My Review of Symphony Tools for Social Media Management:

I've been using Symphony Tools to manage my social media accounts and I really like it. It's perfect for scheduling and automating sharing my blog to Facebook and twitter. Give it a try.

Microsoft needs to realize that an one fit for all approach Is not going to fit for everyone of course they're are going to be people who like Microsoft Edge and or Internet Explorer and yet there are other people who like other browsers like Chrome or Firefox or even third party lesser known browsers like Cent Browser and Torch Browser.

Microsoft should stop pushing their browsers on people who don't want to use their browsers either they don't fit their browsers or they freeze up a lot.

I for one like the Cortana search feature but with the latest updates the Cortana searches are directed to Bing when most people would rather search Google. Simple fact is Microsoft should not be forcing either their browsers or search engine us.

I've recently came up with another issue i'm having with Windows 10 after the last update to 14.494.105 which is one of my browsers Is now giving me the “awe snap” error and won't even let me do anything on it and also sometimes Windows will automatically uninstall a program that I want on my computer and then when I try to download it again Windows blocks the program.

Windows is becoming too aggressive its just getting ridiculous. Windows 10 is a good operating system but Microsoft needs lighten up a little bit and gives us more freedom to use whatever program we want.


As I said at the start of this article a one fit for all is not going fit for everyone. Everyone likes to personalize their on computers whether it be the default browser, search provider or even programs they like to use on their computer.

For example for me I like to do a lot of research in different languages so I have a browser for each languages and one day I found out one of my browsers was completely uninstalled which I did not uninstall it. Windows uninstalled it by itself, and another browser I have used before is snow giving me the “awe snap” error on both my laptop and desktop computers.

Back in the early stages of Windows 10 we used to be able to add a chrome extension called Bing2Google that would automatically redirect bing searches generated by Cortana to Google but now Windows has prevent extensions like those from working now and whenever you do a Cortana search Edge opens even if you have a different browser set as the default browser for example like Chrome.

I hope Microsoft realize soon rather than later although its their operating system they should not have complete control over it and let people personalize their own computers. They need to give us the freedom to use our computers the way we want to and not have something forced on us that we don't want or like.


This is plain common sense that Microsoft should realize.


Last year I created to several new blogs for entertainment purposes. Uncle Taurus, Tío Tauro, Tío Touro, Zio Toro.

I haven't wrote on them much as a would like to its not the I can't think of something to write about but sometimes I do have stumble on ideas to write about for all my blogs. But the main reason why haven't wrote anything on my those blogs is I can't syndicate them on my page facebook pages Bryan Garcia (Blogger), , Pagina Em Português de Bryan Garcia, Pagina In Italiano di Bryan Garica – Blogger, Págnia En Español De Bryan Garcia – Blogger.


Whenever I try to add a new blog to NetworkedBlogs it directs me to a new site Symphony which now means that they are actually charging for syndication now. Not all bloggers are writing for a living and most if not all are blogging only for a hobby. They can't always pay for things that were once “free”.

I'm currently in the process of looking for new a new syndication site that would allow me to syndicate my new blogs.

I Also have spin-offs of Surfing Through Technology in other languages the main ones are Navegando Al Tecnología, Navegando Na Tecnologia, Navigando Nella Tecnologia. But I haven't really written anything in those blogs either since I can't seem to syndicate them either. I would love to start writing more on these blogs but first in need to find a way to start syndicating them now since NetworkedBlogs move to Symphony and started charging to syndicate. To me a “free trial” is not really a free trial since once the free trial ends either you get charged or your service is canceled

Can anyone suggest any good alternatives to NetworkedBlogs aka Symphony that would allow me to syndicate my blogs to my Facebook pages?

I'd really appreciate





Have you ever found a pic you wanted to you use as a banner aka a cover pic or even your profile pic on one of your social media sites whether it be Facebook, Twitter, YouTube or even Google+ But it tells you that you that the photo is either “too big”, “too small”, “too wide” and it it gives an approximate size or d width of the picture is required.


For example YouTube's size and width requirement for the banner must be at least 2048 pixels wide and 1152 pixels tall. But set the size width or even put in the exact numbers it says. It still tells me the photo is either to “too big”, “too big”, “too small”, “too wide” to be used.



It drive me crazy its not only YouTube is all the social media sites where it be facebook, twitter YouTube or even Google+ and even sometimes Facebook Groups as well.


I'm sure that bugs you as well you really want to use a picture either for the cover pic aka banner or even your default pic but cant because of the size and width restriction.


Recently the main reason why I wrote this article is cause I have created a logo I want to put it as my youtube banner but can't because of the size and width is quite frankly frustrating and irritating that YouTube wont allow me to the banner of my choice on my profile. It should be that simple your profile your choice to what you want to put on it.




All of them have that same type of issue whether it be Faebook, Twitter, YouTube or even Google+ they all need to stop restricting our content and allow us to put our OWN content on our OWN profiles..


Let me know what you think of my logos below





You may be thinking time travel is not possible and we don't have that technology.

Well, yeah time travel might not be possible at this moment in time. But who knows what happens in the future.

Let's look at how technology has advanced in the last hundreds of decades take for example our current technology like our mobile phones did not exact before 1973.

Computers are much smaller and are a lot more power than early computers in the 70s which were hulkier then computers we have today.

The first telecommunication device that allow people to “communicate” with each other from afar was a telegram which was in the 1900s and now take a look at the telecommunication devices we have today from our mobile phones to video chats software like Skype.

Cars are more advanced and powerful then early decades and the first automobile wasn't invented until 1796 which was power by steam. Now we have electric cars which can run on electricity rather than gas and previously before the first car was made people used horse carriages and boats for transportation.

These are a few examples of how technology as advanced in the last hundreds of decades. What people previously said was only “science fiction” have become reality so it is quite possible that in the future we will or might have real time travel capabilities. Who's to know there may already people coming here from the future but we might not even know it.

Let me make a disclaimer I am neutral on the subject of time travel i think there could be a possibility of time travel but i am no expert on this matter. But i'm tired of people saying there is no possible way for time travel to exist. Well, yes in this current time we don't have the technology for time travel but again the last hundred of decades we didn't have the technology for most of the stuff we take for granted today such as our mobile phones and tablets.

And let's not forget about television, television wasn't invented until 1972.

Please before dismissing a future technology, look at the current technology we have today and think about it what it was like before these technologies were invented. Imagine yourself in those decades and could you ever think the type of technologies we have today? I myself am in my mid to late 20s and and I am amazed myself at how technology has rapidly advanced in the past decades from our early cell phones in the early 2000s to the current 2010 decades.

What can we expect from future decades?

Some of you guys might remember in 2001 a guy going by the name John Titor claiming to be time traveler from year 2036 did some postings online forums in 2001. If you think about it we are only two decades from the 2030s now, (well to precise two in a half decades already) since were are already in the middle of the 2010 decade.

Although we currently don't have the technology for time travel, it doesn't mean we won't have it in the future there are people who are actually working on this type of technology already.


What kind of technology would you like to have or see in the future? Leave your thoughts in the comments. 


Recently while googling for different kinds of topics whether it be on my phone or on my PC, a couple of times now i've encounter captchas after inserting the search term or phrase (i.e. blogspot extensions) not sure why Google now does captchas.



It's such an annoyance especially when doing it on the phone you think you're entering one letter but you actually pressed another letter and even on the pc or (mac), you can barely read these captchas sometimes. It's really annoying at most. I know the intentions were good when they first came on scene but they've been coming up more often nowadays.



Like this notice i got from google when i did this search 

 



Well duh Google that's what a search engine is for, right?



I'm getting sick 'n tired of seeing these captchas for really no reason at all. They're dumb, stupid and have no real purpose because even if you put the correct digits in it still says the “code” wasn't right. And in most cases you can't even read the digits in the box because of the fonts only on a few occasions you can get a clear “code” but often than not you only get a clear code after several tries.



 I thought computers were smarter than humans guess they're not smarter at everything after all.



There needs to be a better way to determine if its a robot or a human captchas aren't doing a “good” job with that.


Have you ever gone to a site and seen this or a similar notice?

I admit those surveys can be annoying at times, but sometimes there quite entertaining. For me I'd rather take a survey than having to pay to for complete access to the site.

Right now there's a fine line for website page owners they either have the choice of having a survey (with free access) for the readers or rather charge their readers for complete access. Seems like there's no win-win anymore for page owners anymore. In case people don't realize nothing is “free” anymore. They've got make any somehow and they either have two choices one is to have a survey that still offers free access for readers, they survey provider pays the owner to supply their survey on their site and the owner uses the money to keep the site up and running.

It's not really a big deal to take a simple little survey to have complete free access to a site you love to read. In my opinion is the best out of the two choices.



Remember nothing is free nowadays and even page owners need to make money to keep their site up and running unless they use a blog service like me.


Facebook, Internet 'Kinks' & Other Technology Issues has now become Surfing Through Technology.
 Now with an extended range of topics this blog will take a look at the growing advancement of technology weather it be social media or other types of technology.

 I've been want to extend the topics on this blog for a while now and was having a hard time finding a new name for the blog, but now i have the name for the new blog.

 Let me know what you guys think of the new name Surfing Through Technology.


Originally when i started Facebook, Internet 'Kinks' & Other Technology Issues was only going to be talking about facebook and other social media networks, But the time has come for me to expand the topcis on this blog, don't worry this will still be a blog about technology but i also want to talk about expansion of how technology has rapidly grown in the past decade from the 90s, 2000s, to the current days and other newer technology aspects like mobile phones and other devices like android, and iphones and other topics like so.
To make my blog more appropriate for these kinds of topics and i'm thinking about changing the name of the blog, but unfortunately i can't think of anything names at the moment that will help attractive more readers.
I'm maybe thing of something along the with the words “tech” and “uncle” but not really sure about that or maybe if you could give me some more ideas in the comments section.
Hopefully when people see this article they'll give me some more suggestions on what to rename this blog.
Thank you for reading Facebook, Internet 'Kinks' & Other Technology Issues.


Today I just went on my computer and saw that facebook logged me out, which I don't normally log out myself. So, I knew something had happened, and when I logged back in this what I saw




Dumb stupid facebook, i meet new friends, reconnect with old friends, reconnect with family members who i haven't i seen in a long time. Dumb, Stupid facebook.



Then why do you suggest people "we may know", huh facebook ever think about that, either revive your rules on that or remove the suggestions of people that "we may know". Again Dumb, stupid facebook

Isn't that why facebook started for people to make new friends and connect current and old friends? Please help me to understand why you would suggest people “we may know” and then block us for requesting to be their friends. How would you know who my friends are. Facebook needs either relent on this rule, revive their terms of service or take down the suggestions of people “we may know”.

Since Obama took office facebook has become stricter and stricter on enforcing these rules on certain community of users; conservatives and christians to be precise.

Some of you may remember my previous posts about my struggles with facebook:






This blocked should only last until August 7, but I am tired of being attacked by facebook for no reason but my views and religion.

And, liberals don't go on saying that you're being attacked too I don't buy that for one reason, otherwise i'd see articles written by liberals on the net and there would be outrage that you liberals are being attacked by facebook, but there is no proof at all of liberals being attacked by facebook. I surfed the net and found nothing from liberals about facebook censorship..

Wow, just to to make search I found some articles from liberals about facebook censorship during Obama's first term 2011 and second term 2012.

I googled “facebook liberal censorship” and a couple of articles i'd like to share:



Besides these censorships on liberals, most of the censorship is on conservatives, christians

I googled “facebook conservative censorship” here are a couple of articles i'd like to share:


Is Facebook actively censoring conservative bloggers ???

 Update August 1st, 2013

 Was originally blocked for 7 days from sending requests to people i know. I forgot i was blocked from sending friend requests and i wanted to send someone that i KNEW from high school, but was given a warning that my block would be in effect for 5 more days and 15 more hours for trying send a friend request to someone i knew from school!
