The Internet has gained prominence in every computer user’s life. Its applications are found in nearly every field, ranging from communication, information, entertainment, education to e-commerce. Easy and fast Internet access is the most important part of the Internet. Broadband Internet access or simply broadband, is the technology that makes faster Internet access possible. Dial-up Internet is the traditionally used Internet connectivity via telephone lines. Broadband Internet is preferable to the dial-up in many ways. Let us look at the advantages of broadband in contrast with the traditional dial-up.

Advantages of Broadband Internet Access

1. The speed is the highlighting factor of broadband Internet. It has a higher speed of data transmission. The data transmission speed of broadband is more than 200 Kbps (200,000 bps) while that of dial-up is 56 Kbps.
2. High quality Internet services require huge amount of data transmission. For eg, VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol), streaming or Internet games, etc. As the speed of broadband is higher, data can be transmitted much faster. This is not possible with a dial-up service. One of the broadband advantages is that because the speed is higher, you do not have to wait for connectivity or downloading.
3. As speed is the prominent feature of broadband, there is quicker loading of pages and also easier downloading of music and movies and other files. Chatting through web-cam or video conferencing in real time mode is possible due to the high speed broadband Internet access. There are no barriers if you wish to download e-mail attachments.
4. Another significant feature is that broadband does not make use of telephone lines like the dial-up access. Therefore, there is no blocking of the telephone lines and you can use the Internet and telephone simultaneously. This is not possible with the dial-up as it connects to the Internet via the telephone line.
5. Broadband is always ‘on’, therefore, you remain connected for 24/7. It means you can communicate and surf as soon as you switch on your computer. Also, there is no need to reconnect after logging off.
6. As the broadband has wired as well as wireless technology, it is useful for every user. The wireless technology is a boon to travelers as well as to laptop, palmtop and cellphone users.
7. Broadband service is billed according to its usage or plan, and not the time factor. The payment is also mostly on per a monthly basis, and according to schemes offered by various service providers. Hence, you do not have to keep a check on the usage time to prevent huge bills, as is the case while using a dial-up service.

The high speed transmission technologies of broadband internet include:

ADSL
SDSL
Wireless Broadband Internet Connection
Satellite Broadband Internet Connection
Cable Broadband Internet Connection
Fiber Optic Broadband Internet Connection

Broadband Internet access is used by all business organizations. It is also useful for homes with several computers. It is even helpful for those who work from home or freelance. Broadband makes it possible for various people to access the Internet using the same connection. Those who have used dial-up previously will immediately feel the difference between the two. Watching television, playing games, downloading and uploading information has become easier and also very feasible. Besides, communication has also become faster and more comfortable, thanks to broadband Internet access.

Due to its greater advantages, broadband is already the most used service. It is also the future of telecommunication. It will keep on advancing according to the growing demands and needs of the users. It can be rightly said that broadband Internet access is a boon to the world of computers and Internet.

Hard disk drives are different from almost every other part of your computer system in one very vital respect: if you lose your hard drive, you lose something more than a hardware- you lose your data as well as software. You can replace the hard drive, but data and information on the drive generally can not be replaced. Certainly the data is not covered by any warranty. In such cases, backup proves as a great help. However, if you do not have an updated or complete backup, data recovery solutions are required to extract your lost data.

Recovery is possible in most of the hard drive failure situations. When a file is deleted or lost due to any reason, it still remains physically intact on the drive. Lost files become inaccessible as deletion of files remove file system table entries and thus operating system can not locate the files on drive. Thus it seems the files are lost forever, but recovery solutions are there for your rescue to retrieve them.

• Use of RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) reduces the likelihood of data loss. However, it can complicate the situations if for any reason data loss occurs. Recovery from a failed RAID array is far complex than an individual drive.

• There are recovery services, which specialize in retrieving lost data from the hard drives that are failed or corrupted due to hardware problems. Such problems include read/write head crash, spindle motor damage, actuator arm damage, natural disasters, and power outages. The data recovery services expert use specialized tools and equipments for absolute recovery. They have Clean Rooms to open the hard drive and directly access the platters for actual recovery.

• Even though the hard drives have stickers and labels saying that when you open the drive, the warranty is voided. But, it does not implement on data recovery experts. The drive manufacturers allow them for working on drives without impacting warranty status.

If data loss is caused by logical failure, such as file system corruption, virus infection, operating system malfunction, and hard drive formatting, recovery is possible in pretty easy way. You can retrieve lost data on your own, using data recovery software. The applications are particularly designed to perform in-depth scan of the damaged drive and extract all lost, missing, deleted, and inaccessible data from it.

Stellar Information Systems Limited is the foremost provider of superior recovery solutions. The software are provided for Windows, Mac OS X, UNIX, Linux, and Novell operating systems. Recovery service is delivered through Class 100 Clean Rooms for IDE, SCSI, SATA, and EIDE hard drives.

RADIO ADVERTISING STRATEGY: Educating The Customer A radio station sales manager asked if I had any ideas for a relatively new client: a small, independently owned hardware store. Just one location, in the center of a small town. The store didn’t seem to have any obvious Unique Selling Propositions (lowest prices, free delivery, etc.). So I thought about my own rare ventures into hardware stores and quickly realized a key emotion that I suspect is felt by many customers: Fear. Not heart palpitating, sweat producing, shortness of breath inducing fear. More like uneasiness, a pronounced uncomfortableness. Will I be able to find the tool or accessory I need? How will I know which item to buy? How will I know how many or what size I’ll need?

If I can’t find what I need, will a store employee be able to help me? Will they laugh at my ignorance? This immediately led me to suggest a very powerful strategy utilized by too few advertisers: Education. I suggested a series of commercials in which the store owner answers the most common questions posed by do-it-yourselfers in a relaxed, conversational, non-threatening manner: ——– Hi, I’m Ed Proprietor of Ed’s Hardware Store. A wrench is a pretty simple tool. But if you ask someone to hand you a wrench, they might say, “Which wrench do you want? Pipe wrench? Monkey wrench? Crescent? Open-ended? Box wrench?” Here’s a quick & easy explanation of the differences. (EXPLANATION GOES HERE.) The reason we carry so many different kinds of wrenches … and hammers, and saws, and screws & nails all kinds of thingamajigs and whatchamacallems … is because we want to make sure we have exactly what you need. Having helped thousands of (LOCAL) handymen & women, carpenters, electricians, and part-time fixer-uppers over the past 15 years, you can pretty much count on our having what you’re looking for. And if you’re not sure what it’s called, don’t worry; we’ll know. I’m Ed Proprietor of Ed’s Hardware Store in Smalltown, on Main Street, right across from the Post Office. Stop by today; we’re here to help. ——– Where would YOU rather shop: At a hardware store where the clerks don’t know and don’t care? Or at a hardware store where the clerks are eager to answer your questions without making your feel stupid?

Making software training videos is quite popular in software industry. The software developers find it simple and impressive to introduce their software to the customers entirely, telling people how to use it from basic points to intensive features. In another hand, software training videos are also another way of promoting software for the business of software vendors. You can upload it to online video sites like YouTube or submit them to software review sites in order to get more potential users.

For people who want to find some programs which can help them solve certain problems, they can find a step-by-step tutorial videos to learn how to master them. It’s much easier and clearer to understand and follow than to read help document in text. Software training videos provide a very helpful opportunity to link up software end users and developers. It’s a win-win solution to both sides.

However, don’t consider that building software training video is just a simple presentation recording process. There’re many things in detail you have to pay attention to. In this article, we note down some of the most important items for you to make better training videos, no matter software providers or end users you are.

What you need

• Experience of using software
• Screen recorder and webcam (the latter is optional)
• Microphone
• Outline of training video

The four steps of building software training video

Step 1 Check all things in order

Once you decide to record presentation for software, write down all points you want to show to your audience in your training video on paper in advance. Then choose one screen recording software which allows you to record what you can see on your computer screen and save it as a video file. Here are many choices depending on what kind of software you introduce and what kind of training video you want make.

• Camstudio: an open source freeware.
• DemoCreator: simple and easy app with video editing features, shareware $99.
• Camtasia: well-known for its professional and stunning visual video features, shareware $299.

Microphone is also essential since majority of screen recorders allow you to record narration during the video recording, indicating more information can be shared in video, so prepare a good microphone at $15 is really worthy.

Step 2 Start software presentations

In this part the major thing is to demonstrate to your audience your software and how to use it, simply regarding it as a process of presentation and explanation. You can quickly go through it once you are well-prepared on your outline, but there are still something you should pay attention to.

• Describe in order: arrange your presentation in order if the software is moderate enough to tell everything one by one. Another way is to make a series of training videos which aim at one specific feature in each video.
• Emphasize the keypoint: don’t attempt to put all things in your training video, that can only make your audience confused since they don’t know what’s the key feature you want to show to them. Take advantages of some video recording effect like zoom-n-pan, highlight and narration to remind people which part should be given specific focus to.
• Keep your mouse calm: beware of moving your mouse on and on while giving presentation. That’s a bad habit most video authors pay little attention to. If you are not doing any click actions, leave your hands off your mouse and remove all unnecessary movements.
• Control the length of video: the concentrated duration of your audience is limited so you should handle your video time. Generally speaking, 5 minutes or less is properly accepted by most of video watchers.

Step 3 Enhance the video in post production

You can ignore this part if you’re a user of Camstudio since most of freeware don’t offer video editing features like adding callout, zoom-n-pan, highlight, animation and so on. Your video can be more impressive and interactive by inserting these special effects.

• Callout: a dialog box which allows you to write text in it. It’s mainly used for making title or giving tips to certain operation and can be placed anytime and anywhere in your video.
• Zoom-n-pan: it presents a magnifier effect what allows you to zoom and pan in a specific area showing only the relevant parts of your scene in specific details. And that’s one of the most frequently used features to focus your audience’s attention on important screen movements or actions.
• Highlight: emphasize a specific area of your screen by adding a frame or shade.
• Insert objects: with this feature you can insert picture, Flash movie, logo and other objects to decorate your training video and realize multiple ways of explanation.
• Audio editor: some screen recording software like DemoCreator offers a solo audio editor so you can edit or remake your narration for software training video. What’s more, inserting WAV or MP3 file as back ground music is also available.

Step 4 Publish your training video

The last step is to save your software presentation as video file. Screen recording software can generate video in different formats but the most common ones are AVI and WMV. Some programs have already supported up-to 7 popular video formats including FLV, MP4, MPEG, 3GP and some other documentation standards for education and learning.

Another thing is that you should choose the most suitable video codec for your video or the video quality can be terrible and the video file can be huge. Generally, many screen recording software set Microsoft video 1 as the default video codec, you can try different codec to find out the best video performance for your software presentation.

Summary

That’s the main process of making video presentation for software. It helps your audience to get familiar with your software and prepare to master it without reading boring book or attending expensive training courses. The training video is also easy to share online and digs out more users to popularize your program. Now get ready to building your software training video with screen recorders, it can be pleasant and fun.
