Technology articles are fun to write, but they can also be brain-numbing! In this project, I was tasked to provide shallow and deep links within the short article and use the keyword given. Of course, I had to rise up to the challenge!
Tweaking with the Clone Tool
One of the most intriguing aspects that I have discovered in my Photoshop designs is the clone tool. The clone tool is a gem; however, if you have not perfected wielding it, it can be a source of frustration too. For example, when you click on a sample image patch, the clone tool either duplicates it or simply produces its own patch.
So how do you know the range of the clone tool's capability? It can be tricky, but working with the right layer is the key. Sometimes you may just be clicking on a particular layer and your clone tool catches only those attributes. Another tip is to set the tool on Aligned option to make sure that your first reference point will not be the same throughout the design.

Sygate: Firewall First Runner-Up
According to Information Week (which is also based on user reviews) the second most popular firewall security software being used all over the world is Sygate. It got 27% of the vote, while Zone Alarm got 43% and the rest by lesser percentages. Users rave on Sygate because it is highly functional and user-friendly. Then it is also possible to download it as freeware. Sygate Firewall also has a history of excellent maintenance.
Perhaps one of the best reasons why people choose Sygate is because it is easy enough to configure. Most software are so technical that they tend to turn off the users. With Sygate, it has been a proven fact that understanding customers is the best way to be one of the best firewall software around.
