Today the new iOS4 is released for Apples iPhone and iPad. This is a free upgrade. I love free stuff. There are some great new features you should know about in this update.
Here are just a few:
- Multitasking
- Folders
- Improved Email
- iBooks
If you’re ready to update to iOS4, be sure to use iTunes to backup your iPhone/iPod/iPad first. Then check for updates. When the update is available, iTunes will let you know and walk you through the process. I was able to upgrade a little early, thanks to these instructions from Jason Powell.
An excellent walkthrough of the features of iOS4 is in the video below.

Handbrake Rips and Converts Your Video Files
Posted by admin in Compression, Downloads, Free Stuff, home, how to, Instruction, Internet, productivity, Technology & Gadgets, Timesavers, tips, Tools, Tricks & Hacks on February 17, 2010
Handbrake is a piece of software I use nearly every week. It’s a free program designed to efficiently rip DVDs to editable video files on your computer. Handbrake will also convert files of one format to another.
Download the Handbrake installer here [~5MB exe]. Run the installer with all the default settings and you’re ready to start ripping DVDs.
1) Choose the source using the “Source” button at the top left corner of the Handbrake window. There are options to choose a file or DVD.
2) Choose the destination for the out put in the main frame of the Handbrake window. I normally use the Desktop or the Videos folder in My Documents.
3) Choose your output settings using either a preset (right side frame) or customize using the tabs in the main section of the Handbrake window.
4) Click “Start” on the toolbar. You’ll see a DOS-looking window open with progress information. Wait until it’s done, then look at the destination folder for your new file.
Note: I offer this tip and software as a resource for professional and personal use. This software should not be used for illegal purposes, such as pirating movies.
