WiFi File Transfer is a free Android app to transfer files from Android phone to PC and from PC to Android phone over wifi. You can easily access all the files stored on your SD card. Just install the app on your Android phone and then launch the app to get the browser link. Now enter the same browser link in your PC browser. You will see all your SD card data. From there you can easily transfer data from PC to Android or vice-versa. The app also tells you the device status which includes total space available and battery level. You can also delete and move any file and you can even create a new directory on your SD card.

I seriously thanks for the few souls who checked in to my almost abandoned website. Some of them might have noticed that I had moved on to Wordpress for a brief period and now I am back to Joomla again. Over the period of time I had been concentrating on the "look" of the site rather than concentrating on the "content" despite knowing well that "substance" is what drives people to any website, not the layout. I started taking components and templates from various "nulled scripts" site again knowing that "there is no free lunches" and there will definitely be any hack on the scripts through code injection. I was not serious about them because I don't have any sensitive information like Credit Card or Bank details on my site. But that affected the SEO maintenance badly. Whenever I check my webmaster tools, I get lot of malicious links like "http://www.maheshwaran .com /calipsy_pharma" which is automatically generated by the malicious codes.

As you all know that any gmail user can login to YouTube and upload their videos for sharing with the world, there are zillions and zillions of videos available on YouTube. Sometimes we might think of downloading all the videos uploaded by a user or playlist or the subchannel of an user. I use the "VideoDownloader" addon of the Mozilla Firefox to download the videos. However more the number of videos, more tedious and cumbersome it becomes.

This post is for those picture fanatics who frequent to the likes of tumblr for its huge collection of pictures. Sometimes you see a tumblr blog and wish that you have that whole collection in your hard disk for offline viewing. Saving individual files by right click is tedious and makes you wish that there is a way to automate it. After a franctic search, I had found that there is a Mozilla browser addon that saves the images collectively for you. Based on the cookies, this addon will download only newer images on subsequent downloads, but sometimes if you had cleared the cookies or use "incognito window", then you might find huge number of duplicates but with different names. So you need an another option to "find out" duplicates and delete them. This post is what I learnt to use in the scenario.

Auto Shutdown

I hope this post will be useful for the people who want to have their laptops / desktops shut down automaticall after a certain time. Aadhi was so obsessed with IceAge movies that he insisted on playing them always. He is very much aware of the computer functions that if I click "Shut Down", he starts crying. So I wanted to look for options that will automatically shutdown the computer after a specified time that I can pass it off as "powercut for the laptop". None of the freeware available met my requirement and I accidentally came upon this very useful option that doesn't require any additional software for shutting down the computer.

Sometimes back my brother-in-law, who is having a Computer Center at Mettur, asked me how to block the USB ports which the students are misusing. I suggested him to disable the USB ports in the device manager but he said that since the mouse & keyboards he uses are USB based, the students just plug out the mouse or keyboard and use their USB devices to copy / transfer the confidential materials as well as unmentionable materials.

I have a problem in remembering the WiFi passwords until I choose them. Sometimes when you go to your friends place, they'll key in the passwords for you so it will be there in the system but unknown to you. Today I came across this useful portable tool which helps us in revealing the passowrds of all the saved WiFi connections. You can't use this tool to find the passwords of the neighbours' WiFi connections for hacking into their network. So use it without fear.

Sometimes we end up hurting ourselves by letting some softwares installing their toolbars in the browsers. These toolbars are not only obtrusive, nagging but also slow down the browser's performance. Some browsers can be a threat to your security, so it is always advisable to choose the browser toolbars with caution while we are asked to install any browser toolbars. There are some rogue toolbars that refuse to uninstall themselves even after you try to uninstall via "Programs and Features" in the Control panel of the windows. This piece of software is helpful in uninstalling the unwanted toolbars and the best part is that it is "portable", no need to install. Just unzip, extract and run the software. I checked it with Antivirus program and thankfully it didn't have any malware attached to it. Please scan it with your Antivirus software before use.

Since I spend my prime time in office and travel, blogging suffered but became active in Facebook thanks to the mobile integration. On searching similar stuff for Joomla, I came across Joooid - an Android platform for Joomla but it didn't support K2. So the content migration took a while and a learning experience. Hoping to be active as much as possible.... we

KeyFreezeI stumble upon new softwares based on the needs only. When I am working on the computer (desktop or laptop) Buttu insists on sitting on my lap. Ofcourse it is lovely to spend those moments, he gives nightmare effects by pressing random keys while I am typing. So I had to look for some solution to overcome this. As usual Google fetched some choices like Kid-key-lock, Toddler Keys and KeyFreeze. Out of these three I found KeyFreeze to be simple and meeting my requirements.

JaxtrSMSஎன்னடா இந்த பையன் அடுத்த Android post போட்டிருக்கான்... அவன் கிட்டே smartphone இருக்குறதை காமிக்கிறானோன்னு நினைச்சுக்காதீங்க... இன்னைக்கு காலையிலே ரொம்ப யதேச்சையா இந்த Android app-ஐ பார்த்தேன். Deccan Herald பேப்பர்ல ஒரு மூலையிலே குட்டியூண்டா Hotmail founder-ஆன சபீர் பாட்டியா தான் புதிதாக உருவாக்கிய JaxtrSMS என்ற அவருடைய free SMS application நல்ல வரவேற்பை பெரும் என்று நம்புவதாக சொல்லியிருந்தார். நமக்கு தான் Android, application-ங்குற வார்த்தைகளை பார்த்தாலே கை உதற ஆரம்பிச்சிடுமே. உடனே எனது mobile-ல் download செய்துபார்த்தேன். சரி! அது என்ன JaxtrSMS?
