Best Online Resources to Gear Up for the World Cup

February 3, 2014 by admin Leave a Comment

2014 is sure to be an exciting year for sports lovers, and one of the biggest events is sure to be The World Cup. Running from mid-June until mid-July, there will be dozens of must-see games, captivating stories and daily news that every fan will want to hear. In years past, it may have been difficult to keep up with everything that happens during an event such as this. However, with the internet and smartphones such an important part of everyday life, it will be easier than ever to get the latest information—as it happens. Consider some of these useful World Cup resources and you will never miss a goal!

The Official Website and Mobile App – world Cup

FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association) is the official governing body of soccer and the host of the World Cup. With a huge international organization like this, it only makes sense that the website is a great resource for World Cup fans. Even before the event starts, you can find out the latest news about the participating teams, venues and what to expect in the tournament. In addition, you can purchase tickets too. Once the event begins, there will be even more great information. Those who love their smartphones will enjoy the official mobile app too—which puts the official website right at your fingertips.

Odds

Whether you are interested in gambling on the game, or you just want to be educated when discussing the games with a friend or co-worker, it is important that you know the current odds on the games. An excellent resource for keeping up with these important statistics is the liveworldcupodds.com site. In addition to the odds that you would expect, this website also offers betting tips and information on how you can bet on the games.

ESPN

Everyone turns to ESPN for “regular” sports news and information, so why not choose the sports network for your World Cup coverage? ESPN’s website is adjusted to work well for mobile devices and is an especially good place to turn for qualifier information—as many of the qualifier games are broadcast on ESPN’s worldwide station or through specialty networks. As the main event draws closer, it is quite possible that ESPN will launch an actual app too—making things even easier to access for those who want to keep up using a smartphone or tablet.

No matter if you are a knowledgeable, long-time fan or this is the first World Cup event that you plan to follow, it’s a better time than ever to follow soccer. As a worldwide event, it lends itself well to internet and mobile coverage–since local coverage may not be as in-depth as the hard-core fans would like it to be. You will find that many of the bigger games will air on regular television, but if you are interested in keeping up with every aspect of the event, you will find that these websites and apps are a great way to make sure you don’t miss a moment.

2013 WordPress themes for blogs

If you got a domain and webhosting you are pretty much done to get a website up and running, but quite likely you will be stuck with some boring themes available for free from word press or then themes that are sometimes not updated that regularly which are available for “free from wordpress”

You are better off buying a theme membership package, where you will get access to more than 20 to 50+ themes depending on provider and get various different themes to suit your website for eg , shop theme , new website theme , deals website theme , Photography blog theme etc

With these Membership packages it’s either a monthly fee or a lump sum yearly fee and you get support if you run into any trouble with themes and themes are also updated to be in line with the regulator word press updates that happen. You don’t want a theme that is not regularly updated and let hackers into your website.

I am a member of all these themes below and I have used all of them on my different websites

Elegant themes

This has been one of my all time favourites in word press theme providers for 3 reasons.

The most amazing prize for a quality theme provider – $39 for 86 themes
Different types of themes, shop theme , portfolio theme, news theme they got it all
Small them file sizes in spite of the top quality means super fast theme loading times

They don’t need to provide a discount code because its a everyday discount at elegant themes. Get it here

Wpzoom themes

WP Zoom themes – They got a nice set of professional news and magazine themes in addition to blog and portfolio themes which are designed different from the elegant themes look – I’ve purchased the$9/mo -$199 SIGN-UP FEE membership option, but there are other –See pricing options

Solostream themes wordpress themes

Premium Responsive WordPress Theme australia

My this blog uses the solostream clear template – Truly SEO optimised and nicely structured blog. This word press theme compares to ( other theme providers like thesis and studio press which are $75 to 200 range ). Its a premium blog theme with excellent AdSense advertising options inbuilt which you can use for affiliate/advertising links as well which is not available inbuilt in some other premium themes.

Theme forest word press themes

You can grab great wordpress themes from as low as $3 from themeforest or the envato marketplace for themes ( clickhere ) and you can also access their vast collection of wordpress plugins over here . Currently no deals available

Get clicking with new sporty camera lens

November 19, 2013 by admin Leave a Comment

Remember when you got your first Canon or Minolta camera !! Looking back cameras in the years gone by were so simple but with not many features, but things have changed for the better.

Get professional with new canon lenses

Now you don’t need to be a singer to take great photos(like in the video below) in fact you don’t even need to be a photographer to take great photos. Once you have the right tools and the need to learn great stunning photographs can come easy. Often lay people and even amateur photographers give more importance to the camera and not enough importance to the lens.

The professionals always have an arsenal of the right lens for the right shot and that’s what separates them from the amateurs. With prices of lens and camera equipment coming down, the scene is changing and suddenly there are more people out there with more knowledge due to the internet and the skills and tools to take great pictures.

The correct lens for the correct picture settings can lend a thousand words to a picture and make it amazing. If you are using a macro lens or a landscape lens or then a sports lens, they all are suitable for a particular type of shot and can excel in clicking certain action shots. Canon who is the preferred brand of many professional photographers has now made their camera lenses easy to use even for people who are starting out. They have the sports lens for those specific sports actions shots you need to capture, they have a portrait lens for just the right portrait or modelling pictures and the macro lens for taking close ups with dramatic detail beyond the human eye.

With Canon they are always releasing new equipment for the professional and budding photography enthusiast and they have world’s most comprehensive selection of lenses. check out an wide array of different lenses over here at the canon website

Multiple personalities? How to protect your identity online

November 12, 2013 by admin Leave a Comment

We’ve all heard the stories about people who have had their identities stolen, whether it is their credit card details, their email address, Social Security number, or their driver’s license or passport. Identity theft isn’t just something that you hear about on the news though – in today’s high-tech society, it’s becoming easier for thieves to steal your identity online.

Restrict access with McAfee^® All Access

When you shop online, you input your name, credit card details, and address – and it’s the same when you do your online banking, or fill out account registration forms. Our personal information is scattered across the web, which means we could be all the more susceptible to thieves who are operating online.

However, there are ways to ensure your information is kept secure. If you want to protect your identity online, here is some information that will help you.

Firstly, why should I care?

In the US, a 2010 report found that 11.1 million adults were a victim of identity fraud. What’s more, every three seconds, an identity is stolen and in 2008, Americans incurred $54 billion in loss from identity theft.

Identity theft can occur through credit card charges, bad credit, loss of social security benefits, criminal charges (such as traffic violations or criminal records), and even medical theft. In 2009, it was estimated that one in four Americans is expected to become a victim of identity theft.

How do thieves steal your identity online?

There are multitudes of ways thieves can steal your identity online, even if the websites you are visiting have security measures in place.

Thieves can send phishing emails or instant messages (SPIM) that pretend to be from a legitimate person or organisation (such as Paypal) in an attempt to lure you to give personal information. Hackers could also install spyware, Trojan horses, or malware into your computer that can take control of your computer or direct you to invalid sites.

On top of this, thieves can install keyloggers onto your computer that log your keystrokes so hackers can record your passwords and credit card details as you type online. Also, if your wireless network at home is unsecured, thieves can use this to access data on the computers you have connected to your wireless router – this is known as Wardriving.

So how can I protect myself?

If you’re reading this and panicking, don’t despair – there are measures you can take to protect yourself online!

First off, be aware! Make sure you are aware of all the different online tricks and scams that thieves can use to obtain your personal information – this way you’ll know what to look for. Keep your personal data private and never disclose it to strangers, and also make sure to check the URL of websites before you enter any vital information. Ensure your passwords contain letters and numbers, secure your wireless network, and don’t log into banking and credit card sites while using public hotspots.

When browsing the web, use a comprehensive antivirus software such as McAfee Total Protection Software, which will protect you from spyware, malware, and viruses, as well as steer you clear of any fake websites that are trying to get your personal information. Also remember to use a firewall to block any unauthorized access to your computer or network.

If you do become a victim…

…it’s best to notify the credit bureaus and create a fraud alert, and also file a police report. Be proactive as well and contact any financial institutions or agencies where your accounts may be affected. In the worst case scenario, put a credit freeze in place or consider legal help – after all, your identity is on the line!

Have you or any of your friends or family been a victim of identity theft?

Tablets fighting back against smartphones

November 9, 2013 by admin Leave a Comment

At one point in time, there seemed to be a clear distinction between smartphones and tablets: the former was your go-to device for calling, texting, and checking email, while the latter was used for recreational purposes like gaming and video steaming. However, as more tablets begin to offer calling capabilities, the line between the two devices has become somewhat blurred. Let’s take a look at what improved calling capabilities mean for the future of tablets:

Could a Tablet Replace Your Primary Phone?

Whereas users once had to download apps like Skype and Viber to make VoIP and video calls on their tablets, the next generation of tablets is equipped with all the features you need to turn it into your primary phone. The new Nexus tablet comes with the option of 4G LTE connectivity, as does the new Samsung Galaxy Tab and Galaxy Note devices. The new ASUS Fonepad incorporates full 3G-phone functionality so that users have fast, reliable coverage whenever they want to make a call.

For those who think that a tablet is too large to make phone calls with comfortably, consider this: you don’t have to hold the tablet up to your ear to make a call. Instead, you can take advantage of in-line mic headphones or a Bluetooth headset, thereby eliminating concern over the awkward sizing of tablet devices.

Phone, Tablet, or Phablet?

In reality, tablets aren’t that much larger than top-of-the-line smartphones. After all, the latest trend in smartphones is to make larger displays that are better for browsing, viewing, and gaming. You need look no further than the HTC One or the Samsung Galaxy S4 handsets for examples of this point. The HTC One measures a whopping 137.4mm (5.41”), while the Samsung Galaxy S4 measures 136.7mm (5.38”). Needless to say, it’s a struggle for the average person to fit either one of these devices in the palm of their hand.

By contrast, tablets are more compact than ever. The Samsung Galaxy Note 3 comes in a 151.2mm (5.9”) model, while the Asus FonePad is offered in a slightly larger size—152.4mm (6”). The Samsung Galaxy Tab, Nexus 7, and Asus FonePad all come in 177.8mm (7”) models as well. In fact, the differences between smartphones and tablets are so indistinguishable these days that some of these smaller tablets with phone capabilities are actually being referred to as phone tablets, or “phablets.”

Smartphones and Tablets Go Head to Head

Whether you decide to invest in one of the new phone tablets or stick with a more traditional mobile device like the BlackBerry Z10 or iPhone 5s, one thing is clear: by offering more functionality, tablets are fighting back against smartphones for control of the global market share. But tablet makers have a lot of catching up to do. According to statistics from Tech Crunch, smartphones accounted for 60.1% of the global market share in 2012, while tablets accounted for just 10.7%. It is worth noting that while tablets control only a small portion of the market, sales of these devices grew 78.4% year-on-year in 2012, and are forecasted to grow a whopping 109.9% through 2017, surpassing both desktop and portable PCs in market share. Test out the next generation of tablets to see what everyone is talking about.
