I have been playing around with a software called Easy WiFi Radar on my notebook for quite some time which is probably the easiest way to find and use open wireless connections. The main advantage of the tool is its simplicity. All that needs to be done on the part of the user is to click the button of the application to start it.

I really cannot understand people who buy mobile phone ringtones, wallpapers and other stuff for their mobile phones. It’s very expensive in my opinion and the only advantage that users get over creating their own is that it is more comfortable.
It is however rather easy to create your own and it does not really take that long. Today I’m going to show you how you can easily create mobile phone wallpapers in no time at all.

Graphic card drivers for notebooks are usually not updated that often by the manufacturer of the Notebook. Nvidia on the other hand does not provide access to many graphic card drivers for Notebook graphic cards on their website and the desktop graphic cards cannot be installed on notebooks.

Nokia released a new version of their PC Suite about a month ago which is the central PC software to manage your Nokia mobile phone. The software application seems to grow in size with every release, the current version is Nokia PC Suite 7.0.7.0 with a size of 34 Megabytes.
Basic functions that Nokia PC Suite 7 provides are backing up important data of the mobile phone, synchronizing all kinds of data like contacts, emails and calendars and providing Internet access for the computer the mobile phone is connected to.

The Gdium small laptop, or netbook if you prefer that term, ships with a 10″ display which offers a maximum resolution of 1024×600 pixels. This makes it slightly larger than the Asus EeePC 900 which on the other hand only offers a 8.9″ screen.

If you are running dedicated servers, virtual private servers or even hosting accounts, you need some backup plans to cover eventualities. I was away for the last five days and had to make sure that I could react immediately when I would receive notice of an emergency. You need to know that I run a few scripts every minute that check if certain core modules are still running on my servers and that I receive an SMS instantly if they are not.

After writing the article about Locate PC, a utility that sends information like the IP address on a daily basis I was wondering what the state of the art of the anti-theft software for mobile phones would look like. I’m just guessing but it’s probably true that mobile phones get stolen more often than notebooks, probably due to sheer numbers but also because they are smaller and easier to steal.

Skype for your mobile [via Shodan] beta was released by Skype. This is basically Skype that can be installed on a mobile phone. The mobile phones that are currently supported are from Nokia, Samsung, Motorola and Sony Ericsson.
