Yes that's right, Quer, and not Queer!
Sorry for the bad language, and sorry for not reviewing and posting for sometime now.

Let's have a fresh start this year, and let's start with an interesting website that I stumbled upon (and I do that a lot actually).

There is no specific technical category for Quertime.
It is full of articles that you will for sure find both interesting and useful.

Quertime says it provides useful websites, tools, tips, tools, and freebies.

you can find articles such as "13 Tips to Extend Your Smartphone Battery Life "

or " 9 Online Tools to Create Custom Maps and Get Directions" .

But personally, I find articles that provide lists  as the last one mentioned above, to be what you find most on Quertime.com.

So, I recommend liking their Facebook page, so you can follow them up, I'm sure you'll find lots of interesting technical stuff.

Enjoy, and don't forget to share.

Oh and BTW, like our Facebook page if you didn't yet, and invite your friends to like too.
We too have interesting stuff!

Make Use Of

Love the title?
You might ask: "Make Use of what?".
Well, make use of the technology of course! (this is a technical blog, remember?).


One of the coolest resources on the web!


I came across it when I was looking for gaming resources.


MakeUseOf is more of a resource that contains ways and guides to how to use technology, not how to build it.


For example, the article that I came across on MakeUseOf introduced platforms for building games that I didn't hear of, but I didn't find an article that contains programming or developing tips.


It also contains news, tips, some Geeky fun stuff, and the best part in my opinion, the "Guides".
They have now 50 guides that can be downloaded for free! (download them here: http://www.makeuseof.com/pages/download ).


So check it out ( http://www.makeuseof.com/ ), I'm sure you'll find it's a very useful tech resource for you.


Enjoy it, and share it! (check the buttons below).

The Site Wizard

Remember one the first sites that I reviewed was W3SCHOOLS.COM (check out the following post: http://techfountains.blogspot.com/2009/09/web-building-for-beginners.html )

I called it web building for beginners.

W3SCHOOLS is still is a very good place to start learning how to build websites.

Yet, you might just need more than that.

To explain what I mean check out: http://www.thesitewizard.com/

Here, not only do you start learning how to build a website, you also learn how to choose a domain, register it, find a host, publish your website on a host, and even how to make revenue from your website.

I came across The Site Wizard when I was searching for a tutorial for Dreamweaver (a powerful web design software from Adobe).

They are flooded with tutorials, and as they say, these articles and tutorials that they have are intended  for "people just starting out as webmasters".

So I guess this site is a step up from W3SCHOOLS.

Check it out, and don't get fooled by their old style interface and lack of animation or graphics.

After all, as someone seeking knowledge, it is the content that matters :-)

Useful Google tips and tricks

This was published on the Google fan page on Facebook.
It reminds me with the old "Google Cheat Sheet", where certain words, if mentioned in the search box, can bring you targeted results.
These words were listed in the cheat sheet.
I remember, for example, the inurl word, if you enter inurl:techfountains it will list the websites/pages that have techfountains in their URL. (try it out).


Now through the following link:

http://www.google.com/insidesearch/features.html#unit

which I want to share with you real quick, there are some additional features, tips tricks ...etc. that are listed in a simple, animated way.
Check it out, click around and explore how useful the Google search can get :-)
