There are lots of resources and software available for free on the Internet. All of it is intended to entice you to spend money on big brother versions, but if you can make do with what is on offer, you may save yourself lot's of money!
How to send Enormous files by Email.
If you have ever tried sending large files you have probably found your email provider won't allow anything larger than 10Mb through their servers.
There is now a web provider that will allow you to save your file to a secure webpage which is password protected. You then email the link to the person you are sending the file to. They click on the link and download the file to their computer. You can send anything up to 2 gigabytes.

I am a spelling and grammar nut, I have spent years writing Procedure documents and Training manuals and now focus on website content in our business.
Logo Design
When we offer a Logo Design we often find that the client has an idea in their mind of what they want but are not always sure of the exact concept.
Because of this we try to provide them with a selection of logos along the lines of their idea and ask for feedback.
This means the client can firm up the idea and give us some positive or negative feedback so we can continue onwards to achieve something suitable.
Free Backup - Mozy
Free Online Backup of your critical files. Imagine if your PC burnt out tomorrow. Do you have a copy of everything you need? How do you get the information back?
A colleague of mine had his Hard Disk fail in his home PC 6 months ago. When he realised he had lost a lot of his digital family photos he was quite panicked. He took his computer to a specialist disk recovery company and they quoted $1400 to get the photos back. How precious are your photos?
