Google Chrome

There are many different web browser applications that you can use to gain access to the internet. One of the most recently created versions is Google Chrome, which just launched Version 9 that introduces WebGL allowing developers to create hardware-accelerated 3D graphics inside the web browser. Google Chrome also offers other features – the top 10 follow:

  1. One box for everything allowing you to search the web through the search bar directly instead of having to use a search engine.
  2. New tab page  that lets you view your most frequently visited websites
  3. Application shortcuts that appear on your desktop.
  4. Dynamic tabs that you can click and drag to change their order as well as pulling the tab down and opening it in its own window.
  5. Crash control allows you to see how many resources Google Chrome is using and also enables you to close tabs that are “misbehaving.”
  6. Incognito mode that allows you to browse the web without storing a record on your computer.
  7. Secure browsing that warns you of sites containing malware.
  8. Instant bookmarking that allows you to save your favorite websites.
  9. Importing settings and bookmarks is easily performed.
  10. Simple downloads because you can drag and copy them to the desktop after you retrieve them from a pop-up window in the lower left-hand corner of the screen.

See the following link for a tutorial on how to execute these Top Ten features.

IP vs. Analog

When choosing your video surveillance system, you must choose between either IP or analog cameras. The following are reasons why IP is the better choice:

  • IP based systems of 40 cameras have a lower total cost of ownership than analog based systems
  • 32 cameras is the break even point for IP systems versus analog
  • If IP infrastructure is installed the IP system is always lower cost because it utilizes existing wiring
  • Improved images quality and resolution due to pure digital transmission
  • Better maintenance and service
  • Increased flexibility making remote access easier
  • Easier to trouble shoot
