The Youngest IT Administrator At 9, Marko Calasan

Posted: 19 Jan 2010 11:23 PM PST

Marko learnt to read and write at the age of 2 and started working on computers immediately

He achieved his first professional credential at age of 6 . Marko Calasan is a 9yr old from Macedonia and has been dubbed the Mozart of Computers when he passed the Microsoft Certified Systems Administrator exam. He is managing a network of PCs at a nonprofit that works with people with disabilities.

Marko learnt to read and write at the age of 2 and started working on computers immediately. The news of his extraordinary achievement turned him into a local celebrity and he has even had an audience with the Macedonian Prime Minister, Nikola Gruevski, who presented him with an IT lab with 15 computers to practise on. Source: TimesOnline

This video was taken when he was 7 years old and is in Serbian language, but people who don't understand it can easily read between the lines

Marko is speaking to a crowd at Microsoft's Slovenian offices, discussing Active Directory

"The Microsoft officials gave me computer games and DVDs with cartoons when I passed the exams because I am a child. That was nice, but I'm not really interested in those things,"

"I'd like to be a computer scientist when I grow up and create a new operational system." young Marko told The Times.

At school, Marko's favorite subject is maths, and in his spare time he browses internet forums for IT professionals and participates in debates about complex computer engineering problems.

"Marko displayed exceptional learning abilities at a very early age. He was able to replicate a computer operation after only reading about it on the internet. Now we ask him for help when we have some IT related problem at work," Marko's mother, Radica Calasan, 38, told The Times.

Unable to Open Control Panel in Vista? Fix Control Panel in Windows

Posted: 20 Jan 2010 02:03 AM PST


Frequent PC users are dealt with common problems. Some of the problems in Windows platform can't be fixed easily whereas some of them can be solved by mere re-installation of application or by adding the missing .ddl file.

However, when you are unable to open control panel in windows vista or windows xp then chances are some of the registry files have been messed up big time. This could be due to browsing filthy webpages on the internet or spyware that has been unexpectedly downloaded and installed on your computer via the web or portable devices.

Fix Control Panel Unable To Open Problem in Windows

In any of the case, there are certain ways to fix the control panel issue in vista, xp.

The first solution would be to uninstall new application that are unknown to you. When you are unable to open control panel you may be wondering how to uninstall new application?  Make use of freeware uninstaller like CC cleaner or go your "program files" (C:\Program Files) and remove the folder, be careful while doing this and make sure you are removing unknown programs only.

Restart your computer and try to open control Panel. If this doesn't work for you then try messing up with the registry files..

Of course, registry files are the most important segment of the OS. While searching for similar problems, I found out the registry file by Kelly. Download this kelly korner file (click here to save and if you are not able to save it then copy the content and paste it in a text file, name it with .reg extension) and double click on it which will automatically set values and allows you to open control panel in vista and xp system.

You can also try system restoring on your machine. But, always make sure you are having back up of the files in a DVD or portable device. Hope your issues  with control panel are solved now :)

   




Browsing With Flock For A Change

Browsing With Flock For A Change

Posted: 17 Jan 2010 09:06 PM PST

The Social Web Browser

Both Flock and Firefox are powered by the same technology, Mozilla. Flock is very close to the structure of Firefox but, there are somethings that make Flock better, especially for 'Social Media' users. A better provision of user-friendliness and convenience is what Flock serves. I'm not saying that Firefox is not good enough. It's just vintage! Why don't you try something new? It's a same browser with better features.

So you are thinking, what exactly are those features that make Flock better than 'my Firefox'?

Highlights (Considering Firefox 3 and Flock 2):

  • Flock and Firefox both have larger memory footprints than earlier versions, but memory management has improved greatly. The good news is that Flock and Firefox do a much better 'house-keeping' job managing memory over time. This means that Flock will consume the most memory only on it's first run. On subsequent start-ups, Flock will require a relatively flat amount of memory, rather than increasing its consumption over time. This also means that less memory will be consumed when multiple tabs are open and when extensions are installed. Flock has a number of powerful features built on top of the Firefox architecture that allow you to have a truly unique browsing experience. These features come with a price, and that price is a slightly larger memory footprint. Comparing Flock to Firefox with no extensions installed is like comparing apples with oranges. In order to enjoy any advanced functionality in Firefox you need to install extensions, unlike Flock which has lots of advanced features built right in. Firefox extensions will increase both the memory footprint, and the risk of memory leaks over time. That said, all of the memory improvements in Firefox (including many memory leak fixes and much better memory management 'housekeeping' practices) apply to Flock , so you should experience notably improved browsing performance with Flock than you've experienced in prior versions,
  • Flock quickly integrates with each Firefox security update,
  • With my personal experience, i found Flock more stable than Firefox,

  • The first thing you'll notice is the blue Flock Star within the Media Bar instead of Flock 1's grey star. Clicking this star will favorite the current stream and turn it orange, just like when favoriting a web page. Clicking an orange star in the Media Bar will, for the first time, provide a collection of options for this favorite media stream. The first is an option to delete said stream, as many people found it difficult to delete a favorite media stream in Flock 1. This dialog will also offer options to rename the favorite media stream and to place it in a folder (folders being yet another new feature). These combine to allow a brand new level of organization for favorite media streams, saving even more of your valuable time, Data Source: Flock
  • Flock helps you stay connected on social media websites through 'People' sidebar.

Have you tried it yet? Do it if haven't, because it's not a crime to try something new, isn't it? You have the right to share your opinions in the comment section, so please add a comment!
