Web browser series

Hello people. Happy New year.
I start this year with a helpful thing about web browsers.
First up is Google Chrome:


Google Chrome download
Above is a link to this browser. Believe me you will find it helpful to you and intuitive. Some quick facts i got from the site:
Fast start-up
Google Chrome launches immediately.
Fast loading
Google Chrome loads websites quickly.
Fast search
Search the internet directly from the address bar.
Plus you can addd many more extensions which are very useful, including a Site blocker!!!(For those who want to be productive at work).
So visit the URL, download the browser and tell me what you think.

Mobile Internet in Uganda


With the current Internet speeds, it will soon be possible for you to surf the net very cheaply and at your convinience. Now allow me to take you through some of the current packages which our local telecommunication companies are giving us and how to activate them.

So, starting with MTN.
First of all, to activate the internet you need to have a GPRS enabled phone...(this applies to all phones)
The APN for MTN is "yellopix.mtn.co.ug"
Now if you do not have settings u can send “Yellolive” to 188 and wait for a confirmation sms, save the settings and u'll be able to start surfing.
Next, dial *150# and follow instructions.
1 hour = 20MB(not 60 minutes in a day, but 1 hour e.g from 10a.m-11a.m) at 500/=
I day = 100MB at 5000/=
I week = 350MB at 15,000/=

I will look at the Orange options soon. The above is for your mobile, not the MODEM...more to come later.
