I also like the sync feature. \u00a0When I move from my desktop system to my notebook system, my files and apps are all there in the cloud. Well, to the extent that I allow it. You can modify these settings and tailor them to your own personal needs.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m still a little fuzzy about allowing my banking and financial data to be recorded and save up on the cloud. \u00a0Even if it is secure, I prefer to do my books locally. \u00a0(BTW, if you&#8217;re looking ofr a great financial app, give KMyMoney a look. \u00a0It does everyitng Quicken does, plus it&#8217;s free!)<\/p>\n<p>Anhow, in looking through some of\u00a0the\u00a0Chrome apps avaible, I stumbled upon a really fun and informative offering. it&#8217;s called the wikiHow Survival Kit.<\/p>\n<p>wikiHow Survival Kit is fun, entertaining, and informative.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll learn some pretty useful stuff like how to make a disaster plan for your family and how to make a pool area safe for kids and pets. \u00a0You&#8217;ll \u00a0also pick up some not so\u00a0obvious\u00a0information like how to open a door with a credit card or how to escape from a\u00a0bear.<\/p>\n<p>And since Thanksgiving is right around the corner, wikHow will even instruct you in how to prepare a turkey. \u00a0From <a title=\"How to roast a turkey\" href=\"http:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/Roast-a-Turkey\" target=\"_blank\">roasting<\/a> to <a title=\"How to deep fry a turkey\" href=\"http:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/Deep-Fry-a-Turkey\" target=\"_blank\">deep frying<\/a>, wikiHow has all the information!.<\/p>\n<p>Simply download the <a title=\"Google Chrome\" href=\"http:\/\/www.google.com\/chrome\" target=\"_blank\">Chrome browser from Google.<\/a> Once installed, then launch the Chrome store and search for &#8220;wikiHow.&#8221; \u00a0It insalls in one click.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"PCLinuxOS\" href=\"http:\/\/www.pclinuxos.com\" target=\"_blank\">Linux<\/a> users can install the open source \u00a0version of Chrome called <a title=\"Google Chromium\" href=\"http:\/\/www.chromium.org\/Home\" target=\"_blank\">Chromium<\/a>. \u00a0This is the version I use.
