If you have the same anchor text in your footer links on all the websites that you create this can now hurt your website SEO. This happened to edublogs, they had to remove more than 10,000 footer links.

Another way to avoid the Penguin update penalty is by making your anchor text footer links nofollow.

New tab in Firefox don’t show previously visited websites in thumbnails

Categories: Windows Tips.

How To Change The New Tab Behavior In Firefox

1.  Hide the thumbnails

  • Click on the square icon to the upper right of that New Tab page – this hides the thumbnail pictures and your choice is supposed to be remembered even after you restart Firefox.
  • Note that the square icon remains displayed – if you click it again the thumbnail pictures will reappear on New Tab pages.

2.  How to make a blank page on New Tab

You can do this by setting the New Tab page to just open a blank page instead:

  • Open Firefox, in the address bar (URL) type about:config, press Enter.
  • Click the “I’ll be careful I Promise” warning button (if it appears) – a long list of preferences used in Firefox is displayed.
  • type newtab to narrow down the list to only display preferences containing that text.
  • Double click the browser.newtab.url entry and change the String Value text to about:blank (default is about:newtab).
  • Close Firefox and reopen it – now, whenever you open a new tab it should just display a blank page.

3.  Change New Tab to open your favorite website

  • Open Firefox and type about:config in the address bar (URL), press Enter.
  • Click the “I’ll be careful I Promise” warning button (if it appears) – a long list of preferences used in Firefox is displayed.
  • Type newtab to narrow down the list to only display preferences containing that text.
  • Double click the browser.newtab.url entry and change the String Value text to your chosen website address (URL) e.g. www.google.com (the default is about:newtab).
  • Now, whenever you open a New Tab it will open your chosen website.

Don’t let your laptop overheat in your backpack!

Categories: Windows Tips.

If your laptop wakes from standby inside your bag or backpack, it will likely overheat and possibly self destruct. Even if it survives, this takes life away from your hard drive and motherboard by getting so hot!

It cannot ventilate when running inside a laptop carrying case.

Laptop overheating causes:

Cause: USB mouse with nano receiver plugged in, when you get anywhere near the laptop, like putting it in your pack and lifting it from your desk to go out, it already is coming out of standby if your mouse isn’t completely disabled.

There’s a bug in windows settings that still allows the mouse to wake up the computer out of standby even if you have it set to not turn off.

Read this to make fix the USB mouse still bringing the laptop out of standby.

Cause: Plugged intake vent on the bottom, if you lay your laptop on a blanket or on your lap, make sure you know where your intake vent is and be mindful to keep it open to breathe air. Usually the exhaust is on the side or the back and is harder to block, plus you’ll feel a hot spot if you do plug it.

Nikola Tesla museum is a go!

Posted on August 23, 2012 by admin.

For a man who had many more inventions than patents, over 276 documented patents are in his name!

Tesla invented the AC motor and had something more than 10 variations patented within the first couple years. They are still in use today as many of our most efficient motors, like the shaded pole induction motor.

Nikola Tesla’s name is on 13 of the 19 patents on the generators which first harnessed hydroelectric power at Niagra Falls, which he saw a postcard of when he was a kid in what’s now Croatia.

The power grid in the US is just as he invented it over 100 years ago, 60 Hz AC transformer boosted. He also suggested 50 Hz in Europe because of less transmission line distance, which is what it is to this day.

He outdid all of that with the pinnacle of technology at his super lab in Long Island New York called Wardenclyff. The wireless transmission tower reached 185 feet in the air and the facility below the laboratory had super duper grounding for that tower, which still reaches 120 feet into the ground.

That facility was shut down, then the tower was dynamited during the war, but the lab and the incredible below foundation connections are still there! This is finally coming back into the fold thanks to  Tesla lovers and disciples from all over the world.

We have matched and exceeded our contribution to buy the facility back and are now working on restoration money. You too can donate and become part of this historic turnaround to the positive direction!
