  • How to Create Static Pages in Blogger

    Note:
    Blogger now supports static pages. To learn how to create pages in Blogger, follow the instructions outlined in How to Create Pages in Blogger.

    With some coding, you can easily create static pages in Blogger. For many blog authors, WordPress is the management system of choice. It provides the most flexibility and options for managing blogs. For those that are not using WordPress, Blogger is a good, free option. Blogger, however, is not nearly as flexible to use as WordPress. There are fewer options and templates for that system. The one drawback of using Blogger is the inability of uploading, and using static HTML pages.

    There is a simple workaround that you can use to create pages in your Blogger blog that will mimic static pages. I will discuss how to create and use those pages in this post.

  • Recovering Data from a Hard Drive with Bad Sectors

    Recovering Data from a Hard Drive with Bad Sectors

    I have dealt with many hard drive failures in the past, and most of the time it was the result of bad sectors. Other times it was a complete failure where the hard drive wouldn’t even power up. In the latter instance there isn’t much you can do to retrieve your data.

    As for bad sectors, you may still be able to retrieve your data, if you have the right tool. It is difficult to copy data from a damaged hard drive, especially in Windows since it would usually stop the copy when it encounters a bad sector. Recently, I managed to retrieve over 5GB of data from a hard drive with many bad sectors, and in this post I’ll tell you how I did it.

    Websites For People Who Have Already Made It

    When you look at all the people who work online and have websites, generally they will fall into only a few demographics. They tend to be young people, mostly male, who aren’t overly happy in their jobs and are trying to get out, or younger still who are trying to ‘make it’ online before they have to ever go into the world of work. These are the people who see working online as a chance to make their dreams happen – to make some money, maybe to get some fame and hopefully impress some girls/guys along the way too.

    The good news is that if you know what you’re doing then this really is a way to achieve those things and there are plenty of examples of people who have – I’m not saying that you should stop chasing the dream if that describes you, rather what I’m doing is calling other people to join in.

    Specifically I’m talking about the people who have already ‘made it’ – the celebrities, the wealthy business men and women and the people who were just fortunate enough to have been born with a silver spoon in their mouth. Why?

Allow me to explain…
