<video.google.com>: Now you can search transcripts of certain American TV news programs. Not as good as Nexis transcripts, but, hey, it’s free. Am sure it’s coming soon: video clips.

The two biggest search engines worldwide are Google (used by Google / AOL) and Overture (used by MSN / Yahoo). Google fills it’s database mainly by letting robots automatically crawl and index the web. The Overture database is mainly filled through affiliate programs. That will cost you, so let’s focus on Google for now. Google is the cooler one anyway…

Just because everyone feels that they have a solution to someone else’s problems, new forms of technology are created. Some technology is created to process word files and improve the use of the computer while others are created to enhance the use of the Internet.

Because the Internet is so widely used, countless developers are coming up with tools that will make the Internet more user friendly. Several browsers are created one competing against the other as far as performance goes. Two highly competitive browsers are Microsoft’s Internet Explorer and Firefox.

Internet Explorer has been around since the creation of windows. It is used by several individuals. It has many wonderful browsing features as well as some safety features such as a pop up blocker. Though it is extremely popular, Firefox is gaining momentum as people are catching onto the numerous benefits.

One benefit that Firefox has that totally outdoes Internet Explorer is the enhanced popup blocker. Unlike Internet Explorer’s popup blocker that only halfway does the trick, Firefox’s popup blocker blocks out all of the annoying ads. You’ll never again have to see them on your computer. What’s more, you do not need supplemental programs to block annoying ads as does Internet Explorer.

Should you wan to open new web pages, you do not need to open them in new windows. Rather, you can use tabs. What’s more, you can open them in the background.

If you are filling in any forms online, Firefox will save the details for you so you will not have to go back and enter them in a second time. This is great, especially if you are going to sites you’ll use more than once such as Google or advertising sites like Craigslist. This detail alone is not only a time saver: but, it makes life online easier.

When using Firefox, you’ll also have better online security. Spyware, adware and malicious software cannot automatically install themselves into the browser unlike Internet Explorer. This means that you’ll not have to worry about your browser being hijacked to the point of having to repair your OS or totally reformat it all together.

Though Firefox possesses many great attributes, there are some disadvantages to using the browser. For example, its tight security makes ActiveX impossible to run which is a major problem since countless developers use ActiveX to deliver various applications to desktops. This makes it impossible to ditch Internet Explorer completely as if you wanted to use ActiveX, you’ll need to switch browsers.

In order to decide whether Firefox has really replace Internet Explorer will require that you are looking at the entire picture. It is imperative that you have all the facts. Also, just because you have switched to Firefox does not mean that you should forget about updating and patching Internet Explorer on a regular basis. Though Firefox is a great browser, you’ll still need to rely on Internet Explorer for certain things, especially when it comes to making up for the weaknesses found in Firefox.

If you’re getting “out of memory” or “hard disk full” errors you’re most likely running out of hard drive space.

You probably aren’t running into this problem if your computer is relatively new because newer computers have huge hard drives allowing you to store a ton of data.

But don’t worry if you are getting errors there’s a few easy ways to clean up your hard drive and get that extra space back

Uninstall Unused Software Programs
This is the first thing you should do. If you’ve downloaded programs and installed things you no longer use don’t let them waste space uninstall them.

Go to: Start–>Settings–>Control Panel–>Add/Remove Programs

Then simply remove the ones you don’t use. Make sure before you uninstall anything you know what it is so you don’t remove somthing important because you may lose the data from saved files depending on the program.

Delete Temporary Internet Files
Everytime you go to a website some of the information is saved to your computer so the next time you go there it can access the information faster. These files are not needed and over time can take up a lot of space.

If you are using Internet Explorer go to:
Tools–>Internet Options

You should see “Temporary Internet Files” in the middle of the page, you can go ahead and click the delete button.

One word of caution. If you go to websites where you save the login and don’t have a 3rd party program that keeps track of your accounts when you delete the Temporary Internet Files you will lose the automatic login to websites until you retype them in when you access those sites.

So if you have usernames and passwords that are really important to a certain website make sure you get it before you delete your Temporary files.

Delete System Temporary Files
Most programs you access create temporary files on your hard drive. These files are not always removed and after a while can take up a lot of space. Windows has a FREE disk cleanup program right in it just go to.

Start–>Programs–>System Tools–>Disk Cleanup
