Beware of the forums.

It happened again. I was given another warning by a moderator.Telling me I would be banned from Linux Mint forums. For doing nothing. Here is my video about it.

The problems with a forum.

Last week I told readers how I was given a warning by Linux Mint forums telling me that I will be banned from their forum.If I continue,what they call hijacking topics on their threads. Which I did not do.

Well it happened again,on Saturday,I got another warning, my second one, from a moderator of Linux Mint forums.The offense-I just posted in a thread about Thunderbird on Linux Mint. And I answered another post about anti-virus software on Linux. That's all.

Free webcam software.

Most laptops have a built in webcam,although a lot of full sized computers don't. But you can use an external webcam that you can plug into the USB plug socket. But the problem is, that they don't come with desktop software to record videos or take photos with. If you want to record your own webcam videos to post on video sites, like You Tube or My Space. You can do this by going directly onto the site, and record from there.

But it is much better to be able to take webcam photos and videos from your computer desktop. And then you can edit them and save them in a file on your computer,and upload them to video sites, or your blog or website.

The email that nobody can use.

Here is a video in which I have an open chat with my friend about email clients,such as Outlook Express,Thunderbird and others. They are impossible to use for most computer users.

Should you post on a forum?-video.

Here is a video in which I talk about the problems of using computer software forums. And I talk about how Linux Mint forums threatened to ban me. Because they did not like my ideas about computing.

Pale Moon 4 is here.

Firefox 3 has now been discontinued a few days ago and has been replaced with Firefox 4. And now Pale Moon have released their version-Pale Moon 4,which is available for download.

I tried Firefox 4 and I was not very impressed with it or it's rather bland appearance.But Pale Moon is different. Pale Moon is an open source version of Firefox that is made only for Windows. But it is much faster than Firefox and I have been using Pale Moon 3 for quite some time now.

Should you post on a forum?











I got my own laptop last year,which is my first computer,a Netbook. And since that time I now have three Netbooks,all Windows 7. And so I have started to take an interest in computer software. And I tried Linux Mint 9 for a short time but it did not work out for me. So I uninstalled it, and I now have just got Windows 7 only, on my computer.Which I am very happy with.

But it was my interest in software that led me to join a computer software forum. The most well known computer software forums are Windows 7 forums and Linux Mint forums as well as many others. And I have joined several of these forums, but now I am sorry that I did, and I now wished that I had not bothered to.

I have been writing several post on Windows 7 forums and Linux Mint forums and some others. And the Linux Mint forums has threatened to ban me from the forum because it does not like my posts.
