A friend of mine is always using RapidShare (www.RapidShare.com) to find stuff like new television episodes and music videos. I never really knew much about RapidShare other than you could download stuff using it. He was showing me some stuff at work on his “premium account” and it really seems pretty cool. You can get a RapidShare premium account for around twelve bucks a month and download just about anything you want. The only real restriction that I saw was a 25gb per-five-days limit, meaning you cant download over 5gb worth of stuff in a 5 day period. I honestly don’t think I’ve downloaded over 5gb worth of stuff since I’ve had the internet, so this seems like a really good deal for me. He said you can find all kinds of things on RapidShare, even movies and video games. I don’t really download anything like music or that kind of stuff, but I do like making custom DVD’s of music videos and such. I think I’m going to give RapidShare a try for a month and see how I like it.

I am pretty into computers and software. I always have been, every since i was younger. Everyone I know calls me whenever they have a computer related question. I have started doing some freelance computer work and I was recently contracted to setup the computer systems at a local high school and to setup some assisted living software for a customer of my company. I hope I continue to get business.

They recently upgraded all of the computers at my company to Microsoft Office Word 2007. I opened the program expecting it to be similar to the previous version of Word that we were using. It is completely different. The GUI is nothing like the versions before it. It looks kind of nice but it’s going to take some getting used to, that’s for sure. I was fine with the old version. Now I have to learn where everything is all over again. Super.

My company has been looking into the intranet software from EPAZZ.com to manage the company website. The EPAZZ software has integration to backend systems,  great website content management features, business email and more. They offer a free trial of their software on EPAZZ.com if you would like to try it for yourself. All you have to do is contact them to get it setup. Visit their website for more information.
