What Can You Do If Your Email Account Is Wiped?

Not so long ago many Gmail users went to check their mail only to find that their entire inbox and all their contact had been completely deleted. This shocking discovery was something done by Google by accident and only affected a very small percentage of its total users but made many people think about what would happen if all their emails were suddenly wiped forever. With approximately 300 billion emails being sent every day around the world, and as you are probably an email user yourself, you can imagine the carnage this could cause.

This article will attempt to offer some solutions as to what you can do if this happens to you.

Check who you are signed in as

If you are using one of the many popular online email providers like Gmail, Hotmail and Yahoo mail etc. it is possible that you have signed in as someone else. When you sign in you will notice that you can tick a box which says something like 'remember me' which means that every time this computer comes to this mail homepage it will automatically sign you in under whichever password that was used when that box was ticked. If you check the user name you are signed in you may find that your sudden terror need only last for a couple of seconds before you switch back to your account.

Advantages Of Buying Original Ink Cartridges

Since there is a need to cut on costs because of these turbulent financial times, there are a few ways consumers refill ink cartridges. These are through ink refilling kits that are a do-it-yourself projects that consumers can do on their own, through purchasing compatible ink cartridges that are made by third party manufacturers compatible to particular brands like Canon ink or Lexmark ink cartridges and re-manufactured printer cartridges which are recycled cartridges refilled with ink.

Surely, these are far cheaper than buying an original cartridge not because original equipment is overpriced but because they have a few disadvantages to using them. For one they are not manufactured with the same quality control and manufacturing process an original cartridge goes through. Since the quality will not be the same, think of the number of times you will have to print not only wasting ink but paper and time as well. You cannot be assured a hundred percent that the less than original cartridge will actually work once it gets to you. Imagine purchasing ten cartridges off the internet because of a really cheap sale but only five functions when it gets to you. Yes, you can send them back for an exchange but think of the time wasted. Be wary of cartridges sold at an unbelievably low price because these are cartridges that were drilled so they can be filled with ink. Many of these are half-filled or sometimes less, plus the fact that if something goes wrong with your printer because you are not using an originally manufactured ink cartridge, you cannot expect the manufacturers to honour your warranty.
