Use Mozy To Backup Your Data
Mozy is a great FREE tool. When you are in school backing up all your notes, podcasts, and study guides is hugely key. Most of the time I just toss the file into Gmail but that doesnt always work.Mozy has some great plans that allow you to backup your entire computer so you no longer have to worry about losing any data at all.
“The nice thing about Mozy is that they offer a free subscription for anything less than 2GB of storage, so you can try them out and not have to pay anything for it. I knew right away that I would need to backup more than that so I went with the $5/mo. unlimited plan right from the start (I had about 30GB that I needed to backup – lots of photos). Practically speaking, unlimited is actually limited by your connection and the time it takes to complete – so yes, it’s unlimited, but the practical limit really depends on your internet connection’s upload speed.“

Why Should I Consider Grad School?
Grad school is about hope. Hope for a better tommorow. It is about pursuing dreams and reaching for the sky. Grad School will surely push our limits I am sure of that. It allows us to focus on what really is important and that is securing an education to better our future, and the future of our families.
America is about dreams, and attaining them. Grad school is one tool in this process. It is about making choices that really count day in and day out. Choosing a school is really important. It cant hurt that you are young and the rest of your life lies ahead of you.
Make smart decisions and personally grad school isnt for everyone. But it might be for you. Preparation and Perverance are very important.
Do students come to grad school prepared?
This is a seriously great video that every potential grad school student should watch. Personally I would go with an online grad school program and pursue it in the evenings and weekends so I would could be better prepared.
Should you go to grad school right after college?
I really appreciated this video about attending grad school. Timing is important and alot of college students are burned out after 5 years of college. This is a great video on talking about getting some real world experience first.

RSS Feeds and Google Reader
This video is a great help to those who are exploring how to process more information in less time. RSS Feeds are the way to just that on the web.
You might also check out Lifehackers Guide To RSS and Google Reader as well. One of the core technologies behind the Web 2.0 “revolution” is RSS (Really Simple Syndication). Most websites that are updated with any sort of regularity have feeds of at least their headlines, and usually of full articles. Some sites also have secondary feeds listing their comments, videos, links, and other updates as well.
Because RSS is so common these days, keeping up with the rush of information that shapes our lives has become pretty easy (”really simple”, even). Instead of jumping from one site to another, you can keep track of all the content of the sites you visit regularly in one central place.

How long will we live off our parents beef…
A recent Newsweek article asks an important question. How much longer will we live off our parents beef?

Ouch.
