Over the years I have seen my fair share of these products, no one application or option suits every scenario, but if you want the best, cheapest remote access options available today, here’s what you should be using.
The RSS Reading “community” is still talking about the proposed changes in Google Reader (expected today). I, too, am interested in how this new Reader product is going to look and wether this new product will be usable as the Google Reader we’re used to today. I did want to talk about what this will mean for me, an avid Google Reader user and why the kind of FUD out there is probably not warranted. Heck, there’s even a petition to stop these changes.
App portability is very popular these days. Exceedingly so with the sheer options we now have for actual device portability. Could there be a day when all devices, regardless of Operating System, will run the same code? One common idea seems to be the trend of making Android Applications run everywhere. In that vain, I take a look at BlueStacks AppPlayer.
Google’s Music service (currently in beta) is billed as a cloud-based music storage location that also doubles as a player, music sharing service and playlist maker. The catch, however, was that Google Music is not currently available in Canada. That didn’t stop me. Let’s take a look at this new service.
This little gem was written in January of 2003 on my web page (when it was on the domain calwell.ca). The article was more of a response to the large number of infections I had to clean from customer’s PCs. These things were a big problem then, because many of the Anti-Virus programs of the time did […]
Allmyapps looks to be a Windows-Based application store more like iTunes than Ninite – but they really didn’t get any help when they went to Robert Scoble, and I guess I don’t blame Robert. A Windows app store? It seems like the guys at Allmyapps even know this themselves. Seeing all this, I was interested in the product itself – so I took some time to get to know it. The first try didn’t go so well since I couldn’t even install on Windows XP without an error.
I tend to have an opinion about dating sites that would be best served in another blog post. Needless to say, if I had met a women, that would be great – but it was not my core motivator. If you are single and curious let me show you what POF is all about.
Running applications without installing and having cloud access is definitely an intriguing concept, and, done right – this could be a very disruptive service. I imagine having a location where I could get at any of my most-used utilities fast and easy – or being able to run new software for testing without spending the time on installation. Let’s see how well Spoon.Net lives up to it’s potential.
While reading eBooks was a great experience on the iPad – reading PDF files such as online printouts and magazines – was even more amazing. After this, however, I was looking for a new way to read, one that would not use a back-lit or illuminated screen. This lead me to the eReader product offered by Sony, the PRS-650. Here are my thoughts.
This has certainly flown under the radar for me. I’ve seen most Windows versions, but not this one. Here’s the idea behind MultiPoint Server – say you have a very limited number of computers available to you, but you want provide a number of users each access to a unique desktop experience. Yes, this is […]
