Learned an interesting Windows Tip today which I read from Lifehacker.com. The tip was about forcing Windows OS to shutdown using the command prompt. On the command prompt, type "shutdown –s –f –t 0" where –s means shutdown, –f means "force," and -t 0 means Now. The command will stop to any running process and shutdown the computer.
Please take note that shutting down your machine this way can lost unsaved work. I only found this tip useful when some application or process hang and wont stop itself properly.
I've been using websites like Mediafire to upload and backup my important files online. These online service are more convenient than email when you need to send large size files (more than 3MB in size). Instead of attaching the file, I usually email the link of the huge file where my recipient can download it from a file hosting website. But although these websites can accept bigger files, they still have size limits (Mediafire upload size limit is 100MB). So if you need more than that, you have to go unlimited using s4ve.as.
s4ve.as is an easy way to quickly share any file with any size, anywhere, with anyone. Never worry about email attachment limits or FTP to quickly send large files to colleagues, friends and family. All you have to do is to click on the select file button to open the file browser and select the attachment you wish to upload. You may only upload 1 file at a time. After the upload process it will automatically generate a Link that shortened using bit.ly.
The link to file is good for 24 hours only. Copy and paste the link anywhere and share it instantly via email, web page, instant message, status update, tweet, etc.
For various reasons, sometimes we don't want selected websites to appear on our browser's history database. Ofcourse you can make use of the Private Browsing functionality but it requires you to switch mode. If you think switching mode is hassle then you can automatically rule-out website from history by using HistoryBlock Firefox add-on. This tool will allow the user to specify a list of hosts to be blocked from the history tab, the recently closed tabs list, and the download manager (ctrl+j).
You can block websites from appearing on the History in two ways. 1. Click the "Options" button under the Add-On tab and add a hostname to be blocked.
2. Simply right-click on a page and hit "Block This!" to automatically add the hostname and/or subdomain of the current page to the blacklist.
Since Blogger.com is a free service, you cannot expect it to be up all the time. So it is a safe practice to backup your blogs now and then. For today's blogger tips, I will introduce you to a very handy utility that can backup and restore your blogger post in few clicks. The Blogger Backup Utility is an open source software to backup existing blogger.com blogs/posts to your local hard drive. It can backup your latest post up to the most earliest blog entry and it save each post as XML file.
On the main screen, you can set the location folder of the backup copy including other options.
While pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL then selecting Lock Computer is pretty easy to secure your Windows session, another better option is to use USB flash drive as a key lock. Your computer screen will go black whenever you removes the USB drive from the CPU and restore your session when you put back the USB key. Using free software like PREDATOR, you can make a USB key in a flash.
PREDATOR locks your PC when you are away, even if your Windows session is still opened. It uses a regular USB flash drive as an access key, and you use the same flash drive to protect several PCs.
It ask for a backup password in case you lost your USB key. On the preferences dialog box, type the password of your choice in the "New Password" field to set your backup password.
You can change preferences or create new USB flash drive key anytime by clicking PREDATOR on Windows System Tray.
