How To Make Free Calls From Hotel When Traveling

MagicJack is a phone jack for your computer that lets you plug in a standard phone and make basically free calls. This is great if you like to travel or are in sales on the road and you have an laptop and wish to make cheap calls from the road.

I would say it works great to get rid of pricey penalties for exceeding mobile phone minutes to expensive hotel telephone charges, calling from the road costs too much. Travelers with laptops and broadband can make Internet calls, but those pay-per-minute rates sure can add up.

MagicJack changes the game with a flat-rate price so low it looks like a misprint: $20 per year - not per month, per year - for unlimited calls to the United States and Canada from anywhere in the world.

This gadget plugs into a USB port. The device has a telephone jack that lets you use a standard phone, including cordless ones - you also use a headphone.

We tested magicJack with a variety of Internet broadband connections and PCs. The quality did not suffer, and the device did not slow down other programs, even on an older, slower PC.

This little gadget will run $20 for the jack, plus $20 a year for service. The phone service comes with a free local phone number, voice mail, call waiting, call forwarding, three-way calling and free (commercial-supported) directory assistance. International calls are extra, though competitively priced: Calls to France, for example, are 2 cents a minute (18 cents a minute for French mobile phones).

Its about time these communication companies got smart and stopped charging by the minute!

How To Boost Your WIFI Reception For Under 25 Cents

Not wishing to pay $50 to $100 for some gadget in the store. I found a pattern for a Parabolic Reflector that I stuck to the antenna on the desktop. Not only did I find it boosted my WIFI signal reception, I came to find 10 more WIFI connections in the neighborhood that I previously did not know existed.

In order to create the WIFI booster you will need tinfoil, stiff stock paper for your printer, a scissors, pattern and some paste. it takes about 10 minutes to make the WIFI booster.

The WIFI booster pattern is right below. Once you have printed the pattern cut out all the parts. Take the parts put ample paste on them and then cover with tinfoil shiny side facing out. Put it all together slip the center part over your antenna and your off to better WIFI reception.

iPhone Like The Features - Dont Want AT&T, Work Around

As we know the iPhone is just filled with all sorts of great goodies. I don't like the idea of being forced to sign a 2 year contract to get a cool phone with all the handy applications I could use everyday.

This work around is not illegal and does not violate Apple or AT&T in anyway. Looking at the picture on the right, you would think that's a picture of Apples iPhone. It's not the iPhone it's the iPod Touch newest version of this gadget.

This new version of the iPod touch includes all the great applications and more of the iPhone. The only feature I can't do on the Touch that I love on the iPhone is text messaging, and that's because the Touch doesn't include a phone.

Let's take a deeper look here into the iPod Touch, The Touch like the iPhone can connect to the Internet via Wi-Fi. Apple added every function that the iPhone has to the iPod Touch except the ability to connect to a Cellular network.

Four of the Touch's five new applications are Mail, Maps, Stocks and those applications only work when connected to the Internet. Also, improvements were made to existing Touch programs to take better advantage of Wi-Fi. For example, with Photos, I can E-mail a picture of my family to my friends in Australia from the Touch as on the iPhone.

One of the coolest features is Maps that now integrates with your contacts. The way this little feature works. You pull up a contact and tap on maps and it will give you step by step directions to travel there. Since the Touch is not GPS a rather interesting technology Called Wi-Fi positioning is used to find your location and then chart out the map.

Who needs to buy a contract anymore from AT&T, when you can now do it all from the iPod Touch.

How To Unclog A Toilet Without A Plunger or Gadget

How To Unclog your Toilet Without a Plunger or that latest little gadget. I know its not a thought we all like to reflect on.

Over the Holidays I had a stopped up toilet and loaned my plunger to a neighbor who now happened to be on vacation. Since the stores were closed I faced a uncomfortable situation.

I did some out of the box thinking and this how I solved my problem.

Take about a ounce of liquid dish soap and pour it in the bowl. Let it sit for about thirty minutes while a boiling a large pot of water. When the water comes to a slight boil pour it in the bowl. You should see some movement, "no pun Intended" then the water should go down if the clog starts to move slowly but not clear just repeat the steps.

Obviously, this will not work for hard objects like a ball, Ipod, Iphone or your Zune.
