We highlighted a powerful mobile app that allows you to convert to and from PDF files yesterday. However, if you’re sitting on a desktop you might want the flexibility to easily convert and share files. This is where the revamped Cometdocs comes into the picture.
When I checked out avast! Mobile Security, I was impressed by what the free mobile app had to offer and wrote to Rohit of Blogsolute to write a guest post on Blogsolute. Rohit was kind enough to oblige and you can read the article that was posted early this week.
In the past taking a screenshot from your Android device was a painful experience requiring you to root your device. Even today, many of the screenshot apps available on Google Play require root access. However, if you’re running Android Jelly Bean then you don’t need any special apps to take screenshots, since the OS comes inbuilt with support for them!
If you have the Google Search app on your Android lets you quickly view the current weather of the location that you’re in, but anything more than that is just a painful experience! I’ve been searching for a decent weather app and came across 1Weather which is simply a cool app if you’re interested in monitoring the weather around you or any other city in the world. 1Weather gives you real-time weather information and forecasts plus weather related tweets from your area that tell you what real people are saying about current weather conditions.
Opera announced today that they have crossed the 300m users mark. The browser has seen an increasing adoption amongst users across all its platforms. I’ve been using Opera for several years now at a time when it was ad-supported.
I remember when I first started working with websites more than a decade ago, if you wanted a cool looking button in your form, you had to use images.

During my regular work, I tend to face repeated issues of Excel hanging. This can be really frustrating because a stuck Excel means a painful wait for Windows to figure out what it wants to do with the process. Unfortunately, there isn’t much I can do about this because it is mainly due to addons that I have installed in Excel, which are required for me to do my job coupled with large files with tens of sheets and hundreds of rows with data.

A few weeks back, we posted about the reawakening of an age old chain message that concerned Facebook users posted in an attempt to protect their privacy. I don’t think it is in response to this, but Facebook released a new feature that aims to put privacy controls more into the hands of the users instead of tucking them away into screens they won’t get through. You’ll find the new settings in the top right of your Facebook just next to your photo.
Google Drive offers you up to 5Gb free space for storage. I currently have most of that vacant since I have my important files backed up on Dropbox and Mozy. Hence have been considering of using this free space to save remote backups of my sites.
