"Clean the Crap from your Computer"

CCleaner (or Crap Cleaner) is a very effective tool in removing unnecessary files from your hard drive to free up disk space.  You check what categories you want cleaned, such as certain browser files, the temp directory, log files for various applications, etc, so you have control over what is actually removed.  CCleaner supports the cleaning of files from several programs.  Ccleaner contains an “Analyze” button so you can see what files will be removed before ...

"Clean your Camera Lenses with LensPen"

This accessory comes with me wherever my camera goes.  The LensPen is a great utility to help keep your camera lenses clean.  The LensPen is a double-sided cleaning tool in the shape of a pen.  One side contains an extractable brush for dusting away particulate matter collecting on the lens.  The other end of the LensPen contains a cleaning tip that contains a chemical cleaning solution which is released when it is rubbed against the lens surface. It also has a clip lik...

"Update your software with FileHippo"

The FileHippo Update Checker is very helpful in finding updates to most of the freeware software you may have on your computer.  It has helped me to quickly find and download updates in one browser window as opposed to having to individually open and check each program and then go to each of the individual progam websites to find and download the updates.  FileHippo has everything right there on their server.This update checker does not check for updat...

"Password Security"

KeePass is a very useful tool for anyone with several website accounts with different passwords.  KeePass stores your usernames and passwords for websites, documents, or whatever you may have a password for.  It also has a random password generator built in which I use to generate all of my passwords.  KeePass encrypts your data to prevent hacking by using a random set of typed keys and a passover of your mouse over a random image.  This ensures that the method of encryption is unique to your password database which is a ...

"Clean and Optimize your Computer"

nCleaner is much like CCleaner only with many more features.  Like CCleaner, nCleaner removes unneeded files from your computer to free up disk space.  Unlike CCleaner, however, nCleaner allows you to uncheck specific files that you do not want removed.  This was a problem about CCleaner I did not like, so this is a plus for nCl...

"Platinum Plus Tripod"

I got this tripod a few years ago as a gift and it's great!  It is a very sturdy tripod.  It comes with two quick releases to attach to the camera, both of which have a bubble level to help make the camera perfectly level.  There is also a bubble level on the tripod itself to help ensure that the tripod is level with the ground.  This is pretty helpful if trying to level it on some uneven ground.The best feature in my opinion is that the tripod head will pivot in just about every direction making it easy t...

"Clean your Windows Registry with TweakNow"

TweakNow RegistryCleaner cleans your computer's registry of unneeded registry values to reduce clutter and potentially enhance your computer's overall performance. I've been using this program for several years and it the safest, easiest registry cleaner I've found.  I manually check every scan's results and I've never had it identify registry values that could potentially cause a problem if deleted.  It identifies registry problems by thre...

"Epson All-In-One"

This printer was part of a free gift for the purchase of my laptop.  Retail price was $99 I believe.  This printer is both a printer and a scanner.  While the thing did work, it didn't work well. When trying to print a document, the printer would just sit there for a while.  Sometimes I wasn't sure that is was receiving the print info.  Then it would start to make this bizarre clucking sound while it thought about what it was going to do.  Eventually it would start printing.  It was...

"Wireless Speed with Netgear"

Recently, my parents' router died on them.  I went with my mom to Staples since she had a coupon for there to help find a new router.  Since my dad now has a laptop, he wanted a wireless one.  It would be helpful for me as well for when I was home as I also had a laptop.Staples only had two brands of router: Linksys and Netgear.  As I consider the Linksys brand to be junk based on experience with their routers and my mom wanted to use that coupon, that left the choice with Netgear which I had no previous e...

"Linux on Windows"

Wubi is a way to install Ubuntu Linux on your computer without having to take the risk of creating a dedicated partition. This is great for someone who wants to try out Linux. What Wubi does is it installs Ubuntu as a Windows program, so it can be installed and uninstalled just as easily as any other Windows Program. I've wanted a dual boot setup on my laptop for a while now as I use both Windows and Linux for various tasks. Last time I attempted to partition a ...

"Canon Rebel Xsi"

I bought the Canon Rebel XSi to catch up in the digital age after having used my film based Rebel 2000 for eight years.  After doing a lot of looking around, I found a great deal at Circuit City online that included the Rebel XSi, camera case, UV filter, 4GB SDHC card,  and an extra battery for free with the purchase of the camera.  I went to Circuit City the next day and got the camera and all of its free accessories.I spent the rest of the day testing out the camera.  It has 12 megapixels, a 3-in screen, and...

"Promaster Macro Filters for Upclose Photography"

 These are my favorite set of filters I have for my SLR cameras.  Macro photography is the photography of objects up close.  This can be done either with the limitation of the macro setting of your camera (if available), a macro lens, or macro filters as I have.  This kit comes with three macro filters: 1x, 2x, & 4x.  Promaster is a great company for filters and they didn't dissapoint with these.  The three filters come in a nice box with dividers to keep them separated, not the typical plastic boxes tha...

"Stop Spyware Before it's a Problem"

SpywareBlaster is an important part of my anti-spyware arsenal.  SpywareBlaster isn't a spyware scanner.  It adds blocks to Internet Explorer and Mozilla based browsers to prevent the installation of spyware on the system.  It does this by using the browser's existing blocking capabilities.  For Firefox and Seamonkey, it only blocks unwanted tracking or adware cookies as spyware is not easliy installed through the Mozilla browsers.&nb...

"A Better Uninstaller"

I consider Revo Uninstaller to be a must for uninstalling programs from my computer.  Using Windows' built in uninstaller utility will often times lead to left over pieces from the program being left behind to clutter up the system.  Revo Uninstaller finds these pieces and removes them as well, preventing this cluttering.When you select to remove a program through Revo, it will first ask what Uninstall mode you wish to use.  Using Built-In Mode does t...

"Mio DigiWalker GPS"

The Mio DigiWalker C310 is a very accurate GPS.  Driving down the freeway, it will announce the distance to an exit just as I pass beneath the freeway sign with the same distance labeled.  The maps are up to date with only a few issues I've noticed due to changes made in the last few years.  The GPS has two viewing modes.  One is more like looking down at a map, while the other takes more of a tilted view to give more of a driving car perspective.  The GPS has two spots for storing favorites and a history list.&n...

"No More Batteries for the Wireless Mouse"

I bought this for my mom last Christmas and she loves it.  The name is slightly deceiving, though.  There is a wire, but it is attached to the mouse pad, not the mouse.  As long as the mousepad is left stationary, you won't have to deal with a wire.  The mouse gets its power from the mousepad, so it has to be on the pad to work.  The pad is large enough that this shouldn't be a problem for most people.  The mouse can also be lifted a few inches above the pad and still get power, so you can put another mo...

I've been using this firewall for about four years now.  I have some issues with it, but for the most part it is an effective firewall.  Filseclab Firewall is one of those firewalls that pops up an alert whenever a program tries to access the internet for the first time asking what permissions to give it.  If you want a firewall that can decide this for you automatically, then this firewall is not for you.  When first installed, Filseclab Firewall already has permission for the most popular port numbers au...

 FlightGear is a free, opensource flight simulator for Windows, Mac, or Linux.  It has great 3D graphics both for the planes (inside and out) and the scenary.  When you install FlightGear, you already have several planes to choose from.  Also included is only a small portion of California.  This is done to avoid a huge download.  You can download more scenery (for the entire planet) and several more plane models from their website. Learning to fly the planes was fairly easy using the manual and ...
