Need a cheap (or rather free) office pack…? Try out this free office pack and see if it that you can use. You don’t have to waste money on Microsoft Office. Go opensource. I have chosen to use mostly opensource and free (public domain) software and PHP-scripts. I buy software rarely these days. Can I find a free alternativ I go for it.

I recommend the portable version of Open Office 3.
Stick it on a USB memory pen and you are good to go.

See screenshots below.

I recently came across 2 good videos, one from John Chow and one from Yaro Starak. So I’m embedding them in this blogentry with links back to their original posts.

First up is John Chow…

And Yaro Starak next…

Hopefully, we learned something today.

By enabling gzip in .htaccess (only on linux/unix servers) you can save bandwidth and load time. Use the code below to insert into a .htaccess file in your website/blog/forum/etc. root directory.

<IfModule mod_gzip.c>
mod_gzip_on Yes
mod_gzip_dechunk Yes
mod_gzip_item_include file \.(html?|txt|css|js|php|pl|jpg|png|gif)$
mod_gzip_item_include handler ^cgi-script$
mod_gzip_item_include mime ^text/.*
mod_gzip_item_include mime ^application/x-javascript.*
mod_gzip_item_exclude mime ^image/.*
mod_gzip_item_exclude rspheader ^Content-Encoding:.*gzip.*
</IfModule>

Check with your web host if you have this apache module enabled: mod_czip.c. It will compress the files for you so they are faster to send to the browser. This supposedly speeds transfer up 35-40%. Then file sizes drop 55-65%.

I have done it on this blog. Hopefully it speeds it up.
