I am talking about Windows 7 Ultimate Build 7057 x86 DVD ISO which, thanks to some clues, makes us understand that it might be a Release Candidate (RC) version! Continue reading »

As a webmaster, one of the biggest worries of mine as far as my blog is concerned  is, without any doubt, its performance, namely the ability to be downloaded in any browser in almost no time (yes, I am a bit ambitious!). As a matter of fact, the more your website is accessible the more people will be able to see it, above all those ones who  have a slow Internet connection such as dial-up or ISDN connection (and believe me, there are a lot of them, more than you think!). There are a lot of techniques and open source, freeware software that can help you to achieve this result, just browse my Webmaster section to find out more. Anyway, what I didn’t know till yesterday, was that I could get amazing results just by using some nice piece of code to copy-and-paste directly in the .htaccess file located under the public_html folder.

By default, Windows Explorer opens the Libraries folder in Windows 7. Jut in case you don’t know what  this new feature is, a Library is a folder especially made to host  files like for example  MP3, documents, videos etc. If you are of the old school and you don’t use such Libraries, and at the same time you want Windows Explorer to open other, more classic folders such as My Documents, Documents, Computer etc. here is a nice hack which will set Windows Explorer to open whatever folder you want.

If you have been reading  Web Talk for some time, you should know how its blogger (me) is quite inattentive. In fact I tend to forget almost everything. Passwords, birthdays (even my own birthday!), events, holidays, celebrations, my wedding date, and in some cases the name of some of my best friends (no kidding).  Some friend of mine says that I am like this cause I am a mad genius.

Recently, I came across  an interesting website which can help me remember everything in a couple of steps. Useless to say, it was love at first sight! Continue reading »
