We all know that the world of technology is here to stay and is always changing. Computers are becoming a way of life for our home, work and school. Did you know that the technology has grown so much that you can even make video phone calls to people anywhere in the world? This can be done in a few different ways, but my favorite way is by the use of a program called Skype. I tried to make video phone calls in the past and the quality of the video call was very poor. But now with the use of the FV touchcam N1 or FV ExpressCombo and the software Skype, you can make great 720P HD video calls right over your computer. This is done by the use of their embedded hardware H.264 encoding, a chip that takes the 720p video and using high-quality encoding technology, squeezes the video into a stream small enough to be sent over a normal internet connection.

They have a new FV touchcam N1is the first Internet streaming true HD webcam for Skype video calls. It will fit most flat screen monitors, laptops and notebooks. This makes it great for any video phone call anywhere in the world. Now it is available at faceVsion or if you hurry www.shop.facevsion.com is now running a back to school promotion with $10 off any purchase, using the promo code of FVTBTS2 while checkout. The promotion ends 09/30/’10 at the faceVision on line store. The FV touchcam is available through shop.facevsion.com and other value added partners. So you have no excuse not to join in the fun and start having great clear HD video phone calls to all your friends, family or business partners.

A lot of people right now like doing social networking like Facebook, Twitter and many others to keep in touch or stay in contact with their old friends and update the life of our families and friends. Do you like cooking or new recipes? I do like cooking and it is exciting to know new recipes. Did you know that there is a Facebook page where you can find the list of secret menu items on the secret menu tab. I did check this page they have interesting recipes, with an easy menu and look yummy too. This is called ampm menu and too much good stuff. They have Hot Chihuahua, Tower of Torta, Towering Inferno and the Chili Conquistador. I do love the Tower Of Torta, the ingredients is very easy, you just need Beef Torta, Chicken Torta and Pork Torta then start all three torta’s and stack them together. I don’t know if I could wrap my mouth around this, it is too huge and big. I don’t know if I could eat this entire Tower Of Torta but it looks good and delicious. Maybe I can eat this little by little.
I was interested of their easy and quick menu, hope you will take the time to check this too. If you like the menu don’t hesitate or forget to leave a comment of your favorite items and the reason why you like it. They have also New Yums that will come out this date 7/26, 8/9, 8/16 and 8/30. I am curious and I can’t wait what’s new. Also in August 2nd you can create your own ampm secret menu concoctions right on Facebook. I would surely keep checking and keep updated.

Summer is here and that means it is time for outdoor grilling. It also means a break from cooking for me because my husband takes over a few times a week with grilling. He really enjoys grilling things like Johnsonville sausage’s and their all beef Johnsonville brats. I have to admit they are also one of my favorite summer time grilling foods. But remember they can also be prepared inside on the stove or in the oven all year around. That is if you want a taste of summer in the fall or winter.

Update Your GPS System Before Your Summer Vacation

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of NAVTEQ. All opinions are 100% mine.

Vacation season is coming and people are getting anxious to start taking road trips to various places across the country, but before you embark on your journey you should make sure that your GPS system is updated with the latest map information. For people traveling, you want to make sure the newest restaurants, gas stations and other places of business show up in your map, so I encourage you to visit www.MapUpdateMonth.com and make sure you are running the latest map software before beginning any summer vacation journey across the land.
I know that I had an older, more than slightly out of date GPS unit. While trying to drive out of Grand Rapids one day it tried to direct me the wrong way away from the freeway, by using one of the more main routes thru the city area. If I didn’t know the area and didn’t know that the turn my GPS told me to take was wrong, things could have ended up rather badly. It’s an easy mistake to make. I often pass by that corner and see others looking lost and trying to turn the wrong way.
You can go to www.MapUpdateMonth.com and get the latest NAVTEQ maps to make sure you have the most reliable data and information on your GPS device, whether it is an in vehicle GPS system or a portable Garmin GPS device. Below is a list of navigation units that they are offering updates for.
NAVTEQ offers map updates for the following car brands:
- Acura
- Audi
- Chrysler
- Dodge
- Ford
- Honda
- Infinity
- Jeep
- Land Rover
- Lincoln
- Mercedes-Benz
- Mercury
- Nissan
- Volkswagon
- Volvo
You can also find software for your Portable Garmin GPS at:
