Microsoft Answers Forum Launched.

Microsoft has launched Microsoft Answers. Till now the only avenue for the average Vista user for support from Microsoft, was to go over to Technet or MSDN Forums for help. All that will now change with the launch of the Microsoft Answers forum! Microsoft Answers will be a no nonsense, non technical forum for real users to get real answers. The site is intended to dramatically improve the self-help experience for Home PC users by enabling the same kind of rich online communities – for support, learning, sharing and engaging with Microsoft – that have long been available for Developers and IT Pros, via MSDN & TechNet.

Love it or hate it, Windows Vista is here to stay as the default operating system for those buying PC laptops on the market today.

There certainly are, and our forum members are working together to collect them all.



A major Thanks goes to forum member flamenko for starting the "Top Vista Tweaks You Can Find". This article is a mere summary of what Flamenko and other forum members have come up with so far as recommendations for greatly improving your Windows Vista Experience, but keep checking the thread in the future as the NotebookReview.com community is working to make it grow.

Brazil hosts web policy forum

More than 2,000 people who oversee the workings of the net around the world are gathering in Brazil.

Policy makers, activists and officials are gathering in Rio de Janeiro for the second Internet Governance Forum.

The UN-backed body aims to give those involved in developing policies for the net a place to air problems and hear about others have succeeded.

Sessions at the four-day forum will debate security, international domains and control of core net functions.

The Internet Governance Forum (IGF) grew out of the World Summit on the Information Society meetings which were held in 2003 and 2005.

The forum is intended to be a debating chamber that, among other things, helps to keep the UN Secretary General up to date with pressing net issues.

The HP Technology Forum & Expo ended today, and just before I had to leave for the airport I was able to get in one last interview.

We talked about the growth of storage markets, and the technologies involved. I also asked David for some insights in regards to the future of storage solutions and technologies.

VoIP too insecure for enterprise: Jerico Forum

A leading member of the Jericho Forum security group has criticised the security of voice over IP technology after researchers revealed that it was possible to eavesdrop on VoIP conversations.



An eavesdropping vulnerability was revealed on the Full Disclosure mailing list on Wednesday in the US. Vulnerability researchers Humberto Abdelnur, Radu State and Olivier Festor claimed the exploit could allow a remote attacker to turn a VoIP phone into an eavesdropping device, citing a Grandstream SIP phone as an example.



The Jericho Forum is an international group of leading corporate security professionals, academics and vendors, and promotes the development of secure software architectures, among other IT security interests...

Format war fanboys shut down AVS Forum

Anyone who's ever visited AVS Forum--probably the largest online forum for audio/visual discussion--knows that people can get carried away. And anyone who has dared to venture in the HD DVD and Blu-ray forum is well aware of rampant fanboy flame wars--the kind that used to be reserved for game consoles.



Well apparently a couple of the AV geeks have gone too far, which has led to AVS Forum moderators to completely shut down the HD DVD and Blu-ray forums until the end of the week. And in case you think it's an overreaction, check out this quote from the letter they posted to AVS members...

Microsoft requesting beta testers for games

Forum user -Alex- gave us a heads up in Neowin Back Page News that Microsoft is requesting beta testers via a somewhat vague e-mail. The e-mail requests that participants fill out a survey, which they will use to pick the best beta testers for the job. Judging from the survey itself, Microsoft could be looking to test out new games on an array of devices, including the PC, Xbox, and even Zunes and mobile phones. No guarantees, of course, but this looks like it'll turn out some interesting results. Click "Read More" for more info and a copy of the e-mail that was sent out.

Nokia app monitors juice

A new application from Forum Nokia allows developers, and anyone else, to see just how much power their phone is using, and compare consumption when running different applications.



The app is free to download from Forum Nokia, the Nokia developer's portal, and runs on S60 3rd-Edition handsets. Our N95 averages out at around half a watt, though we managed to get it up to around three by playing loud music through it. We wanted to see how much would be consumed when playing video, but the N95 didn't have the memory for both applications to be running at the same time.

The five page thread has reports from dozens of forum members, many of them discovering spots which can't be rubbed off on Blu-ray versions of "The Prestige."
