New Nibbo Search Engine Aggregator
Nibbo is a great new search engine aggregator that has some very interesting tools.
The one I like the most is the ability to view the page directly inside the search results.
Nibbo is a new concept of search engine that will collect search results from multiple sources and merge them on a single results page. It’s highly configurable, and it’s even possible to create custom search engines.
Use drag and drop to reorder the search types, and use the small arrow in each type to collapse or uncollapse the previews. The configuration will be remembered in your computer, and it’s possible to share the same configuration among multiple computers by signing in.
It also has a Firefox plugin to make it even more versatile.

External Hard Drives for Business File Storage
Have you ever thought that backing up your data could be easy and affordable.
Over the last few years there has been an incredible increase in the technology of hard drives. I bought a maxtor external hard drive which was 500 gig and nearly $500 3 years ago which has been excellent.
However the price of normal hard drives has come down a lot so wouldn’t it be good if you could use a normal hard drive to do the same thing.
While the external hard drive has been good I have nearly filled it up and was looking at getting another one however it seemed silly to pay so much without any versatility.
Laptop Cadies
The laptop cadies are small, sleek and take little room. As I travel quite a lot it is great to be able to download big chunks of video files to my caddy and access them later when I get home.
Many of the small cadies come with a built in USB connection as seen in the one above. I can add a 500 gig 2.5 inch laptop hard drive for just over $100 and smaller ones even cheaper.
I now have 3 hard drives and can just interchange them any time.
Hard Drive Caddy.
These are also referred to as docking stations.

Today you can buy what they call hard drive cadies. These are docking stations you can plug into your laptop or desktop via a USB port and simply plug in any number of hard drives you like. This is fantastic for back up and storage.
They can use laptop or full size hard drives and many today will accommodate both.
You could have one hard drive for documents, one for graphics and one for video. With the price of hard drives dropping it is now easy to have multiple hard drives full of information leaving your main computer free to do the hard work.

Business Training with Video Tutorials and Woopid
Video tutorial website Woopid is a great place to boost your Microsoft Office mojo, get started with Apple iLife, or uncover the hidden features ofyour Playstation 3.
Can’t find a tutorial on the topic you’re looking for? For a few bucks, they’ll make one for you!
Brandon Kane created most of the site’s several thousand screencasts with Camtasia Studio…and is now hiring freelancers to add tutorials on just about any topic imaginable, using Camtasia Studio or Camtasia for Mac.
“We have many thousands of short, user-friendly, and extremely easy-to-follow instructional videos about technology—ranging from very simple topics to expert-level inquiries—with more being added all the time,” said Brandon.
How short is short? Most videos clock in at around 30 seconds, with the longer ones barely reaching 2 minutes.
Brandon is such a believer in the power of a good screencast, he’s even posted a series of Woopid screencasts showing how to use Woopid!
With all the fun and interesting screencasts on the site, which is the most popular?
Changing Line Spacing (Microsoft Word 2007), with well over 1 million views.
Which just shows that there’s no end to the demand for screencasts on even basic (dare I say mundane) topics.
Brandon is working hard on “Woopid 2.0″ but Techsmith recently caught up with him for an interview.
Read on to get a glimpse behind the scenes at Woopid.com, find out how it all started, and where it’s headed next…
