How to Sync Outlook and Google Apps Business users have gotten used to Outlook. The email client for the more than one billion Microsoft Office users on the planet has become second nature. But some companies are finding that it saves them money and maintenance to let Google host their email, calendars, and contacts, even though this means a third party will have access to email contents and targeted display ads appear in the inbox. If you could use Outlook with your Google Apps Mail (really just Gmail), you don't have to see these ads, and you get a preview panel, inbox sorting, rich formatting, right-click options, social connector, and most of the other tools Outlook offers. Thankfully, Google Apps Sync for Microsoft Outlook lets you take advantage of most of Outlook's tools—but only for Outlook 2010 so far. If you run Office 2013, you can still connect to a Gmail account through IMAP, but this will only get you mail, no calendars, tasks, or contacts. Next, click the Create profile button.
Running Linux from USB: Are You Doing It Right? You’ve probably heard about live Linux environments on USB drives, but did you know that you can also keep data persistent or even do a full install on the USB drive? Here are your three options for carrying Linux in your pocket. Find out which method is best for you. Write a Live ISO to USB It’s been talked about many times before, but it’s become really easy to take an ISO image of your favorite Linux distribution and write it to any appropriately sized USB drive. However, the downside to this approach is that you’ll lose all of your data as soon as you shut down or restart the computer you’re working on. If you’d like to keep a customized Linux environment in your pocket, this isn’t what you want. Enable Persistent Data If you’re an Ubuntu user, you have the option to enable persistent data on your USB drive. This is also ideal if you use a large variety of systems with the USB drive, as the Live environment will detect what hardware is available every time it boots. Conclusion
4 Things You Can Do To Prevent Panic When Gmail Goes Down Does the world really end when Gmail goes down? It is pretty easy to take Gmail for granted because, like Microsoft Windows or that stray eyelash you can’t seem to get rid of no matter how many times you gouge your own eyes out, it is always there. But when Gmail goes down, it seems like the whole world just stops. Wait You do know that Gmail will eventually come back up, right? Before you start posting about Gmail’s demise on social media, you may want to take a closer look at your Internet connection. If it is your Internet connection, then try the old reliable “turn it off, turn it on” approach with your Internet router. Access Gmail Another Way The main Gmail user interface is not the only way that you can get to Gmail. If the website interface is down, but the service is still operating, then you may be able to access your Gmail through something like Microsoft Outlook or Windows Live Mail. Give Google Takeout a try and see if that helps. Have A Backup To Your Gmail Don’t Use Gmail
Bypassing content filters: How to see the web they don't want you to see The web is supposed to be open, but behind the scenes, content filters are often busy controlling what you see. The filters could be at your school or workplace, blocking sites such as the time-sucking YouTube from being accessed. It could be a media website that streams music and movies only to users located in specific countries. An ISP or a restrictive government could also impose content filters. International travelers are often innocent victims of these filters, when they find they can't access their digital content from wherever they're currently located. There are ways to bypass these restrictions, but be warned: Network administrators don't want you to dodge their data blockades and won't be happy if they catch you doing it. A VPN can change your apparent location When you connect to a virtual private network (VPN), your computer creates a secure, encrypted tunnel to that network over the Internet.
