Date: July 31, 2007 Subject: Useful Websites
To follow up last month's ELM Bulletin on Useful Utilities (click here to read it) this month we would like to share with you links to some of our favourite web sites (for both business and pleasure). Of course this is not an exhaustive listing of our favourites but they are certainly the most often visited of our favourite websites. We hope that you enjoy them as much as we do.
Astronomy Picture Of The Day - If you are interested at all in Astronomy then this is the website for you. Each day Astronomy Picture Of The Day displays a new picture of astronomical interest and provides a brief explanation on what makes the picture so interesting.
Click here to visit Astronomy Picture Of The Day.
Digital Camera Resource Page - If you are planning to get a new digital camera you should check out this website. The Digital Camera Resource Page reviews almost every digital camera available and provides sample images, feedback and comparisons between similar models.
Click here to visit the Digital Camera Resource Page.
Freeware Home - The Internet's premier collection of free software, Freeware Home provides links to free software of almost any description. All software is listed by category and are confirmed by the Freeware Home's webmaster(s) to be both free of cost and free of malicious software.
Click here to visit Freeware Home.
Hoax-Slayer - If you've ever wondered if the email warning you about the dangerous virus that no anti-virus program can remove is true or not here comes Hoax-Slayer to the rescue. As a categorized collection of many of the real and bogus warning that each of us has received Hoax-Slayer is a valuable resource for when you're not quite sure whether you're in trouble or not.
Click here to visit Hoax-Slayer.
PC World - Sister magazine to PC Magazine, the PC World website offers a host of information on computers and computing as well as detailed reviews on almost any imaginable product having anything to do with computing.
Symantec Security Response - Not only does Symantec provide one of the world's best anti-virus solutions, it also makes available its vast virus and malware knowledge base to help you deal with those that have infected your system. (Many other anti-virus software providers have similar resources available at their own websites which we recommend you use as well since viruses and spyware are rarely given the same name by all vendors.)
Click here to visit Symantec Security Response.
The Online Books Page - The Online Books Page is a collection of links to free book sites on the Internet. It is categorized both by author and by subject matter and claims to list every free book that exists. Not having the time to verify their claim, I simply browse and download my favourites. If you can read a book on a computer this is the place to go to find them.
Click here to visit The Online Books Page.
Wikipedia - For finding information on a multitude of topics there are very few websites more fun than Wikipedia. Many a happy (lunch) hour has flown by while browsing through links related to an initial query. Some have criticized Wikipedia for its inaccuracies but when used with common sense it can provide hours of pleasure and reams of useful information.
Click here to visit Wikipedia.
As always, please contact me if you have any questions about this or any other computer issue.
