My Ultimate guide to Twitter

2010-05-25T15:34:00.010+01:00

Twitter is really becoming popular in fact id say it ll be the email of the 21st century , but it can be very confusing to understand how to use it if you've never used it or are new to it so I've created this article that shares all the links i think will
teach people how to begin using Twitter or if you've already begun using it this information will dramatically improve how you use Twitter. Simply copy and paste any links you cant click on and paste them into your browser URL bar, when i have more time ill make more of the links click able. I will shorten the links using the website bit.ly so at the end of the long links to information youll see a short link you can click on starting with bit.ly... if you click these links the full article will open up in your browser.

By the way i am @chained if you wish to follow me on Twitter.com i tweet about important breaking world news, free software you can get which i list on this blog in the article called useful software to use http://beingahuman.blogspot.com/2008/02/useful-software-to-use-article71.html , i also tweet about screenwriting ( the art of writing a hollywood movie) , technology and internet news, computing, green issues and any other interesting and useful info
i feel like sharing with my followers.

If you appreciate my hard work please click the Digg button on my blog so others can find my blog and all the useful info on it thanks a lot oh and obviously feel free to tweet about this article !

How to back up and save Twitter accounts

http://www.tothepc.com/archives/tools-to-backup-save-twitter-account-tweets/

ive just tried a service called backupmy.net which is free to use, the website has had lots of problems recently, its security certificate had expired & opening the site in ie8 browser causes ie8 to crash. I also tried to backup my tweets which takes a long time to do so they directmessage you when its done..but when i got the DM from them and re logged into their service they hadnt backed up my tweets ! Anyway today 5 August 2010 i allowed backupmy access to my twitter account again & it had backed up some of my tweets. It has backed up 1597 tweets going back to March 9 2010 of the 5831 tweets ive done in total..i dont know why they only backed up to March so ill ask them. They give you 3 ways to view the backed up tweets the 1st is html, you just click the html link and your tweets are shown in a webpage. the 2nd link is for JSON which ive never heard of nor had my Microsoft Windows Vista pc it doesnt know how to open this file type i searched for more info and found this site http://www.file-extensions.org/json-file-extension so i selected notepad as the programme to open this file & it opens the info but its aweful to look at or read..heres an example of what the info looks like

again this isnt what i want from a twitter backup..what i want & im sure anyone looking to back up their tweets is something readable like the HTML option but in a file we can save eg a PDF file...does any one know of a backup service that does this ? i dont want to rely on backupmy.net always being available online ( i wish them luck & hope they do.) but i want all my tweets saved
in a way that i have all the info on my Pc so i can look at the data any time i want..i dont want to have to even go online to look at the info. HELP ME

Another service ive tried is called twitter backup from johannburkard.de but on 5 August 2010 i cant see the info on how to use this on that website anymore so ive tweeted the programme maker asking where its gone.

i just found the link to it its http://johannburkard.de/blog/programming/java/backup-twitter-tweets-with-twitterbackup.html

or heres a link to it from a software listing website
http://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/Other-Internet-Related/TwitterBackup.shtml?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter

Anyway this only adds newer tweets so its an incremental backup..good idea. A comment on this site by a user of the programme said Twitter only keeps your last 3200 tweets which is 160 pages, is this true ? when i used this software it took 3 hours to do but then it said error couldnt write to c:\twitterbackup.xml access is denied
i found the programmes save path in c\users\nameofmypc\appdata\local\temp ...we need to be able to save any software from the internet in proper locations like c\programmefiles so its easy to find the software we install.
i installed twitter backup again it was version 3.0.2 i saved it to c\users\mypcname by right clicking the download the software link and choose save as.
But i just can not get this programme to work, theres a real lack of detailed steps on johannburkard.de about how to get it to work. what little info there is fails to say which OS the instructions are for ! i had to email the developer and he said the info was for Windows XP but im on Windows Vista. so ive spent many hours so far trying to fully backup all my tweets and im yet to find a programme or service that does what i want...any one who reads this and knows of a better service please let me know asap thanks.

Computer schedule to stick to

2010-03-04T18:35:00.005Z

I'm often asked how often should i do this ? or when should i do that ? , so here's a list of the Computer tasks i recommend people carry out on their computers in order to keep them as safe to use as possible and in as good a working order as possible.

DAILY

1. Do a quick scan of your PC with Prevx antispyware programme this only takes a minute or so if no other scanners are running at the same time. If you run it while another antispyware scanner is scanning it'll take a lot longer to do its own scan, eg it took 12minutes to scan 20,000 files while i was running Malwarebytes antispyware at the same time so don't do this !
2. Scan your PC with Windows free antispyware product called Windows defender, you only have to set this up once to schedule a daily scan to detect and quarantine any Spyware
3.
4. Use Ccleaner to remove cookies, tracking cookies, cache, history and junk files and to remove registry errors this will take about 1 or 2 minutes to do.
5. Burn the data you want to keep to dvd's so you have a proper backup of data you want eg
photos, your camcorder videos, letters etc. Why ? because hard drives fail !
6. Empty your recycle bin so your PC gets back the space the files you delete were taking up.
7. Make sure your Antivirus is up to date, most release updates to catch the latest viruses every day.
8. Synchronise your bookmarks using the xmarks FireFox addon and Itunes if you use an IPhone. Xmarks does this automatically or you can sync your bookmarks as often as you want or need to.

WEEKLY TASKS

1. Scan your entire PC .. all hard drives with your antivirus programme, you can set it up to scan weekly at the same time. If you want you can do this daily to be extra safe.
2. Run your backup software, this can be set to do this automatically. You must have a backup plan as hard drive failures happen all too often, or a virus can destroy data. Most good external hard drives come with backup software so you can set it to copy all data on your other internal hard drives over to it, then if you get a problem all your data is saved.
3. Update Spybot search & destroy then do a full scan of your PC to find spyware
4. Record Internet radio shows you want to keep as many shows have a 1 week limit on when you can listen to them again eg bbc.co.uk/radio1
5. Update Spyware blaster
6. Scan your PC with Malwarebytes antimalware make sure you update it first
7. file away the dvds/cds/bluray disks you make with your precious data into wallets so they don't get scratched or dusty
8. Make sure your PC is making restore points regularly

DO THESE TASKS AS & WHEN YOU NEED TO

1. Update your OS ( operating system eg windows xp/vista/7 ) Microsoft issues patches every 2nd Tuesday of the month but sometimes issues a patch on other days to fix bad flaws hackers are exploiting. A taskbar icon will show up when Microsoft is downloading patches for you, you must set your PC to automatically update the OS
2.Backup your data...Ive said do this daily, some do it weekly but if a harddrive fails as mine did youll loose all data you didn't backup so if you only backup weekly you could loose up to 1 weeks worth of data..your photos, camcorder video, documents etc
3. Update the software programmes you use when told a newer version is out as often newer versions come out to fix holes in them hackers are exploiting to get viruses into your PC. Follow @chained (me) on twitter and some of my tweets will tell you when a newer version of all the software i recommend people use is available ( in my useful software to use article on this blog )
or check my brilliant blog say weekly to see my useful software article as ill update it weekly roughly to say the latest versions available. I'm also going to start a PC diary article so you can read what changes i make to the software i recommend people use and when ( by date) i make the changes.
4. Send error reports to Microsoft if they ask you to or any other programmes that crash ( go wrong) this helps the software maker diagnose what went wrong and fix the software.
5. Get the latest drivers for your PC, this is more of a monthly task as drivers arnt updated that often. use something like drivermax software to do this.
6.Upload your own photos to a website like flickr.com so family/friends/followers can see them, mine are at http://www.flickr.com/photos/beingahuman/ they're mostly of wildlife please comment on any if you wish.
7. Upload videos you make with your camcorder to the internet to share them with people you know, mine are at http://www.youtube.com/user/chainsore the ones ive made myself are the ones in the uploads section. you can also see other videos i like by clicking playlists to see funny videos or what i call must see videos !
8. Report bad websites to Mcafee siteadvisor the must have FireFox brower addon, if you go to a website and your antivirus immediatly warns you its detected a virus on the site report it so every other Internet user is warned that website isn't safe to use.
9. Write down how much data you've downloaded weekly or monthly by looking at Dumeter if you use that software if you have a limit on how much data your allowed by your isp ( Internet service provider) eg when i used BT British telecom (the isp i left as its so slow for the price eg you got 2mb when you paid to get 8mb speed and it lost your connection a few times a day) in the uk for £25 a month you were allowed a maximum of 40gb a month of data to be sent to your home computers. With 2 or 3 people in a home using the Internet its very easy to go over this limit as every website you view is sent to you as data, it all adds up. if you view online videos like bbc iplayer or Youtube again that's a lot of data so keep an eye on how much data you downloading or uploading eg if you post videos to YouTube like i do . This way you can avoid extra fees many isps charge for going over the limit your allowed.
10. As and when they happen write down the allows you let through your firewall eg Zonealarm ( see the bottom of my article called useful software to use for what i allow)
11. Report and block spam you get on Skype the voip free Internet phone call service if you use it.
Skype has a good instant messenger and every so often some arse hole contacts you saying buy this stock or see these women who want to date you etc...just click the message and report the spamming bastards and block them.
12.Forward phishing emails you get as emails to companys you use to help protect not just yourself from scams but also every other user of the service eg auction websites, online payment services, banks. use the genuine website of services you use to find what email address to forward suspicious emails to.

Screenwriting

2010-01-12T08:25:00.003Z

I love Films and im interested in the art of screenwriting but ive never had time to write one but ive been buying books to learn how to do this for years the books i own are..

1. John Truby presents the anatomy of story, 22 steps to becoming a master storyteller
i got xmas 2008 its $30, its anti the simple 3 act structure
ive read a little of it as of 2010, its first published in 2007

2. Screenwriting for dummies by laura Schellhardt $19.99 or £12.95 copyright 2003
ive read some of it as of 2010.

3. The definitive guide to screenwriting by syd field
first published in 2003 , ive read most of it

4. The devils guide to hollywood the screenwriter as god ! , Joe Eszterhas
copyright 2006, first published in uk 2007
i highly recommend this, he tells all he knows about the industry its often funny, its not a
guide to screenwriting though.

5. Backstory 5 , interviews with screenwriters of the 1990s edited by Patrick Mcgilligan
copyright 2010, i got as an xmas gift in December 2009 so ive only just started it, Again its not a guide to how to screenwrite but should be very interesting.

6.Robert Mckee , Story, substance, structure, style, and the principles of screenwriting
ive read all of this, i got it in August 2002, its copyright 1998.

7. Crafty screenwriting, writing movies that get made, a development executives real world approach to writing screenplays that will get optioned, bought, and produced by Alex Epstein
First edition is 2002, ive read it all.

8. The 101 habits of highly successful screenwriters, insider secrets from Hollywoods top writers by Karl Iglesias. copyright 2001, i bought in june 2008 and have read it all.
i highly recommend it.

9.Writing screenplays that sell by Michael Hauge.
this is the first book i ever bought on screenwriting in october 1995 for £11.99, ive read it all, but its a hard read. It was first published in 1998 . I recall seeing a guy at a trail station holding it in a tommy lee jones movie where a volcano erupts under La ! ( some insider joke i guess to place the book in a movie scene )

10. Oscar winning screenwriters on screenwriting, the award winning best discuss their craft, by Joel Engel. Copyright 2002 $14.00 its not a guide to how to Screenwrite.

11. How to write a movie in 21 days by Viki King
of the title gets your attention but honestly no ones going to manage that !
its Copyright 1988, the paperback which i have was first published in 2001
i first began reading it in August 2009 and havent finished it as of 2010
It costs $15 us

12. Joseph Campbell the hero with a thousand faces
first published in 1949, the paperback i own was first published in 1993 it costs £9.99 and ive not yet read it.

13. Teach yourself screenwriting by Raymond G Frensham
Copyright 1996 its £6.99 and ive not read it yet.

Other things ive bought to help me Screenwrite include the Magazine called Script which costs £5.75 each but as of 2010 ive only got 2 copies as it doesnt teach you much.

Final draft 7 software was about £270 in shops in 2005, i got mine on Ebay from someone who gave up for about £90, you have to transfer ownership of the software and your limited to how many times you can reinstall it..which is a major pain if a hard drive fails or you change computer.
The only script i own as of 2010 is Braveheart screenplay by Randall Wallace
its a reproduction i got on Ebay for about £15 its in uk a4 size. but its useful to see a full size script.

I also own 7 scripts that are printed as small books..
1 Get shorty by Scott Frank from novel by Elmore Leonard ( free with esquire may after 1996)
2 Goodfellas by Martin Scorsese and Nicholas Pileggi ( free with Total film magazine year i dont know maybe after 1993)
3 Withnail and i by Bruce Robinson ( free with sight and sound magazine 1995 )
4 True romance by Quentin tarantino ( free with premier magazine 1995 or so)
5 The bad and the beautiful by Charles Schnee 1998 book i got for £1 at a book sale ive not read it as of 2010
6 The Ghost and the Darkness by William Goldman 1996 book again i got for £1 at a book sale
7 Four weddings and a funeral by Richard Curtis 1994 book again cost me £1 at a book sale
ive not read it as of 2010

I have put photos of these books on www.flickr.com/photos/beingahuman in case its useful for you when going to a book shop to look for any of them.

How to use paypal to pay for goods & services ( Article 74 )

2009-08-18T10:50:00.002+01:00

To pay me or anyone else using Paypal is very very easy but incase youve never used it or cant remember how to use it ill provide very detailed steps to follow so you cant go wrong .Step 1 click this link https://www.paypal.com/uk/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_home&country_lang.x=true Step 2 bookmark this website in your browser by clicking bookmarks in the top left of the Firefox browser then click bookmark this page and then check the name for the website makes sense for you and youll be able to remember it and what its for ( you can edit the name to whatever you want it to say eg paypal payonline ) choose which folder to save the bookmark in eg bookmarks ( again you can create more folders in your drop down bookmarks if you save lots of websites eg you might want to group all the news websites you look at in a folder called news. If your using Internet explorer 8 browser you click favorites on the top left then add to favorites. Step 3 Then signup in the top right of Paypal's website to join them for the first time ( follow their instructions to join ..its their website so its their job to explain how to do this ) if your already a member click login in in the top right. Type your email address you gave to Paypal and your password ( or if you use Roboform software to remember your passwords click the Paypal name from the Roboform toolbar ) Select go to my account from the drop down box and login. Step 4 your shown your account such as if you have any money added to your Paypal account and recent purchases you made using paypal , eg Ebay auctions prefer you to use Paypal so most peoples first reason to use Paypal is to pay for things bought on Ebay. Now to send money to some one click the send money tab which is 2nd from the left up the top just below the Paypal logo. Step 5 enter the persons email address you want to give money to eg to pay me for my computer help enter filmstorywriter@yahoo.co.uk ill write it bigger just so you can clearly see how its spelt F I L M S T O R Y W R I T E R @ Y A H O O . C O . U K but you enter it as filmstorywriter@yahoo.co.uk without gaps. I charge £25 an hour for computer help whether done by phone or Skype or in person in your home. I also accept donations to help me run my website WWW. BEINGAHUMAN.BLOGSPOT.COM which teaches people which software to use on their computers and how to install it, which Movies are out in the Cinema or out on dvd, i list hundreds of useful websites to use ( my article 42 found in the archives of september 2005) and of course i deal with mental health and drug issues due to growing up next door to PinkFloyd's Syd Barrett who went mad from using drugs and i use this site to warn people against damaging their brains by using drugs so if you wish to donate any amount of money to me please do. Step 6 enter the amount you want to give the person eg £25 and select the correct currency eg GBP British pounds to pay me, then select what it is your sending the money for eg for goods or for an ebay item or for services ( in my case if paying for my computer help or to donate to me to keep my website running). Then click continue. Ok thats enough help, using Paypal is simple enough..i have more to say about it in my Article 42. Thanks for paying me

New movie releases ( article 72)

2008-02-25T16:47:00.001Z

This article lists films by rough alphabetical order, so the newer the film is for each letter the lower it is in the list, ive abbreviated some things which will become very simple to remember as you bookmark this site and keep using it, eg cin = cinema, imdb stands for international movie data base..go to imdb.com for more info on any film i remind you of on my website the number eg 7.1 stands for average score out of ten a films got overall from all who vote for it on imdb id say films scoring under 6.0 tend to be poor anything above 6.5 tends to be well made and worth watching. Cert= certificate to guide you on what age you should be to view a film. dir=director, ill sometimes say which film studio made/produced the film. I give the release dates for uk cinemas mostly or ill say if its the release date from another country and i give the uk dvd sale/rental dates. Any film studio wanting me to give more info on there film should email me please include u.s.a cinema release date and uk, plus u.s.a and uk dvd release date info and any other info like who stars in it and crucially whats the story about ! i will then review submitted films in more detail.

Dialers are another problem (if you use a dial up connection they cause your pc to phone expensive numbers) Antivirus protects against this. Keystroke loggers record every thing you type..credit card numbers etc and send them to the hackers computer so they go on a free shopping spree at your expense..so Antivirus detects some and Antispyware detect some..its essential to update Antivirus daily and Antispyware weekly should be enough...then run Antivirus every day or so, windows built in Antispyware called windows defender can be set to run daily..do this but also use other makes of Antispyware as windows defender isnt as good as the other free products i recommend you use. Dont forget to check the results of the scans..some problems wont be removed by Antivirus easily..they detect problems but sometimes youll need to do a few things to remove the bad stuff. If you get phishing emails eg fake bank emails asking you to update your details or fake Ebay or Paypal emails go to www.phishfighting.com and use that site to fight back against the scammers..itll send 500 fake details to the scammer..thats 500 fake bank account details to slow the scammers down ! . ( bad news this site no longer available as of 2010 but it is for sale so buy the website and run this brilliant service someone please).

Rootkits are a new danger..some Antivirus detects them..see my article on www.beingahuman.blogspot.com , but many dont so youll need a seperate product that scans your pc for rootkits..which are viruses Antivirus finds very hard to detect. I also recommend you stop using Microsofts Internet explorer browser and use Firefox as its a lot more secure and stops pop up windows annoying you when you visit websites. Update your operating system with all the patches available eg Microsoft release patches for their products like windows every 2nd tuesday of the month or if its an emergency they release out of cycle eg any day as fast as they can. Anything you dont patch leaves a hole for viruses etc to exploit and get in your pc. and of course you must have a good firewall..Windows has a firewall but its not very good so again get the firewall i recommend..without a firewall your pc is wide open to attack.

To help me cover the running costs or running my website please click an advert each day you use my site..the small amount of money i earn each time someone clicks an advert help me pay for my computer and broadband needed to run the site. i hope this info is useful to Cambridge computer users, all the best David

The correct order to put software on a new computer or after a new install is 1st you put the operating system on eg Windows Xp, 2nd you put a firewall on eg Zonealarm, ( if your going to download software from the internet youll need internet access so put your internet service providers software on for your broadband or mobile internet access), 3rd put on Antivirus eg Avira, 4th put on 1 or 2 Antispyware products eg Spybot and Spyware blaster, 5th put on a good browser eg Firefox, 6th put on something to find what drivers your hardware needs eg Driver max..this will then get things like your computers sound working if youve lost your sound card software after you reinstall windows. 7th get Ccleaner or something like it to clear crap files out of your pc and edit your computers registry, 8th get Freeramxp to free up your pc's memory, 9th put Mcafee siteadvisor on, 10th put Noscript on, then you can add the other software i say is useful as and when you need them.

Here's a list of software i recommend you install, update and use... if i use it i mark it with the * symbol before its name so you can see i actually use the product and if i put ** its to indicate its essential you also use this or a similar product for your security otherwise your using a computer with poor protection and are likely to experience theft of your data/creditcard info/personal data or have virus problems that can destroy all your files and be expensive to fix or recover.

First off when you get a new computer you install an operating system ( os) such as..
*Microsoft Windows Vista ( either the home or ultimate editions, Vista service pack 2 i got on 24.6.09 as an available update form Microsoft, it was 343.9mb in size see this link for info on what the differneses are in the different vista versions available http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-vista/compare-editions/default.aspx or *Windows XP (sp3) is still useable in 2010 though Microsofts support of this OS is ending so there wont be any more service packs for it ,ill let you know when Microsoft will no longer write patches for Windows XP.

In June 2010 Microsoft announced they will not support service pack 2 after 13 july 2010 which means you wont be able to get patches for flaws in windows ! this is Microsofts way of forcing lazy people to update to service pack 3 ( which you should have installed ages ago ) heres a link to info on Microsofts support lifecycle http://support.microsoft.com/lifecycle/?LN=en-gb&C2=1173 Windows Vista ultimate is the best computer operating system to have forget other makes like Apple who's newest OS is called Mac OS X 10.6 snow leopard or the various linux os's. ( service packs eg sp1 fix hundreds of flaws in a product so you must install them via the windows update button or windows update website which you have to view in Microsofts Internet Explorer browser) in Internet explorer go to tools ( near the top right) then select windows update youll end up on http://update.microsoft.com/windowsupdate/v6/default.aspx?ln=en-us from there select express to update your operating system. or Windows XP (sp3) , Vista ultimate is the best computer operating system to have forget other makes like Apple or linux.

Windows Xp costs £96 from Microsoft in march 2009 Vista costs even more around £225 in march 2009, if you don't have a genuine copy Microsoft will stop you getting updates so your pc will be left with holes viruses can exploit !
ps Windows 7 the next version after Vista is due out in October 2009 its very similar to Vista ( most experts call it Vista sp3 as its not a great deal different to Vista) . As i paid For a brand new copy of Vista when i bought a brand new pc with it installed in October 2007 im skipping getting Windows 7 as its almost the same as Vista and ill wait until Windows 8 comes it in about 2012

Here's my list of software i recommend in rough alphabetical order..

**Avira personal Antivirus for vista or Xp is what i recommend people use, this does find Rootkits or another make of Antivirus i used is Avg 8 free which works on xp but Avg doesnt look for Rootkits. There are many makes of Antivirus to choose from if you decide to ignore my advice go see www.av-comparatives.org who test many makers products to see which products detect a random sample of viruses..from these results you can judge which makes of Antivirus are better than others. Other makes i know of to buy include Computer Associates, Norman, Norton by Symantec, Mcafee, Panda, Kaspersky, Avast ( is free ), Sophos, Trend micro, Bitdefender, Pctools, F-secure, Bluesquad cyberdefender, Zonealarm, Eset nod32, Microsoft Onecare and a few others. Surprisingly the free Antivirus products i recommend do as well as the makes you have to pay for !

The latest version of Avira Antivirus Antivir free personal edition is version 10 released on 22 march 2010 it now has some Antispyware with it , get it from Download.com . Ive noticed that Download.com is now called http://download.cnet.com/windows/ by March 2009 so bookmark that website in your browser. No Antivirus is perfect and should be used with a combination of other products..read all the rest of this article to understand what else you need. Some Antispyware detects items Avira doesnt find so you need to keep scanning your pc with numerous products to remove all the dangerous viruses and trojans you can get infected with just by viewing websites. if you have version 9 you wont need to unistall this or install all of version 10 simply select repair/update to update a programme version its much quicker than installing version 10 from scratch.

The latest version i use is version 10.0.0.561 which i got on 8 apr2010 it has a few annoying bugs in it that dont affect its performance such as a popup appears saying guard autorun blocked .. access to H\autorun.inf has been blocked for your security, another annoyance/error is when you turn on a Windows xp machine it says your using admin rights and you shouldnt...shut up avira and fix these errors !

Older versions to upgrade from include version 9.0.0.386 released on 17 march 2009

To help you get started i will list step by step what you do to install a software programme..my example of this will be how to install Avira antivirus version 9 but the same steps and principles apply to all other software programmes you install got to this link to see the detailed steps you do to install Avira antivirus

http://newhomeplanet.blogspot.com/2011/01/how-to-install-avira-antivirus-detailed.html

Now back to the other software products ive used or use and recommend people use

Avg Antivirus that you buy will hunt for Rootkits but the free version does not so dont use it. To compare Avg products to see which you might want to try if you ignore my advice to use Avira Antivirus . If you choose to use avg instead of avira look here www.avg.com/home-and-office-security-comparison my advice is to get the free Avira Antivirus product. The latest version of Avg free is version 8.5.278 released on 2 march 2009 . If you do decide to use Avg free you will need to find a seperate Anti Rootkit software product.

*Adobe Acrobat Reader is used for opening pdf files a very popular file format people use to create pages of text and pictures eg manuals for products or help booklets. The latest version fixes critical vulnerabilities in older versions so get version 9.3.3 released by 1 july 2010
Get it from adobe.com once you have a new version you may need to go into add/remove programmes and remove older versions..this helps as viruses exploit holes in old versions of software.

if u open #adobe #reader and cant close it #rightclick the #taskbar at bottom of your pc #screen #click #taskmanager & right click #acrord32.exe & click end process..this is a silly flaw Adobe has had for ages.

In April 2010 i tried to install this on another pc and it would not work..what i needed to do was when a yellow bar appeared at the top of the flashplayer page saying additional plugins needed to view all media on this page you click this and it downloads gp.xpi then you need to install this which adobe doesnt bother to explain how to do ! what i did was google to find out about that file and you need to select to open this type of file using firefox so you have to find the location in your computer where Firefox is installed and select that to open the file. After that adobe flashplayer will install. Yahoo answers didnt help me either fortunately i worked it out myself.
to find what version your using in Firefox go to tools-addons-plugins

old version info...

All my data on it would have been lost forever if it wasnt for backing it up to a usb external drive...so people make no excuses you must have a backup plan and do it daily.

*Bitmeter is used to count the data you get from your isp to see how much you use a month eg 40gb which is enough to download say 60 hours of bbc tv shows on iplayer. Its very useful as ISP's fail to tell you how much data you have downloaded and uploaded so you can exceed the fair use policy most have and even end up paying lots more money a month than you intended to as most ISP's charge you if you download/upload more than you agreed to use. eg you may be paying £25 for 8mb internet connection allowing up to 40gb of data a month but if you actually downloaded 50gb of data you may be charged £3 extra per gb !!!

Youll have to buy this from www.dvdfab.com the latest version is version 7.0.3.0 released on 26 march 2010 This product is updated often.
There are many alternative products but so far i find this the best. Alternatives include Dvd x copy , Dvd x studios clone dvd , dvd next copy, Realplayer even has something to buy to do this now..which got the film industrys very annoyed and many others.

Old versions include 5.2.3.2 which was released on 22 jan 2009.

Du meter is used to count the data you get from your isp to see how much you use a month eg 40gb which is enough to download say 60 hours of bbc tv shows on iplayer. Its very useful as ISP's fail to tell you how much data you have downloaded and uploaded so you can exceed the fair use policy most have and even end up paying lots more money a month than you intended to as most ISP's charge you if you download/upload more than you agreed to use. eg you may be paying £25 for 8mb internet connection allowing up to 40gb of data a month but if you actually downloaded 50gb of data you may be charged £3 extra per gb !!!
so get du meter from download.com or from its makers at http://www.rosecitysoftware.com/ its $25 ps i now use a rival product called Bitmeter...go up this article to the letter b section to find it.

**Firefox browser version 3.6.6 came out on 28 June 2010 so update your Firefox browser by clicking help ( in the top left of Firefox) and then click check for updates .Its made by Mozilla. I found some Firefox addons would no longer work in the latest version of Firefox..but fortunatly Firefox warns you before you install it of what addons will no longer work. You will then need to get an update to the addon that wouldnt work if you still want to use it eg Roboform form filler. Firefox it is better than IE ( Microsofts Internet explorer ) Firefox updates reguarly to fix any flaws found in it and to give newer features. i love the fact you can easily click to open new tabs to have many websites open at the same time.
A browser is a must have product type if your going to view websites ! ( a browser is the software your pc uses to display websites to you ) Firefox also has many useful addons ( other software that attaches to it letting you do more things via your browser) get Firefox from here http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/ version 3.5 was a big step forward from version 3 its a lot faster at handling java, it has a so called porn mode..meaning you can surf but the browser records no info of your surfing so theres no clue what naughty sityes youve been visiting ! for some reason Mozilla is still updating version 3 eg version 3.0.13 is the newest version of that browser. You may find some Firefox addons wont work with v 3.5 eg old versions of roboform so if you use that youll have to get a new version of it for it to work again.
When you get it ( since mid 2010 ) you may be asked if you want to use getpersonas.com to personalise your browser...if you do make sure you pick light colours so the url bar and Firefox addons you have attached to your browser still show up easily. To remove a persona go to tools-addons-themes-default-use

*Flickr Desktop Uploader from flickr.com/tools is used to let you drag and drop digital photos on your pc into this tool and then they are uploaded to your own free webpage on the flickr website, this software is free, i think flickr is the best website for hosting your photos online so your friends can see your photos. version 3.2.1 is the latest version released on 11 june 2009, Flickr only displays your most recent 100 photos, but if you pay the $20 or so for 2 years all your photos can be seen.

Google toolbar attaches to a browser and can fill in some web forms but robofrom is way better so i stopped using this...also each toolbar you attach to a browser results in less viewable screen space..as i found out when on 1 site i found it impossible to enter a competition because i couldnt move the broswer page down to see the submit button ! after uninstalling google toolbar i could move the page another centimeter of so and see the button i needed..so dont add too many toolbars.

*Goto meeting published by citrix online is used to see webinars ( online seminars) i first used it on 16.7.09

*Gspot is used to tell what codec an avi file has. Eg if you try to play a dvd in your dvd player and it says it cant play it so you may need to convert it to another file type using something like xilisoft ( see below in letter x area ) get Gpot from http://www.headbands.com/gspot/index.htm

*Hjsplit version 2.3 via freebyte.com is used to piece together large software files downloaded from the internet eg a trial of a pc game.

* Internet Explorer 8 is Microsofts web browser used by some 60% of web users because Microsoft give it away on all new computers that run windows, other than that there is no reason to think its better than other broswers. I recommend Firefox still but some websites ( 1 in 100 ) dont show up properly in Firefox because the websites creator hasnt built their website to display in any other broswer other than Internet explorer. So you will probably need to use Internet explorer at some point but id only use it when a site doesnt work in Firefox. The latest version of Internet explorer is version 8 which came out on 19 march 2009 ( its now out of beta testing which is a pre release of a software product to check it for bugs/flaws ). get it from www.microsoft.com/ie8 If you have Windows xp sp3 you will now have ie7 so you need to update and get ie8. In early 2010 a serious flaw was found in Ie8 so microsoft rushed out a patch for it which you got via Windows updates. More detailed info on it can be found here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Explorer_8 By April 2010 Microsoft has been forced by the Eu to give computer users the option of choosing which browser to use, a Windows update to show pc users a screen to select their default browser was released in April 2010. Since this date Microsoft has been advertising its browser on UK tv desperatly trying to retain its users...dont go get Firefox its way better and safer.

I screen recorder version 8 records/captures what you can see on your pc screen. i got it to try recording a webinar/webcast. its $24.99 from http://www.iscreenrecorder.com/ eg if you want to record the sequence of steps you do to do something ona pc such as installing some software which you then put onto youtube to help everyone else see how to do something.
There are many alternative screen recorders. I wanted to record a webinar..an online seminar on 25aug10 i tested using iscreenrecorder and the colour came out totally wrong & there was no sound when vlcplayer tried to play it it said avi broken do u want to repair so i did but then nothing apears ! if i said dont fix the video did play but with bad colour and no sound . i recorded the webinar being run by a company via adobe acrobat connect pro meeting but the 45min webinar seemed to cause my quadcore pc to go funny. after stopping the recording it takes iscreenrecorder 11minutes to compile the recording, it ends up as a 1.91gb file but its got just 21minutes recorded and when i played it a horrific screeching sound is all i get and the screenshot jumps around the screen all over the place making it unwatchable ! i will not be buying this software !

Annoyingly java doesnt remove the old versions of it from your computer so you need to go into your control panel to add/remove programmes and remove all older versions of java otherwise you can still get trojans that exploit holes in older versions. ( by 2010 finally java can autoupdate now so it pops up to tell you when a newer version is available to download ) Be warned they try to get you to also install the yahoo toolbar so decide if its of any use to you to get this toolbar the only use id have for it is it can fill in some info in web forms like your name..but roboform is way better so get that instead.

Older versions include Java 6 update 19 . java 6 update 18 i got on 27jan10, java 6 update 15 is out by 5.8.09, java 6 update 12 which came out in march 2009

You simply unblock the scripts it blocks 1 at a time so that the content you want to see shows up.

*Realplayer is a media player get it from http://www.realnetworks.com/( like Windows mediaplayer or Divx or vlc player ) that includes some free cd burning software ( past versions wasted too many disks for my liking so now i use Roxio to burn cds/dvds version 14 of Realplayer will let you record flv videos eg Youtube videos so its very useful. You also use Realplayer to listen to some BBC radio stations. See this link for more detailed info on it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RealPlayer The latest version of it is version 14

Problems with Realplayer..on 17 November 2010 they said their's an update in a little pop up window so i tried to get it from here http://uk.real.com/realplayer but when installing it it asks you to close all browser windows which i did , it then shows that its installing but then dissapears ! your left with a blank patch on your desktop where the realplayer shortcut icon used to be & Realplayer is not in your c\programmefiles anymore and it doesnt show up in the uninstall a programme feature..so Realplayer has a flaw yet again, i restarted my pc but that didnt solve it..ill ask for help from them on Twitter. See this re selecting user account access in windows http://real.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/6867/related/1
Ive solved the problem but somethings very wrong with Realplayer these days, i had to use filehippo.com to get Realplayer version 1.1.5 build 12.0.0.879 as the file on Download.com fails to install. I can now once again download Youtube videos but if you open the Realplayer software and click tools-check for updates it says critical update get Realplayer 14, if u do this the install fails at 51% every time ! & your back to square 1 of no longer having a working copy of Realplayer, ive asked @realplayer on Twitter.com for help but they refuse to reply & this is supposed to be how you get support for them these days ! ( i wrote a critical review of realplayer on Download.com which they noticed so they must read peoples review on that site and they contacted me via Twitter offering to help ) .
If you need support for using Realplayer book me or look here http://real.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/7695/tabName/tab0/support_type/Null

look here if you bought the paid for version of Realplayer http://real.custhelp.com/app/contact

Update on 26 January 2011 Realplayer 1.1.5 on my Vista PC wont record anything on Youtube again now ! not even my own videos which i know have no DRM or ways set to stop people copying them) so i uninstalled it then went to Download.com and got version 14 which is 24.6mb size but after selecting to install it to my C drive Realplayer setup says " you dont have administrator access to the windows registry please see your sytems administrator to install realplayer " aaarggh what a nightmare im a home PC user i dont have a systems administrator ! ( im not in some office with IT experts on hand ! ) im logged in to my own PC, ive never had this hassle with Realplayer before in fact just a couple of days ago i installed Realplayer onto a new laptop running Windows 7 just fine and it records Youtube videos just fine so the problem seems to be with how Realplayer is written to work with Microsoft Windows VISTA ! so i googled admin rights and found 2 helpful links this is the first i looked at

http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/enable-the-hidden-administrator-account-on-windows-vista/

this is the 2nd link i looked at and i follwed the steps in this 2nd link

http://www.computerperformance.co.uk/vista/vista_administrator_activate.htm

i did the 13 detailed steps then tried to install Realplayer again 1st on my C drive then on my G drive and both times it said
" you dont have administrator access to the windows registry please see your sytems administrator to install realplayer " now id not restarted my PC after creating the Administrator account but the detailed steps didnt say you need to do this..ive contacted @realplayer and @realfrancisc on twitter asking for help as this is just crazy !

Older versions include version sp 1.14 build 12.0.0.756 which i got on 26 June 2010 but it has a flaw in that you cant download YOUTUBE videos in the Firefox or chrome browsers it does still work on Internet explorer though so for now if you must record Youtube videos youll have to use Internet explorer browser, you can get it from here http://uk.real.com/player/win/ ive reported the error to realplayer and they are working on a fix. They fixed it with version 1.1.5 , version version 11.1.3 which i got on 12 aug 09, 11.0 was released on 12 dec 2007.

*Roboform is used to fill in forms on websites its brilliant if your a competition addict, and it can save passwords and user names for all the websites you use..i love this product its really useful to have. Its free..the free version lets you fill in webforms which is why most people use it, but if you also want it to save lots of passwords for lots of different sites ( which we all need to do these days) youll need to buy the paid for version. Get it from http://www.siber.com/
the pro version is $29.95 but its well worth it if you fill in your name /address/phone details etc a lot or if you need to remember loads of passwords for different websites.

*Roxio Creator version 9 or 10 or now i use *Roxio Creator 2010 ( which can burn Blu-ray disks ) it is the best dvd burner to buy, its the software that writes your data onto cds or dvd disks. It can make you music cds or data disks full of a mix of music, video and software etc whatever you choose to back up. There are many rival products eg Nero or Avs but i find Roxio to be the best. Youll have to buy this. Be warned choosing a cd/dvd burner thats reliable is important or you will waste a lot of blank disks..eg i find Ashampoo burning software to waste too many disks, any many programmes free to try on Download.com are absolute rubbish. When i first got my new Dell pc it came with Roxio 9 its been great the only problems ive had is that it wont burn files if the file name is too long for it..this is very very annoying as you spend time dragging the files you want to burn into the roxio window then when ready to burn the data you click the burn button and at that point if Roxio detects any of the files your trying to burn are too long it tells you some files are too long but fails to tell you exactly which ones !! so you can spend ages looking through the hundreds of files you were trying to burn to spot the ones that look too long to your eye and then you have to edit them...annoying as often music tracks are longer than Roxio likes..eg i record Armin van buurens a state of trance radio show weekly. some song titles are much longer than others also roxio doesnt burn these characters..The illegal characters are / ? < > \ : * | ", as well as any character you can type using the Ctrl key. They are "illegal" in that they are used for html and other computer code. I think Roxio needs to allow more characters to be burned or point out exactly which files are too long..if they did that it give it 10 out of 10, at the moment it gets 8.5/10 from me due to this hassle.
Another dvd burner to consider is Sothink movie dvd maker which can convert many video file formats and create dvd menus see http://www.sothinkmedia.com/movie-dvd-maker/index.htm

*Roxio creator 2010 is the newest Roxio product for all your disk burning needs, it can burn blank 25gb Bluray disks in about 40 mins on my Pc. it has built in video tutorials.

Screen recording software i use is called I screen recorder.. go up in this article to the letter I area to find it. ( you may want to record what you see on your pc screen to make tutorials or to show an error you have to a friend/ pc helper) alternatives include Video capture master from videocapturemaster.com , hyperionics hypersnap from http://www.hyperionics.com/
and costs $39.95 , or try 16 software icyscreen from for $29.95

i would use this as my screensaver but i find it causes errors on my pc so ive stopped using it.

*Skype voip ( voice over internet protocol) phone calls..free worldwide phone calls from your pc works fine on a newer computer but kills a slow pc eg one with a 677mhz as its very cpu intensive ( central processor unit eg your intel chip !) Skype also comes with a very useful instant messenger if you want to type a message to friends in real time. You can call people who have skype on their pc for as long as you want for free anywhere in the world ! amazing product. You will need to buy a headset to plug into your pc so you can hear the person talking to you in the headphones and a microphone near your mouth to speak into, you can get these very cheap eg search for voip headset on ebay.co.uk and some are just £3 ! nice, get the latest version of Skype which is version 4.2.0.163 released on 27 April 2010 from www.skype.com dont install google chrome if it offers it to you.

i had to remove the Skype firefox addon as it gets a lot wrong on websites eg if your on a lottery website it inncorectly thinks the numbers are a phone number and messes them around !!
Unfortuately spammers sometimes contact you with messages so all you need to do is select block this person and report spam and they womt be able to send you anymore stupid offers.

*Slice audio file splitter from http://www.nch.com.au/ is great for cutting mp3 files. Eg if like me you record internet radio shows somethimes you fall asleep and forget to stop recording something so you end up with hours of nothing on the end of a rceording. This obviously makes the file size much bigger eg a 2hour radio show that is normally 200mb can be 600mb if you forgot to stop recording for a few hours..so this is why you need to edit an mp3 file/ Slice audio file splitter is free. i got it on 23.6.09

Sopcast from sopcast.com is a way to broadcast video or audio you can get it from sopcast.pxn.ca you can record the tv shows you watch with this software. You need this to see some tv shows broadcast live over the internet.

**Spybot Search and Destroy Antispyware is one of the very best free Antispyware products available, its one of my essential products to use and update often..this is an essential product. Version 1.6.2 is the latest version which came out on 26 jan 2009.get it from http://www.safer-networking.org/en/spybotsd/index.html update it youself weekly and scan your pc every few days. It can find and remove 574,285 problems as of 12.8.09 ! you can also get it from download.com, its used by 110million pc users. You need to update the definitions it uses to hunt for problems yourself...i do this weekly and run a scan with it every few days.
Its very good but not perfect..1 flaw it has is that it can detect Malware and say its removed it but if you run Spybot again immediatly after it can find the problem again proving it didnt remove the Malware...if this happens get another Antispyware programme such as Prevx or Malwarebytes Anitmalware which can identify some bad things Spybot fails to detect and remove. No one product can do everything so you must use a combination of different ones to keep your pc clean.

**Spywareblaster made by Javacool software is an essential product. It blocks thousands of spyware products damaging your computer so get it and remember to update it every few weeks. Get it form www.javacoolsoftware.com version 4.3 is the newest version and it blocks 12,538 items from getting into and damaging your pc. i got v 4.3 which was released on 19 April 2010 which is free, you need to remember to update it yourself every week or 2, if you pay for it though it'll update automatically. This just sits in the background it never ever detects anything, its said to block things from getting into your pc, its free so i use it but it cant be brilliant as ive been infected even with this product on my pc so it s just a basic bit of help.
The forum for this is at wildersecurity.com to ask about using it etc

older versions of this you need to upgrade from include v 4.2 on 7.7.09

Windows live messenger ( formerly called msn messenger ) is an instant messenger competing with yahoo messenger and skype etc. If you choose to use this deselect set live search as the default as the Google search engine is way better so you dont want to waste time using an inferior search engine to find stuff online ! . Also deselect set msn as your homepage..your homepage is the first page you see when your browser opens..i hate Microsoft for trying to force everyone to use its products. I first got this on 16 march 2009 as some friends use it. By 20 march 2009 its already had one crash which left me needing to reboot my pc as it refused to be ended using task manager..when will Microsoft release a stable product? i put this on some friends computers and then wanted to let them add people they knew as contacts yet microsoft failed to find the accounts we had just made ! So i recommend people finding this a hassle to use Skype instead or Yahoo messenger as they work a lot better.

Its also very useful to have this if you use Yahoo for your email as itll pop up a small window in the bottom right of your screen when you get a new email..this is useful as you can see what emails are coming to you as soon as they are in your inbox. i find this much better than Windows Live messenger to use.
Version 10.0.0.1258 was released on 6 april 2010

Youtube.com users may want to record the videos they watch so they can burn them onto dvds to keep...the best programme to use to do this is realplayer.. go up this article to the letter R area to get it. There are endless other programmes to try and record the videos on youtube and similar websites but most arnt as good. heres a few ive heard of ..
Youtube downloader is another way to record the flv videos on youtube type websites. version 2.1.7 was released on 25.11.08 get it from download.com. you add the url of the video into it to record a clip. it will not record remote files though. The main alternative to this is Realplayer which i use mostly.
Downloadhelper via downloadhelper.net is a firefox extension.
Flash video recording of video clips on many websites eg Youtube can be done with Realplayer ( see my review of this further down), alternatives include youtube get, sun river systems heat seek gold, tomato youtube video downloader, Youtube downloader, Xservicethief by sourceforge, Wmrecorder from wmrecorder.com, flvware flv downloader, http://www.clone2go.com/products.php which i first heard of on 7 april 2010, replay media catcher which i couldnt get to work, Video download helper is a Firefox extension from www.vidohe.com or Firefox-tools-addons-get addons it lets you record youtube flv videos, you paste the url to a video you want to record into it, it looks like its not doing anything as it doesnt show a progress bar but in 1min itll download a 3-4 min video. The quick download setting took 4 mins to download a 5 minute file so it doesnt seem quicker to me ! alternatives to this are Realplayer and countless others.

*Zonealarm free firewall .. a firewall is essential to have on every pc it blocks hackers getting into your pc and doing damage..a pc without a firewall can be crippled within minutes if you go online without a firewall ! so this is an essential product type. Its free The latest version is called version 8.0.298.004 released on 23 feb 2009 get it from http://www.zonealarm.com/security/en-us/home.htm?lid=en-us ( in April 2010 i discovered that Zonealarm causes a lot of trouble with Utorrent so ive had to stop using Zonealarm on the pc i use Utorrent on..now i have to trust the Dlink router firewall to protect that pc but i still use zonealarm on my other pc.
when you use Zonealarm little windows pop up from the task bar ( bottom right of your screen) to inform you what software processes are trying to send or recieve info from the internet. To help you decide whats safe to tick allow and tick remember so Zonealarm doesnt keep asking you everytime the same process wants internet access ill list the processes i allow, then when your firewall asks you if you want to allow something you can come here and read my list which is in rough alphabetical order and allow what i allow. If you are unsure about a process your firewalls asking you to decide about try www.processlibrary.com to search for the process to see if its safe to allow. Remember half the processes i list pop up as you first install some software and half pop after at some time after youve installed a software product. Also remember that if you dont have any of the software i use and list above you wont have your firewall asking you about processes it uses..eg if you havent installed Avira antivirus or your not in the process of installing it your firewall shouldnt for example say do you want to allow avwsc.exe because thats part ov Avira..if you havent got Avira be very careful as .exe files can be viruses. So check my list and use processlibrary.com to check what your allowing.

Here are my notes on how to install the Zonealarm firewall.. go to www.zonealarm.com then look in products and services then select basic firewall. choose download now on the right side top of screen. Then click the grey zonealarm firewll button ( basic firewall only) on the right. Click save zasetup-en.exe , remember to write this down on 1 sheet of paper..1 sheet per software programme. Choose to save this file to your desktop, click save, when this is complete click run. It says do you want to run this software click run. Select zonealarm firewall free-next-select download and install-next, on the installation windows install to c\programmefiles\zonelabs\zonealarm ( this id the folder where the firewall gets installed to)..again write this down. deselect ( untick) the include spyblocker toolbar..toolbars attach to your browser taking up space on your screen and this toolbar isnt needed if you use other software i tell you to use . After unticking this click next, give your name and email to register zonealarm, untick inform me of important product info, click next, accept the licence and click install. Please do participate in defence net when it asks you to then click next, tick setup my programmes-next, the pc will be restarted so that zonealarm is installed. After your pc restarts and its ready to use a window will say you are now protected, click firewall on the left, move the internet zone security slider to medium ( zonealarm stupidly sets this to high which stops you doing anything online at first !) then you can close this window. Now you have a firewall installed..read the stuff below about what you can allow your firewall to do.

This is my Zonealarm allow list... (for windows vista and xp computers its up to date as of August2009 ) These are the programmes i allow to have internet access, but if i mark ** before a name that means you should now block it ( usually because there's now a newer version of the software or for me because ive stopped using the software) Use common sense you dont allow something if you dont have it for example you wouldnt allow logitechdesktopmanager.exe if you dont use any logitech products ! sometimes virus writers label their viruses the same as a legitimate programme to fool people into allowing them access. Remember you can see what a process is at www.processlibrary.com
If i say its for XP i mean its something my zonealarm saw on my Windows xp pc ( because i use more than 1 pc so i also have a pc running Vista) I will also from now put a date of when i saw this Zonealarm message so you can tell how long a process has been spotted for.

Remember if i dont list it as ok to allow you should then go check on processlibrary.com to see what the file is wanting internet access through your firewall..be very careful what you allow or you may allow viruses or spyware to control your pc. Ok thats a very long comprehensive list of all the software i recommend people use, i hope it helps you keep your pc free of viruses and as many problems as possible. I will also save you loads of money as ive found loads of programmes that arelegally free for you to use. If you need any help using a pc or help with any of the software ive mentioned you can get my help by calling me in england on (0044) 01223 07963 348582, i take payment for my time from paypal.com i charge £? per hour and can talk to you using Skype which is a free internet telephone service and instant messenger. If you just want me to type instructions for you i will use the Instant messenger part of Skype to do this. You can also email me to request my help at filmstorywriter@yahoo.co.uk

Most of these software products can be found on http://download.cnet.com/windows/ and most are free i have also included direct links to the manufacturers websites as they should always list the newest versions.Very occasionally download.com has a slightly older version of a product listed so always check your getting the latest version by checking my website www.beingahuman.blogspot.com or im Twitter.com/chained so follow @chained to get free info on when new versions of software i use is released.
There are other software programmes i recommend but i only tell my paying customers those brilliant secrets ! or people who play tennis with me !!

P.S if you download any programmes i use or recommend and you get stuck at any stage of installing it or using it feel free to post a comment to me. Please tell me the full name of the software your having trouble with and the version of it eg Firefox version 3.5.2 and describe in full what you dont understand, its no good saying " im having trouble with it" i can hardly diagnose the problem from as little info as that !!!, you can also log into download.com
and write a review of the software your not understanding properly and then copy and paste the link to your review in a comment to me, that way more people will try to help you.
lastly of course if the problems due to your mistakes ( ill tell you based on your question to me) you can book pc help from me which costs £? for 1 hour of help done in your home
if you live near me in the Cambridge England area or it can be done by phone or using Skype the free pc to pc phone call service, i accept Paypal.com as the way you can pay me.

Choosing a new computer (my article 70 )

2007-09-05T15:21:00.004+01:00

As i offer PC help in the Cambridge England area i think itll be helpful to explain a little of the choices you face when buying a new PC. Its never been more complex to choose the right computer for your needs, so here ill list what you can use a PC ( personal computer) for and the manufacturers who build them plus what shops to buy a pc from. You can build pc's yourself from the endless parts available but its tricky and time consuming and not for people new to computers. Ill list some parts youll need and where to get them from so ill compile a list of retailers who sell computers and parts in the uk.

First list what your going to use the pc for, are you a gamer? will you play lots of games? will you use office software to write letters etc? will you use the internet? do you want to download lots of data like films, videos, music etc? will you be editing camcorder footage on your PC? so list exactly what your intending to use the machine for. List all the software you intend to use on it also from Antivirus to Antispyware to media players and video editors list all the programmes you intend to use. Once you know what you need a PC to be able to do then your ready for the next step choosing the hardware to run your software.

Here is a list of the PC makers i know of..

Advent, Alienware ( now owned by Dell) , Apple, Armari, Asus, Beast computers, ccl, Chillblast, choclate pc, Compaq, Cube 247, Cyberpower, Commodore ( making a comback since late 2007), Dell ( 1 make ive bought and used for years) , Evesham which is in administration as of september 2007, Esystem, Extreme prometia, Gladiator computers, Golden electronics, HP/hewlett packard, hi-grade, Hoojum design, IBM ( now its sold its pc building business to lenovo the chinese pc maker), jal computers, kustom pcs, Lenovo, Mesh ( a british make with terrible customer service according to reviews on dooyou.com ), Novatech, Packard bell ( which is part of taiwan maker Acer) , Panrix, pc specialist, Quiet pc, Rock, Savrow, Scan, Shuttle, Sony, Systemax, Vadim, Vantage computers,Viglen (sir Alan sugar's brand) Voodoo pc, Watford aries ( who bought the assets of Time/Tiny/The computer world the rubbish PC maker), Wiredzfire, Zoostorm ( pc next day), Zepto uk.zepto.com., Time computers of burnley uk went bust i made the terrible mistake of buying one of these crap PC's hence why you must fully understand not only what parts your PC is made from but also research the make/Brand as some have terrible reputations like Time.

Also there are some very small businesses now building pc's mostly for gamers who need fast machines to display the video games graphics on ebay.co.uk i found these pc builders mostly via a search for quad core computers ..

1-mind-media-pcs, amjzez, bucklaycomputing, computer-hq-ltd, devilcomputers,

deep thought research which is stores.ebay/co.uk/deep-thought-research the call some of there pc's cryo meaning super cooled, they overclock which is safe if within thermal limits which they stay within by design, a non overclocked cpu will run hotter on standard hardware than their overclocked cpu's on quality hardware. cpu overclocking is dne by standard bios changes. overclocking will reduce a cpu/gpu life expectancy from 15-20yrs to say 10yrs but thats fine as pc's change so much within 10yrs anyway so youll need to buy a new pc sooner than your old ones conked out!,

ethiocom, falquuan-oniine, g4-tehnologies which is via stores.ebay.co.uk/g4-technologies , gaming compters is www.myworld.ebay.co.uk/gaming_computers , highspecdesktops, interwesystems, martin151515 is www.stores.ebay.co.uk/easypc-ltd , www.stores.ebay.co.uk/laptopmagic , palicomp, realtech-computing, www.stores.ebay.co.uk/snatch-ach is a dell reseller , vale-star-computers-ltd, zoom computers i strongly recommend you consider what after sales support youll get from a small pc maker before you bid or buy one..its their job to inform you how they compare to a big pc maker.

Now most PC builders make maybe a dozen different models of PC's which means you the buyer has to somehow narrow down from a hundred+ pc's on the market to the one your going to buy.

Here's some ot the shops you can buy a PC from in the uk.. Amazon.co.uk , Cclonline.com , Currys.co.uk , Comet , Dixons.co.uk , Ebay.co.uk , Evesham , Empiredirect.co.uk , uk. Insight.com , Johnlewis.com , Misco.co.uk , pcworld.co.uk , Pixmania.co.uk ( part of dsg international which uses the brands pcworld/Currys/Dixons etc) Staples , Tesco , Yoyotech and ill add more as i think of them.

I must stress i think far to many people just go to pcworld because they advertise a lot ( im unimpressed by the sales staff in this store, anyone whos job it is to sell computers should be a pc user who's very well trained and pcworld staff arnt very good at all. Then most people choose a pc mainly by price, this is the worst thing you can do, always choose a machine that can do what you want it to do, a minimum specification £300 pc can do a lot of things but a £1500 machine offers to do a ton more tasks ( why do you think prices differ so much? ) you need to learn what all the features of a PC mean so you can choose correctly. For £? an hour i can talk you through the tricky info PC makers give out so you choose wisely. Look down the right side of this website for my past articles and look in the one called pc help in the Cambridge area for a list of my services and youll find my contact info there. Im on 07963 348582. or 07762 789559

To buy a PC youll need to understand the motherboard features, memory, microprossessors, fans, cases, cd/dvd writers and roms, chipsets, operating systems, what spare bays there are to expand your machine and lots more, quite frankly its more complex than any other buying decision youll make a Computer is an incredible mass of technology and unless you choose wisely youll end up with a machine that struggles to do tasks you want it to or it wont be able to do them at all. I have found that uk PC magazines offer very little help to inexperienced pc users most of them offer info thats far to complex for home pc users to understand, they dont seem to understand that not everone works in the IT industry. If you have any PC makes or PC selling websites you want me to include on this website email them to me at filmstorywriter @ yahoo dot co dot uk and put PC info for your blog in the subject line or it may end up in my spam filters. Book David to help you through this maze for just £? an hour i mostly work in the Cambridge area but i can do phone support but youll need to use Paypal to pay me in advance..use the article on my blog to learn how to use Paypal, it is very simple to set up so go do it thanks.

In 2011 im looking for a good Laptop for no more than £600 as i already have a high end Desktop PC to do every task on so a Laptop is just to use when im out and about. I have decided against buying a Tablet PC as they dont do much theyre just cool simple to use gadgets that only do a few things. Heres the info i wrote down about the Dell DUO Netbook tablet and then theres info on a Packardbell Laptop im possibly going to buy.

Dell insiron duo netbook £499 inclding vat & shipping with 320gb hd and docking station

accelerometer which flips the screen

battery life up to 4hours,

battery waranty

Capacitive screen stylus (buy extra to write on tablet)

I strongly advise creating a factory disk image (on DVD) immediately and then when you have the computer set up the way you want it make another one (so if the system fails you can do a full system image restore and not have to re-install everything.

Now here's the laptop im thinking of buying ( to compare any other laptop your thinking of buying just print out this article and write down the specifications of the Computer your thinking of getting next to each feature ive written, then you can see if the PC or Laptop has all the features you need.)

Syd Barrett article update apr07 (my article 66 )

2007-04-12T15:42:00.017+01:00

Those of you who have read the Mail on Sunday article from December 2006
http://thinkfloyd.free.fr/interv_presse/syd-barrett-genius-next-door-3-12-2006.htm (this is it translated into french) , will now know Syd Barrett's biographers failed to find out the truth of Syd's last 25 years, the amount of info they give out on him for his time in Cambridge from 1981-2006 is minimal. Some people illegally posted the article on dozens of websites..putting the websites owners at risk of legal action, in response im asking them to remove the copyrighted article as a handful of people who use Syd Barrett websites have been immature and disrespectful towards me. The article was ghost written..i was interviewed and then a journalist wrote up what id told him in his own way to suit the Mail on Sunday's own agenda. Whilst much in the article is details i did say , but by him editing down my unique insightful info on Syd Barrett's reclusive last 25 years in some part i agree i should have been written up better, some of it is written in such a way as to make me look particuarly harsh on Syd Barrett ,they left out many things id told them and chopped down full statements id made to then in such a way as to make me come across far more insensitive about Syd Barrett than i intended, i wish id been allowed to write it up myself..but id have needed far more space than they would provide for any article. As such im going to write a book on everything i know about Syd Barrett and what happened to him in all the time i lived right next door to him for 25 years..i know more than most of Syd Barrett's family members..99.9% of whom never visited him..nor did any Pink Floyd members, Syd was left to rot. When people post comments on website forums they should consider why they say what they say and act as if the person theyre talking about is in a room with them..be polite and argue your point but dont get nasty and immature especially as i didnt write that article!. I could have told you this months ago but seeing how vicious some Syd fans are i had no desire to drop the reporter in the shit so to speak, im still protecting his identity as i dont trust some people who claim to be Syd Barrett fans. I hope that when my full story comes out..written by me in my words youll be more respectful of why im telling you how Syd Barrett aka Roger Barrett ended up, for the last time Syd Barrett the ex Pinkfloyd rock band member was extremely mentally ill id say severe schizophrenia as well as other mental problems caused by using lots of the now illegal drug LSD and smoking cannabis in the 1960s caused him massive unreparable damage which resulted in him being unable to funtion as a normal human being pretty much from 1968 onwards..his drug use ruined him..i will go into vast detail of exactly what he ended up like to hopefully prevent people copying his attitude that drugs are cool and harmless. please feel free to comment on this blog article below by clicking the comments button and leaving a reply for me, thanks david sore. by the way i will not publish anonamous comments and dont include your email addresses in your comments or you will get lots of spam emails.( .any email address shown on a webpage can be harvested by scum bags using software to scan the whole internet to find email addresses..they then send you all kinds of crap every day.) if you wish to email me my email address is on this site i cant reply to everyone but will do to the people who take time to write helpful info to me. Please always state if you have read the Mail on Sunday article and where you found it or if your just replying to my follow up comments here on my blog please state how you found by blog thanks. ( i have spam filters to stop spam getting to my inbox) ps if you see a Google advert of use to you on my site feel free to click it this helps cover costs of running a blog ( computer/internet costs etc ) and use my Google search box whenever you need to search the internet..bookmark my website in your browser and use my site for your internet searches from now on thanks David S

PS on 22 April 2007/ i have this to add.. some Pinkfloyd/Syd Barrett websites run forums where a small number of people who hide behind usernames still dont seem willing to understand the details on Syd Barrett ive spoken out about. I am unwilling/lacking the time to deal with some eyewateringly stupid people who simply can not handle the truth ive told about Syd Barrett, as such i shall be making no more comments on Syd forums...everytime i jump in to defend my position im giving away tiny pieces of info towards whats really been going on, im not going to fall for these tricks of Syd fans critising what ive said so i chip in and tell a bit more of my story. You will have to wait for my book.
As ive said any website that in the future shows even a single page of my book will be sued, multiple virus laden fake copies will be added to filesharing services by a leading Antipiracy group so that anyone trying to get my work for free will be left with a seriously messed up computer. To the Syd fans who say they wont buy it that's fine my target markets a million times larger than your tiny fan base, although im writing about Syd Barrett the implications of my info are far far more far reaching than simply being useful to Syd Barrett or Pink Floyd fans, the info's extremely useful to everyone. Anyone who decides to review my book be honest, any review sent to Amazon that looks like its written by someone whos not read the book can be removed, likewise for anyone deliberatly being critical because they dont like what i have to say about Pinkfloyd's Syd Barrett, anyway do you really think a review by some unknown persons going to slow down sales of a book sure to get massive press coverage? . To the vast majority of people eager for my full story youll have to be patient, itll be well worth the wait, thanks for your support David S

Update on 27 July 2007 , i was asked in a comment where i live now, well im still in the Cambridge area but no longer next to where syd lived for 25 years. I must point out that i have spoken with the new owners of Syd's home wish to be left alone, can you imagine what its like to have total strangers taking photos of your home especially as both Syd Barrett's family and the estate agents didnt tell the buyers it once housed someone famous ! can you believe that !, anyway 1 year since Syd Barrett died a bbc.co.uk/radio2 radio show was played, once again rehashing the tale of syd losing it ( going mad) but once again the media fail to disclose how Syd Barrett actually behaved when he went mad..how could they? they didnt live next to the man for 25years like i did. Until i disclose the truth go enjoy his amazing music and for gods sake steer clear of all illegal drugs unless you want permanent brain damage, all the best David S

What Syd said to me will be in the book

Update on 20 Nov2010 my copy of yet another Syd barrett biography called a" very irregular head" by a Mr Rob Chapman arrived from Amazon and i looked in the index for the mysterious Radha person the author claims was aged 7 and lived 2 doors from syd in the early 80's ( so either number 8 or number 4 seeing as Syd Barrett lived at number 6) and she asked Syd about flying horses ... i hope Mr Chapman can prove this isnt made up as there was no one called Radha living is Syd's road in the 80s ! , it also quotes Ian Barrett a nephew of Syd's as claiming to have known this Radha person which means he's ( Ian Barrett) either in on the lie or Rob Chapman has made up this quote too ! , i challenge Mr Chapman to prove this claim, he also lists Radha as being a Cherry Hinton resident..does he mean now in later life she lives there now in 2010? ( Cherry Hinton is a little village outside Cambridge UK , Syd Barrett lived in Cambridge) I dont want anyone to buy a book if its made up and not labelled as fiction ! so Mr Rob Chapman the balls in your court. The fact theres just 2 or 3 lines in a 400 odd page biography of info from Syd Barrett's neighbours does prove Mr Chapman did no research on the matter and is guilty of revising history as someone else put it.
I will appologise of course if Mr Rob Chapman can prove hes not lying in order to sell books.

The Neptunepinkfloyd.co.uk forum on Pink Floyd and Syd Barrett has a thread discussing Rob Chapman's book on Syd and via that info i found out Radha is called Radharani krishna harte ( sounds like hari krishna cult name to me) she also lists her name as Ms ana wrecks ya and lists her age as 25 which means her claim of being aged 7 when she met syd was around 1992 if she was born in 1985 which is 25 years back from now 2010. She lists her location as la la london ! i openly challenged Rob Chapman to prove this womans claims are true i even emailed him telling him about the thread on Neptunepinkfloyd.co.uk on 21 november 2010 he replied via email and said
dear "dc s"

as a general rule I don't respond to people who don't include their names either in their e mail address or the main body of the text. who are you?

rob c

actually don't bother replying. I've worked out who you are.

rob 'radha' chapman

Then on Monday 22 nov10 Keith jordan who runs the Neptunepinkfloyd website banned me (burp) from his website he says

Burp, it seems you are very... Sore... about this book but, unfortunately, your comments are drifting too far into the realm of libel to be allowed to continue on this forum. As such you are account is banned.

Wow how childish can you get ! Got to close to the truth did i ! , So anyone who still uses Neptunepinkfloyd who are only allowed to talk about things Keith decides ask him if Rob Chapman threatened him with libel. Anyway ive made my point its now up to Rob Chapman to explain his research and how Radha lived in syds old street ! Im off to play with my magical horse in the land of make believe !

here are some reviews of Rob Chapman's book on Amazon you can take a guess at which review i like best :)

http://www.amazon.com/Very-Irregular-Head-Life-Barrett/dp/0306819147
/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1290451844&sr=8-5

Update on 23 November 2010
I just thought does anyone actually know Keith Jordan ? has anyone got a photo of him ? here's a conspiracy theory..Keith is Rob ! , is Keith on Facebook or Myspace ? have any of you using Neptunepinkfloyd.co.uk actually met him in person ? what does he look like ? i want photo proof of who he is, so please email me at filmstorywriter at yahoo dot co dot uk, by using his website he has your computers ip address, email address and all other personal info you give...but just think do we know who he really is ? are there any Youtube videos of him ?? im asking all Pink Floyd or Syd Barrett fans to did deep and find out if Keith Jordan is a real person because as soon as i criticised Rob Chapman i was banned by Keith ! ..seems very fishy to me.

Keith joined Neptunepinkfloyd on 12 June 2002 then on 22 november 2010 he says I have the book ( a very irregular head) but have not read it yet as I have exams coming up. Here's info on Rob Chapman http://www2.hud.ac.uk/staffprofiles/staffcv.php?staffid=433 so he works for the University of huddersfield.. got exams coming up ! he also says on the thread he's aware other Neptunepinkfloyd users are using multiple accounts..if your 1 of those people please contact me id love to know why your using more than 1 account to use a forum on Pinkfloyd..what is going on ?

Update on 24 november 2010 thanks wolfpack for your comment im happy to publish it, i have no problem showing both sides of an argument. Well firstly i can quite easily fill 200 pages on Syd Barrett..so far all Pink Floyd fans know of my info is a 2000 word ghostwritten article published in the Mail on Sunday a uk newspaper and a couple of articles here on my blog i felt i had to write to explain whats been going on. Wolfpack you didnt mention if you or anyone you know has ever seen Keith jordan..so have you? if you use google maps http://maps.google.com/maps you can see that the webmaster of Neptunepinkfloyd.co.uk lists his location as

Domain name:
neptunepinkfloyd.co.uk

Registrant:
Keith Jordan

Registrant type:
UK Individual

Registrant's address:
46 Glebe Lane
Farnworth
Widnes
Cheshire

then i find Rob Chapman works at

Address: W1/18
University of Huddersfield,
Queensgate,
Huddersfield, HD1 3DH

these 2 places are either side of the city of Manchester...something very very fishy seems to be going on...what are your thoughts ? who is Keith Jordan really ???? could Keith be Rob ???

Im not at all bothered Rob Chapman failed to contact me in any way what so ever regarding my input into a biography on Pink Floyd's Syd Barrett as i wouldnt have given him any info anyway..my problem with him is that he's printing lies..i know theyre lies as i grew up next door to Syd..there is no question what so ever about whether David Sore lived next door to Syd..If being in the national press making this claim completely unchallenged doesnt do it for you i dont know what would..let me know. Maybe going on something like Oprah one day and taking a lie detector test would prove things to you !

Its not hard to find a publisher when you have explosive information about one of the most famous rock groups ever ! but i research info properly unlike some people, 200 pages is nothing compared to what i can fill on what i know..youll just have to wait and see ! I will not give away info on the content of what i have to say as i expect others will be reading this who would copy my info. Wolfpack ive already said in the 2 articles on this blog that my target market is not simply Syd Barrett music fans..feel free to read my 2 articles again to see what im saying
so thanks for your comment Wolfpack your always welcome to keep me informed of what details you might want to know about in a book that has info on Syd in it..please answer my questions re who is Keith Jordan cheers

Update 25 november 2010 Wolfpack if you thing i told a uk newspaper the biggest info of what i know about Syd Barrett in a 2000 word ghostwritten article your very much mistaken ! I gave them a taste of whats really been going on to shut up the idiots going around saying Syd moved to Cambridge and lived a quiet life and was not mentally ill. Who are you really Wolfpack ? Youll understand that since i find Rob Chapman very likely to be Keith jordan and since many people using Neptunepinkfloyd seem to have hidden agenda's i prefer to know who im really speaking with. The explosive information was not in the Mail on sunday article, like i said you have no idea of what i have to reveal, anyway how did you get to read it ..where did you find it online or do you live in the uk and bought the paper ? I understand Rob chapman is very likely reading this so you wont want to challenge who Keith Jordan really is in a public blog but off the record feel free to speak to me by emailing me..i will keep what you email totally private thanks.

Wolfpack can you or anyone your in contact with that uses neptunepinkfloyd prove Rob isnt Keith ? Im angry a biographer prints lies about Syd as i saw him every day for 25 years pretty much so when a story is spun he was a pretty normal bloke yes it makes me mad. Youll have to wait for my full story to fully understand why its so upsetting.
As for Syd enjoying children its false full stop.

After his solo albums its correct Pink Floyd had nothing to do with him..if you are pulling apart a 2000 word article looking for errors etc you have to understand that a 2000 word article is highly condensed info..do you understand that? I was explaining that in the 25 years from 1981-2006 they never visited Syd once !
As for what research i need to do youve clearly never written a book before..why are you so obsessed with Syd ? again who are you really where do you live?
Yes its well know Syd Barrett is a drug casualty but whats not known is how it affected him..when you see someone daily for 25 years you know the truth.
Of course i wasnt his doctor ! but i can explain how he lived his last 25 years, its the only accurate detail of this legends last 25 years that can be told thats that, hope thatll do..but i really do wonder why you are so obsessed with Syd...please explain yourself cheers

26 November 2010 I want to know where people read the Mail on Sunday article of December 2006 by me/my ghostwriter as its got copyright protection, so kindly tell me where you saw it..thats why it matters as to where and when it was seen from. I agree that if you use neptunepinkfloyd its very wise to use it anonymously as it seems Keith Jordan is possibly some one else.

14 December 2010 i just found this very interesting article about how our brains can be delusional so ill put a link to it here to help the Syd Barrett or Pink Floyd fans having a problem accepting the truth coming out from me about Syd http://newsjunkiepost.com/2010/12/13/how-our-brains-threaten-democracy-the-science-behind-self-delusion/

Update on 6 January 2011
this is my reply to anonymouse ( his comment to me is below in the comments section of this article by me ) you sent me a link about how some people claim Syd Barrett was autistic and had synaesthesia ! this is the article http://incorrectpleasures.blogspot.com/2009/11/interesting-case-of-syd-barrett-for.html written by Lilli marlene who ive never heard of. The most famous autistic person most people will have seen is the character Dustin Hoffman played in the exellent film Rainman, so my first reply is that Syd Barrett was not autistic, who on earth says he was ? Barrett's brain was exceptional but his drug use destroyed its brilliance very quickly. Syd barrett did not leave an estate worth over 1.5 million pounds to his siblings, they helped themselves to his money, he did not leave it to them they decided it was ok to say he was mentally ill when it suited them so they could grab his cash, just read what his family said before that he wasnt ever mentally ill, then knowing he'd not written a will they declare him mentally ill and incapable of writting a will and thus sign over all his money to themselves ! . Syd smoked cannabis and used LSD and theres no doubt cannabis alone can cause serious mental problems so the author of this article does understand about the effects drugs have on the human brain.

I myself have previously said that the conclusion Syd Barrett delevoped Scizophrenia isnt fully acurate ill not be expanding on this here and now. I cant take anything a Barrett family claims as gospel due to repeated lies theyve told the media, so claiming he was examined and found to be sane means nothing to me...get me a lie detector machine and ill find out what they really know. Dont forget 1 of the biographys on Syd Barrett contradicts this completely as Syd was taken to see R.D Laing who said he was incurable.
Roger waters came very close to acuratly labelling Syd Barrett's illness as Scizophrenia based on his observations, and likewise when i release my full story youll be able to judge for yourselves after hearing about everything ive witnessed.

Syd's withdrawal was not a nervous breakdown ! what nonsense.
As for Syd getting on with kids give me a break kids were terrified of him. Syd didnt choose to leave the big bad music business he became unable to perform and ran out of ideas. The article ends with "many questions about his life will remain forever unanswered. Don't you love a mystery" ? well its not going to be such a mystery when im finished. I find it interesting that someone claiming to have known Syd between 1989-1991 called autumn leaves in the comments section of lilli marlene's article is from http://www.syd-barrett-trust.org.uk/ which was founded by rosemary Breen Syd Barrett's sister ! so who is autumn leaves really ? the more you delve into who benefits from portraying Syd as a lovable recluse who was good at art the more obvious the lies become.

Finally anonymouse said i find it unlikely youll find a publisher maybe its time to move on..your not the first person to say this to me so im wondering why are people afraid of what i have to say ? why would you want me to move on and not publish my information? who are you really and what self interest are you trying to protect ? Some of you seem very afraid of what im going to release, if you cant handle the truth of what Syd Barrett became i suggest you stop following any and all information about him as in the end it all leads to who really knows what happened, who saw him daily for 25 years while he was no longer in Pink Floyd ? the answer is me.
1 last thing i agree id prefer not to have needed to publish the address of Neptunepinkfloyd's address but Keith Jordan who ever he may be needs investigating as does Rob Chapman and the claims he makes in his so called biography on Syd written with biased guidance from some members of the Barrett family and Rob Chapman's book contains out and out lies which makes me question just how much of the information in his book A very irregular head is true. Radha lived in Syd's old street ! nonsense and Rob Chapman says Ian Barrett claims to have known this fictional person !, i wonder which section of a book shop Rob's book should be in ?

Pinkfloyd's Syd Barrett by David Sore (article 65)

2006-12-04T03:52:00.010Z

David c Sore born in 1975 was Syd Barrett 's neighbour for decades, he has unique insight into the reclusive rock star, some of his story was published in the Mail on Sunday newspaper in the UK on Sunday 3rd of December 2006 this however is not the full story there is far more to the story than got published, many bizarre incidents have been witnesses, some scary some funny but all add up to the only truthfully recollection of what Syd Barrett did after he left PinkFloyd , this is info that will come to light when i want it to. Thanks for all enquiries Ive had from the media Ive now decided how i will release the full story so you'll just have to wait now , ill let you know here on my blog when the info will be coming out so bookmark my website in your browsers and check back when you want to. Syd's biographers and other media have been fed a lot of lies about Syd by certain people wishing to gloss over the truth of how badly drugs messed him up, i am happy to set the record straight to help prevent anyone else ending up how he did.

I am getting comments from people saying why are you saying this?, Syd never did anything to you.. now if you've read the Mail on Sunday article you'll have got a very small taste of what I've had to endure for decades, as I said this is just the tip of the iceberg..far worse has happened over the years which will come to light, i am a PinkFloyd fan and a fan of Syd's music but if you bother to read biography's on Syd you ought to know he's been mentally ill since around 1968, the reason i am willing to unleash the facts of what happened to Syd are simple..i grew up next door to him, ( I've experienced situations no child should ever have to ) I've had a very very mentally ill/unstable/terrifying man as a neighbor, by all accounts no member of PinkFloyd have had any contact with him since they had to drop him from PinkFloyd due to him becoming mad by using loads of drugs...mainly LSD and Cannabis. ( the 1975 incident was Syd going to see them unannounced and uninvited ) Its all very well occasionally checking a royalty checks been sent to Syd..but he barely got ANY of this money....more on this in the future, also no PinkFloyd members EVER visited him. ( Syd Barrett fans use your wisdom to judge what this means ) by this i mean they knew he was mad and saw no point in going to see him.
People say PinkFloyd and Syd Barrett's family protected him...Where's your proof ? name names and what help you have knowledge of, don't post anonymous comments if you expect me to take you seriously. I am not going into detail here( that will be in the book I'm writing ) all i can say now is your very naive and wrong about the whole situation, ask yourself how you would know what you claim to know. Stop looking at my story from a Syd Barrett the musicians fans point of view and open up your intelligence ( if you can ) to try and see what i am trying to get across.
Ive had friends ruined by drugs some becoming catatonic ( in 1995 ) , others homeless and mentally ill, i have even had friends die from drugs, add all i have had to endure from Roger ( Syd ) Barrett and what you get is me.. someone with a massive amount of understanding of how seriously bad drugs are, anyone thinking i am in this purely for money is only portraying their own greedy jealous ideas, you seem to see only money making as my motive, when i am trying to warn people about illegal drugs effects.

The mail article was edited by someone other than me, once i have had my full say in my book you'll get the whole picture, don't judge me on a short abbreviated article which includes some info i didn't say! I more than ANY Syd Barrett fan have far more compassion for him than you ever will..your just fans of his music, i have witnesses what he's had to go through YOU HAVE NOT, so be thankful the truths finally coming out . My main aim is to stop people ending up like Syd Barrett and put a stop to other people lies that Syd' s been living a quiet peaceful life in Cambridge...yeah right and Baghdad Iraq is a good place for UK and American tourists to go for a picnic !!! .I hope true Syd fans now understand where i am coming from, please stay off drugs unless you want to become mentally ill, its as simple as that, best wishes for a drug free happy life from me.

Ill now post a link for you lot to read so those of you with no previous knowledge of Syd's troubles can see that I'm telling the truth about Syd for good reason, once you've read it all by all means bookmark my website in your browser and use the comments button to send me your new opinion on the Mail on Sunday article of December 3 2006, there are some half truths and lies in this article only his neighbor's could know but a lot of it is accurate enough... http://observer.guardian.co.uk/magazine/story/0,11913,804928,00.html

by all means leave a comment on this article ( mine and this observer one) if you include your email address in a comment this would be online for all to see..and you'll get loads of spam emails . I have spam filters so if you want to email me do so my email address is on this site.

UPDATE on 27 July 2007 i have published a comment i got from someone telling me to read a book called a fish out of water which has comments from Syd Barrett's sister in it... quite frankly in a way i agree maybe Syd Barrett's serious mental problems were not just simply schizophrenia but some of his behaviour was very close to this, his brain was seriously messed up by drugs to such an extent a simple label of 1 mental illness may not be entirely accurate. But please don't just believe any statements just because they come from a family member ( no offence rosemary ) . Open your mind and think about what you would tell the media if your family member went mad..ever heard of only giving out half truths???
Update done august 2007.. to the fools who do not believe what i told a national newspaper please get a life Syd Barrett hardly spoke to anyone thanks to his messed up brain..most probably due to his cannabis use in the 60s..its now scientifically proven cannabis causes people to become catatonic. If you still think i am some how attacking Syd Barrett your extremely stupid and probably have an IQ of under 75. Syd Barrett's crazy nasty behaviour in the 1980's..and i mean every year was like having the neighbor from hell he should have been in a mental hospital for his own sake let alone those who lived so close and saw and heard all his insane goings on. I think there will always be extremely stupid people when it comes to celebrities, no matter what truth is told about someone famous there will always be morons who refuse to believe the truth.. why can't they get a life? how can they possibly know whats true or not about a man they have never met, never helped in any way while he lived a terrible existence due to drugs, or never lived next to during the time he was at his worst in terms of his severe mental problems? If you care about Syd Barrett ad mental problems i suggest you go help out at a drug prevention charity or mental health charity or go see a mental hospital and see people messed up by drugs...i still expect some idiots will write comments to me saying how can you say this..what can i do? the worlds full of stupid people..many stupid due to their drug use or because their parents used drugs and its affected them via their genes. Ive highlighted the truth of Syd Barrett in a newspaper, explaining his horrible life after PinkFloyd and i have done immense good already i have told many millions of people via the media what drugs can do to a man, and i am 100% sure ill have prevented many people from trying drugs...to the very few morons being nasty to me in pathetic anonymous comments ( they cant even have the balls to show who they really are, or haven't the computer skills to figure out how to show their real name ) carry on in your stupid dream world imagining Syd Barrett lived a normal life, carry on believing the cover up told to biographers that he more or less lived a normal life, to the vast majority of people who can tell i am telling the truth please could you tell me what can i say to turn the morons who don't believe I'm trying to help prevent drug induced mental illness into accepting the truth?

update on January 21 2009, i just had an anonymous comment from someone claiming to have known me all my life ( which is clearly very inaccurate ) they say "would i know enough about you to write a book" ? No you wouldn't. You certainly wouldn't have enough for a book as you have never been in the situation i was in with Syd Barrett..you see you have no idea whats happened i only told you a tiny number of incidents, you have absolutely no idea what secrets i have to spill, fortunately for me my book publisher sees a huge market for my insights , so the fact you think no one would read it is a sad pathetic comment coming from a place of either anger towards me for other reasons or jealousy or both. The person who wrote to me clearly has a grudge and is an ex friend, ( called Mark ) i know who you are and i know all to well about the mental illness you suffered from drug use, i truly hope you get over the fact i cant be your friend again and i hope you move on with your life and get the help you need.

update Feb 4 2009 spud your old fsmail email doesnt exist anymore. You ignored my phone call to your vodaphone mobile. The police are now involved. I suggest you use www.joeapology.com to apologize to me . Let me know if you use this so i can go read what you have to say.
Update on April 9 2009 my reply to to the person saying when is your book out mister big mouth.... first its Mr not mister ( you spell like an old African friend of mine !, where are you and who are you?) ill answer you if you don't post anonymously

Update on April 26 2009 my reply to Mark Anglesey 's comment i got on April 26..well Mark what I've said in this blog isn't overly remarkable.. i agree ! I'm hardly going to give away the juicy info i have on here for free when i'm putting it all into a book...please use you brain more when analyzing information. His ( Roger Barrett's ) behaviour would get any one sectioned these days..but as a child id have had no idea about how to inform the authority's about someone behaving the way he did... so ill ask have your read the Mail on Sunday article?? that helps explain things a bit more than I've said on my blog. People who admire a "wayward lifestyle" as you put it maybe admire his hippy like existence but unfortunately have been severely mislead into believing he lived a sort of normal life...again read the newspaper article to get a glimpse of the real truth about what sort of things really happened. I couldn't care less if Syd Barrett fans are even told about my book..your missing the point, this isn't a book targeting PinkFloyd/Syd Barrett fans ! As for Roger Barrett's gardening your making me laugh..yet again i say read the mail on Sunday article or buy my book when its released..based on all your comments i wonder if your really called Mark Anglesey..i suspect your another Mark i know , a person with no friends what so ever who's holding a silly grudge against me who cant stand the fact i don't ever want to be his friend anymore due to his personality changing for the worse due to his drug use.

Update on August 16 2009 I still get the odd angry anonymous comment about this article, someone keeps saying my writing style is bad...well point out something you think is bad and ill go over it with you..simply copy and paste a paragraph you thinks badly written and send it in a comment to me pointing out what you thinks wrong. You may also point me to something you have written to show me your superior writing style. The accusing person ( Mark s) says people post anonymously as they don't want to be associated with me .. in your case Mark s your correct ill never have anything to do with you again you clearly need to contact your doctor and ask for treatment. If you think anyone's embarrassed by what i have to say about Syd i am glad as the whole world should be embarrassed by what Syd became. Every one i know that knows you Mark says how odd you became and that's why they all stopped being friends with you. Your so ignorant about why its important to expose mental illness as suffered by Syd because you've suffered yourself, in your twisted mind you see me as a threat for pointing out just how bad mental illness is, i hope you can get the help you need and become normal again.

Oh and expect a visit from the Police !, yes i can screenwrite, yes i can race cars, yes im great with pc advice so are you jealous you have no talents???? and what are you ? a mad person who digs in the dirt !

should we bring back the death penalty to the uk ? ( article 64)

2006-11-27T15:02:00.001Z

Before you read this article a word to Syd fans who read this article..if you disagree with punishments i think the following crimes should get use the comments button at the bottom of the article to say what punishment you think is appropriate for each crime i mention or just some of them, don't sit back and do nothing join the debate here, if u disagree with what i say say why. If reading this info changes your mind about me from at first being thankful for letting you know the real situation Syd was in to now thinking this guy is scum..explain why you change your opinion..or is it because your the type of person i have the balls to openly say may deserve the death penalty??

Recent media coverage of certain vile cases prompted me to write this..eg the appalling case where a young girl playing in her bath near Newcastle UK had a paedophile who was supposed to be being monitored in the community broke into the child's home, abducted her in his car repeatedly sexually assaulted her and then dumped her naked in a back ally..now if that's not the type of scum that deserves to be hung i don't know what is...quite how anyone could be so weak minded as to say no one deserves to be hung is beyond me..its due to weak minded idiots that think that way that the uk's such a seriously risky place for everyone now, there's over 40,000 people in the UK on the sex offenders register! I hold people who wouldn't bring back the death penalty responsible for past and future crimes committed by the list of evil scum i list further down..by not speaking up to your mp's, by not protesting to reinstate hanging you allow our stupid laws to keep letting people off very serious offences...only to do it all again.

I think we should bring back hanging to the UK justice system as soon as possible, because we don't hang evil scum anymore our jails our severely overcrowded. This means lesser criminals now get a slap on the wrist.. aka a warning which is a joke to them and a huge insult to victims of crime. Not only that but also we've all heard of early release.. criminals serving fractions of their sentences..again because prisons are full to capacity, their sentences are usually pathetically low in the first place so letting them out early is a massive insult to crime victims and means society's full of criminals who should be locked up.

Death is the ultimate punishment, hanging the worst offenders in the UK removes their threat to all of us, and dead people don't commit further offenses..something governments don't seem to understand. Dead people cant talk to cell mates and spread their evil thoughts and influence.
Dead people cant escape from prison or walk out of open prisons!!. Dead people don't cost taxpayers £25k- £100k each per year to keep in jail ( 25000 pounds to 100,000 pounds)..the money saved can be used to punish and PREVENT future crimes from taking place. Dead scum bags cant talk to relatives/visitors/the media and sell their story's or get them published.

Clever/devious defence lawyers can find ways to get even the the most guilty off free due to minor technicality's..if we've hung the guilty evil people it wont matter if someone didn't quite follow silly unnecessary procedures in catching the evil criminals.

Victims wont live in fear their attacker will be released/escape or come back to get them again as the really evil dangerous criminals will be dead.

The following is who i think should be hung..
paedophiles.. anyone who's sexually attacked children, groomed them via the Internet, deliberately downloaded child porn..they're guilty of causing children to be abused for the photos to be made.

rapists.. whether stranger rapes, drug use rapes eg so called date rape drugs were used or any case that can be proven was rape..ill work to get lie detector tests compulsory for attackers to help forensics piece together watertight cases, we can even use truth drugs like the CIA use to interrogate people to help get to the truth.

Murderers..goes without saying just how dangerous these type of people are, but cases where it was self defense obviously will be investigated and the innocent should get a second chance.
Drink or drug using drivers who kill...its time we stopped letting selfish dangerous drivers off the hook, killing someone by accident doesn't lesser the impact of killing innocent people through someones extremely reckless behaviour.

Dangerous drivers who kill..joyriders/car thieves who kill or seriously injure or speeders who cause serious accidents.

major drug dealers should either be hung or used for drug testing experiments!! instead of poor out of work healthy people volunteering to be guinea pigs for pharmaceutical company's to test new medicines lets give drug dealers the choice..be locked in prison for life and be used for testing medicines or choose to be hung, this option saves healthy innocent people from being risked by pharmaceutical company's and the untold millions of animals currently used to test medicines and household products for human safety..let the sellers of brain damaging, mental illness causing misery get a taste of their own medicine!

Kidnappers deserve to be hung

serious child abusers..people who hit and injure children badly arn't worthy of life

Illegal weapons importers and sellers

Serious disease spreaders eg anyone who knowingly passes on aids/HIV to anyone deliberately without the victims knowledge

Terrorists

Anyone involved in forcing anybody to work as a prostitute

Child porn producers and distributors..including anyone who publishes this vile material on the Internet

Vile pornography creators, sellers and publishers whether online or not..eg images depicting rape and violence against anyone

Pornography spam senders ..anyone sending unsolicited emails showing porn needs to be hung

Serious blackmailers who made peoples lives a misery

Stalkers who caused serious misery to their victims..including Cyber stalkers who sometimes hide behind anonymous web site comments.

People traffickers..we've got 500,000 to 1 million people living illegally in the UK already anyone who's knowingly brought people here illegally should be hung as the consequences of hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants in the UK is immense..from untold crime committed by people with nothing to the massive economic costs to society.

Anyone who deliberately sells waste food as fit for human consumption eg the scum who sod diseases bacteria infested rotting chicken waste that was due to be disposed of, but instead to make money they sold the chicken waste as normal chicken..this got into the food chain causing untold numbers of people food poisoning. You deserve to be hung !

bad polluters..anyone who knowingly causes environmental disasters to avoid safe disposal costs deserves to be hung..lets say if clean up costs of a deliberate pollution incident costs over £100k or more those people who authorised the pollution to be carried out should be hung.

Human organ thieves must be hung..this really does happen sometimes.people are drugged and wake up having had say a kidney removed to be sold on the black market..this is truly worthy of anyone involved being hung

Now this is a rough idea of who deserves the death penalty..if you think of anyone else who deserves the death penalty use the comment s button to leave a comment on your ideas..keep it really brief please. I'm seeking anyone's help in restoring the death penalty to the UK..if you can talk to your mp, write to mps, campaign in your local press..again any ideas use the comments button. if you simply wish to send money so i can finance publicising why we need to bring back hanging please use paypal.com to pay filmstorywriter@yahoo.co.uk, if you wish to comment on bringing back the death penalty via emailing me put lets bring back hanging in the emails subject line or i wont open it.

Internet/pc help in cambridge area ( article 63 )

2006-03-09T14:49:00.000Z

Hello my names David and my computer help is available to home computer users in the cambridge area,( if your small business requires help do call also ) if you live around the cambridge area thats within roughly a 30 minute drive from the center of cambridge cambridgeshire i should also be able to provide you with my services. If your a little further ill probably still be able to help but you'll have to book more hours of my time in one go so its worthwhile me spending time travelling out futher than my usual area, just call me on 07963 348582 or use skype to call davethepcman .

If you wish to use my services which offers the discresion of a butler with a very intelligent service my prices are very resonable at just £25 an hour ( considering the cost of living in cambridge goes up weekly and even living in a carboard box in cambridge probably requires a 25 year mortage! ) and my main working hours of availability will be 9am-8pm monday to friday , saturdays and sundays i charge £35 an hour if i work between 9am and 5pm as you'll be causing me to miss beer and football ! and if you require service outside of those hours in an emergency this will cost £50 an hour from 8pm-8am monday to friday eg if your pc goes wrong and you need it working by the morning and you need me go without sleep to fix it ! again weekends out of hours is £50 an hour.

My initial fee will be £25 per hour Please call 07963 348582 to book me if i cant answer leave a voice message with your name and phone numbers.landline, mobile, and skype username if you use this free voip phonecall system, and your work number so i can get back to you or please try calling me again untill you get through.

Once you've used my services im sure youll be telling family and friends to use my services, please start telling pc/internet users you know to look at my website and decide what help they need.

I offer muddle free practical advice in easy to understand language, a set up service to install computers/printers /extra memory and software needed to use the internet safely and securely , tuition on using computers and the internet suitable for beginers to more experienced users such as how to find information on the internet and how to shop online from many types of shops from auction services to supermarkets , how to avoid phishing scams..fake emails sent to trick you out of financial details and a problem solving service such as diagnosing errors you experience with your pc and fixing them. I can write down my steps to doing tasks for you while im with you so that i taylor my advice for each individual and i can write a list of tasks you need to do daily/weekly and monthly so you'll be aware of the tasks you need to do reguarly to keep your pc in tip top condition and virus free so its safe to use.This is at no extra cost and itll mean when i leave you you will have the ability to use your computer like a master.

To give you an idea of Some of the common tasks im asked to perform ive written the following list of services i reguarly get called to do for home pc users in the cambridge area...

1. Set up a new computer package from scratch..ok so you bought a pc package from a store now what! well from opening the boxes your new pc came in to connecting it all up and getting the computer up and running for the first time i can do this for you.

2. Advice on choosing a computer either a desktop or laptop/notebook pc such as what specifications i recommend a client should need in each of the many specifications new computers have eg how much memory you will need to run certain tasks and how much hard disk space you will need to hold your information on, i can also advise on where to buy ink for your printers for far less than high street store prices seeing as ink is an expensive consumable product. I can explain all the unhelpful terms pc makers put in their adverts yet never explain!

3. Setting up an internet service eg a broadband connection,once you have ordered broadband from an isp ( internet service provider) such as btyahoo (british telecom) when your modem package arives i can set this up to get your computer up and using the internet, i have experience of setting up many different isps software and modems, many people get stuck doing this, so dont get stressed call me. Just 1 in 5 uk homes get the speed of service they pay for.. i can test what your actually given by your isp. Some isp's now give away basic computers if you sign up to lobger deals with them..again book me and ill explain it all.

4. I can advise you on choosing an isp, from explaining exactly what you need to look for in an isp to current prices they charge and what you will get from the package they offer you eg they may offer you 8mb broadband for £17.99 a month with a 2gb a month limit..if you dont understand what any of that means..call me! dont choose a service in ignorance some are very restrictive in what they allow you to do and many isps offer very bad service so choose wisely. Many isps also tie you into a 1 year contract so if you dont choose wisely youll be stuck using a bad service for a long time. Also many take ages to help you if you phone them if they help you at all and some put you through to indain call centers where some staff are almost impossible to understand due to heavy accents and poor phone lines.

5. I offer tuition and guidance on everything i know including using microsoft windows based computers and how to install and use all the many different software packages you must have to be able to use the internet safely to avoid getting viruses that destroy all your computer files and information, if you have been given a pc and all you have is the os ( operating system) eg windows xp and there is nothing else on it so you cant yet do anything..im the man to call . Just as it takes time for a builder to build an extension on a house or a painter and decorator to renovate a room for you, putting all the software you need on a pc takes time..i can give free estimates depending on what you need , to use the internet properly and safely and have all the software most people need to make full use of the internet i personally have around 40 different software programmes installed on my home computer, if you wanted me to install all 40 programmes i recommend you use and teach you to use them all it would take a full week to do properly i can do this full package of software setups for £800 .
If you cant be at home while im working in your home eg during weekdays im happy for you to record me on camcorders or home cctv if that makes you more comfortable..i think this is perfectly fine for you to do as i want you to trust me to get on with the work in your home. If you dont want to have me in your home you can drop your pc off to me and ill install all the software from my home, ill then call you when its ready to take back.

As installing all programmes i recomend takes time and i want to work normal hours if your work patterns compliment when i want to work thats perfect if not this full setup could be done on days you have off or some evenings after work or some weekends)..its up to you ill be as flexible as i can to fit in my services to the times you could be at home to be shown how to use all 40 programmes. If you just want me to install everything without you watching everything i d0 itll take more like 25 hours to complete.

I especially teach people how to use the internet and its many brilliant resources. eg using price comparison websites so you can buy a product at the lowest price possible, how to buy and sell on ebay the auction website, how to get a free email account and use email and much much more. look at my article numbered 42 by clicking on my archives on the righthand side of my homepage to find article 42 on the best websites i use..if you want help on using any of those shops or services im the person to call. I can show you things like how to save pictures you find on websites to create your own collection so you can run a slide show on your computer and later burn onto cds/dvds to give to people. How to set up and bank online..many people do this but it is risky but useful and possible if you follow all my advice to get and use all the software you'll need to do this safely. I can show you how to bet online at better odds than any real world betting shop, how to rent dvds online for far cheaper than in a dvd rental shop..and how to get trials of these services so you can view many films for free!.

6. I offer tuition and advice on how to install software products in your pc and how to configure it so its up and running and doing its job properly..for example just because your new pc comes with antivirus doesnt mean when you switch your computer on that you have antivirus up and running properly! it takes time and effort to get it all running and protecting you properly. My guide and principles can be applied across many differnet software packages so you wont need tuition on every different piece if software you end up using, if your willing to learn i can teach you the basics of installing software yourself. Another big thing to understand is how to patch windows pc's. Every month microsoft issues patches which are newly written software packages to fix the endless flaws in its products..failing to install these patches can be disasterous as viruses exploit these holes in windows pc's to cause mayhem.

7. I can reinstall your operating system eg windows xp if the worsts come to the worst and somethings corrupted essential files your computer needs to work effectivly, this is a last resort but unfortunatly has to be done sometimes.( which is why you must backup the files you want to keep every few days) I can install for you the following..antivirus (essential to have if you use the internet) to protect your computer from computer viruses and trojan horses....small pieces of software designed to damage your data sent to you buy criminals, a firewall which blocks all kinds of junk information and damaging software from getting into your pc, hackers can turn your pc into a zombie, a machine they control to use to send out spam junk mail effectively robbing you of your computers resources..they have taken it over and use it to do automatic processes to attack big businesses or distribute spam..so an effective firewall is absolutely essential if you connect to the internet..without a firewall your pc will be infected within minutes of connecting to the internet!,i can install browsers..the software you use to view websites..i can get you a browser set up thats far more secure than microsofts internet explorer, i can import your favorite bookmarks you have saved in internet explorer over to the new browser so you wont need to bookmark all your favorite sites again. (a browser is essential for using the internet), i can install instant messenger software so you can chat by typing messages for as long as you want for free! and the recipient sees what you typed instantly, i install voip software so you can make free phonecalls from your pc to anyone in the world for as long as you want,yes really!!, i can install graphics software so graphics on websites are displayed properly...these can be animations and moving images many websites incorporate into there webpages to make there sites look good, i can install a form filling software package so it fills in forms for you at the touch of a button so if you often give out your name and address to request brochures or freebies online this will save you a lot of typing, i can install for you cd and dvd burning software so you can make cds or dvds i can make cds for you also to show you how to do it yourself, ill also show how to avoid wasting endless blank disks due to problems the software that burns the data to disks can run into i can point out what you need to do to avoid wasting lots of disks.

I can show how to download music/videos, software/ebooks and audiobooks from the internet legally so you can put it onto blank cds or mp3 players i can recommend websites and software to do this i can install all the popular main media players so you can play video clips from websites/listen to music/listen to internet radio stations, i can install software that displays the content of your hard drive as a graph so you can see what files are taking up the most space and you can use this to delete the files you no longer need., I can install common programmes you need to read commonly sent document files and to display parts of websites coded in different types of software that allow you to see graphics and animations that appear as a blank portion on a website if you do not have the correct software installed to display these enhancements to websites.. Another essential type of software i can install is antispyware..this is absolutely crucial to have its as crucial to have as antivirus software because spyware gets past your antivirus softwares detection rules! spyware is things like keystoke loggers..software criminals send to your pc to record everything you type so they can steal your bank account details/passwords for websites to hijack your accounts and your credit/debit card details, i personally use a number of different antispyware products all at the same time to block spyware getting into my pc and also to scan and remove anything that does get in..remember criminals are creating new viruses and spyware every day so you must have the very latest defences or you will get infected and could loose everything in your pc..all your photos/music/videos/written files you've saved everything can be destroyed by viruses and spyware!. There are endless companys making antispyware products but many are poor, i can give you some exellent free software if you book me to come help you. Another brilliant thing i can show you to do is how to record internet radio stations..until recently something you couldnt do..so no more 90minute audio cassettes now you can listen to radio on your pc from anywhere in the world and then record hours of your favorite radio programmes to your pcs hard drive and later on back them up to cd/dvd

Most of the software i described above i can get you for free so ill only charge you for tuition to guide you through installing these programmes yourself, step by step in simple steps or i can do it for you. If there is any software i tell you to use that youll have to buy ill tell you way in advance so you can decide if you want to get it.

8. A very common request i get is for me to come and scan a clients computer to hunt for and remove spyware and viruses/trojans, solve problems..any pc niggles your experiencing give me a call on 07963 348582 and ill see what i can do, i can research how to solve a problem if you are stuck removing 1 particular type of virus/trojan or spyware...considering there are over 150,000 different types of computer virus in circulation! there are times when even extremely competent pc experts need to call in help to solve a problem so dont get too stressed when your pc plays up..you are not alone you can call on me to help you out.

9. I can create a business website name for you and advise on buying a domain name.. eg www.ebay.co.uk is a domain name i can create a unique powerful name to help you market yourself online and offline i can colaborate with you and advise you on tips and tricks to coinsider when creating a name so youll know whats useful to know about domain names and how they work and why some are worth millions of pounds and why a name alone can get you more business!

10. I can show you how to set up a simple website like this one our on now for no cost, i can guide you through all the steps there are to creating a simple blog website, how to get adverts on it , how to count visitors to your site and simple marketing techniques to get visitors to your site.Just 1 in 3 small businesses have a website, id say all businesses need a website as the old ways of finding info such as phonebooks and yellowpages are overtaken by people searching online for info..let me make you a simple website in a few hours..again we can discuss your needs on the phone or skype.

11. I can clean desktop pc's internally and externally and keyboards and computer mice..its amazing how much dust and dirt gets inside computers..failing to keep a pc in good condition can cause problems and lowering of performance of a pc and itll make less noise if its clean.

12. You can call me for advice on what software you need to perform a certain task..as well a the many dozens of programmes im very used to installing im also well aware of a huge number of other programmes people use, i can recomend programmes for you and tell you where to get them from..again many times ill be able to get you an official genuine version of a programme for free.

13. I can offer phone support to guide you step by step through problems and installations of software if you cant wait for me to visit your home to fix a problem, many pc manufacturers and sellers charge £1-£1.50 a minute to there own customers which equates to £60-£90 an hour! and many times their service isnt helpful, i find it far better to sit by a client and explain things to them in person but if you absolutely cant wait for me to visit you you can use my phone support .Call my usual number 07963 348582 i charge £7.50 for up to 15 minutes and £7.50 per 15 minutes. You can pay me in advance so you can still call my normal phone number or you can pay me using paypal.com to send a payment from a credit or debit card to my email address which is filmstorywriter@yahoo.co.uk i must be paid on time or i will charge extra for late payers, ( £10 fee if not paid within 7 days ) paypal allows you to make an instant payment to someones email address of any amount. Paypal is easy to join and use so i recomend people to use this to pay me for phone support, that way i can check people have paid me in advance for my services.

The internet and computer industry evolves at a frightening pace, its been said 1 year in the computer industry is equivalent to at least 10 years in any other industry in terms of how much research and development goes on in it. This means home pc users often struggle to keep up with the latest software as its constantly being revised and perfected..you must keep getting the newer versions of software to fix the flaws in older releases..this is an endless job ! I can honestly say that to keep the 40 programmes of software i use up to date therby fixing the flaws security researchers find in them means i need to install software probably every week..it is an endless thing you need to do..just as you need to keep buying fresh food weekly so to you must keep getting the latest versions of the software you use. I can teach you all you need to step in to the worldwideweb ( WWW) and happily make use of its endless resources. There are tens of millions of websites now , ive listed a few hundred ive used in the past to get you started hunting around the internet In article42 in my archives ( i number each article i write so you can write down which of my articles contain info you want if you ever want to go back to it..the lower the number the older it is in terms of when it was first written..but i do update articles so although article42 my list of useful sites began in september 2005 it is up to date as i updated it in august 2007) To find my archives look at my homepage ( the webpage my website displays to you first at www.beingahuman.blogspot.com read the article down the right hand side explaining whats in this website then look lower down the right side and youll see my archives listed in date order, please take a look through them andif you spot an advert on my site that may be useful to you feel free to click it and go look at what ever was offered to you in the advert, then when youve looked at that come back to my site , i hope you book me to teach you about the internet and computers and to solve your computer problems all the best from david

The best ways to use the internet(article 62) done jan 2006

2006-01-24T17:34:00.000Z

ive placed ? question marks where i once told people the answers as i now offer pchelp in cambridge area so i dont want to give away the info for free anymore!

I find the internet to be the most useful invension ever and here im going to share with you the main things you can do once your at an internet enabled computer, i hope you find this useful and my article gets you to try at least 1 new thing that you can do online, by all means leave me feedback by pressing the comments button at the end of the article and giving me feedback on this article.

1. Email which is electronic mail is the king of the internet, it gives you the chance to send a letter to someone anywhere in the world in seconds for free!. I recomend using ? free email service at ? where you get a free email address with 1 gigabyte of storage space..enough to hold many thousands of emails if you ever wish to keep loads of emails. alternative free email services are ? which only gives 5megabites storage still enough to keep a few hundred emails) but has a spam filter ( spam is junk unwanted emails evil people send you without your permission) so you can block unwanted emails. You can attach digital photos to emails but remember attachments in emails are the number 1 way people get computer viruses so make sure you always scan attachments with antivirus software before you open any attachment ..even if its from your friends.

2. File sharing..transfering music,videos and ebooks to your computer using p2p networks ( peer to peer) napster started this off in 1999 illegally allowing people to swap mp3 music files that are copyright restricted..this became hugely popular as millions of people started downloading all the music they wanted for free!. this spawned many huge copycat services like kazaa, morpheus, bearshare,limewire,bittorent,grokster,and edonkey.Many legal services now exist if you wish to buy music in its digital formats like mp3 such services as itunes.com, napster (now its legitimate..a company bought the name napster to use it for legally available music), dotmusic.com and many others though itunes is the most popular online music service. Many p2p networks have recently been closed down after the music industry took them to court for allowing people to steal music but it has to be said even now in 2006 many huge networks still exist so just about any music or video you want you can still get for free. If you upload ( allow others to make copys of your files) record companies may sue you! but if you donload ( take files from others) there a very small chance youll get in trouble. I will do a seperate article on how to use p2p services soon.

3. search engines are how you find information on the world wide web ( www) at the top of my website www.beingahuman.blogspot.com ive installed the google searchbar so you can type in the words you wish to search for and googles search engine then searches electronically through billions of webpages to find the most relevant results for you, the most relevant link to the information you searched for is shown at the top of the results page, as results get lower down the page and even go to further pages of results the acuracy of the information you sought will go down, also you will see sponspored adverts on the right hand side where advertisers pay to show there websites next to results for certain words eg if you type in dvd rental into google youll get a list of companys that allow you to hire dvds by post so companys that offer these services also pay to advertise in this location as you would be thier target shopper..they pay google everytime someone clicks on their advert. other search engines exist such as yahoo, altavista, ask.com etc but googles is the most acurate in the world so use my websites google search bar whenever you need to use a search engine.

4. Online shopping , the ability to type your card details into a website and order products online means you can shop 24 hours a day 7 days a week globally! before you do trust this way of shopping you must read my articles on shopping safely online, go to my archives to find articles numbered 9 , 10 and 12 these explain the risks of online shopping and teach you what you must do to make shopping online safe.
You can bank online,gamble in casinos or betting shops, book tickets for planes, hire dvds and shop on millions of websites for anything you want...its no different to home shopping in the past when people shopped via catalogues and phones.just remember postage isnt often included in prices and so make surethe bargain you think your getting still is when youve added postage costa and insurance..as things can go missing or get damaged..also if you shop on a website thats in another country remember you may have to pay taxes and customs duty which you may only find out you need to pay when the pastman knocks on your door to deliver your goods!. For example im in the uk england and ordered shoes for a relative from an american website for a bargain price, however when the postman brought them i was told i had to pay $20 customs import charge..the shop selling me the shoes didnt bother to tell me this would happen so my bargain wasnt!

5. Free text messages..mobile phones are brilliant but not every one has one and not everyone checks their email daily if you really want to get a short message to someone textings brilliant as most people are never more than a few feet away from their mobile so they will hear it beep when a message is recieved. in the uk its only 5-10p per text but if you want 6 free texts a day or 180 a month roughly use ? if your in the uk, you can then add your friends mobile numbers into this servise and send text messages from your computer..as your typing the message at a computer you can use up all the space your given in a text message intead of slowly pressing your mobiles keys and sending pathetically short messages to save time on typing! you can select to send the message from your phones number so the person your sending the message to knows its from you..they can then reply to you from there phone or they to could go online and use the-raft.com to text you back free. To begin doing this go to the-raft.com and move the homepage( the first website page you arrive on) down and near to the bottom left is a coloured bar sayng the rafts free text service, click on that and follow their instructions to set up a free account and thats it now you can send text messages for free..yes you may thank me!.

6. Internet radio stations..wow millions of radio stations you wouldnt be able to hear without the internet are now available to listen to, you can find free radio stations playing any category of music you like most will require you to get a realplayer or windows media player..see my next article on software i recommend you get.If you have a briadbang connection ( high speed internet access) the sound quality will be great, if your on a dial up connection forget it it wont work ok.i recommend www.bbc.co.uk/radio1 then find the essential mix webpage and click on the listen again player..this will then play you a 2 hour mix of music by one of the worlds best djs..this show is broadcast on the radio every week from 1-3am sunday mornings ( saturday night into sunday morning) and is world renouned for its brilliant shows i you like dance/house/trance/breakbeats/drum and bass listening to these shows will seriously improve your knowledge of the best djs on this planet and expand your musical tastes and knowledge, if you miss the live broadcast from 1-3am sunday you go to the website ive just told you and listen again anytime in the next 7 days.It is also now possible to record internet radio..again read my next article to see waht software to get to be able to do this.

7. Instant messenges with free phone calls! amazing if you want to make free phone calls to anywhere in the world its now possible get ? software then youll need a headset so you can talk into it and youll be able to phone people from your computer..so long as the person you call has the same programme as you eg you both use ? you can call that person for free!!! wow. a headset can be bought for just a few pounds or you can buy voip phones to plug into your computer ( voip is voice over internet protocol) ???? are the most popular choices you need to decide on though some other services exist. The most respected service is ? for free phone calls but i use ? free instant messenger for the instant messenging with friends.Instant messenging is typing your conversation to anther person which they can see instantly and reply to, its slower than using a phone to tell people things but it can be more intimate and revealing you type information you may not always be comfortable talking about! again see my next article for details on how to get this software for free and install it.

8. eEcards why waste money on paper birthday cards and christmas cards when you can send an animated moving ecard for free instead? ? is one example of a website offering free ecards many have moving characters like in a cartoon and some have sounds too, if you take your time to choose a good one the reciever will love it, you can get ecards for all occasions like valentines/birthdays/christmas/apploogies etc also some tell you when the recipient has opened the card so youll know when the person you sent a card has seen it

9. Price comparison sites compliment online shopping by allowing you to type in the name of a product your intending to buy and then listing many different stores prices for this product so saving you time and effort looking at dozens of different websites to see their price for the product your after.I have saved a small fortune using these serices even an item like a single dvd film differs in price significantly in different shops eg a dvd you can find for £9.99 including postage costs can cost double that.. £19.99 in other shops so just by using a price comparison site you can save many pounds quickly and easily.Heres a list of serices to use..???? often finds the best prices but doesnt always include the postage charges so if you use this remember to check what postage charges there will be..this is stated clearly near the product usually, and pricegrabber.co.uk are the main services to try, start using one such as pricerunner.com and youll see you can search for music,books,software and many electronic products too..believe me you can save a fortune if you shop online reguarly and you use a price comparison serice.

Options for your free time (article 55)

2005-12-12T16:06:00.000Z

The following article im writing so that whenever you have some free time outside of work youll be able to come to this article to find ideas for how to spend your leisure time, i hope you find this useful to help you use your free time better.

Airshows eg duxford in cambridgeshire to see hundreds of differneny old and new aircraft flying past pulling off stunts and manouvers..very impressive displays make a nice day out.

Auctions.. buy or sell things either online or at say government auctions.

Art.. why not draw or paint something get creative.

Astronomy.. when was the last time you bothered to gaze at a clear night sky to see thee moon or planets or constelations of stars? well then go for it its amazing what joy youll get from this.

Audiobooks.. listen to someone reading a good book instead of wearing your eyes out reading a book.

Air racing.. go see a plane race!

Archeology..find out if there are any archeology digs near you then go have a look at whats being uncovered.

Blackberry pick.. these lovely fruits are ripe in late september and make for a great blackberry and apple pie.

Badminton.. if you fancy whacking a really light shuttlecock across a net this can be fun.

Blog..write an online journal of your thoughts or diary or turn it into a proper website like ive done.

Baseball.. american game nice to watch live or go to a park and play it yourselves.

Birdwatching.. go to the countryside with a pair of binoculars and try and find different birds.

Bike rides.. get on your cycle for fitness, fresh air and to explore your local area.

Boxing..use a punch bag to release your stress or for fitness

Butterfly catch or observe, in the summer go outdoors to see these beautiful creatures or go to a specialist butterfly farm where hundreds of differnet kinds are kept indoors in greenhouses.

Bowling..lawn bowls if your old of ten pin bowling indoors..bores me after a few goes but you might like it.

Beach..got to the beach! everyone loves beaches when the weathers good go get a suntan, pick up some pebbles for your garden, find shells, paddle in rockpools or the sea go for a walk..lots of things you can do.

Bonfires.. raditionally something we brits do on november the 5th to celebrate guy fawks night

Boating..great fun hire a boat and slowly explore waterways at a leisurly pace, sunbath as you go along.cook onboard, see wildlife and get away from it all.

Barbeque..cook outdoors, try not to burn it though!

Cycling..same as biking

Cook.. when was the last time you bothered to go buy ingredients for a proper recipe and then spend the time and effort cooking a lovely meal? we should all cook more often this is a vital skill being lost as we all eat out or buy supermarket ready meals that are usually unhealthy and no where near as nice as a home cooked meal.

Carboot sales.. go bargain hunting on sunday mornings usually, go hunt through dozens of peoples unwanted goods, you will find some great bargains and its actually fun hunting for stuff at car boot sales.

Competitions.. try entering some competitions most emails you sign up to from companies occasioally have competitions on them to win cars, holidays, computers etc to be honest ive found youll win one thing for roughly every 1-2 thousand competitions you enter! but if the prize is something you want enter the competition..who doesnt want £10,000 for 1or2 minutes work?

Campaign..if theres an issue your passionate about such as stopping a war, green issues like global warming etc start a campaign organise a meeting or protest..things will only chnage if you make an effort.

Camping.. go sleep in a tent in the countryside of in a caravan..get back to basics living with just a few items.. not fun if its cold or wet!

Cinema.. everyone loves a good film, unfortunatly hollywood seems to have run out of good new ideas at the moment but every now and then theres a film worth seeing.

Chess.. the boardgame for patient intellectuals! can be ok every now and then.

Computer games.. play games on your pc or use equipment like a playstation or xbox or nintendo gamecube.. im rubbish at gaming and many games are violent stupid rubbish but there are a few games worth playing..pacman still rules!

Card games.. play poker or any other card game..get a few friends together and have an evening of poker.

Climbing.. go to an indoor sorts hallt o learn rock climbing..dont try and learn up a cliff face!

Comedy.. watch a comedy video or dvd or go see a live show we all love to laugh or play a practical joke on someone.

Charity.. do something for a charity you support..give your time to helping them help promote them.

Concert.. go to a gig to hear live music check your local clubs for event details.

Circus.. go see a circus they can be entertaining.

Diy.. do it yourself..building shelves, painting the house etc.cheaper and more dangerous than hiring someone else to do it usually!

Drive.. well our planets in deep trouble so only go for a drive occasionaly to explore areas youve not seen before.

Draughts.. the board game quite popular for children but why grow up have a game whatever age you are.

Date.. go on a romantic date with a love one or someone your trying to get to know, typical things to do on a date.. go to a restaurant, the cinema, a gig , a walk, etc

Exercise.. that thing so many of us now dread..learn to enjoy it begin slowly cycle,jog,run,play tennis, use an exercise bike, go to a gym and lift weights..there are so many things you can do that count as exercise.. your body needs it just as you need food and water exercise is vital..make it more enjoyable by doing it with somene else.

Eat out..if you trust someone else to cook your food visit a restaurant i think its better to cook food yourself.

Fossil hunt..find out if theres anywhere near you where you could find fossils...if you find dinosaur bones youll be famous, or start small and look in chalk cliffs for old sea life etc.

firework displays.. always nice but stay safe, better to see a professionally organised event.

fencing.. out of reach(excuse the pun) of most people so use carboard tubes instaed to whack each other!

Fishing..if you like life at a very slow pace go fishing..i understand fishing if your going to eat what you catch but i dont see the point of spending all day catching fish and then throwing them back into the river!

Football or soccer to americans..great game instead of watching it on tv try and get a few mates to got to a park and play a game its great fun and exercise.

Film fetivals..most big cities hold a festival once a year showing more obscure films usually but sometimes a film worth seeing will be on. Cannes is the worlds biggest film festival and the sundance film festival is also well known.

Gym..see exercise

Gig..go to a live music concert loud music, crazy lighting, people dancing having fun and drinking!

Geneology.. investigate your family tree to find people your related to, the internet has many sites devoted to this hobby.

Golf.. the sport where you walk miles hitting a little white ball around, not my cup of tea but a little outdoor exercise cant be all bad.

Gardening.. if you have a garden go sort it out, plant flowers and fruit and vegetables make the best use of your land..great place to relax in when the gardenings been done.

Horse racing.. again not something im too keen on, but if you like horses go watch a race live.

Hack.. learn to hack into computers if you have an organisation you hate..there are plenty of nasty websites that hackers should destroy..but be warned this is illegal.##

Instant messenge..use something like yahoos free instant messenger to chat in real time to friends.

Jacuzzi.. if you dont have one lots of gyms do now..but be warned their a breeding ground for germs so make sure theyre really well cleaned reguarly.

Karting.. go karts.. little cars always fun whether indoors of outside, get your adrenaline pumping and your competitiveness great for men and women.

Lotto play some lotterys, theres plenty of free lotterys you can do see my article number 42, devise a way to pick your numbers such as marking numbers on pingpong balls or golfballs so you can do your own random picks out of a box, uk national lotto costs £1 a ticket and the odds of winning are 14 million to 1, most free lottos cost nothing to play and have higher odds of winning roughly 80million to one so theyre harder to win but its not imposible.

Museums..many available full of wonders use my google search bar to find local museums.

Metal detect.. another obscure hobby you could maybe try one day, cheap new metal detectors can be bought for around £25 upwards you never know you could find a £250k gold torque in a field.

Mountaineer.. go climb a mountain! best to go with someone experienced as its dangerous so prepare well and be prepared to get knackered.

Magic..go see a magic show or try learning a trick yourself to impress your friends.

Massage.. we all love a proper massage to help us unwind and relieve aches and pains so offer your partner a massage, there are plenty of books available on how to do this properly so theres no excuse for not trying.

Nightclubs.. mostly young people like these for the chance to meet people, get drunk and dance, keep an eye on your drinks though as dodgy people will try and take advantage of somepeople.

Nature hunt or walk.. go outdoors and look for wildlife to photograph or just see, the worlds full of amazing things from insects to birds to animals stop only following human activities on tv stop watching so much rubbish about celebrities and learn from nature instead.

Politics. debate something with friends or online in a chatroom , get involved dont leave politics to politicians..you see the mess theyve made of everything they touch! you must have some issues your passionate about..global warming, nuclear weapons etc so do something about it.

Party..we all like a party good music flirting with people, drink food if your lucky these days! but expect things to get broken or stolen if too many strangers turn up.

Pool..the table game like snooker, mainly men like this but theres no reason why women cant be good or enjoy it too.

Philosophy.. bet you cant even explain what that is easily! so go look up what it is and learn some, everyone should learn some philosophy.

Poker.. now becoming very popular online as its illegal to gamble in so many countrys its emerged online now making billions of dollars for the companys running these sites..gambling is a good way to loose money so play offline with friends for fun.

Photography..go find things to capture on film or digitally, everyone enjoys being shown photos.

Planespot.. go near an airport and watch aircraft takeoff or land ..hopefully not crashing!, ill bet next time you get on a plane you dont even know how or why a plane can fly! so go find out.

Pacman the brilliant computer game..namco 3in1 toy that requires aa batterys and you plug into a tv is great fun but you can also play online for free but its better using a joystick.

Pubs..alcoholics rejoice in december 2005 uk pubs can no stay open longer than until 11pm! its an unhealthy way to spend your free time, so be sensible and never drink and drive..not even 1 drink is ok if your going to drive.

Picnic..on a nice day take a blanket and cutlery, some home made food and drink and go find a nice place in the countryside, a lovely relaxing thing to do especially with your partner.

Punting..its a cambridge and oxford thing..long thin boats you stand on and push a long pole into thre river bed to push yourself along the river..its about £8 an hour plus a £50 deposit roughly can be fun on a hot day taking your time going out into the countryside slowly.

Paintball..shoot your friends with small rubber balls filled with paint!..itll bruise you so its not one for the ladies more a macho thing running around in woods trying to shoot people.

Read.. theres more books available than ever before.. a few of which are good! choose things thatll help you in life like self help books or philosphy or a autobiography or the joy of sex! " thats not a beard".

Radio.. thanks to the internet you now have acess to millions of radio stations around the world broadcast online 24 hours a day, you can find stations dedicated to whatever music you like and other topics like news or current events.windows media player or realplayer play most of these stations and if you want to record internet radio now you can.look on download.com for the software youll neeed to do this. i recomend bbc.co.uk/ radio1 at 1-3am sunday mornings or listen again anytime in the next week after this show called the essential mix is first broadcast..each week radio1 has one of the worlds best djs play a set for 2 hours..the type of music played is mostly house/trance/dance/techno id say 70% of these shows are really good.

Rounders.. just like baseball get a small bat and any ball and go to a park and play this.

Restaurants.. get someone else to cook for you and do the washing up..but at a price, lots of choice wherever you are these days, nice to go once in a while.. i think they should all have open kitchens so you can see your food being prepared as ive heard horror stories about the hygene levels in most restaurants.

Run.. for exercise.go for soft ground as constant pavement punding will damage your knees, run for charity in a marathon if your fit enough.

Shop..again thanks to the internet (net) you can shop 24hours aday 365 days ayear globally! before you buy anything online you must read my advice in articles 9 10 and 12, there are many things that can go wrong when shopping online so take the time to read my advice, if you need help with anything leave me a comment at the bottom of the article please.

Study..if you can afford it why not take evening classes to learn something useful, good way to meet a new bunch of people also.

Skip.. get a rope and jump! boxers do it for fitness so its not totally girlie to do this.

Swim.. whether at an indoor pool full of chlorine or in a river or the sea, not my cup of tea but its exellent exercise.

Seaside..see beach

Subath..nice and relaxing but be sure to use suntan lotion as youll get skin cancer if you dont apply this, listen to a radio outside be careful not to fall asleep or you may wake up as red as a cooked lobster!

Self help..spend some free time reading about any way to help any medical condition or phobia you may have or how to be more positive and get what you want from life, their are plenty of self help audio books available too.. american anthony robbins is popular.

Soapbox challenge.

Stocktrade.. try and invest spare money to make more..take your time to learn how it all works its complex and your liable to loose money but once you understand how it works you can make loads of money. For example if you had bought google shares when they first started being traded at $85 a share just 1 year later your investment would have quadroupled in value!

Sauna..thank the swedes for this, go sit in awooden hut sweat it out and then go jump in a cold lake! crazy if you ask me but some peope enjoy this.

Stargaze.. go look at the stars at night, gods putting on a display for you.

Sex.. the best thing to do in your free time!, experiment with new positions, in different rooms in differnet clothing explore your sexuality..ill soon be writing a new article on all the things you can try doing with your partner.

Tennis.. a great game, good exercise and fun to play with someone else all you need are raquets and a few tennis balls and somewhere to play, drink water and rest if you feel tired.

Travel..either locally to find new villages or further afield to other cities or towns or even abroad.

Treasure hunt..some local papers organise these sorts of things, irecall a company in engkand a few years ago buried about 10 new cars around the uk and gave out clues for you to find them!

Theatre..plenty of plays to go see, i dont like this form of entertainment but maybe you will.

Twister..those cloured circles you put your hands and feet on fine if your a kid more fun when youve grown up and your playing with your partner!

Television..its don here near the end of my list but its what the vast majority of people now devote their leisure time to..sitting on our arses barely moving for hours on end watching other people do all the things we should be doing instead of watching others do them! an organisation called whitedot wonderfully explains why we should stop watching tv find its adress in my article number 42 which lists the worlds best websites.

Video games..playstations or nintendo or xbox games are hugelly popular now idont see the attraction of pressing buttons endlessly to make graphics on a monitor move..too many are extremely bad for kids and adults, teaching people to fight and joyride is dangerous and irisposible.

Woodland..when was the last time you went into a wood? theyre full of wildlife, trees! and are what this palnet should be covered in, unfortunatly our woods are dissapearing fast so go check them out while there are still some left.

Wildlife hunt..see nature hunt

walk.. its what our legs are for but in modern society its amazind how little we now walk..get out of your car you lazy fool and exercise by walking to places.

Wild food hunt..research online where to go and what to find locally such as wild mushrooms or herbs and berrys then go get some..be careful some mushrooms are deadly!

Yoga.. more a thing women enjoy..lazy exercise but i guess its relaxing.

Zoo go visit a zoo most people love animals and it makes a nice day trip.

well i hope ive given you loads of options on what to do when your not working..stop just watching tv, before you know it youll be old and youll have done very little but sit on your arse staring at a small coloured screen..try something new each week..varity is the spice of life.
