FREE Auto Insurance?!

It seems like you can't turn on a TV these days without learning how much money you can save on auto insurance. Save $400 with our company! Save $350 with our company in only 15 minutes! I can't seem to figure out why we don't all switch auto insurance companies a number of times, and then they'd be paying us! That's even better than FREE!!

Free Stickers!

I recently went on a web search to find out how I could get some cool stickers for my snowboard, truck, binders, etc. Basically I wanted to be able to rep the companies I like and use everyday, as well as put some cool stickers on my stuff. Most companies require you to send them a self addressed, unsealed envelope which they will then send you stickers back in. I sent out to 29 different companies and was hesitant at first whether or not I'd get much back. This was all done about a week ago, and today I got my first stickers! Oakley sent me 2 stickers, one decent sized and one smaller sticker. Once I get more stickers back I will post them so you can see just how many stickers you can get for free from companies. If you have any questions on how this process works contact me and I'll be more than happy to share!

Dropbox

As more things start moving towards the 'cloud' it is going to become hard for people to avoid it. In my opinion, the future will see a massive move towards files and just about everything else saved on your computer being available in the 'cloud'. Dropbox is a perfect example.

Dropbox is easily downloaded onto your computer(s) and smartphone, allowing you to access any files contained in your 'box' from any computer connected to the internet. Gone are the days of e-mailing yourself a photo or document you may need for a class or project at work. Now it's as easy as dropping the file into your 'box' and accessing it right from your work or school computer.

Another aspect of this new trend is the affect it may have on jump-drives (aka thumb-drives). These little storage devices were excellent when you needed to transfer something from one computer to another, but they may become obsolete with the 'cloud'. Jump-drives can be lost or misplaced, but your storage online will always remain there. The only counter-argument I can fathom to this discussion is the price of online storage vs the price of portable storage. Will people be willing to pay for storage online? For the most part people probably don't understand the concept entirely for now, but I have a feeling they will soon.

In addition to being able to access your files from any computer with internet access, you can access your files from your smartphone by downloading the Dropbox app. The possibilities are endless with what you could need to use Dropbox for but one thing is for sure, it is a brilliant idea. I recommend this program/app to anyone who uses computers on a daily basis and has a need for moving files from place to place with ease.

You can download the program from Dropbox.com
