Lock the Windows Sidebar
2007-06-21 05:50:00
While the Windows Sidebar is a nice piece of functional eye candy for home users, it can be an administrator's nightmare in a business environment. Having users installing an endless amount of gadgets off of the internet can at the very least waste work time and bandwidth and a worse case scenario would be a security breach. You can limit or eliminate the Windows Sidebar and keep control of what, if any, gadgets are able to run on the users' machines.1. Click the Start Button.2. Click All Programs and select Accessories.3. Click Run.4. Input gpedit.msc and click OK.5. When the UAC prompt appears, click Continue.6. In the left pane, select Computer Configuration and double-click Administrative Templates.7. Double-click Windows Components.8. Select Windows Sidebar.9. In the right pane, select one of the four settings to limit usage of the Windows Sidebar. To enable a setting, double-click the setting and select the Enabled radio button and click OK. The choices are:Override the More G ...

Killer adsense Tip
2007-06-16 02:42:00
There’s no doubt that images attract the eye, so why not use them to your advantage! I’ve seen a number of websites that have placed a small image close to their AdSense ads to draw the visitor’s eye to the ad and hopefully, encourage them to click on the ad. There are a number of ways that you can do this, and which technique you choose really depends on the style of your site (in a future post we’ll look in details at this trick and show you how different ads respond to different images). The idea is that you place an ad close to the ad that you want to draw attention to, but not make the image part of the ad (because that would totally go against the Google AdSense terms and conditions. This works if you get the right image (again, relevant to your site and the subject) and you position it well. To get the right combination, there’s no doubt that you’ll need to test one style against another here and figure out which works best for your site. Also, once you’ve f ...

Surf even offline with google gears
2007-06-13 07:27:00
Google in a press release states that Gears “marks an important step in the evolution of web applications because it addresses a major user concern: availability of data and applications when there’s no Internet connection available, or when a connection is slow or unreliable.” They go on to say that making the browser environment more powerful is increasingly important (Google snatched up a couple of Firefox developers – this makes even more sense in the light of this announcement). You can install this for a couple of operating systems, though Google warns that this is an early-access developer’s release (which would be called Alpha, but Google calls it Beta). Like many recent announcements, this one too had been foreshadowed in Google’s internal documents which leaked last year. By moving web applications into the offline sector, Google Inc is moving into Microsoft Office competition territory even more clearly. Gears is also free & open source, so Google is hoping to ...
