General Software Discussion / Re: Bookmarks, I am frustrated

kartal: A question to your question as it looks like you have done some research on this.

Do you know if it's possible to have scrapbook save all the content that we 'scrap' online and have it downloaded and synced on another computer automatically? ala Foxmarks for bookmarks.

Living Room / Re: Should I switch from Dreamhost?
« on: February 22, 2009, 12:27 PM »
From my experience, only Hostgator is a close match to DreamHost but DreamHost still wins features-wise.

Tinjaw: I have been using DreamHost since June 2006. Have 50 domains hosted.

For those struggling to make CSS-only designs that work in all major browsers, you might want to use a CSS framework like http://960.gs/

If anyone's interested, I can share links to couple of walk-through practical usage examples of 960 framework.

If you have StrokeIt running, make sure you deactivate it by right clicking on its icon in the system tray when you want to rightclick-drag on desktop to group icons into/create a new fence.

My guess is that they will provide that in a paid pro version.

General Software Discussion / Organize your desktop icons with Stardock Fence
« on: February 13, 2009, 12:44 AM »
This is one of the best programs I have found out in the recent times! :Thmbsup:

http://www.stardock....cts/fences/index.asp

Fences is a one-of-a-kind program, allowing you to draw labeled shaded areas on your desktop, which become movable & resizable containers for your desktop icons. These groups can help bring organization and consistency to your computer's desktop, solving the "constant mess" problem that has plagued the desktop since its inception.

General Software Discussion / Want a way to see what links on a webpage open in new window
« on: January 22, 2009, 09:49 PM »
I am looking for a bookmarklet or greasemonkey script or Firefox add-on that will show/highlight all those links (anchor text, if present for the link) on the current web page that open in new window/tab (i.e., URLs that have target="_blank" or target="_new").

If anyone knows this, please post.

@mouser: Please move this thread to the right forum if need be.

Shoot is also primarily aimed at gamers. But then I wouldn't know. The only computer game I ever played was 'Need for speed'.

Paul: I have modified my first post in this thread and added this: "Below is a screenshot of my blog post. Clicking on it will take you to the above URL from where the video can be watched."

By the way, someone suggested a alternative program at Neowin forum: http://www.pilfius.com.ar/about.php

I am going to try it out later.

General Software Discussion / [How To] Control your computer by voice commands
« on: September 23, 2008, 02:39 AM »
You can control Windows XP computer by using a free program called Shoot. It uses the in-built Microsoft speech technology. I wrote a blog post with a short video where I open browser, search, open and close tabs, switch tabs; run notepad, calculator etc. by issuing voice commands.

For details, visit http://www.howtotuts...computer-with-voice/ :D

Below is a screenshot of my blog post. Clicking on it will take you to the above URL from where the video can be watched.

Is there any other similar free program that works on XP?

Why not install something like a pastebin.com on your web space? It's open source. Here's the direct link to download (has installation instructions inside): http://pastebin.com/pastebin.tar.gz

[How To] Accelerate bookmarking to delicious from Chrome

The delicious add-on for Firefox lets us select some text on a web page and click on a button to add the page to your online bookmarks at delicious.com. The selected text will then be auto populated in the NOTES field of the bookmarking form. We can achieve a similar functionality in Chrome.

I wrote a AutoHotKey script using which you can select text on a web page, press a customizable hotkey and submit the page to delicious with NOTES field pre-filled automatically. All you need to do is enter/select the tags and hit Return to submit the form.

Updated the script to add "Paste and go":

Win+v – Pastes the URL (should have been already copied) in the address bar and hits return key
Win+Alt+v – Opens a new tab, pastes the URL in the address bar and hits return key
