  • Imagine that you are an IT Manager for a large company.  You are responsible for ensuring every employee has a working computer equipped with the right hardware and software programs to do their jobs.  Each hardware and software program requires a license — and they are expensive.  When a new employee is hired, you must make certain they are covered by your company’s existing licenses.  If not, other licenses may have to be purchased.  As you can see, all of this is not only very costly, but difficult to organize and very stressful. Relax.  There are big changes on the horizon.  Instead of setting up multiple programs on each employee’s PC, wouldn’t it be easier to simply install one program instead?  This program is designed to allow each employee to securely log onto website that hosts all of the programs required to get their jobs done. This website offers what has come to be known as cloud computing.  Cloud companies offer services as varied as word processing and email to complex analytical and design programs.

  • I was speaking with a friend of mine the other day in regards to mobile devices, and he mentioned that he had a Windows smartphone [Windows phone 7 Series], me being curious I asked about what he thought about the phone itself; he said he loved it, and that he found that the phone performed better than an android or the iPhone. I found this extremely intriguing, because he was previously a diehard iPhone fan, and just about everything that Apple did with the iPhone or the iPad, he thought was just perfect; but because of some business decisions and how Apple has treated developers with the iPad and the iPhone, he decided to try something new. My argument with Microsoft and the Windows Mobile 7 operating system is that it’s always come to the table too late; the game is already started and the front runners have already been established. At this point, Microsoft is not doing anything more than playing the game of catch-up; they’re not doing anything new and they’re making a whole new series of mistakes.

  • The good news today in technology is that Adobe Flash has ceased development for mobile devices. This is a huge announcement and achievement for technologies going forward using HTML 5. I guess one would say that Steve Jobs was the vampire slayer of Adobe Flash. Steve Jobs was the one who decided that Adobe Flash wasn’t good enough, was a reliable, had security problems and didn’t have the performance that was required for mobile devices. From there, Steve Jobs decided that Apple products would not support Adobe Flash. At the time, this was a revolutionary idea; it was very bold, but the writing was there on the wall, and while competitors took advantage of Apple‘s lack of support for Adobe Flash, they [Google] made it a absolute point to say that there devices supported Adobe Flash… Skipping to the current day, what Adobe is conceding at this point is that Adobe Flash isn’t intended for mobile devices; they’re simply too many problems for Adobe Flash to keep going in that direction.

  • Several years ago when phone providers were coming out with their data plans, they could offer unlimited data plans for a flat rate because basically no one was using large amounts of data; there was another applications that were really showing a huge draw on the services of the phone providers networks. But as everyone knows, smartphones and data plans started to become a very big topic one smart phones were well established and then the number of applications that were being created; using larger and larger amounts of bandwidth. I still laugh at the article where AT&T claims that they have 4G service; when in actuality they don’t. this was documented by the chief technology officer for AT&T earlier this year. Basically, his comments said that there weren’t enough applications that would show the customers aren’t getting 4G service; so there’s no reason to say that we don’t already have it.

    Bandwidth Should Be Unlimited

  • I was checking out the blog for Adobe and… oh, wha-la! I saw this… http://blogs.adobe.com/flashplayer/2011/10/adobe-flash-player-11-air-11-available-later-today.html I was looking at this and thinking; oh, good. Just as Adobe Flash is about to go the way of the dodo bird. With everything moving in the direction of HTML5, it makes perfect sense for Adobe to keep pushing bloated  code. The release of Adobe Flash is a cool thing; if it was 3 years ago, but now Adobe Flash is a technology that the users of the web, and developers are saying aren’t a standard anymore, is bloated, crashes and less important. Adobe has taken their sweet time; back from when I was posting about it back in 2009.. http://www.lehsys.com/2009/10/adobe-to-64-bit-users-no-flash-player-for-you/

  • Working with video is great when you have a video editor that handles your video, but in some cases you might find yourself in a situation, like with Windows Live Movie Maker, where the application doesn’t know or handle your video format— then things become complicated. The task falls to you to find a way to get the video in to the video editor and that typically means finding the codec [where possible] or converting it. Where a codec will give you the ability to read the file natively, having to convert it is just another step to getting your instant bliss… so, converting video should be, fast, easy and give youexactly what you want. So, I have some suggestions for video conversion. I have used all three of these video converters and think are are very good; and easy to use. They all have the video conversion options you’d be searching for and handle plenty of formats— and they’re all free. A video converter is great if you can’t find the right codec, and need to get moving on your project.

  • Back in the early days of the internet I remember utilizing simple process BBS server boards for chatting with friends and associates from all over the world. I remember in those days, thinking that it was the coolest thing ever. Basically you logged onto your BBS and you had a group of people that you followed, you could chat and send messages. The graphics were pretty much nil in that it was mostly all text and monochrome monitors. My first system was actually an all in one system i.e. monitor/hard-drive. I am talking early 80’s here. Over the years the idea remained the same, we all enjoy being able to communicate with friends, family and even strangers. The evolution of messaging really took off in the early to mid 90’s. My BBS list of people quickly became my ICQ list of friends, which of course expanded greatly as ICQ was the top of the line when it first hit the scene. Soon after there was rumblings of a program called Yahoo, and Hotmail that would chance the communication world forever. Did it ever!
