Secure your PC In the near future, you will, perforce, share more

personal information of every kind with that box of yours than with anyone or anything else on the planet. So keep

the lowlifes out with anti-virus and anti-spy ware programs. You don't want to share your account passwords with the rest of the world, do you?

Go Solar Abundant. Free. Nobody can keep the sun out of your life. Use it and avoid big power and fuel bills. Incur the initial costs of setting up solar heating and lighting systems. Your power and fuel savings will cover the installation

costs in three years or so.

Ride, don't Drive Fossil fuels will get dearer and fuel bills bigger. So ride?

bicycle or bus or train? if you can. Renewable energy tech is likely to be deployed on public transport before

personal vehicles. So you can cut your carbon footprint too.

Get a Tech CareerDespite whatever anyone says about IT companies

getting hit by a strong rupee or the sub-prime crisis, it is still one of the best-

paying industries. With 1's and 0's likely to continue ruling your life more

and more, there's no way you can lose.

Stay Connected with NetworkWebsites, phone, email, Internet messaging, SMS, there's no shortage of ways to stay connected. Being on people's

top-of-the-mind recall list opens up opportunities you never thought of. Don't forget it's people who still make

the world go round.

Automate Banking The banks have gone and fixed their end. Time you fixed yours. Most people lose money either because it lies idle

in savings accounts or due to penalties from delayed payments. Creating a sweeper account to deploy idle

balances and automating payments improves the payback.

Talk over the ComputerWith everyone you care to know having a machine at home and an always-on connection to boot, it makes

sense to load a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) software such as Skype that allows you to talk over

Internet lines and keeps your phone bills down, especially the international calls.

Surf, Surf SurfWith the Internet, at any time, someone, somewhere in the world is likely to have a deal going on whatever it is

you want. Don't forget to check the import duties before a buy.

Milk that MobileThere are more uses than talking. Tell your bank and card

issuer to update you on big transactions or alerts on payments due. That way you can keep track of the bits

that add up.

Dump TechMost people pay a lot for tech they'll never use, e.g.

Microsoft Office. Even for unbundled products, people pay more because it is the ?best', though it would be

'outdated' tomorrow. So, know your actual needs before buying a tech product .
