I have been a long standing user of LogMeIn. Their remote administration and remote control products have really made my technology life much easier. Unfortunately, all great things come to an end. LogMeIn has made some important changes to their service that will leave me searching for a new service.

It is no secret that I liked the Asustor AS-608T. The NAS is a work of art; it looks great and performs well. However, as someone that uses my NAS for bother personal and business needs, I have been looking for the 3rd party app development to kick it into high gear. Well, my wish has been granted.

If you are frequently making changes to your WordPress blog, you have have become tired of having to go through a bunch of menus to delete an out of date or irrelevant post. With a simple edit to your functions.php file, you can add a “Move to Trash” button to your WordPress Admin bar for simple deletes.

A lot is behind a name. Sometimes the meaning of a name makes for most of its beauty. For example, “Thecus” comes from the Latin for “storage”. For its future line of products, a new system will take place in naming the NAS that will hit the market. And just to make sure everyone is on the same page, here …
