		<description><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://chris.pirillo.com/how-to-make-an-iphone-app/">How to Make an iPhone App</a> is a post from <a href="http://chris.pirillo.com">Chris Pirillo</a></p>

<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/xcod3tutorials"><strong>Anthony</strong></a> saw my call for screencasters, and stepped up to the plate. He has created an amazing tutorial for all of you would-be iPhone devs out there! In this screencast, he will show you how to get started, and walk you through creating a simple iPhone App of your very own! It&#8217;s not too late for you to <a href="http://go.tagjag.com/screencast"><strong>submit a screencast</strong></a> to be uploaded to our channels. Click on the link at the beginning of this description for more information. </p>
<p>First, you&#8217;ll need to head over to <a href="http://developer.apple.com/"><strong>Apple&#8217;s Dev Center</strong></a> and download the <a href="http://developer.apple.com/iphone/login.action"><strong>SDK</strong></a>. This includes the Xcode IDE, iPhone simulator, and a suite of additional tools for developing applications for iPhone and iPod touch. You do not need to buy a developer account &#8211; you can use a free one to start with. If you are interested in submitting something to the App Store at some point, you can then look at the membership options. </p>
<p>To create a new iPhone application, you start by creating a new project in Xcode. A project manages all of the information associated with your application, including the source files, build settings, and rules needed to put all of the pieces together. The Groups and Files list is where you manage the files in your project, including your source files and the build targets that are created from those source files. The toolbar gives you access to commonly used tools and commands while the details pane provides a configurable space for working on your project. </p>
<p>The Interface Builder is the next component you will need. It&#8217;s the tool that you&#8217;ll use to make your App user interface. Using this tool, you&#8217;ll assemble your App&#8217;s window by dragging and dropping preconfigured components into it. These include standard things like switches, text fields and buttons. Once you put them on the window&#8217;s surface, you can move them around, configure them and establish how these interact with your code. </p>
<p>The iPhone Simulator is used to test your App, so that you don&#8217;t have to use an actual iPhone. This will save you a load of time, and is very easy to use. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s not as difficult to create an iPhone App as you may have thought. With patience and time, anyone can learn how to do these. Once you create something unique that others may want to have, you&#8217;ll be able to start earning money on the App Store. </p>
<p>Thanks to Anthony for the excellent tutorial&#8230; and good luck to all of you budding iPhone developers!</p>

<p>If you have a blog, you have a theme. Chances are, you downloaded a theme off the web somewhere. It&#8217;s okay that you don&#8217;t know how to code your own customized theme from scratch! Very few people are capable of doing this. You want your blog to say &#8220;YOU&#8221;, but you don&#8217;t want to pay a designer a ton of money to accomplish this. It&#8217;s a good thing <a href="http://go.tagjag.com/artisteer"><strong>Artisteer</strong></a> now makes it simple for you to create and customize your own WordPress theme with just a few clicks of the mouse.</p>
<p>Everything and anything you can think of that you might want to tweak in your layout can be done easily with Artisteer in just a few seconds. You don&#8217;t have to try to learn HTML or even CSS. All you have to be able to do is click your mouse buttons, and decide what look is right for you. </p>
<p>Move your gadgets to a different side. Change up your text with different colors and fonts. Heck, change the header or background image while you&#8217;re at it. Don&#8217;t like what you&#8217;re seeing? Psh! Just click a button and start completely over. It really is that easy. </p>
<p>Best of all, Artisteer doesn&#8217;t only work on WordPress. Create designs for web pages, Blogger Blogs, or make professional Joomla! and Drupal templates. </p>
<p>Artisteer is probably my favorite new discovery in a long time. I&#8217;m having so much fun that I&#8217;ve now created probably 30 different themes, just by playing around. The only limitation to this program is your own imagination. So&#8230; get creative!</p>

<p>If you have a blog, you have a theme. Chances are, you downloaded a theme off the web somewhere. It&#8217;s okay that you don&#8217;t know how to code your own customized theme from scratch! Very few people are capable of doing this. You want your blog to say &#8220;YOU&#8221;, but you don&#8217;t want to pay a designer a ton of money to accomplish this. It&#8217;s a good thing <a href="http://go.tagjag.com/artisteer"><strong>Artisteer</strong></a> now makes it simple for you to create and customize your own WordPress theme with just a few clicks of the mouse.</p>
<p>Everything and anything you can think of that you might want to tweak in your layout can be done easily with Artisteer in just a few seconds. You don&#8217;t have to try to learn HTML or even CSS. All you have to be able to do is click your mouse buttons, and decide what look is right for you. </p>
<p>Move your gadgets to a different side. Change up your text with different colors and fonts. Heck, change the header or background image while you&#8217;re at it. Don&#8217;t like what you&#8217;re seeing? Psh! Just click a button and start completely over. It really is that easy. </p>
<p>Best of all, Artisteer doesn&#8217;t only work on WordPress. Create designs for web pages, Blogger Blogs, or make professional Joomla! and Drupal templates. </p>
<p>Artisteer is probably my favorite new discovery in a long time. I&#8217;m having so much fun that I&#8217;ve now created probably 30 different themes, just by playing around. The only limitation to this program is your own imagination. So&#8230; get creative!</p>

<p>There have been numerous screencasts submitted over the past couple of weeks. Several of them are very, VERY good! I always knew that our community was full of talented individuals. It&#8217;s not too late for <a href="http://go.tagjag.com/screencast"><strong>you to get involved</strong></a>, and have your screencast featured on this channel! Bwana has been hanging out with us for years, and is even a moderator in my chat room &#8211; when he has time! He&#8217;s gained quite a following of his own, and rightfully so. He does excellent work, and I&#8217;m always more than happy to have him do reviews for us. Today, he sent a screencast to me to give you all an overview of <a href="http://go.tagjag.com/parallels"><strong>Parallels</strong></a> on the Mac. </p>
<p>When you first launch the software, you&#8217;ll only see the first two options: you&#8217;ll have to choose between a new Windows installation or to import a virtual machine. Since Bwana had already created a Windows image, he had a third option to use an existing VM. </p>
<p>The New Windows Installation option allows you to set up a virtual machine within Parallels to run inside of Mac OS X. There are several video tutorials online that show you how to set up and use a virtual machine. For the purposes of this video, Bwana chose to set up a new virtual machine in order to show you how it&#8217;s done. </p>
<p>Parallels is so easy to use that you can literally install Windows with just three clicks of your mouse. Run Windows programs like native Mac applications side-by-side using Coherence technologies. Gain instant access to your files, folders and data across both operating systems with SmartX technologies. And&#8230; you can remotely control your virtual machine using the iPhone application when you&#8217;re away from home!</p>
<p>Thanks to Bwana for sending a screencast in to us&#8230; and to all of you who are working hard and continuing to send in excellent material. I promise you &#8211; we&#8217;ll get them all up on our channels!</p>

<p>The folks at PC PitStop have been a tremendous help to our community during the time we&#8217;ve been doing live streaming. We contribute videos to their newsletters as often as possible, and they contribute to all of you via excellent and exclusive deals on their software!</p>
<p><a href="http://go.tagjag.com/pcpitstop"><strong>Optimize 3.0</strong></a> is a program that I would recommend even if these folks weren&#8217;t a part of our team. It&#8217;s honestly that good. Optimize 3.0 is a powerful tool that does a lot to boost the speed, stability and security of your computer. </p>
<p>You can schedule Optimize remotely to run on any computer in the World that you have access to. Use it to kill unneeded processes that eat up memory and CPU cycles, which in turn speeds up your boot times! Optimize automatically gets rid of junk files for you, to reduce excessive hard drive clutter. </p>

<p>PC Matic includes Optimize 3.0, Disk MD, Driver Alert, Exterminate and OverDrive!! By running a simple scan using PC Matic, you&#8217;ll receive easy-to-understand reports about your computer, including:</p>

<p>The bottom line is that we couldn&#8217;t continue doing what we do without the help of our partners, such as PC PitStop. We appreciate each and every one of you, and the support you give to our community as a whole. </p>

<p>This is the next in our <a href="http://go.tagjag.com/screencast"><strong>series of screencasts</strong></a> recorded by people in our community! You can always submit your own, you know. I&#8217;m still looking for more good screencasters! <a href="http://www.youtube.com/livetechaustralia"><strong>Daniel</strong></a> has created this short tutorial for us, to show us how to easily remove the vocals from any song using the free Audacity software.  </p>
<p>Open up your song in Audacity. In that top box, click the small drop-down arrow, and choose &#8220;Split Stereo Track&#8221;. Once it has split into two panes, go to the top of the Audacity window and click &#8220;Effect&#8221;, and then &#8220;Invert&#8221;. </p>
<p>Once it has finished, go back to that bottom pane, and click on the drop-down arrow there. Choose &#8220;Mono&#8221;. Select the top track and repeat the procedure, choosing &#8220;Mono&#8221; there, as well. </p>
<p>Once you have done this, you&#8217;ll notice that the vocals aren&#8217;t nearly as prominent. It doesn&#8217;t remove it completely, but it does lessen the strength of the voice so that you can easily sing over it, using the edited track for Karaoke purposes. </p>

<p>Open up your song in Audacity. In that top box, click the small drop-down arrow, and choose &#8220;Split Stereo Track&#8221;. Once it has split into two panes, go to the top of the Audacity window and click &#8220;Effect&#8221;, and then &#8220;Invert&#8221;. </p>
<p>Once it has finished, go back to that bottom pane, and click on the drop-down arrow there. Choose &#8220;Mono&#8221;. Select the top track and repeat the procedure, choosing &#8220;Mono&#8221; there, as well. </p>
<p>Once you have done this, you&#8217;ll notice that the vocals aren&#8217;t nearly as prominent. It doesn&#8217;t remove it completely, but it does lessen the strength of the voice so that you can easily sing over it, using the edited track for Karaoke purposes. </p>

<p>I recently asked all of you to <a href="http://go.tagjag.com/screencast"><strong>submit your screencasts</strong></a> to me for review. The best of the best will be chosen to be featured here, in my various channels and outlets. This provides content of a different perspective for our community, and gives you new exposure for your work! <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/HaywardJack"><strong>Jack</strong></a> has submitted another excellent screencast, this time showing us a nice comparison between different versions of Microsoft Office.  </p>
<p>Jack wanted to show us some of the differences between Office 2007 and Office 2010. One of the biggest changes is that Office 2010 now fully supports 64-bit operating systems. Also, Web Applications (allowing you to co-author documents across the web in real-time) have finally been implemented in the newest release, as well. Office 2010 also includes a redesigned Office button, as well as a nice backstage experience. </p>
<p>Differences in Word include the search function. In Office 2010, it shows up in a navigation pane, instead of a small window. Also in Office 2010, you have a paste preview, letting you see what you&#8217;re going to paste BEFORE you actually paste it. There are also enhanced picture editing tools. There are new options for working with text, including changing plain text into Word Art, or using shapes and styles. </p>
<p>The differences in Excel include graphs in single cells, instead of only within sheets like in Office 2007. Formatting tools have also been ehanced and upgraded. </p>
<p>There are also many interesting and excellent differences found within Outlook, Publisher and other Office applications. Thanks, Jack, for this sneak peak at what we can expect when we grab Office 2010 for ourselves!</p>

<p>I recently asked all of you to <a href="http://go.tagjag.com/screencast"><strong>submit your screencasts</strong></a> to me for review. The best of the best will be chosen to be featured here, in my various channels and outlets. This provides content of a different perspective for our community, and gives you new exposure for your work! <a href="http://youtube.com/MarquesBrownlee"><strong>Marques</strong></a> has submitted an excellent screencast, showing you an alternative to Adobe&#8217;s PDF Reader 8 &#8211; FoxIt. </p>
<p>Foxit Reader is a free PDF document viewer. It is incredibly small, and exceedingly fast. It supports virtually all versions of Windows. </p>
<p>In the past, you had to download a huge PDF reader from another company, sit and wait for installation and updates, and then finally open your PDF. With Foxit, you simply install one small file and you&#8217;re ready to go. Foxit also features an annotation tool, and text conversion. What other free PDF reader can say that &#8211; and mean it?</p>
<p>For Marques, it only took about half the time to open and load as Adobe did. That is a significant improvement. He didnt have to wait on a splash screen &#8211; the document just opened. You can also view your PDF as a text document using Foxit&#8230; thereby copy and pasting things from the PDF to any word editing program. </p>
<p>In my book, free software that has better features than its paid counterparts is nothing but pure win. Thanks to Marques for providing this look at Foxit Reader for the community!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://chris.pirillo.com/foxit-screencast/">Foxit Screencast</a> is a post from <a href="http://chris.pirillo.com">Chris Pirillo</a></p>

<p>I recently asked all of you to <a href="http://go.tagjag.com/screencast"><strong>submit your screencasts</strong></a> to me for review. The best of the best will be chosen to be featured here, in my various channels and outlets. This provides content of a different perspective for our community, and gives you new exposure for your work! <a href="http://youtube.com/MarquesBrownlee"><strong>Marques</strong></a> has submitted an excellent screencast, showing you an alternative to Adobe&#8217;s PDF Reader 8 &#8211; FoxIt. </p>
<p>Foxit Reader is a free PDF document viewer. It is incredibly small, and exceedingly fast. It supports virtually all versions of Windows. </p>
<p>In the past, you had to download a huge PDF reader from another company, sit and wait for installation and updates, and then finally open your PDF. With Foxit, you simply install one small file and you&#8217;re ready to go. Foxit also features an annotation tool, and text conversion. What other free PDF reader can say that &#8211; and mean it?</p>
<p>For Marques, it only took about half the time to open and load as Adobe did. That is a significant improvement. He didnt have to wait on a splash screen &#8211; the document just opened. You can also view your PDF as a text document using Foxit&#8230; thereby copy and pasting things from the PDF to any word editing program. </p>
<p>In my book, free software that has better features than its paid counterparts is nothing but pure win. Thanks to Marques for providing this look at Foxit Reader for the community!</p>

<p>During a recent live call, Charles nearly knocked me out of my chair when he proclaimed that he LOVES Windows Vista. I was honestly shocked, especially since the calls were supposed to be about <a href="http://go.tagjag.com/7">Windows 7</a>. Charles stated emphatically that he never had issues with Vista, and that it actually just worked for him. He fully admits that he may be the only person in his entire town &#8211; or state! &#8211; who feels this way. We did, of course, end up discussing his views on Windows 7, and about Microsoft in general. </p>
<p>I feel that Windows Vista was, of course, one of the worst things to happen to Microsoft. Also, of course, the iPhone was bad for Microsoft, as well. The iPhone has been probably the most sought-after gadget in recent years, which only enhances Microsoft&#8217;s lackluster products. Even people at Microsoft have admitted that Vista wasnt&#8217; fully baked, so how was the public supposed to like it?</p>
<p>Charles actually liked the fact that there were five different versions of Vista. He didn&#8217;t want to pay for features he wasn&#8217;t interested in. However, I don&#8217;t feel that languages should have been part of any type of upgrade, such as in the Ultimate edition. It should be built right in to the operating system as a core component!! Having so many different versions of one operating system creates confusion amongst the public, at least in my opinion. People who don&#8217;t know better automatically assume that they need the best they can afford, whether they truly need those additional features or not. That&#8217;s just not always the case. Often, they end up having paid for things that they never end up using. </p>
<p>What are your thoughts? Do you feel Microsoft is consumer-friendly, and that there <em>should</em> be many different versions of each Windows release? Or are you thinking what I&#8217;m thinking&#8230; </p>

Even people at Microsoft have admitted that Vista wasnt&#8217; fully baked, so how was the public supposed to like it?</p>
<p>Charles actually liked the fact that there were five different versions of Vista. He didn&#8217;t want to pay for features he wasn&#8217;t interested in. However, I don&#8217;t feel that languages should have been part of any type of upgrade, such as in the Ultimate edition. It should be built right in to the operating system as a core component!! Having so many different versions of one operating system creates confusion amongst the public, at least in my opinion. People who don&#8217;t know better automatically assume that they need the best they can afford, whether they truly need those additional features or not. That&#8217;s just not always the case. Often, they end up having paid for things that they never end up using. </p>
<p>What are your thoughts? Do you feel Microsoft is consumer-friendly, and that there <em>should</em> be many different versions of each Windows release? Or are you thinking what I&#8217;m thinking&#8230; </p>

<p>You&#8217;ve seen us repeatedly say to back up your files. When someone has computer problems, one of the first questions that we ask is whether there is a backup of the important files. You would be surprised at how many people do not have a backup. And there is no reason for that lapse in security. </p>
<p>Computers will fail. Hard drives will stop working. Disasters will happen, so we are going to make this backup routine very easy. We have an offer for our readers from <a href="http://www.goodsync.com/php/pums/rfprepay.php?lic=lckr_gscd&#038;buydirect=yes"><strong>GoodSync</strong></a>. This program has had good reviews and we agree. It is easy to use and it is effective: </p>
<p><em><a href="http://www.goodsync.com/php/pums/rfprepay.php?lic=lckr_gscd&#038;buydirect=yes"><strong>GoodSync</strong></a> will automatically back up and synchronize all your important files so you never need to worry about losing your emails, precious family photos, contacts, MP3s, and financial documents. <a href="http://www.goodsync.com/php/pums/rfprepay.php?lic=lckr_gscd&#038;buydirect=yes"><strong>GoodSync</strong></a> works locally &#8211; between desktops, laptops, servers, and external drives, but it is also capable of backing up and syncing files to and from remote servers using FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, and more.</em></p>
<p>This program will work with Windows XP/2003 Server/Vista and yes, Windows 7. As a special offer to our readers, there is a <strong>twenty percent (20%) discount</strong> when you use coupon code <strong>LCKGS</strong>. This offer expires on November 11, 2009. </p>

<p>For the sake of full disclosure, we tested the pay-for version extensively. The Mac version was not tested by our reviewers.

<p>The easiest ways to get programs these days is to download them. When I was getting started with software, you had to actually go to a store and buy them. The Internet didn&#8217;t really even exist back then! There&#8217;s software available for any platform these days, but this video is all about Windows&#8230; and the ease with which you can install programs using <a href="http://ninite.com/"><strong>Ninite</strong></a>.</p>
<p>Choose your software, and let Ninite do the rest. It will download and install your programs with the default setup. It will even say &#8220;NO WAY!&#8221; to installing toolbars and other such nonsense that some programs try to sneak past you. All Ninite will do is install the latest versions of the programs that <strong>YOU</strong> choose. Nothing else is downloaded or installed onto your system. </p>
<p>I can&#8217;t think how it could get any easier than this, other than if the service could read your mind and know what programs you want without your having to click anything. Ninite has excellent choices, as well. I recommend &#8211; and use &#8211; many of them already! Choose your favorites in the following categories and get ready for easy install:</p>
<ul>
<li>Web browsers</li>
<li>Instant Messaging programs</li>
<li>Media Players<</li>
<li>Photo/Graphic Editors</li>
<li>Document creation and editing programs</li>
<li>Anti-Virus programs</li>
<li>Runtime utilites (such as Java)</li>
<li>Utilities</li>
<li>Compression programs</li>
<li>Developer tools</li>
</ul>
<p>The list is very good, with excellent choices&#8230; and it sticks them all into one nice, neat little installer. </p>
<p>If you know of any other easy ways to get the latest and greatest software, I&#8217;d love to hear about it. </p>

<li>Document creation and editing programs</li>
<li>Anti-Virus programs</li>
<li>Runtime utilites (such as Java)</li>
<li>Utilities</li>
<li>Compression programs</li>
<li>Developer tools</li>
</ul>
<p>The list is very good, with excellent choices&#8230; and it sticks them all into one nice, neat little installer. </p>
<p>If you know of any other easy ways to get the latest and greatest software, I&#8217;d love to hear about it. </p>

<p>During live calls recently, the main topic of discussion was <a href="http://go.tagjag.com/7"><strong>Windows 7</strong></a>. Ross was happy to get through, and immediately asked what he felt I think <a href="http://go.tagjag.com/7"><strong>Windows 7</strong></a> brings to the table for an average or intermediate computer user. I have my own opinions, of course. I&#8217;m interested in seeing what all of YOU think. So, let&#8217;s hear it! </p>
<p>I feel there are a variety of features that <a href="http://go.tagjag.com/7"><strong>Windows 7</strong></a> brings to the table. The most prominent ones are the taskbar and Start Menu changes. Those are excellent, for sure. Some people are complaining about them, of course, wishing they were more like very old versions of Windows. Personally, I think it&#8217;s about time they were so different! Functionality-wise, everything works very well on these.</p>
<p>I feel there is an epic UI fail, but that&#8217;s just me. Maybe it&#8217;s because I&#8217;m anal-retentive? Do you think? But I just don&#8217;t like that the popup menu where it shows recent programs has huge gaps between the program names. However, the normal &#8220;all programs&#8221; menu is missing those gaps. That just bugs me, but I&#8217;ll survive.</p>
<p>Ross also wanted to let all college students know that if you go to <a href="http://win741.com/"><strong>Win741</strong></a> and use a <a href="http://college.edu" title="http://college.edu" target="_blank">college.edu</a> email address &#8211; you can buy Windows 7 Home Premium for only $29.99! That&#8217;s official folks, and one heck of a great deal for students!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://chris.pirillo.com/free-firewall-or-a-bargain-from-sunbelt/">Free Firewall (or a Bargain) from Sunbelt</a> is a post from <a href="http://chris.pirillo.com">Chris Pirillo</a></p>
<p>It is not good enough simply to say that you have a firewall. Not all firewalls are the same. Qualities &#8211; and functions &#8211; differ. </p>
<p>In very simple terms, you want a firewall that protects your computer in two directions. You want to stop unwanted traffic from reaching your computer. In addition, you want to stop some traffic leaving your computer if your security has been breached. And a security breach may happen. All it takes is an errant click. Further, there is no security program on the market that gives you a hundred percent protection. It is a cat-and-mouse game with criminals/hackers. Sometimes, the hackers are a step ahead of the security people.</p>
<p>If you stumble upon a malicious Web site, a self-installing malware program might escape detection and install itself. That program could be broadcasting information from your machine. A good software firewall increases your chances of detecting unusual activity on your machine, and lets you know about unusual outgoing traffic. </p>
<p>We have been recommending a firewall that was formerly known as the Kerio Personal Firewall. Now, it is called the <strong><a href="http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/sap/c/?aff_id=87399&#038;p=440">Sunbelt Personal Firewall</a>.</strong> The Sunbelt Personal Firewall blocks unwanted traffic that is incoming and also monitors what leaves from your machine. That cannot be stressed enough.</p>
<p>Outgoing information may be your confidential data. That might set you up as a victim of identity theft. It could be that your computer has been compromised and is now a part of a bot operation. Your computer could be part of a bot spamming operation. A good firewall, which monitors the outgoing traffic, will give you an additional chance at catching some infection that has occurred on your machine.</p>
<p>This offers expires on November 6, 2009. The <a href="http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/sap/c/?aff_id=87399&#038;p=440"><strong>Sunbelt Personal Firewall</strong></a> is really a gift at ten dollars. Yes, it is only ten dollars when you use our link, and the coupon code: <strong>SPFLOCKERGNOME</strong> when you place your order. </p>
<p>At this price, the <a href="http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/sap/c/?aff_id=87399&#038;p=440"><strong>Sunbelt Personal Firewall</strong></a> is affordable, and a bargain. This firewall supports Windows XP and Vista, and is currently being modified for Windows 7. As soon as it is Windows 7 ready, we will put out an article to that effect.</p>
<p>Sunbelt offers a free version of this firewall. There are some features that are not on the full version. We recommend the full version at this exceptional price. This firewall is one of the best; many &#8216;gnomes&#8217; have used this program for years. The price is less than a couple of fancy coffee drinks and much better for your peace of mind.

<p>It is not good enough simply to say that you have a firewall. Not all firewalls are the same. Qualities &#8211; and functions &#8211; differ. </p>
<p>In very simple terms, you want a firewall that protects your computer in two directions. You want to stop unwanted traffic from reaching your computer. In addition, you want to stop some traffic leaving your computer if your security has been breached. And a security breach may happen. All it takes is an errant click. Further, there is no security program on the market that gives you a hundred percent protection. It is a cat-and-mouse game with criminals/hackers. Sometimes, the hackers are a step ahead of the security people.</p>
<p>If you stumble upon a malicious Web site, a self-installing malware program might escape detection and install itself. That program could be broadcasting information from your machine. A good software firewall increases your chances of detecting unusual activity on your machine, and lets you know about unusual outgoing traffic. </p>
<p>We have been recommending a firewall that was formerly known as the Kerio Personal Firewall. Now, it is called the <strong><a href="http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/sap/c/?aff_id=87399&#038;p=440">Sunbelt Personal Firewall</a>.</strong> The Sunbelt Personal Firewall blocks unwanted traffic that is incoming and also monitors what leaves from your machine.

<p>Outgoing information may be your confidential data. That might set you up as a victim of identity theft. It could be that your computer has been compromised and is now a part of a bot operation.

<a href="itms://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=73330048">Add to iTunes</a> | <a href="http://youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=lockergnome">Add to YouTube</a> | <a href="http://fusion.google.com/add?feedurl=http://feeds.pirillo.com/ChrisPirillo">Add to Google</a> | <a href="http://feeds.pirillo.com/ChrisPirillo">RSS Feed</a></p>
<p>Recently I threw down the gauntlet, asking all of you to <a href="http://go.tagjag.com/screencast"><strong>submit your best screencasts</strong></a>. I plan to highlight the best of the best here in my channel, and help promote yours. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/HaywardJack "><strong>Jack</strong></a> has sent a few in to us now, and they&#8217;re fantastic. This one gives you a quick (but excellent!) overview of Microsoft Office 2010. </p>
<p>Jack started off by letting us know that Office 2010 is only available at this time for developers and technical reviewers. Included features include support for 64-bit, enhanced Office button that leads to a back room of sorts, and web applications for Word and Excel.</p>
<p>The enhanced UI includes a minimizer to give you more work space. This hides the toolbar until you click the button again. The new Office button leads you to a backstage experience where  you can edit, save, print or share your documents. </p>
<p>New features in Word 2010 include an improved search function. It opens in a new pane that won&#8217;t cover up your document. Other new features include a paste preview, which is very nice. Others include improved picture editing capabilities and more text effects.</p>
<p>Some things new in Publisher 2010 now have pages show up in the side window pane, instead of at the bottom. Powerpoint features include new animations and a video editing capability. Excel doesn&#8217;t have too many new features, but it does have a few nice improvements. </p>
<p>Outlook 2010 has a new conversation view, that allows you to group conversations, and even clean them up&#8230; allowing you to focus on the most important feature. </p>
<p>Jack did a great job with his screencast. Don&#8217;t worry if yours wasn&#8217;t chosen to be featured today, though. We&#8217;ve received a lot of excellent submissions. We&#8217;re still going through them all, and plan to upload one per day (when videos are normally uploaded). </p>
<p>Remember, you need to upload your screencast video to <a href="http://geeks.pirillo.com">Geeks</a>, and then send me an email with a link to your video, a short description, and of course &#8211; tell me where we can find you on YouTube (or wherever you want to be found online). </p>
<p>Keep those submissions coming!</p>

<p>Josh called in last week during live calls to talk with me about Windows 7. His general opinion at first was just that Windows 7 is a &#8220;great operating system&#8221;. I had to chuckle at that, because I of course agree. As we talked more, we got into a bit of a discussion about how much better Windows 7 runs on our Macs inside of Boot Camp. In my opinion, anyway, Vista never did run well on any type of <a href="http://coupons.lockergnome.com/stores/VMware">virtual machine</a>. It just plain stunk. </p>
<p>In a virtual machine environment, such as with <a href="http://coupons.lockergnome.com/stores/VMware">VMWare Fusion</a>, Windows 7 just &#8211; works. It runs clean, and it runs fast. When I used to try and run Vista in the same environment, with the same hardware and same configuration&#8230; it never worked. It was buggy. It would crash. It was slow. Things wouldn&#8217;t &#8211; work!</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t forget that I have an awesome <a href="http://go.tagjag.com/7">Windows 7 eBook</a> available for only $7.00! It&#8217;s filled with 70 excellent tips and tricks, to help you make the transition to Windows 7 even easier. </p>

  It doesn't matter if you're running on Windows or Mac OS X - every power user needs either &lt;a href=&quot;http://send.onenetworkdirect.net/z/13766/rn_a32755/&quot;&gt;Parallels&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href=&quot;http://send.onenetworkdirect.net/z/17081/rn_a32755/&quot;&gt;VMware&lt;/a&gt; (or both). There's never been an easier way to test software without destroying your primary operating system's stability. Think of how many times you wish you could press a 'reverse' button on your computer. Plus, there's no easier way to try new Linux distributions - see what all the fuss is about. Run Windows in OS X, run Linux in Windows, but the best way to do either is with &lt;a href=&quot;http://send.onenetworkdirect.net/z/17081/rn_a32755/&quot;&gt;VMware&lt;/a&gt; and/or &lt;a href=&quot;http://send.onenetworkdirect.net/z/13766/rn_a32755/&quot;&gt;Parallels&lt;/a&gt;.
