Free Software

Author
Not all software costs an arm and a leg. There’s lots of open source software out there which is available free (and completle legally) out there. Open Source is software in which the source code (the instructions that make it work) is freely available to anybody. They can then modify it anyway they like to suit what they need.
You don’t need to know anything about code to use it, you can just download and install it.

Open Office. This is sponsored by Sun and is a full office suite, word processing, spread sheets, databases and presentatioon software. It will open and save files in it’s own format and also in Microsoft Office format. You can download Open Office here.

Mozilla Firefox. This is a browser, like Microsoft’s Internet Explorer or Google’s Chrome. You can download Firefox here.

Mozilla Thunderbird. An email client from Mozilla, this works well for handling all your email. You can download Thunderbird here.

There’s also non open source software that’s available for free use in certain conditions. AVG provides a free version of their anti virus software for home use. It’s really good and anti virus is essential to protect your computer. Download AVG free here.

New Special Offer

Author
TekBusters have a new special offer this month. For the first 20 customers only we are offering a free report on their website and how SEO might help them.
What is SEO? Search Engine Optimisation is the process of making sure search engines (like Google, Bing, Yahoo, Ask etc) know what it is you do. So if you sell Widgets in White Rock, can I find you that way. If I type “Where can I buy a widget in White Rock” into Google, do we find your site? The next step is to get you higher up in the results. Studies have shown that people searching generally click on one of the first 3 results, not so good if you are listed at number 117.

With this free report you can see

  • How search engines see you
  • How some one searching for you can find you.
  • Ways to improve on this.

Why go with SEO? More and more people search online now for products and services. When was the last time you used the phone book? Or tried to remember where you seen that ad in the newspaper? From searching for holidays or cars, restaurants or services more and more people use the internet to find it. You may have a very nice web page, but if it’s not found, it’s not working for you.

Why not contact us and find out more.
