Back when you learned to drive, you may have been instructed to keep your hands on the wheel at 10 o’clock and 2 o’clock. Of course, the older you got, the more likely that rule was relegated to the realm of “suggestion,” especially as the equipment in our cars—stereos, onboard navigation, even climate control—got more and more complicated. And of course, there’s the all too common sight today of someone speeding past you while chatting merrily away on his or her cell phone. But if you’re a California resident, it’s time to hang up and drive. As of Tuesday, most drivers in the Golden State are prohibited from talking on their cell phone while driving unless they’re using a handsfree device, such as a Bluetooth headset. The law aims to reduce the number of accidents that occur because people are distracted while talking on the phone, which some reports contend can be as dangerous as driving while intoxicated. Californians pulled over while using their cell phones without a … [Read more...] about Hands on the wheel: California enacts cell-phone driving ban

You've just finished an iMovie documenting your family reunion, and you'd like to show it to your beloved Aunt Mildred. But there's a problem: she's behind a corporate firewall that won't allow e-mail messages over 2MB to cross its borders. The solution? Serve it from the Web, free of charge. Apple iDisk , MySpace , and Xdrive are all Web sites that provide server space for your files at no cost to you. Whether you want to share files with friends and family, cut down on Zip disks, or access your files on the go from any Internet-equipped computer, there is an online storage solution out there for you. Since each site offers free space, price isn't an issue. Instead, we looked at which sites offer the most storage space and ease-of-use. Xdrive starts you off with a moderate 50MB, but it's relatively easy to earn enough points to go all the way up to 100MB by accumulating referrals. iDisk gives users only 20MB of free space, although users have the option to purchase up to … [Read more...] about Online Storage Sites

NBC Universal and News Corp. fired what both companies hope is the first shot across the bow of digital content giants like Apple’s iTunes Store and Google’s YouTube with the launch of a private beta version of Hulu , their long-gestating Web-based video platform. Positioned as a competitor to both online media stores and free video-sharing sites, Hulu is largely an attempt by content providers to exert more control over their own product, cutting out middlemen such as Apple. But that’s the big-picture view—what does it mean for people like you and me who just want to watch videos? While Hulu is just beginning to send out invites to its beta period, I got to take the service for a test drive this week to see how it works for a—shall we say— avid television watcher. Killer content In August, Apple and NBC had a very public falling out over pricing at the iTunes Store. The end result of this dispute is reflected in iTunes’ current video offerings . New seasons of … [Read more...] about First Look: Hulu video service

Editor’s Note: The following article is reprinted from PCWorld.com . What’s okay on Facebook ? On sites like MySpace , anything goes (or seems to), but the rules of etiquette on Facebook seem to be a little more refined—not a lot, mind you, but a little. Keep these tips in mind, whether you’re making your first friend or your 1000th. Consider how many friends you really want Some people adopt an everyone-welcome policy on Facebook and accept all friend requests; some only want real-world contacts in their friends list. In deciding on the right approach for you, bear in mind that the bigger your friend network is, the more application, event, chat session, and cause invitations you’ll receive—and that can lead to some uncomfortable moments and the occasional friend purge. Go easy on the updates As on Twitter, oversharing on Facebook can be a problem. Every meal eaten, every TV show experienced, and every weather condition observed need not be the subject of a status … [Read more...] about Top Facebook etiquette tips

May 23, 2019 - 16:41 BST Hanna Fillingham Some sad news has been revealed that will be devastating for Prince Harry and Prince William Africa is a place close to both Prince William and Prince Harry 's hearts, and is the very place that Prince Charles took them after the death of their mother Princess Diana in 1997, in a bid to help them with their grief. Harry in particular is a regular visitor to Botswana, and they will both no doubt be devastated to hear about the country's decision to lift the ban on elephant hunting, which was announced on Thursday. The ban first came about in 2014 by former president Ian Khama, but lawmakers from the ruling Botswana Democratic party have been lobbying to overturn the ban because they believe that the number of animals have become unmanageable in some areas. Prince Harry is passionate about protecting elephants Botswana has the largest elephant population in Africa, and have … [Read more...] about Sad news revealed for Prince Harry and Prince William
