If you’ve got a laptop that’s wifi ready you can blog in all different types of places. Many new retail franchises are offering wifi in order to attract customers, including hotels, restaurants, coffee shops and even gas stations. If you’re looking for a wifi spot in your area or planning a trip and hoping to get online for a few minutes check out Wififreespot,a website that allows users to locate free publicly accessible wifi by searching by state within the US and by country outside of it.

We’ve been having some problems with the Tivo in our living room. Occasionally it freezes up. Sometimes it just shuts itself off. I’m thinking it’s time to replace it. Some of the newer Tivo models allow users to connect their Tivo to their home network, either using wireless or by using CAT5e cable.I’m trying to decide if this is a feature I’d use much, and what other things I’d need to make it work. From what I’ve read by doing this I’d be able to access the music and photos on my computer, and even transfer shows from one Tivo DVR to another or a laptop. Do any of you have your Tivo connected this way? Do you like it? Is the quality effected? Is it a capability worth having?

Many people have things in their homes that they no longer use but aren’t sure how to get ride of properly. Old computers for example. No matter if you’ve upgraded to a newer one or are just a pack rat like my Dad, if you’re a hard core computer user chances are you have a computer, laptop or monitor that you can’t or don’t use anymore just sitting around. You can’t just throw them in the garbage, so they sit in your house, attic or garage. I have a possible solution for you to check out. It’s a site I found today called MyBoneYard. This is a new site that accepts many used electronics for recycling. Just fill out the form online and it tells you if your item qualifies. If it does you’ll be sent a prepaid shipping label to use to send that item to them. Some qualified items will even earn you some cash back. Sounds like the perfect way to get rid of old electronics. Visit MyBoneYard today to learn more about recycling your old electronics. And when MyBoneYard receives your qualifying recyclable item, you will receive an entry into their sweepstakes for a $2,500 home entertainment system.
