One of the main reasons softwares are invented are to make, we, users simplified our jobs on the PC and so on. The other aspect it can make us complacent and lazy as well.

When it comes to speech recognition softwares, there’s 2 ways you can think about it …. make it easier or make us lazier.

I was browsing through the internet yesterday and I was in awe when I saw the demo of this software, the “Dragon  Naturally Speaking 10″ speech recognition software.

Bing To Bong Google Yahoo

Is it me or the title of this post just don’t make any sense.

Actually there is a new search engine in town and it is called Bing (hey I’m not binging around :) ).

Microsoft has actually decided to overcome its failure in the Live Search brand with Bing which is proclaimed to outstead Google and Yahoo search engines in future search use.

Why I’m covering this post  you might wonder, as it got nothing to do with laptops? For me, anything that has got to do with the internet has got everything to do with my laptop …. especially with this blog where I got to communicate with you all ….

I’m quite excited to test out the Bing feature (just to see how true Microsoft has evolved in search engine – Live Search is the one I normally avoid as it has just not live up to its expectation).

Event Viewer Logs Tells You Your Windows Problems

The Event Viewer? What’s that?

These are the questions I received often and to tell you frankly, it took me about 10 minutes at least to educate my friends on what is event viewer, why it is useful and when you wanted to know what happen to your laptop or PC.

The event  viewer is the least used and most under-rated tool (and I mean that) by fellow Windows users. The event viewer is simply a log which notes any instance of the operating system.

Let me explain in a much easier term.

I give an example :- When an application (let’s say Windows Explorer crashes), this instance will be logged to the event viewer.

The screenshot above shows there’s an error with the NetLogon and an error indication will be further explained once you double click on that error information.

Cablenut Optimized Settings For Windows

Since I’ve downgraded to Windows XP on my Lenovo laptop recently, I did suffer a slight dip in my internet surfing.

This is because unlike Vista, XP is only based in IPV4 protocol wherelse in Windows Vista you have IPV6 protocol to support internet connection bandwidth.

But one thing good about XP, is that, you can tweak settings ( that includes internet, themes and performance) to your hearts desire.

Being a great hobbyist on tweaking, I decided to do some tweaking on the internet connection settings.

I’ve downloaded a software called Cablenut.

With Cablenut I can set internet optimized setting in the registry directly via this software.

Let’s me share your my setting and it has improved my connectivity by 60%.
