I have created an easy to read Subnet Mask Network Reference Chart to memorize. This chart will help you calculate subnet mask networks and hosts easier in your head. Example: You can calculate every time you want to Create a new network, or you can refer to this chart to get the same results. This can be a big help when taking the Network+ Test, so memorize this chart and when you take the test, just write it out on paper for reference.
I received a tweet from Mads Maddest writer Dick DeBartolo Owner of Mad Magazine, and he shows off the ARDrone which is a Bluetooth enabled Free Flight drone that seems to be available in September 2010. I have to say that I'm fascinated with the way that the drones move around, so watch the videos below to see what I'm talking about. Enjoy. Here is the Official Website to Research more information http://ardrone.parrot.com/parrot-ar-drone/en
The OSI (Open System Interconnection) Model is a Network Reference Model developed by the International Organization of Standardization to define the basic Standards for All network communication. I have read about it, seen it in action and have taken some time to understand its function because it is imperative to know and understand in the Networking Field. I have gathered some information from different sources and have come up with a simple image of the OSI Network Model for quick reference for anyone to use.

I've used Comcast Internet and TV for over 10 years, and I've been mostly satisfied with their services. Now recently, I read this article on the internet about how Comcast and NBC are in the process of a huge Merger, and it expressed concern about how this will lead to Less competition and Higher costs to the consumers. History will show that one Large company and limited competition will cost the consumer more, and we get less. Anyway, I'm going to vote Against the Merger of Comcast and NBC to keep growth in competition and lower costs for the consumer. Anyone using Comcast may want to speak out about this.
Now that we have been studying internet protocols, browsers and HTML creation lately, I figured that we can change it up a bit. It seems to me that a nice Header Logo is a good way to inspire a website and its design. Lets each create a Header Logo for a site you may have in mind, if not just make something new up. Your website is going to need a logo eventually so its worth giving it a try from scratch for sure. Remember that this can be a valuable asset if you get good at basic graphics design, very useful and fun to do. If you have questions or answers, just post them here.
Hey I put together this website of mine to get re-familiarized with basic html tags and code, it brings me back. I did Not use CSS with this website, just pure HTML coding. I created the Header Logo from scratch, The Footer Logo from scratch to make it unique to me, The Galaga Arcade game box on the front Home page are from an image I cropped. The Top Menu Navigation is simple but effective. The Galaga Java game page is a Java Object Embed code but Its not working right now, so Ill see whats wrong with that. I wanted to show it off as it is so far, so you can tell me what you all think. I also have it hosting on my own server in my Lab here. Feel Free to post your own website creation here. My website url is http://pctechie.redirectme.net/battlestar...
