Question: How to open a new free Website for our Library? We are having a centralised Technical Library at Nitte Campus In Karnataka

Answer: DO NOT USE ANY FREE WEB SITE. Especially these: www.freewebs.com www.geocities.yahoo.com www.tripod.lycos.com bravehost.net I pay 6.95 a month for my hosting with plenty of bells and whistles. These free ones are highly limited for what you may want to do later when using any scripting languages and/or a database. Plus, they are full of bad code added to your pages by their servers. Some have very obnoxious ads/banners. For a Technical Library, you are going to need a much better server and hosting then any free one can provide you. You can try looking through some of the recommendations at these sites: http://b2evolution.net/web-hosting/top-quality-best-webhosting.php http://www.rankpulse.com/www.siteground.com Ron

Question: What's the deal with Mozzilla Firefox at my public library? They said it was down a month ago. Could the company still be having technical troubles or could it be the library.

Answer: Um Firefox is just fine. I installed a new version 2 weeks ago and just updated it last night. Have you even tried to visit the Website? My guess is the library has a person that installs or fixes the applications on the computers and they havent had anyone able to fix or reinstall the app. Maybe you should talk to a library manager or write a letter to the Library asking them to reinstall Firefox so you can use it. I will give you the actual link to download the latest version and it does work as I tried it. Good luck

Question: Can I create my iTunes library before I actually get my iPod? OK, so I've had bad luck with iPods in the past (not very technical savy) and I'm wondering if I can go ahead and create my iTunes library before I get my iPod (which should be in about a few months). Would it be ok for me to upload some cd's and buy a few songs and then just put them on my iPod when I get it?

Answer: ya it would be easy! it might ask if would you like to add this ipod to your itunes when you first plug the ipod in but then it should be smooth sailing from there on

Question: what does it mean when a library book's status says "recieved"? I always thought that meant that the book is in, but some of the books that I want that say that aren't anywhere to be found. Next to the status by one of the books, it says "technical services." Does that mean that they have the book somewhere else? My library confuses me.

Answer: My library has different status messages from these, so I'm just guessing as to the probable / possible meanings. "Received" could mean that the book has been returned to the library, but that it hasn't yet been put back on the shelves. "Technical services" sounds like the book could be in for repairs or rebinding. Your best bet would be to ask a librarian at your library just what the different statuses mean.

Question: What to do with unneeded textbooks and technical books? Cleaning out the closets I decided to get rid of most of the text and technical books I was keeping around from college.

Answer: You could give them to a secondhand book store, either a normal one or one specifically for textbooks. You can also talk to a librarian to see if they'll take your books. If all else fails, there's always ebay.
