Secure Your Wireless Network

Your personal data is valuable. So it is important that you have a good security system in place. TimbukTech can secure any network from home to business. TimbukTech can help you safeguard important business information from employees and hackers alike. With a secure home wireless system, you can download and stream video faster because you will not have neighbors stealing your bandwidth. Also, by securing your wireless network, you can rest easy knowing that your next door neighbor cannot access personal files on your computer.

TimbukTech’s knowledgeable staff can secure your network making it impossible for others to get in, while still making it easy for you to get access to your network.

Social Network Without Your Nosy Co-workers

Social Networking is a great way to keep up with friends and family, but you may not want to keep up with your irritating co-workers. So how can you social network without being rude and denying co-workers friend request? Use a less heard of social networking site. Here at TimbukTech we understand why some people prefer not to have a Facebook or Twitter account so we have picked three great social networking sites that are less known.

1. Jaiku.com – Jaiku.com is very similar to Facebook. You can keep up with your friends, instant message, and post updates and events. Here at TimbukTech, we recommend this social networking site to those of you who like to keep up with your friends and not your co-workers.

2. Librarything.com – Librarything.com is great for those people who love to read but don’t have time for a book club. Librarything.com allows you to enter discussions about the book you are currently reading. You can ever read other people’s review about a book before you decide to read it! This social networking site is awesome for the book enthusiast.

3. Orkut.com – Orkut.com is powered by Google so users have to have a Google account. However, this site is great. It works similar to Facebook, except you have more control. You can choose what friends see what information and pictures. This will allow you to be friends with your boss and prevent your boss from seeing pictures of you not acting so business appropriate at a party ;).
