Encryption is the process of transforming information to make it unreadable.<br /><br />USB memory drives can get lost easily. What happens with all the important data you store on them? This can be personal documents or sensitive information. Encryption is essential to enable the contents to be accessible by you alone.<br /><br /><strong>TrueCrypt</strong> is free and can be stored and run on your USB drive. To access TrueCrypt go to www.trucrypt.org By using truecrypt your files will be secure.<br /><br />For further details, please contact me at melanie_berenblut@yahoo.co.ukBerenblut IT Training & Consultancyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05142998745107793869noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4936932108318116930.post-37217367775018418402010-12-13T00:23:00.006+00:002010-12-13T00:40:24.681+00:00HTML ExplainedMy blog today is going to focus on HTML. <strong>HTML</strong> stands for Hypertext Markup Language.<br /><br />HTML is the code used to create websites. This was invented in 1990 by Tim Berners-Lee who was a scientist. The purpose of this was to enable scientists at various universities to gain access to each other's research documents.<br /><br />HTML is a language, which enables information to be presented on the Internet. When you view a web page on the Internet, it your browsers interpretation of HTML. To see HTML code in your browser, Click the View Menu and select Source with your left mouse button.<br /><br />My next blog will focus on some HTML commands.<br /><br />Best wishes<br /><br /><br />MelanieBerenblut IT Training & Consultancyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05142998745107793869noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4936932108318116930.post-65765980663386318372010-12-11T21:56:00.000+00:002010-12-11T22:07:16.424+00:00Berenblut IT Training Website Terminology continued<strong>META TAGS</strong><br /><br />Following on from my previous blog. This blog is going to focus on Meta Tags.<br /><br />I am often asked What Meta Tags are. These are a special HTML(Hypertext Markup Language) tag that provides information about a Web page.<br /><br />Meta Tags <strong> do not </strong>affect how a Web page is displayed. They provide information such as who created the page, how often it is updated, what the page is about, and which keywords represent the page's content. <br /><br />In tomorrow's blog, I will explain some HTML terminology.<br /><br />Best wishes<br /><br /><br />Melanie BerenblutBerenblut IT Training & Consultancyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05142998745107793869noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4936932108318116930.post-39264815314665379692010-12-07T06:40:00.000+00:002010-12-06T22:41:03.747+00:00Just In Time Training SessionsWould you like to learn a new IT Skill to prepare you for the New Year?

As a trainer I am often asked what the terms mean, today I am going to share four definitions with you.
<br />
<br />
<br /><strong>HTML -</strong> Hyper Text Markup Language
<br />
<br />Hyper Text Markup Language is the markup language for <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">webpages</span>. HTML <div></div>consists of tags which are surrounded by angled brackets <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">eg</span> <html> within web page content. The tags usually come in pairs <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">eg</span> italic <i>the first tag is the opening tag, the second tag is the closing tag </i>
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br /><strong><span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error">SEO</span></strong> - Search Engine Optimisation
<br />
<br />Search Engine Optimisation is the process of improving visibility of a website or a web page in search engines.
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br /><strong><span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error">PPC</span></strong> - Pay Per Click
<br />
<br />Pay Per Click is <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-error">internet</span> advertising, advertisers pay the site that is hosting when their <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_6" class="blsp-spelling-error">advertisment</span> is clicked.
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br /><strong><span id="SPELLING_ERROR_7" class="blsp-spelling-error">CPC</span> </strong>- Cost Per Click
<br />
<br />Cost Per Click is the sum paid by an advertiser to search engines for a single click on their advertisement.
<br />
<br />I hope that you have found these definitions helpful. Tomorrow I am going to continue with some further website terminology.
<br />
<br />Best wishes
<br />

It seems to have come around so quickly this month as we moved the September meeting to later in the month due to the tube strike. Fingers crossed that won't be happening again! It's great to have heard from so many new people interested in coming along to try out one of our meetings. We think you'll find us a very friendly and welcoming group, always willing to help and support each other in growing our businesses.
