Recommended Windows Softwares for your PC

Rainmeter
A multi-featured desktop customization tool for creating a better looking or atleast geek-like desktop. There's so much you could do with this tool i.e. customizing a calendar , configuring an RSS feeds etc to display on your desktop.

VLC media player
This is by far the best media player I've come across, highly customizable, flexible and light weighted, users have option of boosting volumw upto 400% and can download skins. I'm yet to come across a video format that can't be played using this media player. And with Windows media player not being included by default in the upcoming Windows 8, all you have to do is download the latest version of the VLC media player and you're good to go.

Google Earth
This software will fasinate you, but only if you've got a fast internet connection. A friend once told me that you sure could use Google Earth to zoom in on a small goal post ~i believe they call it monkey posts~. Haven't come around finding out if he's right.

Fences
Yet another wonderful desktop customization tool that enables windows user to group/re-order their desktop icons in a good looking customizable container. With Fences, users can organise their icons without the limitation of windows ie arrangement to the left, desktop looks neat, plus hiding/unhiding desktop icons is just a double click away.

Autoruns
Displays programs that runs or starts up automatically with windows and allows user to disable them, allowing for faster boot time.

Scribus
Scribus is an amazing easy to use desktop publishing software that you could use to design fliers, banners, newsletters, magazines the list goes on, you don't need to be an expert to use this software.

NOTE: These softwares are free

iPhone 5 Excitement

Following Apple's official annoucement of the iPhone 5, the internet and smartphone market has been dominated by talks of the iPhone 5. Most people are of the opinion that the iPhone 5 isn't much of a game changer as it still has the same old iPhone look that's getting boring despite the change in screen size and also the fact that the iPhone has no news worthy feature. Verdict: Not buzz worthy iPhone 5 is slated to be released September 21st.

Opera mini unable to connect on Airtel

I notice that the Opera Mini browser app on my phone doesn't connect anymore on the Airtel network. Initially I thought it might have been a problem with the particular browser but later found that the Opera Mini did work on the MTN network. Since I'm currently on a 1 month bundle guess I'd have to go back to using UC Browser or UC Web as it's now known as.

Abuja to buy Spy Balloons

Words in the air is that the Administration of Abuja plans on spending about N295 million on Spy Balloons, in a bid to improve security. Wonder why Spy Balloons would be required when cctv are installed in every nook and cranny of the capital city, not forgetting that we also have a functional satelite in space. Spy Balloon is such an obsolete technology, considering that they have been around even before World War I, hence would be a waste of valuable resources.
