GiffGaff Mobile Network (UK)
GiffGaff.
No, I’m not talking gibberish. It’s the name of a new (ish) mobile network here in the UK. I’ve been using GiffGaff for a few months now, and thought it was time I wrote about it. One of the great things about GiffGaff, for me, is their prices, they are really cheap! Another great thing is that GiffGaff is run by its members, and rewards its members for doing things like helping other users and advertising the company. Read on to find out more!
Connectify
I have recently stumbled upon an interesting piece of software called Connectify. This free software can turn a Windows 7 computer into a wifi hotspot, to allow nearby devices to share its Internet connection. It’s a very small and simple to use piece of Software, and the latest beta version even has a quick start wizard to guide you through all the setup procedures.
Free Domains: Dot.tk
About a month ago I wrote about co.cc a websites that provided free domain names. Today I’m going to follow up by writing about another service called Dot.tk. Dot.tk is very similar to co.cc except that the domains it gives away are proper domains (co.cc gives away sub-domains). Dot.tk have all the normal methods for setting up your domain and a number of nice features including a mail service, a URL shorterner and a free advertising network.
OpenDNS
Most of my blog posts so far have been on the subject of web hosting and web design. Today I’ve decided to write about something slightly different. OpenDNS. OpenDNS is a free service (You can pay for more advanced features) that provides a fast and reliable DNS service along with website filtering and protection from some botnets. I have been using it for a while now and find it extremely useful.
