Learn Hard Drive Secrets With DriveSitter Pro
If you want to know in exquisite detail absolutely everything about the functioning of your hard disk--and want to be warned if there's a danger of crashing--you'll want to give DriveSitter Pro a try. It delves deep into your hard disk and reports on a mind-boggling amount of information.

4 Tips for Better Outsourcing Deals
Nothing says "cost cutting" like a big outsourcing deal.

Twitter Tips: How To Search Twitter Smarter
It's easy to miss little gems of information on Twitter, the social networking service that allows users to exchange short messages. Because we all can't spend hours in front of the service, we miss important messages (or tweets) posted by colleagues, friends and family while we're away. As the list of people you follow on Twitter grows, the problem becomes more acute: hundreds of messages pass by and flow off the page before you've even had a chance to look at them.
Latest iMovie update adds stealthy features, fixes
Whenever Apple releases minor updates to its software offerings, you'll find us poking lighthearted jabs at the company for having extremely terse and standardized release notes. It's pretty much a given, for example, to see the phrase "improves overall stability" on the release notes of all Apple software updates. But sometimes the company slips actual new features into updates under that cover of darkness, as with the recently released 8.0.1 update for iMovie.
