Wireless has taken a huge leap in usage thanks to a huge improvement in its usability over the years. That's good for many portable devices such as laptops, smart phones, etc. But for people using desktops, a wireless adapter may not be included. Or, you may want to have a more stable wireless connection than the one you currently have. Bridging an internet connection refers to making connections between different ports that will be used by your computer, such as ethernet and wireless. Shown in this article are simple steps that you can use to create your own bridged connection.Note: This tutorial applies to the MS Windows environment. These steps should only be used in context with a Windows 7 machine, as they are not guaranteed to to work on previous versions, or on machines running another OS such as iOS, or Linux.

China, Photography, Innovation And Us

China, Photography, Innovation And Us

A few days ago Jaron Schneider posted an interesting piece over at F stoppers projecting a pretty poor future for the American lighting industry. It's a very interesting read and I encourage you to head over and check it out.

I am not going to repeat the entire post here, but his main point is that the industry has cut costs by moving manufacturing over to China. After moving manufacturing, the industry then moved the engineering overseas. In the end of this process, China no longer needs American brands to produce good lighting gear, and American lighting companies have found themselves fighting their own creations. Jaron ends the post with the sad prediction that ?there is no way out of this cycle of depression for most US companies."

Speaking as a small manufacturer , I think that while the points that Jaron raises are valid, they are only a small part of a bigger picture that?s not completely without hope. Here are some of the more encouraging points that come to mind.
