It is not as slick as Firefox or Safari but it has one killer feature that will make it seem cool. It allows you to have in the sidebar most of the popular social networking sites such as Facebook, Digg, Twitter, YouTube, Pownce, and many more.It has a list of all the sites on there site at <a href="http://www.flock.com/">flock.com</a> but it will work will most of the popular sites. Also you can set it up with blogging sites such as Blogger, Wordpress and even your own self-hosted blog. I am using the feature to post right now. I would give this browser a 8.5/10 because it is a great way to stay connected to everyone but the side bar does take a lot of space and at times I thought it was a little slow. But overall if you are the person who is constantly checking Twitter, Facebook, and publishing to blogs then you should download this and give it a try!<br /><br />Enjoy,<br /><br />TechKid77<br /><br />A quick note is that it is powered by Mozilla that is the same engine that powers Firefox.Tuckerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01163587264856121255noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335389971433719866.post-54946616423047582602008-05-26T00:05:00.000-07:002008-12-10T13:19:27.672-08:00WWDC 2008 Comming Soon!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_5932uzOsy-U/SDpl3yAJfmI/AAAAAAAAACA/AsZ8dSzzvHQ/s1600-h/190857-landmark_400.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_5932uzOsy-U/SDpl3yAJfmI/AAAAAAAAACA/AsZ8dSzzvHQ/s200/190857-landmark_400.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5204584328369634914" /></a><br />All Apple fans including myself are waiting for the upcoming WWDC 2008 on June 9-12. There are many rumors like always, but some of the major rumors are 3G iPhone and mac Book Pro updates. The 3G iPhone is almost proven by many articles, sources, and other information online. <br />Apple says its going to be a Land Mark event in more than one way. Hopefully that means many new updates and products. Lets keep our fingers crossed for good updates!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335389971433719866.post-53580617651024384362008-05-21T05:27:00.001-07:002008-05-21T05:27:41.504-07:00Vista Tip: How To turn off UAC<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><p><object height='350' width='425'><param value='http://youtube.com/v/QqDvngXiLqc' name='movie'/><embed height='350' width='425' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' src='http://youtube.com/v/QqDvngXiLqc'/></object></p><p>Now grant it ,UAC is there for a reason for safety.

If you have a broadband connection (and most of us do), you can use pipelining to speed up your page loads. This allows Firefox to load multiple things on a page at once, instead of one at a time (by default, it’s optimized for dialup connections). Here’s how:<br /><br /> - Type “about:config” into the address bar and hit enter. Type “network.http” in the filter field, and change the following settings (double-click on them to change them):<br /> - Set “network.http.pipelining” to “true”<br /> - Set “network.http.proxy.pipelining” to “true”<br /> - Set “network.http.pipelining.maxrequests” to a number like 30. This will allow it to make 30 requests at once.<br /> - Also, right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it “nglayout.initialpaint.delay” and set its value to “0″. This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives.<br /><br />Limit RAM usage. If Firefox takes up too much memory on your computer, you can limit the amount of RAM it is allowed to us. Again, go to about:config, filter “browser.cache” and select “browser.cache.disk.capacity”. It’s set to 50000, but you can lower it, depending on how much memory you have. Try 15000 if you have between 512MB and 1GB ram.<br /><br />Reduce RAM usage further for when Firefox is minimized. This setting will move Firefox to your hard drive when you minimize it, taking up much less memory. And there is no noticeable difference in speed when you restore Firefox, so it’s definitely worth a go. Again, go to about:config, right-click anywhere and select New-> Boolean. Name it “config.trim_on_minimize” and set it to TRUE. You have to restart Firefox for these settings to take effect.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335389971433719866.post-14546698786443548812008-04-29T21:42:00.000-07:002008-04-29T21:47:02.461-07:00Windows XP Key Macros with HotKeyBindHot Key Bind is an amazing application for key macros. you can use hot key bind to launch a file, application, or even a specific web site.

The All in one i-macs have been upgraded just as the macbook and macbook pro with the "Penryn" Intel Core 2 duo processor. This and a new Nvidia Geforce 8800 GS with 512 MB of Vram has been added to the 24 inch model which now runs at 3.06GHZ! and prices at 2,119$. As of design changes there still the same dazzling i-macs just beefed up hardware and faster specs, mainly these penyryns are the big hit to the i-macs which will show speed increases in overall system and application speeds. The models still stand at two 20 inch models with 2.2 & 2.4 GHZ and now two 24 inch models at 2.8GHZ & the new 3.06GHZ with the new feature of the nvidia card to the apple store. A elegant machine now taken to the next level and with this in mind and with the whole penryn processor migration we're surely hoping to see the future macs such as mini, and possibly the air with these new speedy processor models. So i'll end it with that and a major props to apple on the update and with WWDC coming up who knows whats next....KidGuruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13728264040132513174noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335389971433719866.post-86816467936368170722008-04-26T21:31:00.001-07:002008-04-26T21:31:59.935-07:00My friend skating : HardFlips<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><p><object height='350' width='425'><param value='http://youtube.com/v/FF5MaMgcI8U' name='movie'/><embed height='350' width='425' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' src='http://youtube.com/v/FF5MaMgcI8U'/></object></p><p>Here's my friend skating, check out his youtube and sub if u like , feel free to email him sunnyd2013@yahoo.com </p></div>KidGuruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13728264040132513174noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335389971433719866.post-67591413406709217682008-04-25T20:42:00.000-07:002008-04-25T21:25:52.237-07:00COD:4 Map Pack Record<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://news.filefront.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/cod4mp-image026.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px;" src="http://news.filefront.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/cod4mp-image026.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />Activision's recent release of the Call of duty 4 (COD:4) Map Pack has set a recored for Paid download in the Xbox Market Place.

Well now you can with KGB Archive. KGB Archive is very a very strong piece of software. You can choose between lower, low, average, good, extreme, and monumental compression seatings. My results are amazing. I Archived a 2.5Gb .iso file down to 200Mb. The major downside is the time it takes to compress a file. It took me 35 Hours to compress that file on extreme compression and I'm using a 2.0GHz Core 2 Duo. I would definitely recommend a dual core for this application.<br /><br />KGB Archive can be downloaded here - http://www.kgbarchiver.net/?page=downloadAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335389971433719866.post-4465799932801796792008-04-17T05:34:00.000-07:002008-04-17T05:46:10.372-07:00Tech-Upgrade Plans: GearTech-Upgrades <br />New Gear to come<br /><br /><br />So it's time to upgrade some gear and sell older gear , some stuff i have to sell include<br /><br />-Keyboards<br />-Monitors<br />-Webcam<br />-Mics<br />etc...<br /><br />With that said i do have some gear that needs upgrading either cause of broken hardware or just to upgrade for a geeks sake =)<br /><br />First off my headset <br />-Logitech Premium Headset<br />has a fault cause i can't hear out of the left set so i'm needing to upgrade for better audio quality and another mic<br /><br />I'm thinking of upgrading to a logitech ultra clear usb headset<br />that costs around 35 $<br /><br />this will help alot with the podcast and another thing i'm looking to add to the collection will be a <br />Podcasting Mic<br /><br />thinking the samsung roadster models with a base station kit etc for the itunes podcast etc.<br /><br />So as you use alot of audio gear will be needed for the show and videos<br /><br />Now moving out of the audio department and into the video -SOFTWARE is something importantly needed primarily ADOBE software including<br /><br />-PhotoShop<br />-Premier <br />-After Effects<br />-Dreamweaver<br /><br />Only thing is these Software cost a ton so i'll have to look around for special deals on the net coupons,etc.<br /><br />As you see alot of stuff is needed and theres more of course but i'll get into that later on in my other blogs if you want to help out at all by donating equipment or money it'll be done via - Paypal <br /><br />Email Me at kidgurucenter@gmail.com if your intrested in helping out <br /><br />Thanks for reading <br /><br />KIDGURUKidGuruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13728264040132513174noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335389971433719866.post-4506210496553311622008-04-14T00:09:00.001-07:002008-04-14T00:09:18.834-07:00How to run n64,ps2 etc games with Emulation Software<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><p><object height='350' width='425'><param value='http://youtube.com/v/hfGdrIaS68M' name='movie'/><embed height='350' width='425' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' src='http://youtube.com/v/hfGdrIaS68M'/></object></p><p>This video tutorial shows how to run N64, PS2 etc games on you PC with emulation software that emulates the game so it can run through your pc<br /><br />Classics like<br />-Mario Kart 64 <br />-GoldenEye007<br /><br />etc get all the links and downloads here<br /><br /><br />-----------<br />Emulation/Emulator Software<br />To run N64, PS2, XBOX,DS, etc through emulation on your computer<br /><br />Emulators<br />N64- http://www.pj64-emu.com/<br />PS2- http://www.pcsx2.net/<br />XBOX- http://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/...<br />MORE at- http://www.emulator-zone.com<br /><br />Rom Files get all your games here and or any other place you find Make sure you find a safe site i may add<br /><br />- www.coolrom.com<br />- http://www.emulator-zone.com<br /><br />Hope you Enjoy More tuts on Emulation coming up<br /><br />Kidguru</p></div>KidGuruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13728264040132513174noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335389971433719866.post-71001349444341793152008-04-13T01:58:00.001-07:002008-04-13T01:58:41.812-07:00How To Set-up and Submit your Podcast<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><p><object height='350' width='425'><param value='http://youtube.com/v/k6pN2j-fBt0' name='movie'/><embed height='350' width='425' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' src='http://youtube.com/v/k6pN2j-fBt0'/></object></p><p>This tutorial will show how to set-up and submit your podcast to your directory and service I-Tunes etc<br /><br />So the video pretty much explains it all<br /><br />Useful Programs<br />-Audacity<br />-Itunes<br />etc<br /><br />Links<br /><br />COMING SOON</p></div>KidGuruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13728264040132513174noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335389971433719866.post-21476976865659645892008-04-11T23:27:00.001-07:002008-04-11T23:27:21.803-07:00Geek Update 2.7: Classic and Flat<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><p><object height='350' width='425'><param value='http://youtube.com/v/niFH-fSh2U4' name='movie'/><embed height='350' width='425' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' src='http://youtube.com/v/niFH-fSh2U4'/></object></p><p>Geek update 2.7 has come.

I have tried tons of other sound mixers and none of them where very good. I launched Mixcraft and I immediately knew that it was the windows alternative. Mixcraft's interface is almost identical to garage band, and if you have never used garage band you will probaly not notice a big difference. It has over 1500 clips of music for you to use in creating your song. You can also add effects like echo, reverb, distortion, pitch shift, pan, and many others. Unfortunately Mixcraft is $39.99, but if you search on youtube there are other ways of getting the full version that <span style="font-style:italic;">tech world dose not support of take responsibility for.</span><br /><br />If you are planning on <a href="http://dl.filekicker.com/send/file/206711-D5YA/Acoustica-Mixcraft-4-Installer.exe">downloading Mixcraft</a> I would recommend an 2.5GHz Pentium 4 or higher as playing more than 4 or 5 tracks at one can be very processor intensive. If i play 8 tracks st once on my 2.2GHz Core Two duo it uses 80% processor. And if you want all of the clips the application will take up about 85Mb of hard drive space.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335389971433719866.post-76429065439428554472008-03-30T03:48:00.000-07:002008-03-30T05:00:50.015-07:00I Tweet they tweet do you?Twitter, a great social network site that simply asks the base question " What Are You Doing?" similar to a pownce, or jaiku sort of community it gives users a chance to see what friends or anyone is doing from following to followers.

The contestants<br />are given three laptops to try to hack into a sony Vaio, Fujistu U810, and a Macbook Air. The first day was unsuccessful by all three contestants but the second day Charlie Miller won the $10,000 Prize and a Macbook Air by hacking into it first. <br />It didn't take much time. Within 2 minutes, he directed the contest's organizers to visit a Web site that contained his exploit code, which then allowed him to seize control of the computer. Miller is best known as one of the researchers who first hacked Apple's iPhone last year. Miller said the weakness is in Safari. The winner of last years competitiontook home the prize by finding a weakness in Quicktime.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335389971433719866.post-18019811816469785502008-03-27T05:42:00.000-07:002008-03-27T05:45:54.071-07:00Don't worry im still hereHello All,<br /><br />Kidguru here ya im still here sorry i've been SUPER BUSY latley with work alot surrounding tech-world , also i have been accepted to write at the jon4lakers blog at www.jon4lakers.com and its a great site and awsome community.

Due to many torrent and other downloading sources many users downloaded the update as much as a month early. For those of you that installed the update you will already know that SP1 did not add any new features because it was all code updates. SP1 improved Compatibility, reliability,copy speeds, and hundreds of other minor problems. Many where unhappy due to the fact that SP1 was supposed to come out mid 2007, but was pushed back to early to mid 2008. Overall SP1 was a good update but I personally did not notice any of the change other than the copy speeds. Driver compatibility and reliability are things that you don't really notice as much as they are things you don't really think about. <br />Microsoft did good on SP1 but hopefully SP2 will be on time and have more features and have more compatibility.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0
