Windows only: Avanquest Connection Manager, previously a $30 app, is now a free utility that could be seriously convenient for laptop users. The app lets you create profiles for your different wi-fi or LAN connections, changing email, printer, and network drive defaults depending on where you hook up, along with security settings and other concerns. The app's basic connection-chooser is also more user-friendly than Windows' own somewhat plain built-in version (though that might be what ...

It looks much nicer and is better readable if a paper form is filled out by using a type writer or computer printer. The person who is working with the filled out paper forms will thank you if you do it that way. I once had to check and process thousands of paper forms that were send by post and fax to my office and it was sometimes horrendous to decipher the handwriting. Nedjosoft Paperform ...

TinyURL is probably the most popular URL shortener out there but they are in for some serious competition from bit.ly - a newcomer that is seriously very good. If you share links in emails or the social web, here are three reasons why bit.ly will win your heart: 1. bit.ly creates a mirror copy of the underlying web page at the time of compressing the URL (see example). That means there won’t be any orphan ...

With this new feature, you can now track your recent sessions and you can also sign yourself out remotely.If you are ...

a clip... "If you are anything like me, you probably sign in to Gmail from multiple computers. I, for example, occasionally sign into my Gmail account from a friend's house when I need to check an important email. Usually I remember to sign out, but every once in a while I wonder if I really did. Now I no longer have to wonder.At the bottom of your inbox, you'll see information about the time of the last activity on your account and whether it's still open in another location:".. ..... Aha! The mystery iFrame BlackBox revealed as a super security tool? I love it!

Windows XP/Vista only: SteadyState, a free Windows utility offered by Microsoft, is a handy tool to have if you've got kids, friends, or just a program or two that could possibly wreak havoc on your system. SteadyState basically creates new user profiles inside a disk section kept at arm's length from your actual system, and can go a step further by locking down access to drives, putting tight restrictions on a user's configuration access, and ...

Ecco un altro tool meraviglioso: gli dai in pasto i discorsi dei politici e lui ti restituisce in forma di tag cloud tutte le parole pronunciate, e più sono scritte grosse, più sono ricorrenti nel testo. Un esperimento niente male.Per cominciare, ho giocato con l’intervento di Fausto Bertinotti "Le ragioni di una sconfitta”, comparso su Repubblica il 12 giugno scorso. Diverse volte ho tentato di leggerlo senza mai superare il quindicesimo rigo.Il risultato di WORDLE ...
