			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>These two <a href="http://elite.spotgold.info/convertible-crib/">Convertible Crib</a> types of printers achieve the same thing. They both print, but they go about it in a very different manner. There <a href="http://docs.aegeneral.cn/heater/ceramic-heater-propane">Ceramic Heater Propane</a> major differences in the engines that drive them <a href="http://forum.xggeneral.cn/home-equity-loans/ameriquest-mortgage-home-equity-loans">Ameriquest Mortgage Home Equity Loans</a> the work they are required to do.</p>
<p>Laser printers are designed to be used in a heavy work load environment. The cost per print is much less expensive compared to <a href="http://auspicious.thepointclick.info/soap-dispenser/blanco-harvest-chrome-soap-dispenser">Blanco Harvest Chrome Soap Dispenser</a> models. Laser printers use a dry mono-component toner cartridge and a laser that shoots the image onto a drum inside the toner cartridge.</p>
<p>Inkjet printers are designed for a different work load. They are designed more for a work station such as an individualâ€™s desk or for low volume type work. The toner or ink is quite expensive. Most are slow, so using them in a high volume <a href="http://archive.nfgeneral.cn/home-improvement-loan/title-one-home-improvement-loan-texas">Title One Home Improvement Loan Texas</a> would drive a person crazy waiting for a hundred page report. Let me say something about the cost of Inkjet cartridges. I read an article that said that Inkjet cartridges are more expensive per weight than imported Russian Caviar. Inkjets use a liquid ink that is <a href="http://blog.jhgeneral.cn/foam-mattress/memory-foam-mattress-topper-questions">Memory Foam Mattress Topper Questions</a> onto the paper. They all have a scanner rail that goes back and forth, carrying the Ink cartridges distributing the ink.</p>
<p>I read a post that several people commented on. They said that Hewlett Packard has really gone down hill lately with the quality of their printers. They were commenting on the HP LaserJet 4, a very popular laser printer of the past. It is about ten to years old, but it is a very dependable printer. I still use one in my office!</p>
<p>They were comparing it to several new HP Inkjet Printers. These are completely different machines for completely different applications. If you want to compare this machine to another HP product use the HP laser jet 4250. You really canâ€™t compare these either. The memory, speed and options are made for the latest printing applications. Remember that the HP LJ- 4 was built around 386 computers. By the way, my HP LJ-4 works great with XP.</p>
<p>The price of Inkjet printers is driven by consumers that want something cheap. You get what you pay for. It is the market that creates cheap Inkjet printers. They do work well, but <a href="http://fast.rageneral.info/holistic-medicine/holistic-medicine-association-germany">Holistic Medicine Association Germany</a> they break they are not designed to repair. They are known as disposable printers. Not all Inkjet printers are disposable printers. The Inkjet is really <a href="http://archive.zhgeneral.cn/yoga-mats/wai-lana-yoga-mats">Wai Lana Yoga Mats</a> and will continue to fill more of the market place. Speed has been an issue but now they have designed some that keep up with the speed of laser printers. HP color Inkjets also make terrific color prints. Even a person with a limited budget can make great presentations, photos and flyers.</p>
<p>When you purchase a printer, you should always consider the type of application that it will be used for. Donâ€™t buy an Inkjet when youâ€™re going to be printing hundreds of reports. Donâ€™t buy a laser printer if you print two or three jobs a day. If you look at cost per print and monthly volume you canâ€™t go wrong. Hewlett Packard printers are some of the best you can buy, but you need to use them in the proper application.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Credit card <a href="http://easy.kdgeneral.info/free-personals/free-personals-wilmington">Free Personals Wilmington</a> relief grant is another help, which is available to you. Generally credit card <a href="http://docs.cageneral.cn/universal-life-insurance/universal-life-insurance-and-instant-quote">Universal Life Insurance And Instant Quote</a> consolidation <a href="http://blog.edgeneral.cn/telephone-service/embarq-telephone-service">Embarq Telephone Service</a> times builds up an amount that is so high that <a href="http://round.pickclick.info/ladies-watches/festina-ladies-watches">Festina Ladies Watches</a> becomes <a href="http://archive.pggeneral.cn/medical-malpractice-lawyer/new-haven-medical-malpractice-lawyer">New Haven Medical Malpractice Lawyer</a> to handle it, <a href="http://archive.dfgeneral.cn/salmon/">Salmon</a> apart paying it back. This may happen due to various reasons. <a href="http://docs.bggeneral.cn/interest-credit-card/mbna-0-interest-credit-card-offer">Mbna 0 Interest Credit Card Offer</a> may be due to a long time of unplanned investment decision, it can be due to neglect card bills or it can be due to a <a href="http://smoke.vbgeneral.info/bird-cage/noble-towers-bird-cage">Noble Towers Bird Cage</a> number of high interest cards. Whatever be the reason it all leads to the same result of high credit card debt. Now at times the debt consolidators also help out through their own devised plans of debt relief grant. Credit card relief grant may promote grants to the customer, which may not be a full-fledged discount but could help out in getting out of the tricky situation.</p>
<p><b>Helpful Relief</b></p>
<p>Under such situation, non-profit debt relief is very helpful, as these plans check out the situation and help in devising a proper plan for them. However, only very few genuine companies are available in the market but still, their whereabouts can be found out and they can be approached for appointments as debt consolidators. However, at times these companies, which claim that they will be giving non-profit relief, turn out to be a big menace. The kind of charges that they levy upon the customer may be exorbitantly high and this may leave you wondering about the feasibility of the transaction.</p>
<p><b>Problems With The Debt Consolidators</b></p>
<p>Also, at times these companies keep on collecting money but pay back the creditors late which makes the situation all the more worst. Firstly there is a problem of huge pilled up bills and then this problem of so called debt consolidation arises out which makes it further knotty as late fees charges are an addition to the cost.</p>
<p>So just keep a check on the company that you are appointing as your consolidators. Are they providing you <a href="http://archive.nageneral.cn/air-conditioners/ceiling-mounted-room-air-conditioners">Ceiling Mounted Room Air Conditioners</a> debt relief grant through their non-profit debt relief or are they making the situation all the worse?</p>
<p>For information on such companies, you can check with Better Business Bureau and other similar institutions whether any complaint has been lodged against them earlier or not. In case of any complaints, you know what to do.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.best-credit-card-debt-consolidation.com/credit_card_debt_relief.html">Credit card debt relief</a> grant is the grant provided <a href="http://archive.lhgeneral.cn/meeting-room/meeting-room-conference-tables">Meeting Room Conference Tables</a> <a href="http://www.best-credit-card-debt-consolidation.com/credit_card_debt_consolidation.html">debt consolidators</a>, it is also a tool for non-profit debt relief. As the fee charged is very nominal, it is fruitful and beneficial.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many people either don&#8217;t have the money <a href="http://bizarre.thefreeclick.info/buffalo-meat/purchasing-elk-bear-or-buffalo-meat">Purchasing Elk Bear Or Buffalo Meat</a> don&#8217;t have any interest in installing an <a href="http://dream.zdgeneral.info/color-printing/24-x-36-inch-color-printing">24 X 36 Inch Color Printing</a> virus or anti spyware program. While <a href="http://daffy.thepointclick.info/lanyard/retainer-case-lanyard">Retainer Case Lanyard</a> feel that that <a href="http://archive.xbgeneral.cn/pickup-trucks/used-s10-pickup-trucks-for-sale">Used S10 Pickup Trucks For Sale</a> a mistake, an online scan can <a href="http://archive.mggeneral.cn/fireplace-screen/candle-fireplace-holder-screen">Candle Fireplace Holder Screen</a> a good alternative. You just have to use the right online scan. Check out the 4 online scans <a href="http://puffy.mysnappy.info/safety-glasses/steelers-safety-glasses">Steelers Safety Glasses</a> recommend.</p>
<p><b>BitDefender</b></p>
<p>BitDefender <a href="http://tame.rockspot.info/cleopatra-costume/how-do-i-make-a-cleopatra-costume">How Do I Make A Cleopatra Costume</a> an amazing online anti virus scan. I found that it is equally effective, if not more so, than the AVG Free I run. My biggest complain about it is it gets plenty of false positives. False positives are when it thinks something is a virus, but it isn&#8217;t <a href="http://deep.qcgeneral.info/saw-groove/performance-saddle-cutout-groove">Performance Saddle Cutout Groove</a> a virus. Your average user probably won&#8217;t see this problem too much, because you won&#8217;t have nearly as much stuff on your computer as I do. Overall, I believe BitDefender is the best online scan out there.</p>
<p><b>HouseCall</b></p>
<p>Another good online virus scan. HouseCall has been around for a long time and a lot of people like it. I believe it is also very good, but I like BitDefender a bit more.</p>
<p><b>Panda</b></p>
<p>I love Panda&#8217;s anti virus. I believe Panda anti virus is the only anti virus truly worth paying for. It&#8217;s an absolute beast. That said, I&#8217;m not as sure about their online scan, mainly because I can&#8217;t try it. It currently isn&#8217;t compatible with Windows Vista, so I&#8217;m out of luck. They plan on <a href="http://archive.jhgeneral.cn/apartments-chicago/hangin-out-chicago-apartments">Hangin Out Chicago Apartments</a> that soon. Still, if it&#8217;s anywhere near as good as their program&#8217;s scan, it&#8217;ll be a very good one to try.</p>
<p><b>Ewido</b></p>
<p>Ewido is the only online spyware scan I can recommend. I found Ewido to actually be MORE effective than the standard programs I was running. Even after running those programs, Ewido <a href="http://tough.theburning.info/bank-foreclosures/cheap-homes-foreclosures-bank-owned-auctions">Cheap Homes Foreclosures Bank Owned Auctions</a> found more stuff, some things as serious as Trojan horses! Definitely run Ewido.</p>
<p>I highly suggest running at least one of the virus scans and Ewido about once every week or two, even if you have programs installed for those jobs. A free second opinion never hurt anyone.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve ever wondered why your computer seems to get slower over time, check out my <a href="http://www.squidoo.com/window-registry-cleaner"><b>website</b></a> for information on how to fix that.</p>

<p>Being able to carry around lots <a href="http://juicy.fbgeneral.info/franklin-dictionary/franklin-new-dictionary-thesaurus">Franklin New Dictionary Thesaurus</a> files in a small device that easily fits your pocket is something fairly new to most of us. Until recently, we used floppy disks or burned information to a CD. But <a href="http://archive.tegeneral.cn/cash-loan/advance-advance-cash-loan-payday">Advance Advance Cash Loan Payday</a> that&#8217;s changed with the advent of neat little USB flash drives that can hold gigabytes of data - ideal <a href="http://fair.udgeneral.info/electrical-engineer/ethicon-electrical-engineer-cincinnati">Ethicon Electrical Engineer Cincinnati</a> the files that <a href="http://world.ybgeneral.info/life-coach/free-life-coach">Free Life Coach</a> need access to <a href="http://tiny.newsnappy.info/sigma-lens/sigma-lens-review">Sigma Lens Review</a> of where you are.</p>
<p>Individual files can easily be password protected. PDFs, Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, Access databases can all have a password set when you save them. This makes them reasonably safe from prying eyes. I say reasonably safe as nothing is completely <a href="http://forum.dfgeneral.cn/kids-beds/kids-full-size-beds">Kids Full Size Beds</a> Sorry.</p>
<p>But what <a href="http://graceful.theeasyclick.info/restaurants/ipswich-restaurants">Ipswich Restaurants</a> you do if you want to protect more of your files than just a few? Or if you&#8217;d prefer the convenience of only typing in one password and then everything it was protecting becomes available?</p>
<p>If you <a href="http://successful.theburning.info/futon/futon-lancaster-pa">Futon Lancaster Pa</a> mind the hassle, there&#8217;s a free program called Cryptania LE. It&#8217;s easy enough to use and free to download but you need to split your USB drive up into 25Mb segments. Nowadays, that&#8217;s pretty small. Just a handful of full resolution photographs from your digital camera, for instance.</p>
<p>Failing that, you will need to find a program that password protects individual folders on your flash drive. These programs are quite inexpensive and quite convenient.</p>
<p>Just remember the password you choose and don&#8217;t keep it anywhere obvious. Which means that scribbles on the USB drive itself and Post-It notes would be bad ideas!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Did you know&#8230;</p>
<p>The Olympic Games ( winter &amp; summer) are organized by <a href="http://bright.dcgeneral.info/folding-chair/sport-double-seat-folding-chair">Sport Double Seat Folding Chair</a> International Olympic Committee (IOC). The headquarters is in Lausanne (Switzerland).The mission of the International Olympic Committee is to promote the Olympic movement in the world.</p>
<p>Singapore -one of the Asia&#8217;s poorest countries in the 1940s- will host the 1st Summer Youth Olympic Games in 2010. It beat a rival bid from the Russian capital city of Moscow. Singapore is one of the smallest countries in the world.</p>
<p>Tuvalu is an Olympic country since 2007.</p>
<p>The IOC has more member states than the United Nations. However,many territories are not members.The following territories are not members of the IOC: Anguilla, Falkland Islands, French Guiana, French Polynesia, Gibraltar, Greenland, Guadeloupe, Macao, Martinique, Montserrat, New Caledonia, Northern Marinas, Turks &amp; Caicos, Northern Cyprus, Faroe Islands, Reunion, Western Sahara, Norfolk and Nieu.</p>

<p>Jacques Rogge is currently president of the International Olympic Committee (IOC). He was born in Belgium. This great Olympic leader once said: &#8220;The challenge of our Olympic Movement is to make the education of youth through sport as relevant today as it was when Pierre de Coubertin founded the International Olympic Committee on this principle over 100 years ago. All of us who work under the Olympic rings have the social responsability to demonstrate by our example that sport teaches us how to respect ourselves and one another, how to strive for excellence in all that we do and, perhaps above all else, the importance of friendship and peace&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p>The German Democratic Republic (or East Germany) was an Olympic country from 1960 to 1988.</p>
<p>The 2014 Winter Olympics will be hosted by Sochi (Russian Federation). The Moscow government has approved an unprecedented US$ 12 billion for the development of the Games.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Overclocking is <a href="http://excited.megasnappy.info/short-wave-radio/solar-short-wave-radio">Solar Short Wave Radio</a> process of increasing the speed of <a href="http://help.qcgeneral.cn/stationery/microsoft-office-stationery-downloads">Microsoft Office Stationery Downloads</a> processor or of a graphics card, or of a system memory in order to achieve maximum performance without sacrificing system stability, or to some <a href="http://fantastic.moretop.info/sundial/sundial-shadow-path">Sundial Shadow Path</a> avoiding possible system damage. <a href="http://round.pickclick.info/ladies-watches/sitemap">Sitemap</a> should be understood that overclocking means additional heat generation for the system. It is a very tedious process which involves cranking up either one of the three components, or all them.</p>
<p>In heat generation, you are not only <a href="http://heavy.rbgeneral.info/home-care/ontario-home-care">Ontario Home Care</a> one component to a change in environment, you are exposing all. When all <a href="http://archive.fdgeneral.cn/coveralls/wall-coveralls">Wall Coveralls</a> components are exposed, there is a great risk that some of those components not adaptive to the change will lose their performance and ultimately be damaged. Knowing how to overclock and which components to overclock is very important.</p>
<p>It is a well <a href="http://puffy.fdgeneral.info/car-cheapest-insurance/car-cheapest-insurance-rate-20">Car Cheapest Insurance Rate 20</a> fact that overclocking is a trial and error job. It is publicly accepted among overclocking enthusiasts that there is no exact similarities among components, say an intel processor, or ati/nvidia graphics cards, or a Kingston memory stick. These products might have come from the same batches but each of them possesses its own unique overclockability.</p>
<p>Prior to overclocking, it is important that you establish a baseline of <a href="http://broad.thesnappy.info/cigar-humidor/custom-cigar-humidor">Custom Cigar Humidor</a> system. By baseline, this would refer to your operating system, your drivers, and certain applications. The baseline would serve as a reference if ever any of your attempts to overclock your processor, graphics card, or system memory would fail. Having a baseline would let you restart your overclocking process without having to start from scratch.</p>
<p>Backing up can be made easy if you utilize your Windows System Tools. One of these tools enables you to back up either your whole system or only certain applications. After having done this step, you would then have a back up of your computer which will serve as your baseline in overclocking. Once you&#8217;re done in establishing a back up of your system or your files, you would then <a href="http://archive.fageneral.cn/mortgage-refinance/average-mortgage-rates-mortgage-refinance-marketing">Average Mortgage Rates Mortgage Refinance Marketing</a> to overclocking. It is advisable that before you start tinkering with your system, it is of your advantage that you read certain literatures in magazines or even online about overclocking. If you wish to overclock your processor, you could search on the different websites that offer explanations and steps on how to accomplish the said task; the same goes with reading the different literature available regarding overclocking your graphics card and system memory.</p>
<p>These literatures provide information about clock limitations of different processors, system memory, and graphic cards. As have been mentioned, it is likely that certain products even of the same batch have their own unique overclockability. If you&#8217;re using stock items their clock limitation would differ from products with customized items. Take for example, if you&#8217;re processor is running with a stock fan and stock heatsink its clock limitation would be lower compared to a processor running with a customized cooling system.</p>
<p>Reading the literatures available on overclocking would also help you on determining the safest graduation or ramping of your system frequency. It is a common <a href="http://help.sbgeneral.cn/medical-malpractice-lawyer/mobile-medical-malpractice-lawyer">Mobile Medical Malpractice Lawyer</a> for first time overclocking enthusiasts to use a higher graduation in tinkering with their system. This has been proven fatal to your computer as you are risking possible damage such as &#8220;frying&#8221; of your processor. It is therefore highly important that you have sufficient background on the process.</p>
<p>If a failure or error occurs during overclocking and you haven&#8217;t backed up your system you would risk starting the process from the very beginning. Whereas if you&#8217;ve established a baseline, or have backed up your system, and see an error in any one of the components, you can start from the baseline and continue overclocking until you&#8217;ve reached your computer&#8217;s optimum performance. If you overclock without backing up, it&#8217;s as if you are tinkering with your system blindly.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Computer security is important and one shouldn&#8217;t take it lightly. Every <a href="http://blog.dhgeneral.cn/commercial-loan/start-commercial-loan-broker-business">Start Commercial Loan Broker Business</a> you go online without taking any security measure, you&#8217;re increasing the risk <a href="http://calm.thehomeclick.info/bladder-control/bladder-control-meds">Bladder Control Meds</a> leaking <a href="http://nutty.kageneral.info/hangers/joy-mangano-clothes-hangers">Joy Mangano Clothes Hangers</a> private information stored in your computer <a href="http://docs.bbgeneral.cn/skylights/sitemap">Sitemap</a> an outsider. In this article, I will explain four basic computer security tips that you should know.</p>
<p><B>1. New Computer</B></p>
<p>When buying a new computer, it is important for you to turn the firewall on. For example, you&#8217;re buying a <a href="http://archive.kcgeneral.cn/portable-generators/diesel-generators-portable">Diesel Generators Portable</a> XP operating system computer, what you need to do is turn on the Windows Firewall first before going online. Even though it cannot protect you completely, but it is good enough to protect your PC before you buy a new firewall.</p>
<p><B>2. Email</B></p>
<p>Attachments in unknown emails are usually a threat. Never open any attachment from an unknown email. Sometimes, the email subject said something about you getting a greeting card and ask you to click the link inside that email. I&#8217;ve opened this type <a href="http://archive.afgeneral.cn/filing-bankruptcy/benefits-of-filing-bankruptcy">Benefits Of Filing Bankruptcy</a> email and was attacked by a trojan horse. Luckily my antivirus aborted the connection.</p>
<p>If the link inside that email is something like an ip address (http://aaa.bbb.x.y/) instead of a domain name, never click it.</p>
<p><B>3. Update Your Virus Definition</B></p>
<p>Installing an antivirus will not be enough. Constant update is needed so you can receive new virus definition. New threats are being created everyday and updating your virus definition on regular basis is crucial to detect newer threats.</p>
<p><B>4. Don&#8217;t Surf Suspicious Sites</B></p>
<p>Opening a porn site or a <a href="http://help.mcgeneral.cn/executive-office/executive-office-chair">Executive Office Chair</a> site will also increase your risk of getting a virus. <a href="http://help.segeneral.cn/cell-phone-deal/what-is-the-best-deal-on-cell-phone-rate-plans">What Is The Best Deal On Cell Phone Rate Plans</a> such as cracks and patches from warez sites will also increase your risk. <a href="http://auspicious.thepointclick.info/soap-dispenser/sitemap">Sitemap</a> it&#8217;s illegal.</p>
<p>Using these tips will decrease the risk of getting your private information stolen by an outsider. However, these tips are not enough to protect your computer as this is only a basic computer security tips. Learn more so you can create a virtual wall around your computer.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>More <a href="http://alive.thehomeclick.info/flannel-sheets/flannel-sheets-macys">Flannel Sheets Macys</a> more <a href="http://blog.edgeneral.cn/telephone-service/telephone-service-murrysville-pa">Telephone Service Murrysville Pa</a> phones users are browsing and searching <a href="http://archive.xdgeneral.cn/audio-receiver/hard-drive-receiver-audio">Hard Drive Receiver Audio</a> Internet on their handsets. The UK, for example, has neared saturation for mobile phones and many handset browsers can now <a href="http://docs.xbgeneral.cn/borrowing/co-borrowing-mortgage">Co Borrowing Mortgage</a> sites designed for viewing on computers. Indeed 20% of UK mobile phone users now use the Internet on their mobile devices (source: 3G.co.uk).</p>
<p>If you design websites for PC viewing the you need to consider how your sites will look and work on mobiles. The bar for mobile specific sites has been raised by some good sites and others need to close their gap. As the mobile Internet has developed savvy users have come to expect higher standards when browsing on their handsets.</p>
<p>These 7 guidelines are based on actual user research conducted with mobile phone users. Users were asked to carry out typical tasks on popular websites using <a href="http://quick.mysnappy.info/t-shirt/patriotic-t-shirt">Patriotic T Shirt</a> mobile phone browser. The issues they encountered were used to produce these guidelines.</p>
<p>1. Meet users&#8217; needs quickly</p>
<p>Mobile and PC users can have different reasons for visiting the same site. Mobile users are more likely to want information to help them at that location or time, such as finding directions or finding out what&#8217;s going on nearby. Also, they might want quick entertainment to pass away a short period of time, like something to read on the bus or while waiting to meet a friend. For your site, predicts users&#8217; needs and fulfil these as quickly as possible. Exceptions to this are items people download to keep on their phones (e.g. buying ringtones).</p>
<p>Yahoo! does this effectively with its new mobile oneSearchTM service. Searching for &#8216;Cinema&#8217; produces a list of cinemas near users&#8217; location showing their address and phone numbers. Clicking the &#8216;Call&#8217; link next to a number opens a call dialogue box on the phone. A further enhancement would to be enable users to click through to a map of a venue.</p>
<p>2. Don&#8217;t repeat the navigation on every page</p>
<p>Usable websites designed for PC&#8217;s usually repeat the navigation on every page. However, screen real estate is precious on a mobile screen and navigation can push content off screen. BAA&#8217;s navigation, for example, takes up the whole screen so users have to <a href="http://everywhere.vdgeneral.info/duct-tape/duct-tape-treatment-for-warts">Duct Tape Treatment For Warts</a> down far on every page to get to the main content.</p>
<p>For your website on a mobile, only display the navigation on the homepage. On other pages only include links back to the homepage and back to the last <a href="http://archive.bhgeneral.cn/college-loans/free-college-loans">Free College Loans</a> point along the path users have taken. Show these links at the top and bottom of the page so they&#8217;re never too far away. BBC Mobile does this effectively with a clickable breadcrumb trail at the top and a list of links at the bottom.</p>
<p>3. Clearly distinguish selected items</p>
<p>Mobile phone users tend to have poor cursor control. This is because moving the pointing device down (with the joystick or direction buttons) simultaneously scrolls the page and highlights links, buttons and form fields. Due to this lack of control it&#8217;s important to clearly feedback to users what item is in focus. This can be done by changing the appearance of an item to make it stand out from everything else. For example, you can change the font and background colour of links and buttons.</p>
<p>For example, O2&#8217;s mobile portal doesn&#8217;t highlight buttons well. It adds a blue border on a lighter blue background that isn&#8217;t noticeable. Users have to move the joystick around to find the cursor. Worse still, Thomson Local only distinguishes form fields by making their border slighter thicker. In contrast, their highlighted links stood out because the font and background colour was changed and contrasted strongly against the page&#8217;s overall white background.</p>
<p>4. Make user input as simple as possible</p>
<p>Allow users to input information by making selections instead entering free text (or at least provide this as an alternative method). Entering text on a mobile phone can be painfully slow and error-prone on the typical 12 button mobile keypad. Mobile users are more likely to make mistakes (due to misspelling or mistyping) or take shortcuts. Sets of well thought out links on quick loading pages can be very usable.</p>
<p>On Thomson Local, for example, it isn&#8217;t possible to browse businesses or locations. Users tend to abbreviate search terms (i.e. business type) which leads to inappropriate search results. The Odeon&#8217;s mobile site allows users to find a cinema by searching or browsing. Users that search <a href="http://help.wageneral.cn/beach-towel/tide-beach-towel-htm">Tide Beach Towel Htm</a> make more mistakes than those that browse, the latter usually finding what they&#8217;re after by only selecting 2 links.</p>
<p>5. Only show essential information</p>
<p>Mobile phone screens are of course tiny and have only a fraction of the <a href="http://friendly.theeasyclick.info/zoom-whitening/tulsa-zoom-tooth-whitening">Tulsa Zoom Tooth Whitening</a> or pixels on most PC monitors. Be sure to identify page requests coming from mobiles and only send down the most essential of information. Otherwise, important content might be pushed down or difficult to find amongst everything else on the page.</p>
<p>Also, most mobile phone users aren&#8217;t on flat rate data packages so the larger the page the more users have to pay. Users become frustrated if they have to pay to download page content they don&#8217;t want.</p>
<p>Header links on the BAA and Thomson Local websites take up lots of screen space and make important information hard to find. &#8216;About BAA&#8217;, &#8216;Help&#8217; and &#8216;Advertise with us&#8217; aren&#8217;t priorities for mobile users.</p>
<p>6. Place basic browsing controls on the page</p>
<p>To save screen space, mobile browsers often don&#8217;t display basic controls such as &#8216;Back&#8217; or they display the web page in full screen mode. As such, always include a &#8216;Back&#8217; button on every page other than the homepage.</p>
<p>Transport for London&#8217;s mobile journey planner places basic controls, such as &#8216;Next page&#8217;, &#8216;Back to results&#8217; and &#8216;New journey&#8217;, at the bottom of each page.</p>
<p>7. Design mobile-friendly page layouts</p>
<p>On your website, make sure you design the page to present content in the right order and render well on mobile screens. <a href="http://clean.morehot.info/gas-scooter/razorback-36cc-gas-powered-scooter">Razorback 36cc Gas Powered Scooter</a> layouts for large landscape PC screens usually don&#8217;t work well on small portrait mobile phone screens. Furthermore, mobile browsers and page transcoders usually vertically stack pages suitable for portrait display.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s often best to have completely different page designs to meet mobile users&#8217; needs. If mobile phone users are a big part of your business then you should consider creating a site just for mobiles. Sites that are designed for mobiles perform significantly better with users than those that aren&#8217;t.</p>
<p>For example, BAA&#8217;s website renders very poorly on a mobile screen. Page sections don&#8217;t appear where intended relative to each other and pages look poorly designed. Single word link text can be wrapped over 4 lines making it difficult to read. Conversely, Transport for London&#8217;s mobile homepage contains simple categorised lists of links. Users find this easy and quick to use.</p>
<p>In a nutshell</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t neglect your current and/or potential users by not designing for mobile phones. Follow these guidelines but don&#8217;t forget to usability test your website on mobile phones. Real usability testing will always capture things that can&#8217;t be covered by general guidelines.</p>
