While Halloween will never surpass Christmas as a child’s favorite holiday, it does come in a very close second. What other holiday do you know of where the kids (and adults) can dress up as ghosts and monsters and spend the evening wandering the streets scaring people? And they give you free candy for doing it too!

Halloween’s popularity has guaranteed that there are certain images associated with this annual festival that have become permanently ingrained in our minds. Bats, black-cats, witches and ghosts, pumpkins and jack-o-lanterns, all of these images are so popular that they are instantly recognizable as belonging to Halloween.

And it is that popularity that has ensured a great supply of clip-art available on the internet for you to download and use on your own decorations. Knowing that great clip-art is out there and being able to find it when you need it is not always as easy as it might sound. While you could certainly go to your local computer store and buy a CD of clip-art, there are other options out there where you can find the same art for free, all it will cost is a little bit of your time.

So, with that in mind, we have assembled a list of a few sites and tips that will help you to quickly and efficiently track down just the right image that you need for that Halloween card or to decorate the side of a cauldron full of candy. (more…)

Are you a college student or do you plan on going to college soon? If so, then you have been thinking about many different things. You’ve been thinking about that new dorm, the classes you have picked, new clothes, and, of course, a laptop. If you do not already have a laptop, then you need to make sure you are choosing the best college laptop.

The laptop you choose must fit your needs. Some of you may only be doing school work on it, but for all of you gamers out there, you need to make sure you get one that is top of the line. When the weekend has finally arrived and you open up World of Warcraft or some other game, you do not want it to crash your computer.

What are some of the things you need to consider as you are searching for a college laptop? You need to think about the size and weight, memory and drive space, processor or CPU, graphics, operating system, USB ports, screen size, laptop role, aesthetics, CD/DVD drive and saving money. (more…)

In early June my Toshiba Satellite Laptop (A105-S2071) developed a severe case of the blues. I would be in the middle of something and windows would crash and I would be confronted with a blue screen of death. This screen contained a lot of text, most of it pretty much incomprehensible text unless you are a Microsoft engineer.

I was pretty sure that the problem was with the software and not hardware. Why? Because I could make the blue screen appear by just logging into my Amazon affiliate account. Odd or what? Of course, the BsoD also appeared when I didn’t expect it way too often.

I tried several things to fix my laptop:

• System Restore – didn’t work
• Norton Anti-Virus full system scan – half way though the blue screen appeared
• Searched the internet for help
• Sent a error report to Microsoft

One of my best websites fell off Google’s radar in early January. The site traffic dropped to single digits.

The site dated back to 2006 but most of the early posts were slightly rewritten private label rights articles (PLR). All the posts in the last year are pretty good new and original posts.

I did a couple things to win Google back. I changed the Wordpress theme and the permanent link structure (a really bad idea). I also removed Adsense from the site. I didn’t want Google to drop my other sites.

Finally I asked what to do on a couple guru blogs. Courtney Tuttle the best suggestions. Just dump the plr articles and begin an new Ezine Articles campaign. I did both. (more…)
