By Administrator
The abbreviation " VPN " has slowly become established among average Internet users, which is certainly good, but the problem is that people have started to see VPN as the ultimate solution to all problems.

Some Windows 8 features

Some Windows 8 features

The most talked-about feature of Windows 8 is the Metro interface. Designed for touchscreen and tablet computers, and built to use HTML5 and CSS3, Metro connects to Internet applications such as Skydrive and Flickr.

However, in addition to the Metro interface, there are other features of the Windows 8 operating system that are very important.

The first thing you will surely notice is the faster startup of the operating system. Starting the operating system has long been very problematic for Microsoft, so for Windows 7, it took a full 90 seconds for the computer to fully function.

Another important feature is reset and refresh.

The past few versions of Windows have had the option to build the operating system from parts if it crashes and revert to the default installation. However, these steps were quite complex and it paid off for many to reinstall the complete operating system.

The next important option is Windows to Go, which means that Windows is starting to turn more to tablets, netbooks, or devices that are constantly on the move for users. Also, the idea for Windows 8 is that the user can locally install Windows 8 on a thumb drive, applications, and everything else. It is then possible to plug that thumb drive into another computer and have a fully functional operating system.

Next is the Windows Store, which is integrated with Windows 8 and will present Microsoft's version of the Apple App Store. It is a feature that allows people to find, buy and install Microsoft-approved applications for the OS. One of the good features of this option is that free trial versions are offered for many applications or games.

We're coming to the Ribbon interface.

A few years ago, Microsoft shocked everyone by completely redesigning the interface of the popular Office 2007 application, replacing the popular and familiar menu and toolbar system with something called Ribbon. Ribbon will now find its place within Windows 8. It will be available under Windows Explorer which provides an easy way to check file attributes and sort files.

The next important option is Wi-Fi direct support. Like Android 4.0 and Windows 8, it supports WiFi Direct.

This p2p technology uses a standard 802.11n WiFi signal for network transmission over short distances, but without the need for a router.

SIM card sizes (Mini, Micro, Nano) - explanation

By Administrator
Many users still complain about the size of SIM (subscriber identification module) cards. Which one goes on the phone? Can it be shortened? Can a smaller one into a larger slot? Although we are slowly switching to eSIM (more on this in this article ), we still use classic SIM cards. Newer phones usually require a Nano sizes, but operators issue SIM cards in all sizes. More precisely, now SIM cards are made so that the user can choose the size immediately, and later change it if necessary. More on that at the end of the article.
