Microsoft office live-Microsoft's Web-based office software

A few days ago we featured a site called Google docs which is an online based office tool. Because of goggles success in their web based tool Microsoft followed suit creating a similar service for their Live members called office live.

Office live is almost a replica of Google docs. Office live allows live members to store and share Microsoft office documents on the internet. This is very handy for backing up important data or if you want to accesses it on another computer through the internet. The sharing feature allows you to share a document with other users, you do this by selecting the user yourself. This means that you choose who sees your files and who doesn’t.

Office live consists of two services namely Office Live Workspace and Office Live Small Business In this article we are going to describe to you exactly what the difference between the two services are, we do this so you can decided which one will fit your needs.

We are first going to start with Office live workspace. As mentioned above office live workspace’s main feature is that it allows users to store and share documents online anywhere in the world for free. You can access your office live workspace vie the internet ether using their website or directly from Office Word, Excel and PowerPoint by installing an Office Live Update extension .Although you can view documents online you cannot change or edit them on the site, instead you have to download the document onto your pc and then edit it in the correct office client for example word or excel. With office live workspace you get up to 5 Gigabits of storage, this means you don’t have to carry a flash stick or CDs around with you but instead all you have to do is upload data to the site and then when it needs to be accessed elsewhere all you do is login to your Office live account and download them.

The biggest disadvantage to using office live workspace is the fact that you can’t edit the files online like other online web based office software like Google docs.


Office Live Workspace
Office Live Small Business
Microsoft Office Live Small Business is an Internet-based service that allows users to create a professional looking website without needing any knowledge of design or technical skills.

Office live small business has multiple features for people that are wanting to create and own a website. These features change often and price structure may be implemented at any time. For these reasons we do not go into it thoroughly.

You can access office live from the following link http://www.officelive.com/

In my opinion Google docs is much more better and powerful because you can do everything on the site itself and you don’t have to download extenuations for office and you can edit docs online from anywhere whether you have office installed or not.For these reasons office live ARE NOT on ow best sites online list.

If you would like to find out more about both Office live small business and office live workspace visit the wiki page at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office_Live

Google Docs-Web-based office software that you cant live without.

Have you ever asked yourself what you would do without Google? Well I have, and the answer is nothing, without Google I would do nothing. I use almost every Google application I can get hold of and one of those is a nice little thing called Google docs.

Google Docs is an online word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, and form application Hosted by Google for free. Google Docs allows you to create documents and then edit them on the site. You can also upload Microsoft office documents onto Google docs and you will be able to edit them in Google docs as well as save them. You are then able to access them at any time elsewhere with an internet connection.

A Google doc also has a feature that allows you to collaborate your documents. This means that you can share your docs with your friends or co workers and all parties can edit the document at the same time.

You can access Google docs on your mobile phone and you can send documents vie email. You can also download the documents to your PC so you can open them in Apps like Microsoft office and open office. If I have important Documents that I want to backup I often upload them to Google docs and save them there.

The Google docs interface is almost exactly the same as office is but the fact that you can save data online and access it from both work and home is just awesome.

How IRQ(interrupt requested line)works

An IRQ or interrupt requested line is a Line to your CPU that other devises like mice can if needed interrupt the CPU. In other words if your CPU(the devise that processes everything on your computer)is working on a Task that is not as important as something like moving your mouse, The IRQ will tell your CPU to stop the unimportant task and do the more important one first which in this case is the mouse. The IRQ will then process the more important task and then after that task is complete will go back to the old task that was not as important.

IRQ are always hardware related. There are some IRQ that are preset by the manufacturer. The system timer which uses IRQ0, Keyboard controller which uses IRQ1, floppy controller which uses IRQ6, real-time clock which uses IRQ8 and the Math Co-processor which uses RQ13 all are set by default and cannot be changed. The rest of the IRQ are often set by the PC user themselves, Users change IRQs ether by setting jumpers on the Hardware itself or by using programs installed on the computer.

IRQ2 cascades to IRQ9 and IRQ9 cascades back to IRQ2.In the older XT BIOS there was only 8 IRQ lines but on the newer AT BIOS they added 8 more lines so that there were more IRQ lines available to send IRQ .IRQ2 gets its interrupt requests from IRQ 8-15 and then IRQ2s instructions are redirected to IRQ9.If you set a devise to use IRQ9 then that interrupt request cascades to IRQ2 so actually IRQ9 just sends the Interrupt request to IRQ2 Just like IRQ2 sends its interrupt requests to IRQ9 when it receive the data from IRQ8-15.Just take into account that if IRQ2 is being used.
