Check out the announcement from Google today. It is all of a sudden a lot cheaper for storage! 1 TeraByte for a year now only costs $120! Wow!! Check it out and let us know in the comments what you use to backup your data…

 

We’ve lowered the price of our monthly storage plans to $1.99 for 100GB (previously $4.99), $9.99 for 1TB (previously $49.99), and $99.99 for 10TB, with even more storage available if you need it. How big is a terabyte anyway? Well, that’s enough storage for you to take a selfie twice a day for the next 200 years and still have room left over for… shall we say… less important things. Like before, storage continues to work across Drive, Gmail and Google+ Photos. And, of course, the 15GB plan remains free.

You can sign up for one of these new Google Drive storage plans at www.google.com/settings/storage. If you already pay for storage, you’ll automatically move to a better plan at no additional cost. You can visit the storage purchase page to make a change or review your account, and see the Help Center for more information on these simpler storage options.

Sir you have a virus – Telemarketers and how do they know i have a virus?

If you get a phone call, an email or a pop-up talking about your computer being infected it is most likely a ploy. Don’t fall for it, don’t download free tools to clean or optimize your machine. These are almost always trojans or another way for unwanted people to get access to your computer. The best way to deal with these people is to have fun… That is as long as you are protected! Behind a firewall and running up-to-date antivirus software?

Then you are cleared to begin…
Caller: Hello sir this is Ameal calling from the internets

Me:  Hi Ameal, wow nice to talk to someone from the internet

Caller: This is a serious matter. Your computer has a virus and is sending out your personal information

Me: I like unicorns

Caller: We need to talk about the removal process. We can help you….

Me: Can you talk in a woman’s voice and neh like a horse?

Caller: Sir, I dont think you are taking this seriously

Me: I dont think you are taking me seriously. I used this time to access your computer and now I see that you have a virus

Caller: Uhhh (hangs up)

Morale of the story – Enjoy telemarketers! Play the fool, try to sell them stuff and have fun! Post your results in the comments :)
