How To Extend Your Wifi Range Using A Netopia 2247NWG/3347WG
In this How To I will guide you through increasing the range of your Wi-fi home network so you can have access through your home and garden.
This topic has been covered by various online sources ( heres an excellent guide : http://lifehacker.com/5563196/turn-your-old-router-into-a-range+boosting-wi+fi-repeater) But they all require that you have a router which supports wireless bridging and has DD-Wrt installed. Both routers which I have don't support either of these, so I am going to use an Ethernet bridge with some PoE adapters.
How To Use EzDrummer With Mixcraft
Mixcraft 5 is "a powerful yet easy-to-use multi-track recording studio that enables you to record audio, arrange loops, remix tracks, compose with virtual instruments, score and edit video, and add effects to create stunningly professional compositions."

The use of IT in food traceability and distribution in Ireland Presentation
I have embedded the HD YouTube video of my presentation below :
This proved to be the easyest method to do such, and although I tried slide-share, YouTube supports 16:9 and would have reach to a larger audience. I created the presentation using google docs and then downloaded it to Microsoft PowerPoint in order to convert it to 16:9 aspect ratio. I used a program called Camtasia Studio 6 to record the presentation and also my narration. This was an easy task with this program as it included a PowerPoint plug-in to record presentations.
The use of IT in food distribution and food traceability (in Ireland)

When I was asked to research and write about this topic, I was sceptical of how much involvement IT has in the food sector in Ireland. It is only after I began finding numerous journal articles and webpage’s on the topic that I really became interested in it. Just within Ireland there are many IT technologies currently in development and in use in the food sector, ranging from monitoring fish supplies to identifying cattle. Wikipedia defines a blog as “a type of website, usually maintained by an individual”. A kind of personal journal which you can update and edit with your own opinions. As I am new to the whole blogging thing, that is exactly what I am going to do. What follows is my descriptive view on the technologies which I discovered during my research and my general thoughts on the topic. To try organize this post better, I will try to give my explanation under the “So basically” headings.
