With the time the use of technology has become so common and easy that we don't have to understand how do they work. Sometimes we start to mix up the meaning of different terms, interchanging one meaning for another without taking care of that. A common example for that are the words internet, web, and browser, what are totally different.The Internet is the worldwide, publicly accessible network of interconnected computer networks that transmit data by packet switching using the standard Internet Protocol (IP) or in toher words we can say that is the physical media. The World Wide Web ("WWW" or simply the "Web") is a system of interlinked, hypertext documents that runs over the Internet or we can say that it is the data. A web browser is a software application that enables a user to display and interact with text, images, and other information typically located on a web page at a website on the World Wide Web or a local area network or we could say that a browser(i.e. firefox, internet explorer, opera, safari) is the program we use to surf in the internet to access different type of data. This presentation show some common misconceptions about the internet that people have.

How to Switch Browser: from IE to FIREFOX
Posted by Insta GC at 3:07 AM 0 comments
Most of the people use Internet Explorer to surf in the web. But the main reason for using Internet Explorer is not because this is an amazing browser but because people have never tried another browser, this is easy to explain by the fact that all the computers have IE already installed in the system when we buy a new computer, or when we go to any cybercafe and the browser that we find is explorer. The new version of explorer have taken many of the features of Firefox(i.e. like tabs); but even with those improvements, Firefox is a better and safer browser. One of the characteristics of Firefox that I like a lot is the customization, you can install as many add-ons as you want( I read that some guy install 200 and the browser works perfectly). Another thing that is important about Firefox is that is in a constant improvement, now we have the 2.0 version: but soon we will have the version 3.0. This is the first tutorial in video I made, I am showing you the basic steps you have to make to switch of browser, this is just going to take you few minutes. You also are going to learn how to install the Google Toolbar for Firefox, del.icio.us tab, Clipmarks tab, Flashgot and IE tab. In later post I will explain you how to use each of these add-ons in a really efficient manner.

How to make Firefox more efficient
Posted by Insta GC at 7:26 PM 0 comments
Well, after a poll I made between the people I know I realize that they don't know about Firefox and they don't use it just because they don't know what is Firefox?, or how to use it, or what are the advantages to have it. So here I am posting a tutoring in video I found at www.jimmyr.com. With explorer I always had many problems, and know that I am using Firefox, It is almost impossible to me to user another browser. One of the things I like the most about Firefox, it is the fact that I save a lot of time, obviously at the beginning takes a little longer to get used to; but this is time will really pay off. In this tutorial you will learn how to make quick searches using, using the "quick searches" bookmark tool. So pay attention and enjoy it.
