How to Send Large Files Via Short URLs ??

Documents hosting is a service currently provided by many online websites. While all those websites facilitate internet users by providing a valuable service, they have certain restrictions which cannot be overcome. For instance, a type of restriction commonly found is the file size i.e. you cannot upload a file beyond a certain file size.

Sayabit, pronounced "SAY A BIT", is a links based file storage service from Sayagle which not only shortens and redirects long URLs but also gives you the ability to upload images, documents and files for sharing via short personalized URLs.

To start storing your documents online, first sign up for an account on Sayabit.

This is done for free and the only information Sayabit requires is: your desired username and password, and an email address to send the confirmation email to.

You can see how effective the tool is. Adding your own reference at the end makes it a lot easier to remember the links. The URL ‘shortener’ also comes as a sidebar or bookmarklet:

You can click on the ‘Upload Files’ button, browse to the folder where the file is store, and select it. No matter how big, it’ll be uploaded by Sayabit! The file formats Sayabit supports are the ones usually used for documents: GIF, JPG, PNG, BMP, DOC, DOCX, PDF, XLS, XLSX, TXT, PPT, and PPTX.

Here are some of Sayabit’s main features:

• 
  
  Upload & store your images, documents, PDFs, Excel files & Powerpoint presentations

Buzz Can Tweet : Sends "Tweets" from "Google Buzz"

Google Buzz may be the "Flop-Show" from the Google Inc., it wouldn’t die out the way their earlier service Google Wave did. People are Buzzing and engaging in conversations.

ClickMeter : A Website To Find the Number of Clicks on Your Links In Real Time.

Website traffic is the only thing site owners are concerned about; if not the only thing, it is at least what they are most concerned about. The whole aim of creating a website is to attract a large internet audience which translates into a heavy traffic. The higher traffic a website receives, the more other companies want to advertise on it. And as most you already know, online advertisements are a site owner’s primary income.

Therefore carefully monitoring the traffic of our site and its activity is essential to a site owner. If you are a site owner, there is a good chance you use a tool like Google Analytics to keep an eye on your site’s traffic. Amongst other things, observing the traffic trends can tell you how the site visitors are reacting to any changes you make on your site.

While Google Analytics is a great tool for basic traffic management, some site owners might want a more extensive and thorough observation of their site’s activity. For that purpose ClickMeter was created which allows users to click-track their website in real time.

ClickMeter is an absolutely free to use website that provides users with a number of click-tracking features. TO start off we must register for a free account. The next steps are easy. Simply add the URL you want tracked, note down its tracking URL which ClickMeter generates, and paste this link around the internet.

As users will click on the link you publish, ClickMeter will record visitor clicks to, from and within the website you added. Tracking features include real-time statistics, unlimited tracking-links, IP address, click-fraud detection, detailed IP analytics, campaigns comparison charts, and finding out which part of the globe users are clicking your link on.

What is NMIndexStoreSvr.exe?

The nmindexstoresvr.exe process is a part of the Nero Scout Utility. Nero Scout is a small utility that is included in all versions of Nero Ultra Edition from version 7 onwards. Nmindexstoresvr.exe is a service that scans your PC for all media files and arranges them in a catalog for easy referencing.

If you believe this service is being a deterrent to your system’s performance, then we recommend you remove this process from your computer.

BootIt : A Tool To Merge Partitions On USB Pen Drive

Few days back, I made my 4 GB USB pen drive bootable (For some purpose). All worked well and the bootable pen drive worked well.

Some days ago when I wanted to transfer some data I formatted the 4GB pen drive in Windows and I was surprised to see that It showed only 941 MB of drive space. I formatted it again and it was still only 941 MB drive.

I opened Disk Management in windows to analyze the disk and came to know that the tool which i used to make my USB pen drive bootable, had partitioned my Pen drive into two parts. One of them was 941 MB of FAT partition which was usable and the remaining 2.7GB was showing as unallocated space.

As I no longer needed that USB drive as bootable, and wanted to recover the 2.7 GB space allocated due to partition, I tried to do a low level formatting of the USB pen drive using some freeware tools. It did not help to recover that Linux partition.

Also the problem with Windows is that It won’t let you create or Merge partitions on a USB pen drive using the Disk Management tool.

I came across this tool called BootIt by Lexar. What is does is that it allows you to set the removable Bit of the drive which will trick Windows into believing that the drive is not a removable drive.

Note: Before following the below method Make sure to backup all your data on pen drive. This process will result in erasing all the data on pen drive.

If you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7, just run the tool with right click and choosing Run As Administrator option.

Now simply select the drive on the tool and click the Flip Removable Bit button. After you press it, the tool will ask you to remove and re-insert the drive. After you re-insert the drive into the USB port, it will be non-formatted all RAW space.

Windows will prompt you to format the drive, just go ahead and format the USB drive and it will reclaim the unallocated space.

How To Show Label Specific Icons Below Post Titles ??

In this Blogger tutorial, you will learn to display icons or any text/image specific for any label/category under the post titles in your blog.

STEP #1:

Log in to Blogger, go to Layout -> Edit HTML and tick the tick-box "Expand Widget Templates"

STEP #2

Find (CTRL+F) this code in the template: <div class='post-header-line-1'/>

and immediately BELOW/AFTER it, paste this code:

<!--LABEL-SPC-ICON-STARTS--><br /> <b:loop values='data:post.labels' var='label'><br /> <b:if cond='data:label.name == &quot;YOUR_LABEL_#1&quot;'><br /> TEXT OR LINK TO IMAGE COMES HERE<br /> </b:if><br /> </b:loop><br /> <!--LABEL-SPC-ICON-STOPS-->

If you want to display the icons for four labels, then use this code:

<b:loop values='data:post.labels' var='label'><br /> <b:if cond='data:label.name == &quot;YOUR_LABEL_#1&quot;'><br /> TEXT OR LINK TO IMAGE COMES HERE<br /> </b:if><br /> <b:if cond='data:label.name == &quot;YOUR_LABEL_#2&quot;'><br /> TEXT OR LINK TO IMAGE COMES HERE<br /> </b:if><br /> <b:if cond='data:label.name == &quot;YOUR_LABEL_#3&quot;'><br /> TEXT OR LINK TO IMAGE COMES HERE<br /> </b:if><br /> <b:if cond='data:label.name == &quot;YOUR_LABEL_#4&quot;'><br /> TEXT OR LINK TO IMAGE COMES HERE<br /> </b:if><br /> </b:loop>

Replace the code in "YOUR_LABEL_#1" etc with the exact names of your labels/categories (including space " " between two words). And replace the text in "TEXT OR LINK TO IMAGE COMES HERE" with the link to the icon you want to use.

For Example: To use the books icon, replace that text "TEXT OR LINK TO IMAGE COMES HERE" with this code: <img src="http://i49.tinypic.com/2elukh4.jpg" alt="Book Reviews"/>

Finally save the template.

Google Buzz : A Social Integration And Messaging Tool By Google

With more and more communication happening online, the social web has exploded as the primary way to share interesting stuff, tell the world what you're up to in real-time and stay more connected to more people. In today's world of status messages, tweets and update streams, it's increasingly tough to sort through it all, much less engage in meaningful conversations.

Google Buzz is a social integration and messaging tool by Google, designed to integrate into the company's web-based email program, Gmail. Shared links and messages show up in the user's inbox. Buzz focuses on integrating photos, videos, and links as part of the "conversations" aspects of Gmail like conversation threading.

Google Buzz is a new way to start conversations about the things you find interesting. It's built right into Gmail, so you don't have to peck out an entirely new set of friends from scratch — it just works. If you think about it, there's always been a big social network underlying Gmail. Buzz brings this network to the surface by automatically setting you up to follow the people you email and chat with the most. It focuses on building an easy-to-use sharing experience that richly integrates photos, videos and links, and makes it easy to share publicly or privately (so you don't have to use different tools to share with different audiences). Plus, Buzz integrates tightly with your existing Gmail inbox, so you're sure to see the stuff that matters most as it happens in real time.

Users will be able to share links and status updates through Buzz. They will also be able to see what their friends are posting to sites such as YouTube, Flickr and Twitter and will be allowed to view most of that content within the same Gmail window. All posts will be updated in real time.

Buzz enables people to directly message someone using the same "@" format as made popular by Twitter. Buzz will also send users posts and links to other content they might be interested in based on what their friends are talking about or the content of their own Buzz feed (users will be able to turn this function off).

Whenever someone comments on one of your posts, Gmail will send you an email with all the comments and images associated with the Buzz you've created.

Google has made mobile a priority for Buzz and has created three ways that users will be able to access the service from a mobile device: through the company's standard Google.com mobile homepage, from a special Buzz application (available for iPhone and Android users only right now) and through Google's Mobile Maps application (only for Nokia Symbian, Windows Mobile and Android users currently).

Warren Buffet : The second richest man in the United States.

Warren Edward Buffett (born August 30, 1930) is an American investor, businessman, and philanthropist. He is one of the most successful investors in history, the primary shareholder and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway.

 

Buffett is called the "Oracle of Omaha" or the "Sage of Omaha" and is noted for his adherence to the value investing philosophy and for his personal frugality despite his immense wealth. Buffett is also a notable philanthropist, having pledged to give away 85 percent of his fortune to the Gates Foundation. He also serves as a member of the board of trustees at Grinnell College.

 

At only six years old, Buffett purchased 6-packs of Coca Cola from his grandfather's grocery store for twenty five cents and resold each of the bottles for a nickel, pocketing a five cent profit. While other children his age were playing hopscotch and jacks, Warren was making money. Five years later, Buffett took his step into the world of high finance. At eleven years old, he purchased three shares of Cities Service Preferred at $38 per share for both himself and his older sister, Doris. Shortly after buying the stock, it fell to just over $27 per share. A frightened but resilient Warren held his shares until they rebounded to $40. He promptly sold them - a mistake he would soon come to regret. Cities Service shot up to $200. The experience taught him one of the basic lessons of investing: patience is a virtue.

  

Here are some very interesting aspects of his life:

1. He bought his first share at Age 11 and he now regrets that he started too late !!

2. He bought a small farm at age 14 with savings from delivering newspapers.

3. He still lives in the same small 3-bedroom house in mid-town Omaha, that he bought after he got married 50 years ago. He says that he has everything he needs in that house. His house does not have a wall or a fence.

4. He drives his own car everywhere and does not have a driver or security people around him.

5. He never travels by Private Jet, although he owns the world's largest private jet company.

6. His company, Berkshire Hathaway, owns 63 companies. He writes only one letter each year to the CEOs of these companies, giving them goals for the year. He never holds meetings or calls them on a regular basis. He has given his CEO's only two rules. Rule Number 1: do not lose any of your share holder's money. Rule number 2: Do not forget rule number 1.

7. He does not socialize with the high society crowd. His past time after he gets home is to make himself some pop corn and watch Television.

8. Bill Gates, the world's richest man met him for the first time only 5 years ago. Bill Gates did not think he had anything in common with Warren Buffet. So he had scheduled his meeting only for half hour. But when Gates met him, the meeting lasted for Ten Hours and Bill Gates became a devotee of Warren Buffet.

9. Warren Buffet does not carry a cell phone, nor has a computer on his desk.

 

Warren Buffett Quotes:

• Beware of geeks bearing formulas.
• If past history was all there was to the game, the richest people would be librarians.

Autorun is widely used by computer virus to infect other computer via removable drives. Windows XP is particularly vulnerable to this kind of transmission due to its behavior of executing autorun.inf file automatically (Vista and 7 do not execute autorun script without user approval).

 

Autorun viruses generally creates viruses autorun.inf files in the root directory of the local drives and removable drives like USB Flash drives etc. Due to the virus autorun.inf, when you double click to open these drives the virus spreads and executes the code inside these autorun files.

In order to protect all drives, click the option which says Create folder named AUTORUN.INF files in each drive in root directory.

 

After selecting the checkbox, click the button to scan all drives now and place the fake AUTORUN.INF folders so that virus files could not be created or copied.

 

Key Features:

• Disabling automatic execution of autorun script upon insertion of removable device.
• Automatic deletion of autorun.inf file from your removable drive upon insertion. This is done to prevent accidental invocation of autorun script by double-clicking drive's icon from Windows Explorer.
