Editor's Notes
- Extreme example of too many toolbars in Internet Explorer. You would never do this… would you?
- Removing Toolbars Nothing eats up your screen real estate more than adding toolbars to Internet Explorer. During tech support calls we have seen screens with a small 3 to 4 inch scrolling window. All the other space is taken up by the multitude of toolbars that come with Explorer or add to Explorer. There is one for Bing, one for Google, one for Yahoo, antivirus programs have them etc. etc. Most are not necessary for display or installation. All, shrink your available workspace decreasing your productivity. For example, extra toolbars take up about an inch of my screen and install conflicting pop-up blockers and security features on top of what is already provided by Explorer. To turn these toolbars off, go to Tools – Toolbars – and de-select toolbars you do not want to display. I removed everything but the Menu Bar and the Command Bar. I gained an extra inch of productivity space and deleted conflicting security and pop up programs. Toolbars are a marketing tool for software companies. Almost every feature they provide is already provided in Explorer. Take some time to free yourself of toolbars and take control of your screen space.
- http://www.google.com/alerts Set up Alerts (Google) for news on new or existing customers. (limit volume and use “ ” ) Other news sources (ie local TV & newspapers online) interviews – (bragging) or they may uncover fires, thefts, store closings etc Business Journal online- news, SBA loans, suits, liens etc
- Cloud computing is Internet-based computing, whereby shared resources, software, and information are provided to computers and other devices on demand. Cloud computing describes a new supplement, consumption, and delivery model for IT services based on the Internet, and it typically involves over-the-Internet provision of dynamically scalable and often virtualized resources.

- Using human knowledge and computational knowledge search is getting Trekie. These search engines are way beyond Google, but very specific in their nature. You may not need to use them as often. When you do their information could be priceless.
- Example of the CBS sports site on an iPhone. First screen is their actual website on the iPhone. Second is the mobile version of their website on the iPhone. Third is their iPhone app. More than four in 10 Americans say they “can’t live” without their mobile phone and and nearly half sleep with it nearby, according to a global mobile-phone survey from Synovate, which found that cellphones are increasingly becoming consumers’ “remote controls for life.” Avoid - sleeping with your phone.
- Networking in LinkedIn groups is beneficial for benchmarking, having credit questions answered and for advancing your career. There are about 12 groups on LinkedIn related to business credit and collections.
- Facebook Pages are created by companies, events, movements etc. They are a place for people to like the company, event etc. to gather and share information. Several NACM Affiliates and business credit service providers have Facebook Pages.
- You have heard it a million times “back up your data”. Most of us do not heed the warning until we have been crushed by a hard drive failure. I was one of those, until I found Carbonite. Carbonite is a “set it then forget it” backup. You don’t need any hardware. Simply download the Carbonite software select the folders you want watched for backups, then Carbonite does the rest. The backups run incrementally throughout the day so that all your latest work, pictures etc are saved. I have used it twice to recover from hard drive failure and to transfer data to a new computer. It worked great each time. Best $55 bucks I spend each year.
