WINDOWS 8 New Slider Views




Not Just About Metro

I'll take you on an app tour shortly, but first I want to mention some features built into Windows 8 that improve on earlier editions of Windows. The Metro interface and the Microsoft store have garnered considerable scrutiny, but other aspects of Windows 8 may be more important to users who are considering upgrading. Though most of the Windows 8 sales volume will come from the OS's inclusion on new systems shipped with the OS, PC users who are considering upgrades naturally want to know whether the pain of upgrading will pay off in better performance and broader functionality. Here's a brief rundown of "under-the-hood" improvements to Windows 8:
  • Smaller memory footprint: Windows 8 uses memory more efficiently and requires less memory to run. This is important for systems like Ultrabooks, which often ship with 4GB of nonupgradable RAM, some of which must be allocated to the graphics frame buffer.
  • More-efficient performance: Windows 8 and its underlying subsystems consume less of the CPU's resources than previous incarnations do. That's important for ultraportables and tablets, whose CPU performance may lag behind that of higher-end systems.
  • Reduced disk-space requirement: As solid-state drives become increasingly common, disk space for user files will be at a premium.
  • HyperV integration: This advance is crucial for enterprises and businesses that rely on VMs to run work apps in a world where people want to bring their own devices to work.
  • Built-in SkyDrive integration: Cloud storage is now an integral part of the operating system.
  • Improved multimonitor support: Among Windows 8's features for handling multiple monitors is the new ability to adjust and set the location of the task bar.
Most of these differences, with the possible exception of improved multidisplay support, won't have special appeal to desktop PC power users, but they will have major a impact on the effectiveness of mobile systems, which often ship with constrained memory, CPU, and storage.

App Improvements

Unhappy Windows users criticized the limited functionality of earlier incarnations of Windows 8's included Metro apps. The latest release's included apps--Music, Mail, Video, and News, among others--are much more polished, though a few rough edges remain.

5 Steps to an Awesome Reputation in Your (online) Community

Everyone knows the value of a good reputation, so why are people so slow to manage their reputations online?  After all, whether you’re truly yourself, or if you’ve adopted an online persona, your reputation on the Internet is still an extension of your reputation.  Unfortunately, with the web still being a bit of the new Wild West in addition to the ever eye-roll-inducing keyboard muscle, people tend to forget that they are accountable for their actions while surfing the web.




How can people easily manage their reputation online without having to constantly think about it?  Pretty simply, actually.  Pending no major reputation crisis, simply manage your life online as you do in the real world.
  • Get Involved in the Community – Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, blogging, whatever you choose, become a pillar of your online community.  Find out where  the big players in your industry are spending their time, and get involved.  Interact with customers, other businesses, industry pros, and people who just want to chat – you never know where your next great relationship may start out.
  • If a Conflict Should Arise, Take it Outside – Just like you don’t want to have a screaming match in front of the guests at a cocktail party, you don’t want to engage in an argument on a public forum for all of your followers to see.  Treat your feeds, streams, and comments as if they were parties in your own home, and act accordingly.
  • Be a Good Neighbor – Respect others in your industry, and lend a helping hand when needed.  Share links, comment on posts, and help keep the good ones around.  Remember, the reputation of your industry affects the reputation of your company.
  • Curb Appeal is Important – Your home represents who you are as a family, your home page (andsocial media profile pages) represent your company.  Keep it clean and up to date to ensure you’re giving the best initial impression possible.
  • Don’t Forget to Take Out the Trash – Unfortunately, along with keeping things running smoothly, there will always be a bit of waste that needs to be discarded.  Don’t be afraid to get rid of things that are keeping you from moving forward.  Whether it is old equipment, questionable vendors, incompatible clients, or unnecessary technology – there are things that may need to be removed from your life to make it easier.
Manage your online personal and business life just like your real-life personal and business life.  You’ll be on your way to a stellar reputation in no time!  (If you don’t do the things mentioned above in real life, you may want to take a look at your behavior both online AND offline. ;) )
