Do The Media Spread Computer Viruses? by sunil1477. Could the mass media hype about computer viruses actually make the problem worse?

If you believe what you hear in the media, there are an awful lot of viruses going around. No, I'm not talking about the make-you-sick kind of virus, though they get plenty of airtime, too. I'm talking about the kind of virus that enters via your internet connection rather than your nasal passages.

What the mainstream media often don't tell you--at least, in most radio and television newscasts and in the crucial headlines and opening paragraphs of newspaper articles-- is that many of these "viruses" are not viruses at all.

Tata Nano Car: Dream of People's Car Comes True by Ashish Phanse. If ever the history of cars be rewritten, then India’s leading auto maker and an industrial giant Tata’s Nano will be firmly etched in golden words as a car that became ‘a dreamer’s dream come true.’

There was a dream, and a dream team behind the most prestigious and challenging project ever undertaken by an Indian company. Nay, shall we say in all modesty, but for Tatas to launch a car price tagged at sub or near sub Rs 1,00,000 amount (webmaster note: about $2500 US).

The dream was conceived by its architect (even by educational qualification) - Ratan Tata, about four years back when he heard Maruti Suzuki honcho belching out the now famous challenge of building a car at that ‘price’ was next to impossible.

Web 2.0 – A Social Phenomenon by Jungle 8. To many, the phenomenon known as Web 2.0 is as abstract as a Miro painting. His paintings make perfect sense if you understand each of the elements, language, social implications and context. Surprisingly those exact elements identify the key to understanding how Web 2.0 and the nature of social causes have grown in unison.

The common goal behind all social causes is to raise awareness or consciousness surrounding a particular issue, motivating thought and taking action. In order to be effective, it requires committed people with incredible focus and an interested audience. In the past, these movements burned an incredible amount of time simply reaching out, trying to spark interest, educate and usually exhausting resources preventing asking for the support required to further the cause.

Hints On Hidden Cameras by Rosie. You want to protect your assets the best way you can in the most economical fashion. Today’s technological improvements on the home and business security front can allow you to do just that.

One of the best ways to capture an intrusion or theft in action is to install a spy cam. These cameras offer you the opportunity to safeguard your home or business with minimal effect on decor. These unobtrusive gadgets do the watching without anyone aware of their presence.

These hidden cameras are beneficial for homeowners who want an extra eye watching the exterior perimeter of their property. They’re great for protection against vehicle theft and property damage. If you own a business, a spy cam can help you cut down on inventory loss from employees and customers.

Discreetly placed over a checkout area in a store, these devices are an indispensable partner in a business’s security efforts. They can help a storeowner detect irregularities in cash handling procedures by clerks. When confronted with video evidence of wrongdoing many culprits admit their offense and make restitution. Very quickly, a digital video surveillance system can pay for itself. At the very least a spy cam will help a business root out a thief in their midst.

Consumers Have a Choice With Satellite Radio Satellite Sweeps by Groshan Fabiola. Making the switch from traditional radio to a satellite radio system requires more than just a few choices. The first and most important choice is which of the two satellite radio services to choose, and in the United States it’s between XM Radio and Sirius Satellite Radio. These two services have plans to merge by early next year, but for the meantime consumers must choose only one. The satellite radio system, accessories and subscription will all need to be from the same satellite radio provider.

When it comes down to it, the biggest difference between XM and Sirius is the programming choices. Both satellite radio services offer lots of channels, but there are a few different on-air personalities and sports programs that are exclusive to one of the providers. Consumers can easily go online to check the programming on either of the services’ Web sites. There are also great opportunities to win free XM or free Sirius on the Internet, which may obviously sway people’s preferences in one direction.
