Computers 101 – Software! Last week we went over Computer Buying 101. And why do you buy a computer? To run computer software! Call them software, programs, applications, or even apps, they’re the reason you’d own one of these electronic gizmos. Without them? They’re just paper-weights. Did you miss hour one? Click here!

Government Emails – So how’d that happen? Today was a Computers 101 show, but we did have to go a little bit into the Wikileaks and Clinton email bit.

DDOS – Part 2 While its undeniably cool to have so much connected to the internet, there’s a downside to it: security. Most internet enabled devices don’t have adequate security built in! Which means they’re easy targets for the bad guys. This weekend we talked about the weaponized Internet of Things in this weekend’s Distributed Denial of Service attack. Did you miss hour one?

DDOS – Part 1 Was the internet a bit sluggish for you this weekend? There’s a reason for that! In proving once again that there’s some people with nothing better to do, a Distributed Denial of Service attack was launched against part of the internet’s infrastructure. Dyn, a DNS company, found itself under attack from internet enabled cameras, DVRs, and other Internet of Things devices. Its a little surreal when you think about it.

Consequences of a Splody-Phone Speaking of things going up in flames: Samsung’s Galaxy Note 7 is not only recalled, but production has also stopped entirely, its on “no fly” lists, and really, there’s no good reason to have one now.

And even if it goes through, it might still cost them a billion or so. Who is that relevant to? Well, us as consumers. But, more than that? Business owners looking ahead at the future. What you don’t pay attention to today might ruin your tomorrow! Ready for hour two? Click here!
