SECURE YOUR FACEBOOK ACCOUNT FROM HARMFUL LINKS

2011-11-22T17:42:00.001+06:00

Over the last year there have been many malware attacks on Facebook users. These suspicious links and apps will infect the user's timeline, messages, and even their friends' "walls." Norton offers a tool to help combat these threats, and it's very quick and easy to set up on your Facebook account. Here's how:

Step 1: Open Norton Safe Web for Facebook in your Web browser. If you're not already logged in to Facebook, you'll need to do that now.

Step 2: Authorize permission for the Norton app to scan your account.

Step 3: Further permissions may be necessary to authorize Norton; if so, click the link and then authorize in the pop-up window.

The results for all links in your timeline will be shown on the next page that loads. If you're lucky, none of the links will be malicious. If not, the suspicious links will be marked by an X or exclamation mark (!), and you will need to take action. Sometimes your friends get infected by malware and aren't aware that they are sharing malicious links to Facebook. In this case, you should always let them know what's going on, so they can remove the malware and associated posts on their walls and the walls of others.

(Optional) Step 4: You can enable Norton Websafe's auto-scan if you want all new links on your wall to be checked for suspicious activity--just click the Enable Auto-scan button and Allow the app permission, if necessary.

This is a great tool to recommend to friends and family since spammers have slipped a few malicious links past some of the most Internet-savvy users. Best of all, this service is free, so why not try it out?

Google Music is open for all !

2011-11-17T10:48:00.001+06:00

Last May at Google I/O, we launched Music Beta by Google with a clear ambition: to help people access their music collections easily from any device. Music Beta enabled you to upload your personal music collection (up to 20,000 songs) for free to the cloud so you could stream it anywhere, any time. Today, the beta service evolves into a broader platform: Google Music. Google Music is about discovering, purchasing, sharing and enjoying digital music in new, innovative and personalized ways. Google Music helps you spend more time listening to your collection and less time managing it. We automatically sync your entire music library—both purchases and uploads—across all your devices so you don't have to worry about cables, file transfers or running out of storage space. We’ll keep your playlists in tact, too, so your “Chill” playlist is always your “Chill” playlist, whether you’re on your laptop, tablet or phone. You can even select the specific artists, albums and playlists you want to listen to when you're offline. Purchase and share We also want to make it easy and seamless for you to grow your music collection. Today, we added a new music store in Android Market, fully integrated with Google Music. The store offers more than 13 million tracks from artists on Universal Music Group, Sony Music Entertainment, EMI, and the global independent rights agency Merlin as well as over 1,000 prominent independent labels including Merge Records, Warp Records, Matador Records, XL Recordings and Naxos. We’ve also partnered with the world's largest digital distributors of independent music including IODA, INgrooves, The Orchard and Believe Digital. You can purchase individual songs or entire albums right from your computer or your Android device and they’ll be added instantly to your Google Music library, and accessible anywhere. Good music makes you want to turn up the volume, but great music makes you want to roll down the windows and blast it for everyone. We captured this sentiment by giving you the ability to share a free full play of a purchased song with your friends on Google+. Exclusively on Google Music We’re celebrating our launch with a variety of music that you won’t find anywhere else, much of it free. There’s something for everyone, with a variety of free tracks to choose from: The Rolling Stones are offering an exclusive, never-before-released live concert album, Brussels Affair (Live, 1973), including a free single, “Dancing with Mr. D.” This is the first of six in an unreleased concert series that will be made available exclusively through Google Music over the coming months. Coldplay fans will find some original music that’s not available anywhere else: a free, live recording of “Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall”, a five-track live EP from their recent concert in Madrid and a remix of “Paradise” by Tiësto. Busta Rhymes’s first single from his upcoming album, Why Stop Now (feat. Chris Brown), is available for free. Shakira’s live EP from her recent concert in Paris and her new studio single, “Je L’Aime à Mourir” are both being offered up free. Pearl Jam are releasing a live album from their 9/11/11 concert in Toronto, free to Google Music users. Dave Matthews Band are offering up free albums from two live concerts, including new material from Live On Lakeside. Tiësto is offering up a new mix, “What Can We Do?” (feat. Anastacia), exclusively to Google Music users. Artist hub Whether you’re on a label or the do-it- yourself variety, artists are at the heart of Google Music. With the Google Music artist hub, any artist who has all the necessary rights can distribute his or her own music on our platform, and use the artist hub interface to build an artist page, upload original tracks, set prices and sell content directly to fans— essentially becoming the manager of their own far-reaching music store. This goes for new artists as well as established independent artists, like Tiesto, who debuts a new single on Google Music today. Starting today, Google Music is open in the U.S. at market.android.com, and over the next few days, we will roll out the music store to Android Market on devices running Android 2.2 and above. You can also pick up the new music app from Android Market and start listening to your music on your phone or tablet today. And don’t forget to turn your speakers up to eleven.

How to share quick videos on Facebook and Twitter

2011-11-06T12:15:00.000+06:00

Tout is an awesome 15-second video service that allows you to share moments, not movies.

By getting to the important part of your message (the 15 seconds), the video file is small enough to upload quickly to Tout's servers for sharing. The wide range of ways you can access its service makes it fun and easy to use, especially if you want a break from "wall" posts and 140-character tweets.This service can be used with: Webcams, file uploads, Android, and iOS. This How To will mainly focus on the mobile version of Tout.
