ImageShack Uploader For Desktop

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 16:40:00 +0000

One of the most popular image upload site imageshack, has finally released its desktop upload software which many people were waiting for it. It is pretty practical and simple for ones who upload image files very often. Especially uploading many files at the same time makes this software more attractive.

Let's have a look...

#1 If you have an account at the site, you can log in and so you can manage your uploaded files beforetime.

#2 The best part of the software I can say. Supports drag and drop feature. Just decide what to upload and drag-drop them at that area.

#3 If you want you can change the size options.

#4 You can set up the privacy. It is up to you either your uploaded files can be seen by everybody or not.

#5 We can add tags also to the images or videos. If you want to add same tags for many files, just hold ctrl button and click on the files.

#6 The all files will be tagged by what you write there.

#7 Just click and upload starts.

When the process is finished, the screen at the below is appeared.

Familiar to imageshack users I think ;) Clicking on the button near the links, copies the link at the clipboard, so you can use easily. However, you must copy the right link for your purpose. If you don't know, try trial-and-error :)

You can download this useful software here. Unfortunately there is no mac version now.

tvcountdown.com broadcast dates of all tv series

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 13 Jul 2009 10:43:00 +0000

Many of us experience difficulties at finding release dates of tv shows. From now on, it won't be a problem :)

I've been using this site for a couple of months and I think it is time to present. Firstly, you can enter site from here. When you first enter the site, it might be a little ( or very much :p ) complicated to you. Because there is often a huge list of dates. But don't panic :) If you go below the page, you can select your favourite shows and list becomes more tidy.

The best thing of the site is time I think. It shows dates according to your location not just for USA. Pretty helpful for non-US residents.

Hope that helps ;)

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 12 Jul 2009 11:03:00 +0000

You wanna connect to the Internet via your wireless supported mobile, however can't find any network without password-protect. Don't worry then, FreeAir will help you ;)

FreeAir is an application which scans the area for open network connections, and when it finds, informs you with an sound alert.

You can change the alert sound by changing a file located at C:\FreeAir\Alert.wav

FreeAir is a pretty useful wi-fi tool. On the other hand, scanning wireless connections all the time can rapidly decrease you mobile's charge. Actually, the software has a solution for that, too. You can change the search-interval time. If you decide a very long period, the charge will be okay, but the chance finding a network will surely decrease. It is up to you to find right time interval :)

The software works with Symbian S60 3rd version devices and you can download it from here.

Here I will present a flashlight. Flashlights have always been useful, however, you often think of the cell problem... When will it stop working? I better not to use etc. :) Anyway, we are in technology era. Throw away that cells :p

A flashlight called Light for Life, after 90 seconds of charge, serves 120 minutes of usage. In this flashlight, led technology is used and can be charged 50 000 times.*

If we do the math, daily 120minutes mean 130 years of usage. That's why they say light for "life". However, the price is not so reasonable, $169. For detailed information of product and buy, you can look here. And here is a presentation video.

If you have much money and don't know where to spend, here is a good alternative :) Fine product but I wish price would be around $50...
