Do You Wish to See Delicious Shut Down? [Poll]
By | December 22, 2010 |
The poll last week was “What’s Your Favorite Instant Messaging Application?” and the results were out. 40% of you loved Pidgin, the versatile multi-protocols IM application. Google Talk was at second place with 15% of the vote. Digsby was at a distance third with only 9% of the vote (I expect it to be higher). The remaining ranking: Trillian, Empathy, Kopete, Adium, MSN Live Messenger, Miranda and iChat. A total of 96 votes were casted.

Automatically Save Tweeted Links With Packrati.us
By | March 14, 2010 |
The social aspect of the web is intertwining itself into everything new. Applications and programs are coming out daily to add a new social feel to old out-dated applications. Some combine two applications to make one super application. One such web based application is Packrati.us.
The basic idea behind Packrati.us is to capture all of the links you talk about on Twitter.
Many people have a Twitter account. Most are using it to tell people what they are doing or chat back and forth. As these people get the hang of how easy it is to share information and sites of interest, it can be hard to keep track of all that information.

Three Easy Ways to Synchronize Your Bookmarks Across Various Browsers
By | June 12, 2009 |
Like many of you, I use a LOT of different computers. Some at home, some at work, some in between. Many of these computers have more than one operating system installed, and those operating systems may have more than one browser. All this leaves a LOT of places you may have saved your bookmarks. What’s saved on one might not be saved on another, or perhaps you reformatted your OS and forgot to backup your favorite websites. Fortunately, there are a multitude of ways to solve this problem, and today we’ll be covering some of them. Each of the programs/toolbars/extensions we’ll try out today can store your bookmarks outside your browser so that they can be accessed from anywhere.
