There are plenty of Cloud Services available now but not many of them actually hook all of your services up so you have access to many of them through the same window. Gladinet Cloud Desktop is an emerging software application that does something kind of like that. It’s available in 32 / 64 bit versions, and only works on Windows machines. It seems to be built for a target audience of companies and business professionals, with a starter edition being free but all the others come with a 30 day free trial, then you pay somewhere near $50 a year. By the way, click buy it now and there’s a referral program where they give you $10 for each friend that signs up. They also have a cloud server starting at $5 per month, but I’m just going to stick with checking out the Cloud Desktop application.

Download the version of your choice, and go through the on screen setup. With their Cloud Storage Desktop you can access your cloud storage on a number of different sites (i.e. Box.net, amazon S3, Rackspace, even your own FTP server, etc.). This seems to be really handy for anyone that has Amazon S3 because they have several options for all of the applications. Although, I did notice that a lot of services are not available, like Dropbox and Spideroak, and Google Docs won’t work if you use two factor authentication. When you mount your online storage from another company, you have to enter your username and password which are stored locally. They say on their site the security is in-memory only, SSL Secured and AES 256 bit encrypted. You can also have your cloud folder synced to all of your computers if you want to.

After this super simple setup, you now have access to all of your online storage through Windows Explorer, no need to log into your internet browser or open another program. All you need is some cloud storage somewheres, and Gladinet mounts it as a virtual drive for all your syncing needs. Looks cool! Just wish the more advanced versions didn’t cost so much… I’m such a penny pincher. So all in all, Gladinet looks really cool and it’s SUPER easy. I like it but they have some limits to my needs. They need to join forces with some other companies like my fav- SpiderOak- and add the two factor authentication abilities for Google Docs. What do you think? You can always email us or comment and we’ll be sure to check those out.

This past year was full of surprises, and many of the accomplishments we made are because of you, our viewers! February 15th will mark my first year living in the Bay Area, working fulltime with Hak5. Do I regret the move? Not one bit!

Since our full team has moved here, we’ve been able to spend more time working on the things that matter most. I’ve been able to spend more time developing content and less time figuring out where to record. We’ve created a web store and added several new items this year. We’ve been able to spend more time helping customers and less time doing paperwork.

And it’s all because we have viewers like you! So thank you for being such devoted fans of Hak5 and keeping our show on the net. You’ve been with us through the hard times and the high times, and I have a feeling 2012 will bring tons of great content!

We are already booked for CES 2012 and Shmoocon in Washington DC. We will have a HakShop table at your favorite hacker cons of 2012 and we’ll have plenty of new gadgets in store. We’re always looking for ways to improve the show but keep that home-grown feel from our early days, and your feedback gives us plenty of ideas. So keep it coming!

Here’s to a Happy New Year and plenty to look forward to! Happy 2012, Season’s Greetings, and Merry Christmas!!

I enjoy watching Hak5 and HakTip, as much as the next geek. However, I am also lucky enough to be able to call the Hak crew my close friends. Seeing them make their shows, rather than just watching the end product, is both fun and inspiring. I wanted to share some of that world with you guys.

Look at the top of this page. You see the characters up there in the banner? One of them is Paul Tobias. He shoots and edits the shows. You will see him lurking around occasionally, but you dont get to see how produces Hak5 and HakTip, almost singlehandedly.

I figured that I would point my camera him for a few minutes and try to capture how he does his work.

Pay particular attention to how much he is able to shoot and accomplish, with only a crew of one, and for very little money. Notice the VESA monitor arms used for camera mounts, the iPad teleprompter, and little screens under cameras so that Darren and Shannon can try and take care of their own shot framing.

Enjoy paying attention to the man behind the curtain.
