Alternative PDF Reader

Now at one time adobe dominated all thing PDF, But no more now you can make your own PDF’s and you don’t even need adobe reader. You can find a few really nice readers now like Foxit. But if you are looking for a light and fast reader get Sumatra. It is fast , uses very little resources and I think it makes PDF’s look better then other readers. You can also put it on removable storage  drive by downloading the zip file and unzipping it in the drive. You can get it at blog.kowalczyk.info/software/sumatrapdf/index.html. If you now of other readers leave a comment.

Virtual LAN With Hamachi

This is a really cool program it lets you access your network over the Internet with file and printer sharing. You can disable the sharing in the setup. The computers on both sides have to have Hamachi software running on them. It is great if lets say you have family across the country but want to share your many gigs of pictures, home videos, or even the PDF files you’ve made. They can get to them as if they are on your home network. Another example it your at a wifi hotspot with your notebook and want to print something you can just connect to your network and use the shared printer. Gamers are now using it to play  multiplayer games as if they are on the same LAN because it is faster and more secure then normal online play. Those are just a few of the possibilities. If it sounds cool you can get it at  https://secure.logmein.com/products/hamachi/vpn.asp . If you have other ways of using Hamachi post a comment .
