Here's a number worth putting in your cell phone, or your home phone speed dial: 1-800-goog411 or 1-800-466-4411.
This is a great service from Google, and it's free -- great when you are on the road. Don't waste your money on information calls and don't waste your time manually dialing the number.
I am driving along in my car and I need to call the computer store and I don't know the number. I hit the speed dial for information that I have programmed (1-800-466-4411). The voice at the other end says, "Say the name of the business and the City & State." I say, "Tri State Computer, Matamoras PA”. He says, "Connecting" and Tri State Computer answers the phone.
How great is that? This is nationwide, US & Canada, and it is absolutely free! Works on cell and landline phones, all you have to remember is 1-800-466-4411. Give it a try.
Click on the link below and watch the short clip for a quick demonstration.

PS; I will also be giving some other features of this in the next print issue's Gadget Corner... |

REGENSBURG – The German registrar InterNetX has widened its extensive domain repertoire to include another TLD from southern Africa. InterNetX now delivers global access to Lesotho’s online space with the subTLDs .CO.LS and .ORG.LS.
The parliamentary monarchy, landlocked into South Africa, is often called “The Kingdom in the Sky” on account of its high altitude and is famous for its unique indigenous culture and rich diamond deposits. The Internet business is picking up speed too, with an increase in websites and rising interest in the country’s TLD. It’s the perfect time to secure a piece of Lesotho’s online market and register .CO.LS and .ORG.LS domains – especially since there are no restrictions on the registration of these subTLDs from Lesotho.
As one of the leading international registrars – with more than 300 ccTLDs and gTLDs in supply – InterNetX can offer numerous exotic TLDs alongside conventional domain products. Experts in the branch value the diverse range at InterNetX and use the opportunity to also register domain names with unusual TLDs like .CO.LS and .ORG.LS in the domain management software AutoDNS 3.0.
You can get more information about ccTLDs and gTLDs as well as registration requirements at: www.internetx.com |

REGENSBURG – Typosquatting can lead to substantial losses for businesses. One study claims that companies with highly frequented websites can lose as much as 300 million USD annually to typosquatting. Although there is some disagreement about the accuracy of this figure, it is an indication of the financial losses associated with typosquatting. The German company InterNetX, offers sound advice and practical features for companies not only to regain, but also to win web traffic and drastically lower their typosquatting losses.
Also known as URL hijacking, typosquatting is the practice of using misspellings, typing mistakes or alternative domain extensions to register a domain name similar to that of a well-known or frequently visited website. These are usually linked to pay-per-click advertising sites, redirect to competitor sites or occasionally even contain malware or phishing content. Whatever the case, the main objective is to draw traffic away from the website the user intends to visit.
