Diplodocs - Read the Manual Before You Buy

I have always advised people to research and read reviews before buying any stuff. Plenty of user reviews are available on the Internet, written in blogs, websites and forums. Read them and know what previous customers and users have to say about the product, what's good and what's bad about it. Know thoroughly what you are going to buy so that you don't end up making the wrong decision.

Apart from reading reviews, another effective way of getting a first hand impression of the product is by reading it's manual. At Diplodocs you will find over a million manuals for thousands of products in 26 different languages. From DVD players to home theatres; from washing machine to air conditioner, you will get manuals for a wide variety of products and appliances.

These manuals are free to download and so you get the chance to read the manual before you actually buy the product. These gives you a great opportunity to do your own research rather than relying upon reviews written by other people. Is an appliance as easy to configure as advertised? Is it easy or far too complicated? Does it have the necessary features you are looking for? How much power does it consume? You will get detailed information and features of the product that often reviewers forget to mention in the manual. All this will help you to make a better buying decision. And if you already own a product but have lost the manual, you know where to find it.

Whenever the computer is lagging or some application is taking too long to respond, we usually fire up task manager and look under the Performance tab or under Processes to check on processor utilization or the amount of free memory available. The task manager is ideal for real-time analysis of CPU and memory utilization. It even displays a short history of CPU utilization in the form of a graph. You get a small time-window, about 30 seconds or so, depending on how large the viewing area is.

How to Schedule Changes to Your Facebook Page Cover Photo

Facebook’s current layout, the so called Timeline, features a prominent, large cover photo that some people are using in a lot of different creative ways. Timeline is also available for Facebook Pages that people can use to promote their website or business or event. Although you can change the cover photo as often as you like, it’s meant to be static – something which you design and leave it for at least a few weeks or months like a redesigned website. However, there are times when you may want to change the cover photo frequently and periodically to match event dates or some special promotion that you are running or plan to run. So, here is how you can do that.
