Infrared – a definition

First of all let’s clarify what infrared is. Most people will immediately think about heat radiation if they hear the word “infrared”, but there is something else hidden from our earth-bound eyes.

Infrared light has a certain wavelength with a very wide range. If we only look at the first part of this range, we won’t be able to see heat radiation, but we will be able to see things our eye normally can’t: “Near-Infrared”. A blue sky will turn dark, leaves that reflect a lot of infrared light will appear white resulting in a very mystical photography. You can create great effects if you combine the result with colour. To do that you would shoot a photo twice, once with an infrared filter and the second time without (more about that later).

It’s Blue Blu!

The uber-awesome-incredible Twitter Client:

Blu Twitter Client

Download it here.

It’s Twitter on a whole new level. The client itself is very stylish and has a lot of fun features. A little blue bobble is moving from time to time, when you enter a message a big number is counting down (140 is max) in the background and most importantly you can add certain tweeps to your “favorites”. It’s a waste of time if you would try to unfollow all the people you don’t want to listen to, instead mark all those tweeps who deserve it as your “favorite”.

One of the best twitter clients out there, if not the best. And it is working totally fine on Windows 7!

According to the 2008 State of the Net summary 1 in 7 computer users had major virus problems.

Having a firewall is a necessity today. Supposedly more than 50% of the PC’s connected to the internet are either not or unsufficiently protected. Because there are so many unprotected PC’s many people become a victim of hackers. A very common scenario: If you do not have a firewall a hacker might abuse your PC to attack other people without you even knowing about it. Many people, even advanced users, tend to use the easiest firewall-solution they can get, but is that the best solution too? This is going to be a review of the FREE Vista firewall Comodo.
