TenClips – Free clipboard manager software
Posted on September 7, 2009 at 5:18 am
One of the most important features in Windows is the clipboard. I pretty much copy and paste text, images, folders, and files everyday on my computer. What can really make you a lot more productive is a clipboard manager/utility.
Previously, I wrote about ClipX, a free tool to create multiple clipboards in Windows and Ditto Windows Clipboard Extenstion, which lets you copy multiple items to a clipboard.
Another clipboard program that I used and liked is TenClips. TenClips is a super lightweight program for multiple clipboards in Windows.

Sync Google calendar with iPhone using CalDAV
Posted on September 6, 2009 at 5:52 am
Since I’ve gotten my iPhone, I have tried to sync up as many services as possible with the iPhone’s built in email, calendar and contact apps. If you’re in a corporate environment, you’ve probably already setup an email account using the Exchange option on the iPhone.
Unfortunately, you can only add one Microsoft Exchange account to your iPhone, so if you want to sync your Outlook calendar and Google calendar, you have to use CalDAV instead of Google Sync (which uses Exchange).

Free network scanning and monitoring with Axence Net Tools Pro
Posted on September 5, 2009 at 5:16 am
One aspect of computer network management, which can be challenging to some, is allocation and tracking of IP addresses. There are a variety of methodologies on how to keep track of them, be it a simple spreadsheet log or a monitoring tool, which constantly tracks distribution and use. While opinions vary on how to best use IP addresses, either dynamic or static, or a mixture of both, each node on a network will ultimately require one type or the other.

Lately we have shown you how to search for content inside a protected website like Rapidshare. Using a special syntax is a way to tell Google that you want to restrict your searches to certain elements or characteristics of Web pages. To see the complete list of syntax rules, visit this page: www.google.com/help/operators.html
There are some keywords that you can use to limit searches. For example, if you want to search for pages where the <TITLE> meta-tag contains your desired keyword, use the “Intitle” keyword followed by the search string.

Since the release of the Office 2010’s technical preview 2 months ago, I have been using it for quite a while. PowerPoint is one of those Office programs that I wasn’t really able to replace with an alternative software. It just keeps on evolving and always has something new to offer in every release.
Let me start by comparing the main menu from the 2007 version. The 2010 Ribbon interface has a separate menu for Transitions:

VLC 1.0 media player has arrived
Posted on September 2, 2009 at 5:36 am
VLC has just came out from beta to its first major version. Codenamed Goldeneye, version 1.0 is much worth checking out than the earlier beta versions.
The new release has more features like more responsive controls, frame-by-frame playback, on-the-fly recording for all media, and support for a wider range of codecs, decoders, encoders, and demuxers. I was also able to play Real (rmvb) format using this player!
Another cool feature of VLC is its capability to stream media. This means you can create your own http service from your own computer and share the URL to others.
