Families should ensure that they are living in their own havens with maximum security, or free from any intrusions from the outside world. Luckily, a potent solution was brought to us by the advancement of science and technology the driveway security alarms.

Driveway security alarms have been around for years now. They are designed to provide a highly valuable extension to the security system employed by a home. It is named as driveway security alarms simply for the reason they are installed in the driveway, allowing the homeowners to know whenever a person or a vehicle has entered the driveway area. But, how? Simple! The driveway security alarms emit a sound or a chime every time the area is breached.

However, theres a particular limit to how the driveway security alarms work. In the first place, the distance from the driveway and the alarm system counts. So it is often advised for homeowners to know first the distance between the driveway and the chosen site for the alarm receiver in order that they can select and buy a driveway alarm unit that is capable of covering the required range.

With all these features, its no wonder that driveway security alarms will help you make your home as secure and comfortable as possible. If you are thinking about installing them for your own home, then theres no better time to do it than now. The alarm systems can even be set up in different locations, whether hidden from view in the courtyard, beneath the eaves of your roof, or around the border of your home.

Why go to VoIP

Once You Go VoIP, You Never Go Back!

Author: Michael Brito

With the current explosion of VoIP all over the world, it is not surprising that many people in the U.S. are now jumping on the VoIP bandwagon. The technology works by routing voice conversations over the Internet via IP networks. The voice data does not use circuit switch transmission lines of the past, but instead uses packet switched networks that do the same thing, but cheaper and more efficiently.

This amazing technology has many benefits for consumers and businesses today. Take a look at these top benefits and decide if you want to switch to VoIP today!

VoIP Doesn’t Drain the Bank Account

Here is a quick exercise. Take out your current telephone bill and examine each line item. You might find something like this: (1) $19.99 for the basic phone service, (2) $5 for call waiting, (3) $2 for caller id, (4) $10 for voicemail and the list goes on. This total amount doesn’t even consider any long distance charges or applicable taxes either. Once calculated, your phone bill might be between $60 and $75 dollars. That is too much money to pay for phone service.

With VoIP, consumers pay one low monthly fee for phone service. And, the beautiful thing is that all the features are included in the fees; with some features not even being offered by the phone companies like voicemail to email and call forwarding to name a few. Now here is the mind blower: included in the low monthly fee is unlimited calling to the US and Canada! The industry standard for VoIP service is anywhere from $15 to $25 per month; not bad cost saving at all.


VoIP is Portable

One thing most people hate about moving into a new house is not the hard labor of lifting boxes all day long; it’s having to call the phone company to disconnect and reconnect their phone service. It’s a hassle and there are always fees associated. Because VoIP is connected to a high-speed internet connection and not the traditional land line, it becomes almost as portable as a cell phone. Essentially, consumers can take their phone number anywhere they move; and even if it’s just for a weekend getaway.

For example, let's assume that you have to go on a business trip to New York. Simply pack up your phone adapter, (power supply & cables) and your touch tone phone. When you arrive at your hotel in Manhattan, set up your phone adaptor and phone just as you had installed it at home. You can then make and receive telephone calls as if you were sitting down in your living room back home. It’s that easy.

VoIP Lets You Choose Your Phone Number

With VoIP, consumers are no longer tied to their local phone number. What that means is that even if you live in Nebraska, you can have a California phone number. Many consumers take advantage of this feature when they have several friends and family members who live in a different state or city.

Most VoIP providers also offer virtual numbers. A virtual numbers is an inexpensive secondary line that rings to the primary VoIP line. In another example: let's assume that you live in San Francisco where your primary VoIP phone number has a 415 area code. Your mother-in-law lives in Florida and her area code is 561. You can get a virtual phone number with a 561 area code that rings to your primary line in San Francisco. That way, your mother-in-law can call you everyday without having to pay long distance telephone charges. This benefit alone should convince you to switch over to VoIP!

Cost savings, portability and frequent phone calls from your mother-in-law are all reasons why you should make that switch to VoIP. This technology is here to stay and there is no better time to adopt VoIP today and start saving on your phone bill tomorrow. It’s a guarantee that once you go VoIP, you will never go back; to traditional phone service that is.

Wang Bukan Segalanya

Sukalah saya memulakan blog ini dengan sedikit peringatan bagi diri dan pengujung ruang ini. Sesungguhnya kehadiran kita di dunia ini adalah sekadar tetamu. Sementara sifatnya. Kehadiran kita adalah dengan misi atau tugas yang telah ditetapkan. Cuma kita yang manusia ini sering lupa dan tak kurang yang tidak tahu apa kerja yang mereka perlu lakukan di dunia ini. Akibatnya hiduplah mereka seumpama haiwan yang melata. Bangun pagi bersiap untuk mencari makan bagi dirinya atau keluarganya.Dah kenyang pergi mencari hiburan, cari pasangan, sama-sama suka mereka terbang sama (kalau burung). Setelah petang mereka semua akan mencari jalan pulang untuk tidur. Esok pun begitu. Sehingga ajalnya tiba.
Kita tidaklah sama seperti haiwan. Kematian haiwan tidak akan dipersoalkan. Manusia ini akan dibangkitkan semula dan akan dipersoalkan tentan empat perkara. Umur kita yang singkat ini untuk apa kita gunakan. Anggota badan kita kerja apakah yang telah kita usahakan di dunia. Ilmu kita bagaimanakah kita telah gunakan dan harta kita kemanakah telah kita belanjakan.
Wang atau harta kita dari mana didapatkan dan kemana kita belanjakan. Sesungguhnya kekayaan kita yang sebenarnya ada tiga kategori ;Pertama segala makan minum yang telah kita suapkan kedalam mulut kita. Kedua semua pakaian atau peralatan yang telah lusuh kita gunakan. Ketiga adalah Wang atau harta kita yang telah kita sedekahkan. Selainnya bukan kekayaan atau kepunyaan kita. Sebab misal kata kita telah menyimpan RM 1 juta , dan hari ini kita menemui ajal, menghadap illahi .Esok RM 1 juta itu telah kita tinggalkan ,maka jadilah rebutan orang yang masih hidup di dunia. Rumah besar kita akan jadi milik pasangan kita atau waris kita. Tetapi bagaimana kalau sekarang kita sedekahkan wang itu atau harta itu, sudah pasti esok wang dan harta itu masih menjadi kepunyaan kita diakahirat, sebab kita telahpun mati hari ini. Waris kita hanya akan mewarisi apa yang kita telah tinggalkan tapi bukan RM 1 juta itu dan rumah besar itu. Alangkah beruntungnya kita. Pihak lain dapat RM 1 Juta dan rumah besar tapi kita juga memiliki kekayaannya diakhirat.
Itulah yang saya kata wang bukan segalanya tetapi dalam kehidupan yang sementara ini segalanya memerlukan wang.
