ImgBurn 2.5.7.0

Time to update our burning software and since I have always used CDBurnerXP, thought I might just change things up a bit and check out ImgBurn 2.5.7.0.

Not only does it get a wee bit better review then CDBurnerXP, it has a really simple interface, just like a Denny’s menu.

Easy to use, runs a log as its writing the disc and covers all your burn to disc needs.

Oh, and it’s FREE!

Data Deluge

Came across this article published by MIT. Fascinating!

The amount of data we create, replicate, and store in gadgets and the cloud is growing at a staggering rate. According to IDC, the total “digital universe,” or all the digital information that has been created or replicated, grew to 1.8 zettabytes in 2011 (a zettabyte is a trillion gigabytes) in 500 quadrillion files. IDC says the total size has grown by a factor of nine over the past five years. Handily enough, in August, researchers at IBM unveiled the largest hard drive ever, capable of holding 120 petabytes (a petabyte is a million gigabytes), or about 24 billion five-megabyte mp3 songs.
