because you value your mind

The minute you settle for less than you deserve, you get even less than you settled for.

Schedule text messages to yourself, your husband or mother to remind them about your birthday, buy something or to make that call. All you have to do is insert a cellphone number, a specified date & time and a message. OhDontForget is free and doesn’t have any strings attached.

Currently, OhDontForget only works with US and selected Canadian cell providers. Anyways, the author is working on a global domination plan, so perhaps he’ll include bringing OhDontForget to the rest of the world! Give the author your opinion if you have one at ohdontforget@gmail.com

Qunu is like a search engine. You enter your question or query, submit and get results. You might have entered a question that may have no expert in it, but you can ask ‘friendly’ available experts. Actually, all of them are volunteering their time and expertise for various reasons, but mainly so that you get a quick answer to the problem you’re currently experiencing. It’s different from others in the sense that it uses instant messaging to make the support realtime.

As the time of writing, the experts are mostly on programming languages. You may type a question there and end up not getting any help in it. So what I would suggest is to go to the directory of tags and click on a tag that you may find relevant to your question.

Help this potential site grow. Join the pool of expert. You may be good in ‘cooking fish n chips’ or ‘train a dog stop biting it’s tail’. What matters is the value of what you are able to offer. Anyway, I have signed myself up and you can find me by the tag of ‘writer’s block’.

If you own a network of servers, printers, hubs, switches and other netwokring devices, you’ll be glad you read this. I was surfing as usual (actually that’s what i do everyday) and came across this network information management tool that is just awesome. No, it’s super awesome cause it’s FREE! Here’s a screenshot statistics of the assets in my network.

Here’s 5 reasons why this simple application rocks.

1. Lists the network hardware and software and generates the report to manage them.

Any device with an IP address will be scoured. Softwares, patches, and devices of the machine will then be read. Information such as expiry dates and license numbers plus searchable tags can easily be added to the inventory. Relax, as sensitive information is kept secure locally and there’s no need for agents in each machine. VMI, SSH and SNMP protocols are used to safely scan the network.

2. Supervises on low disk space, software issues and even low printer provisions.

Right after installing, I was warned on a low disk space issue in my C drive. Manual monitoring is possible with a few clicks and you can also set up email alerts. This point is more valuable to the needs of SMBs (Small Medium Businesses).

3. Reports on the condition of the network infrastructure.

Choose which report to generate. Examples are inventory summaries, low disk spaces, printers, copiers, etc. Export reports in PDF or Excel to share.

4. Trail known issues and manage work with tickets.

Manage devices and software with a ticket that is automatically attached to simplify work. It can be later used to sort and generate comparisons to track and isolate problematic machines.

5. Search for answers and information.

No one is expected to know everything so which is why there is a feature included that enables anyone to ask the Spiceworks community questions from anywhere on the Spaceworks Desktop. Relevent information is also presented to meet needs. There’s the ability to link directly to a vendor’s site to get the necessary patches and product.

Don’t listen to me. Just try it. Anyways, more than 15, 000 SMBs in the world are already using it.
