I can post to my Evernote account by email with my own private Evernote email address.

With the most recent Evernote update, we get a few more nice features

• I can specify the notebook I want to sent the note to
• I can add tags to the note

Here is an excerpt from Evernote blog

In the subject line of your email, write the title of the note as you want it to appear in your account. In the same subject line, add one or both of the following:

• Use @ for notebooks: Use an @ symbol followed by the name of your destination notebook
• Use # for tags: Use a # symbol followed by the tag or tags you wish to assign. You can have multiple tags just make sure each one starts with an #

For example, Subject: Trip to Florida #travel @expense report

Would create a note titled Trip to Florida in my travel notebook, tagged with expense report.

Notes on this feature

• This functionality only works for existing notebooks and tags
• At this time, you cannot create new notebooks or tags with this feature
• In the subject line, always put the note title first, then add any notebooks or tags
• This feature will not work for notebook names that contain an ‘@’ or a ‘#’, and it will not work for tags that contain a ‘#’ in their name.

Evernote is one of my favorite web applications and it is so great to see that they keep their ears to the user community and keep adding useful enhancements all the time.

I wrote about how to send Google Reader posts to Evernote and there are any more Evernote related posts in the archive if you are interested. Just search for Evernote.

It’s no surprise Evernote is the best Google Notebook alternative since it bit the dust.

• Windows inside Mac OS X
• Windows inside Linux
• Linux inside Windows, etc.

you have to checkout VirtualBox.

I have been a long time Windows and Linux user for a long time and following our love for our iPhones, we just bought our first Apple 21.5" iMac – the all-in-one desktop computer.

And for a few Windows app we have gotten really used to and for my wife to test some of her web development work in Windows browsers we started looking for a virtual machine solution.

It turns out VirtualBox I have used in Linux to run Windows is available for Mac OS X as well!

VirtualBox Features

• Free, Open Source (GPL) and powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization software
• Runs on Windows, Linux, Macintosh and OpenSolaris machines
• Supports Guest operating systems – Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, Windows 7), Linux (2.4 and 2.6), Solaris, OpenSolaris and OpenBSD.
• Modula Design – Control several interfaces at once
• Virtual machine descriptions in XML – easily portable
• Seamless Guest additions for Windows, Linux and Solaris
• Shared Folders – easy data transfer between guest and host operating systems

The full edition of VirtualBox also has a few more features like Virtual USB Controllers, Remote Desktop Protocol and USB over RDP.

Download VirtualBox

So, if you have been wanting to play with a new operating system in your current machine without re-installing your whole machine, using a virtualization software like VirtualBox is the right way to go.

You could also look at other virtualization software like VMWare, BootCamp, Parallels, etc.

As much as RSS readers have and RSS feeds have gained popularity, a vast majority of people don’t want to take the pains of setting up their Google Reader account with the sites they want to follow.

Google Reader has released a cool experimental feature where a new user can browse through popular feeds as a slideshow in an attractive interface without curating their own Google reader account.

Current Google Reader users can use this new feature to browse through their own RSS feeds in a new unique way.

Google Reader Play is Google’s latest attempt at making Google Reader a fun web app to use for new and existing users.

In Google Reader Play, items are presented one at a time, and each item is big and full-screen. After you’ve read an item, just click the next arrow to move to the next one, or click any item on the filmstrip below to fast-forward. Of course, you can click the title or image of any item to go to the original version. And since so much of the good stuff online is visual, we automatically enlarge images and auto-play videos full-screen.

Plus, Reader Play has the smarts to adapt to your taste based on stuff you enjoy by clicking the like button. Kind of a StumbleUpon for RSS feeds. You can also choose categories and stream news from it.

If you already use Google Reader, you are probably familiar with Recommended Items section. Reader Play basically feeds off of the same technology to show you news in a different view.

Even if you don’t have a Google account, you can try out Google Reader Play. Of course, you can save feeds you like, star it, like it, etc., with a Google account.

I found it to be a little slow to load but it could be because Google just rolled it out. But, this could be a fun way of browsing for news just like how Feedly makes for a great Google Reader alternative interface.

Try Google Reader Play

Oh, you could also customize your Google Reader experience with Google Reader Greasemonkey sctipts.

I am still a hardcore Firefox fan but I just have been keeping my Firefox running swift with a select group of must-have Firefox add-ons. So, I took the time to see what new ones have sneaked into my browser and found a common theme – Tabs. So here we go.

• 
  

  BarTab

  Do you keep a dozen tabs open and hate the loading time when you restart your browser? BarTab lets you keep all your tabs open and it loads only when you visit them. This is one of the best Firefox add-ons for tab happy Firefox users. I also use it for productivity by putting my Gmail tab to BarTab so I only check it at pre-assigned times and not any time I have a new mail.

• App Tabs

  Another tab related add-on I really like. You can pin certain tabs that you always use like Gmail, Google Reader, Facebook, etc can be pinned to the left side of the tabs with just the favicons. It is a feature planned for Firefox 4.0 but you can use it as an experimental add-on right now.

• Informational Tab
  This add-on provides thumbnail style preview for each tab, progress meter and indicate unread status.

• Fission

  Fission combines the address bar and progress meter like you would have seen in Safari browser. This really makes for a nice visual effect while the page is loading.

• Coral IE Tab

  An enhanced version of IE Tab which enables you to use the embedded IE engine within tabs of Mozilla Firefox. It supports Adblock Plus in IE, and can sync cookies between IE and Firefox.

Greasemonkey Script of the Week

Blog Signature ID makes it easy to leave comments on blogs by automatically filling in your profile information in the comment fields for you.

Hope you found a couple of add-ons you can use in this week’s picks. Also, sound off in the comments if you would like to see Google Chrome Extension Picks series here. I am considering starting it if there is enough interest.

And, don’t forget to bookmark the extensive Top Firefox Extensions page with neatly categorized uber-popular Firefox add-ons.

I have heard great things about Spotify but  it isn’t yet available in the United States.

I just came across another extremely promising music service – Grooveshark.

Grooveshark gives you a way to begin searching for music, create playlists, upload your own music, change themes and listen to music from a really cool web interface.

You can browse through different bands, artists and songs and play the music. You can do all these without even creating an account. You could upload music and access lot more features with a account though.

You can create Playlists and add songs, artists, albums to the playlists.

Grooveshark also comes with social features. You can email a link to your friends from the queue or even share it in Facebook and Twitter.

The upload feature also works great with access to your uploaded music wherever you have an Internet connection.

Grooveshark is free for the ad-supported version or you can pay to become an ad-free VIP membership for $3/month.

Grooveshark offers music discovery feature where you can vote a song up or down and find related songs. If you really like a song, you can find links to buy the song from iTunes or Amazon right from Grooveshark.

Grooveshark also has some cool feature for bands and musicians with analytics, etc.

Grooveshark is more accessible with a Google Chrome extension, a WordPress plugin and a Facebook app.

If you would like to try out a new online music service, I highly recommend giving Grooveshark a try.

Etacts Features

• Stay in Touch – number of days since contact
• Track email responses
• Conversation Logging
• Mass messaging
• Organize contacts into groups

Etacts also makes it easy with bookmarklets and browser extensions that aid in using this web service.

TVersity is the versatile media server that lets us stream videos, music, pictures, etc from our computer to our TV wirelessly as long as you have a WiFi and streaming enabled device such as Sony Playstation 3, XBox 360, Nintendo Wii, etc.

My PlayStation 3 has doubled in it’s utility and in value (in my mind) just because of this free software!

TVersity Free version has supported streaming YouTube videos to your TV. TVersity Pro version has supported streaming premium content from sites such as Hulu (US only), BBC iPlayer (UK only), Sling, etc.

TVersity Pro version 1.8 has now added support to streaming more premium content such as

• CNN
• Food Network
• HGTV
• Snag Films
• YouTube Movies and Full Episodes

TVersity Free 1.8 also adds support to include YouTube favorites, playlists, YouTube content by search query.

The most important feature with the PRO release is the support for playing any flash video site on your TV via TVersity.

Basically you add the sites you want added to premium content in an xml file (osb.xml). Also, TVersity can now push new premium content to you without a new release of the software. This means you have to add your own content again to the osb.xml file or send the new site to TVersity so they will add it.

Check out this thread to see how you can add new content via osb.xml file.

Also, TVersity 1.8 has added Google Chromium based off-screen web browser for increased stability with premium content.

TVersity Pro costs $39.99 with 1 year of free updates and at 50% off for future updates.

I have come across many tools and recommendation service including Twitter’s own now-extinct recommendation list to find and follow new people.

After being on Twitter for more than 2 years I have the ‘following too many people’ bloat. I follow way too many people and I can’t remember why I follow some of them for the life of me.

Manage Twitter let’s you find Twitter users who aren’t following you back, users who have been inactive and for how long, users who are talkative or quiet, etc.

You can look through inactive users and simply unfollow them all in one shot.

I simply love the simplicity with which I could clean up my Twitter feed. I have been following dead accounts, really really talkative accounts, and people I once found interesting but no longer relevant to my interest now, etc. I was able to unfollow close to a 100 people in under 5 minutes!

All you have to do is connect ManageTwitter to your account using OAuth and then it loads up your account and presents with the screen as shown in the first screenshot. Then it’s easy going from there.

Check out ManageTwitter.com today.

Hardly the time to pimp our Twitter accounts. But, hey now that you have unfollowed some unwanted accounts, here are a few of our interesting ones to consider:

• @KIntheHouse – me
• @TopiPhone – Apple iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad stuff (Top iPhone Resource)
• theCamerani – Digital camera deals, photography stuff (Camerani.com)
• @KarshanMedia – WordPress and web design stuff (KarShanMedia.com)

BuddyPress reached version 1.0 last year but it was friendly only with the multi-use version of WordPress – WordPress MU. Those with single installations of WordPress, like myself, were unable to use BuddyPress with the same ease as WPMU users.

With the release of BuddyPress 1.2, single installations of WordPress can also use BuddyPress now for their forum needs.

We can install BuddyPress as just a plugin from within the WordPress installation. BuddyPress makes it very easy to integrate a forum in an existing WordPress blog.

And you can share your existing WordPress blog user base across your forum too, just like that. If you had tried to integrate user login with forum software like PHPbb or the like you might already know how painful that is.

BuddyPress makes that a breeze. But, there was one catch. BuddyPress comes with it’s own default theme and most WordPress single installation blogs already have their own themes.

The good news is that, Andy Peatling, founder and lead developer of BuddyPress has created a WordPress plugin – BuddyPress Template Pack.

The Template Pack walks you through the theme additions step by step that adds the necessary configuration to your existing WordPress theme in a non-destructive way so you can back out if you don’t like it.

I can’t wait to try out BuddyPress integration shortly in some of our sites. How about you?

But, the TV shows and programs that are being streamed online are from disparate sources and it can be a pain to find the exact place where you can watch a whole season. It definitely is not as easy as flipping a channel in your TV through cable or satellite.

Clicker hopes to make this easy on the Internet.

Clicker is the complete guide to Internet Television. Our mission is to make it simple for you to find the right show, right now.

As massive amounts of programming move online, consumers are entering a world of infinite choices, all on-demand. Great! Finding the show you want to watch? Painful. Thousands of episodes from thousands of shows are housed on thousands of different sites, mixed among billions of random clips and videos.

Clicker catalogs all broadcast programming online, along with TV-quality Web originals, from these silos and delivers them in one seamless, organized experience so you can easily discover what’s available to watch (and what isn’t) online, where to watch it, and what’s worth watching.

Clicker has over 450,000 episodes, 6000 shows from over 1200 networks, tens of thousands of movies and 50,000 music videos from over 20,000 artists.

That is an incredible database to help you easily find the show you want and watch it right mow.

For ex. I went looking for The Office TV show and Clicker showed me that there are 15 free episodes and 108 paid episodes online. It also showed me the sources it is available from – Netflix, NBC, Amazon Video on Demand, TBS, Hulu, etc.

On the side, Clicker also shows Related Shows that I might be interested in helping to discover new content.

Clicker Playlist

One of the features I really liked about Clicker is the the Playlist feature. You can sign up for a free account or sign on with Facebook login. You can add TV shows you want to watch, movies, Music videos you discover through Clicker to your Playlist so you can easily start watching when you are sitting down for some entertainment.

So go ahead and give this free resource and streamline your Internet TV watching experience!

If you like watching these shows on your TV, streaming to PS3 or using a device like Roku Player can be your solution.

Location aware social network updates are so useful in so many contexts. But, announcing where you are at any particular time also comes with a danger.

You are telling the world one place you are not at. Your home.

PleaseRobMe.com is a site that is built with raising an awareness of this danger.

The goal of this website is to raise some awareness on this issue and have people think about how they use services like Foursquare, Brightkite, Google Buzz etc. Because all this site is, is a dressed up Twitter search page. Everybody can get this information.

With sites like FourSquare make it very attractive to ‘colonize’ places you visit, it might be rewarding to become the Mayor of the local coffee shop. But, is it worth the risk of telling anyone who has an eye on your profile that no one is at your home?

This gets worse when your friends want to ‘colonize’ your home which means they have to enter your home address to tell everyone else where they are – your home.

So, next time you use one of these social networks to announce to the world where you are, be aware, that you could actually be screaming – Please rob me!

With this new Google Chrome extension, it appears I am about to stay a lot longer!

Google Facebook Integration Google Chrome extension adds Facebook right below Google Buzz link inside Gmail.

With this Facebook integration inside Gmail, you can see your friends’ Facebook notifications. Also, you can update your status by entering your message and clicking on your picture. (yes, you read that right).

Remember this extension is in alpha stage so it may be a little unstable.

I had to be logged in to Facebook in another tab before the Facebook Connect piece worked and then you have authorize in 3 screens to get this to work.

I did hide Google Buzz inbox messages using this little trick. Thankfully, this extension doesn’t add more Gmail inbox messages.

Before you go looking for a SATA hard drive, look at a great new option that is becoming common place in newer computers – Solid-State Drives aka SSD Drives.

Solid State Drives are more durable than the mechanical SATA hard drives as there are no moving mechanical parts. Hence it is usually more suited to handle rougher conditions and last longer than the traditional hard drives.

Plus, you also get performance gains and power reductions with the SSD drives. Let’s look at a few common advantages with SSD drives.

SSD Drive Advantages

• Faster start-up with no spin-up time
• Fast random access as there is no read/write head
• Consistent read performance
• No degradation in performance due to file fragmentation
• Silent operation with no moving parts
• Ability to endure extreme schock, high altitude, vibration and extremes of temperature

SSD drives have been too costly until recently to be widespread. But, the costs have been coming down and Flash SSDs are now commonplace in smart phones.

Desktops and notebooks are also getting SSD drives in the more recent models. You might remember Apple offered MacBook Air with 64GB SSD option.

So, if you are looking into buying a new computer, you may want to look at one with SSD as an option along with the soon to be popular USB 3.0 support that promises excellent data transfer speeds.

SSD Drive Choices

Here are a few SSD drives that you might consider for either refitting your SATA drives with SSD drives or when you purchase a new computer with space to expand.

• Kingston SSDNow V Series 128 GB SATA 3GB/s 2.5-Inch Solid State Drive with Notebook Upgrade Kit Bundle
• Intel 160 GB X25M Mainstream SATA II Solid State Drive (SSD)
• Kingston SSDNow V Series 128 GB SATA 3 GB/s 2.5- Inch Solid State Drive with Desktop Upgrade Kit Bundle
• Intel X25-M Mainstream 160GB SATA 2.5-Inch MLC Solid State Drive

As with any new technology, SSD drives are a little bit pricier than the traditional SATA drives but the performance benefits are winning over more adopters.

Have you used a SSD device? What are your thoughts on it?

First thing I noticed was that any buzz update was coming to my Gmail inbox.

No, no, no, no. I am trying to do a ‘Inbox Zero’ by archiving all emails and just keep the ones that need an action in my inbox.

Here is how you hide the Buzz updates from cluttering your Gmail inbox.

1. Create a filter
2. Enter “label:buzz” in the “Has the words’ field
3. Check ‘Skip the inbox” (Archive) field
4. Create the filter

Google Buzz updates are automatically labeled as ‘buzz’ so you just need a filter to skip the inbox.

More Buzz Hacks

• If you still don’t have Buzz in your Gmail, you can easily trick your browser to think it’s a mobile browser and access Google Buzz.
  - Install User Agent Switcher Firefox add-on and restart Firefox
  - Go to: Tools –> Default User Agent –> iPhone 3.0
  - Go to: http://google.com/buzz
• Gmail keyboard shortcuts like ‘k’,’j’ works in Google buzz to navigate between messages.
• If you don’t give a rat’s behind for Google Buzz and don’t want to see it in your Gmail, just scroll all the way to the bottom of the page and ‘Turn off Buzz’.

After a day of using it, my take away is that Google Buzz badly needs lists or groups like Facebook and Twitter and the ability to post stuff for certain groups.

Half my family and friends don’t care about the stuff I talk with my social networking peeps and vice versa.

So, how do you like Google Buzz?
