a phone as long as the student/teenager is responsible enough to take care of the phone, not to mention he deserves it for everything that he has done so far.
Others who might not be as lucky in requesting may opt to participate in different sites that run promos. Such sites might be the ones in cooperation with Motorola, so people should be on the watch for that. However, some sites may just run promos for the sake of promoting their site further, but these sites actually require either a purchase from their company or a set of purchases from their sponsors. This might not be a good idea especially if the person is trying to avoid spending some bucks. Besides, there is no guarantee of receiving such prize, so it might be a scam.
Moreover, some workplaces give free stuff to their employees. A worker who has been dreaming of a free Motorola Droid might want to wait for a slight to moderately high chances of getting it from the company. The ones that work with companies affiliated to Motorola and the ones that work in Motorola as well might have received their freebies.
Lastly, since it is for free, why shouldn’t the person do something in return instead? This might sound a bit unrealistic, but people usually get what they want in return when they help others in need. This does not mean that the person should expect for something in return every time they do a good deed, but they should be at least ready to help other people and be willing to spend for them if they want others to spend for them, too. After all, all good things come back naturally.
A free Motorola Droid might be a must-have item, but people should not always focus their goals with merely getting this new phone. There are other things that need to be prioritized other than getting a touchscreen phone for free. Getting the Droid is just a bonus, not to mention that it might take some time before a person can acquire the said phone, so patience and perseverance are the key things.
