Watch TV on YouTube.

well, it seems that youtube has a new service called Youtube tv. The service is only available for the Nintendo wii and PS3. When you visit it on your computer, you’re redirected to the normal homepage.

It is no longer necessary to own Apple TV or TiVo digital video recorder or VUDU box to watch YouTube clips on TV. YouTube is joining MySpace, Yahoo and others in bringing the web based features to the TV screen.

you can't visit this with a normal browser, but there is a trick that lets you visit it anyway =)

1. Install User Agent Switcher 0.6.11 for FireFox
2. Set Mozilla/5.0 (PLAYSTATION 3; 2.00) and Opera/9.23 (Nintendo Wii; U; ; 1038-58; Wii Internet Channel/1.0; en)
3. Go to http://www.youtube.com/tv
4. Press F11 (FireFox full screen)
5. Connect your PC to the TV

watch these videos to see how to connect your pc to the tv.

Colored Highlighter Pens for Marking Web Pages in Firefox

Wired Marker is like a collection of highlighter pens for marking web pages inside Firefox.

You can use Wired Marker to highlight text, images or any other portion of a web page and the information get saved locally along with the URL of the page.

Here are a few reasons why Wired Marker scores over most other scrapbook extensions:

a. When you highlight a page, the exact position of that text is also recorded so the next time you open that page, Wired Marker will automatically highlight the same portions again.

b. If a page includes several blocks of highlighted text, you can still easily navigate through the pages using a color coded vertical scroll bar as shown above.

c. If you aren’t too happy with the default markers, there’s an option to create your own custom pens.

Wired Marker - The extension is developed in Japan as part of a government sponsored project. Give it a try.

Go Back & Forward When Editing Lengthy Documents in Microsoft Word

This tip will come very handy if you are editing a document inside Microsoft Word that spans more than a couple of pages.

Say you are writing something on Page 9 of a Word document and then scroll down to some place on Page 16. Now if you were to go back to the previous location on Page 9, just press Shift + F5.

Microsoft Word remembers the last location of your cursor on the document just like the Back and Forward arrows in a web browser. And to go back to Page 16, press Shift+F5 again. Source: MS newsletter.

How to Hide a USB Flash Drive inside a Torn USB Cable

Are you looking for an unsuspecting place in your home where you can comfortably hide the USB Flash drive that stores all your secret data?

Here’s a simple method that may ring a bell - it uses a torn USB cable for camouflage. Most would pass it as a good-for-nothing cable though internally, it acts as a perfect safe-house for your USB stick.

All you need is a USB drive, some adhesive, a sharp knife and an old USB "A-B" cable (that will house the drive). Then jump to Windell Oskay for detailed instructions.

Edit Any Web Page in your Browser Just Like a Wiki

Imagine if you could open websites like Techmeme or New York Times in write-mode and change text or images at will as if you were editing some open wiki.

Well that’s quite possible through Edit Current Website - a bookmarklet that helps you change content of any web page live inside the browser - no need to install extensions like Firebug or learning HTML.

Edit current website - Drag this link to your bookmarks toolbar

The moment you press the Edit Website button from the bookmarks toolbar, the web page you are currently reading turns into an editable document - you can then edit text, move around images on the page or even remove them completely.

Though the edits are temporary and disappear the moment your reload that page, the feature is handy if you are printing web pages or even for making fake screenshots.

Making A file of the size you want

How to make a file of the size you want ?
Let us assume you want to make a file of size 10000kb
Convert it to bytes -> 10000*1024 which comes out to be 10240000 bytes

Open calculator (win key+r -> type in calc )
Choose view mode to be Scientific one
Type in 10240000 and convert it to hex it comes out to be 9C4000
Convert this value to 8 digits by padding zeroes to its left -> so finally it comes out be 009C4000

Open Command Prompt (win key + r -> type in cmd )
Type DEBUG filename.dat
it'll show file not found error ,ignore it
Type RCX -> Enter -> then last four hexadecimal numbers i.e. 4000 ->Enter
Type RBX -> Enter -> then first four hexadecimal numbers i.e. 009C->Enter
Type W ->Enter
Type Q ->Enter

W stands for write and Q for quit

Now check the file you just made by dir command ->dir filename.dat

Using the same technique you can make files as big as you want

Here is an image to show how exactly everything can be done

Add "copy to" and "move to" options in right click (XP)

It is hard to move or copy a file/s or folder/s to specific location. There is a option called "Send to" on context menu but it has some limitation. You can send content through it just few locations like.. My Documents, Floppy Disk etc. If You can add "Copy to" and "Move to" options on Right click(context menu) then it will increase your file/folder transfer facility. You can Copy and Move your content anywhere on your machine through Right click(context menu). I have described a registry trick following here.

Copy-paste following text in notepad and save it with .reg extension. Then just merge/run it. You will get 2 new options on your Right click(context menu).

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

Rapidshare Happy Hours Detector

Rapidshare is the best file sharing and hosting service on the Internet.

but there is on problem with rapidshare and a really annoying thing and that is its ticket-based download system and the inability to download files using a download manager. The recent addition of “Cat” capthas is what annoys free Rapidshare users more and more.

so here is the tool:

what I have for you is a tool called Rapidshare Happy Hours Detector originally shared by SizzledCore.

This application automatically notifies you when Rapidshare Happy Hours are enabled. In Happy Hours, you can download as a premium user (no captchas, no ticket system) and you can even use download managers. Rapidshare usually enables Happy Hours when it realizes that it has enough spare bandwidth.

The application requires Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 and can be download from Here.

so try it now and download your files quickly. :)

Download BitTorrent files without a torrent client !

BitTorrent is a peer-to-peer file sharing (P2P) communications protocol.
BitTorrent is a method of distributing large amounts of data widely without the original distributor incurring the entire costs of hardware, hosting, and bandwidth resources.


so everybody downloads torrents via programs like utorrent or bitcomet.
and sometime it take quite some time before it's ready ( if you have a slow computer)
but there's a new experiment on the web "Bitlet".

If you wanna download a torrent just give web site BitLet the URL of the .torrent file and it downloads the file using its web-based BitTorrent client.

Beyond that, BitLet is pretty simple: just paste the address of the .torrent file, click Download torrent, and select the directory you want to save the file to. If all works well, your download will begin. BitLet is certainly not a replacement for a full-fledged desktop BitTorrent client like uTorrent , but it does provide a simple way to download something via BitTorrent without installing any new software (assuming you've got the latest Java VM browser plugin installed).

Error Message: "Task Manager has been disabled by your administrator"

When you try to open Task Manager, the following error may occur:
Task Manager has been disabled by your administrator
Resolution
This error is caused if the DisableTaskMgr restriction is enabled. To enable Task Manager, try one of these methods:
IMPORTANT: If this restriction was enabled in your system without you doing anything or without your knowledge, then it's highly likely that a Virus has blocked the usage of Task Manager in your system by enabling the DisableTaskMgr policy via the registry. I strongly suggest that you perform a thorough checkup of your system immediately. Steps listed in the Resolution section of this article helps you unblock the Task Manager, but that does not remove the Virus (if any) from your system.
Method 1
Click Start, Run and type this command exactly as given below: (better - Copy and paste)

REG add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DisableTaskMgr /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

Method 3
Click Start, Run and type Regedit.exe
Navigate to the following branch:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies\ System
In the right-pane, delete the value named DisableTaskMgr
Close Regedit.exe
Method 4: Using Group Policy Editor - for Windows XP Professional
Click Start, Run, type gpedit.msc and click OK.
