Private browsing
You can browse the web without leaving any trace in your Internet browser. We know the fact that it is nearly impossible to anonymously browse the net, however, Internet browsers like Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer and Google Chrome will allow you go incognito whenever you wish to browse the Internet.
The private browsing mode will reject cookies and will not keep a surfing history in your cached files. So, other users in using the same computer would not notice where you browse the net or where you had been up to on the net.
Well, in my case, I don’t use private browsing. But if you are using the office computer you can use private browsing, but you have to remember that some companies may have installed software in the computer so they can track where their employees have been up to on the web.
Additionally, remember that websites will still be able to collect information about. Malicious software can still track your keystrokes in exchange of free smileys. Surveillance by secret agents can track and of course, people standing behind you.
Consumer tips
Do you access services or shop on the net a lot? Internet is a risky place because more often than not, you do not know whom you are dealing with. In the net, you will be asked to provide your personal information such as name and credit card or bank account number when you are trying to access products and services. Be careful with your social security number, don’t give it when your purchase something on the net. Be wary when you give this information. Take note that the safest payment method is credit card because it is protected under the Federal Fair Credit Billing Act. In the event that anything goes wrong, you have the right to dispute charges and withhold payments. The Federal law confines your liability up to $50 if there are unauthorized charges to your account. And most credit card companies will eradicate the charges fully provided you report the issue right away.
Short vacation
I cannot wait to have a short vacation. One of the places here in the US that I want to go is Nevada, particularly Vegas. It’s not that far from Southern California and it’s cheaper. I have been there twice already. The last time was 2007. Wow, that was 4 years ago. We cannot really go there this year since I just gave birth. Our baby is too tiny to travel this time. Maybe next year or so, we could go there. I want to see the Hoover Dam the next time we go there. I would probably visit the new strip again but I would like to focus more on the beautiful tourist spots in Nevada.
Month of April
Time runs fast. It is the month of April. April is the fourth month of the year in the Gregorian calendar or in our calendar. According to history, April was used to be the second month of the Roman calendar 700 BC. It was before January and February was added. And then, it became the fourth month in 450 BC. The name April is derived from the name Aprilis. The word Aprilis means “to open” – being the season when trees and flowers begin to open.
