Build your own personal Knowledge Base

Knowledge Base is usually a database which stores information on a specific subject. Usually it is used for technical trouble shooting steps and the updating is done by an individual or an assigned team of experts. Microsoft has a knowledge base and usually the articles stored in a knowledge base has separate KB ids.

Alex Personal Knowledge Base is a free software which allows you to create your own personal Knowledge Base on your computer.

Knowledge Base and Wiki

• The first question you might think of is why use Knowledge Base when you already have easy to use Wikis on the internet. The reason is simple. Knowledge Base has traditionally known to document trouble-shooting steps rather than all information.
• Lets say for instance you are creating a software. When faced with bugs or errors you can note down the various reasons why things went wrong and you actually have a troubleshooting guide.
• A lot of companies prefer knowledge base instead of wikis as knowledge base is more defined and controlled rather than online wikis.

Alex Knowledge Base software

Installing the Knowledge Base software is quite easy. It is installed on your computer and can be exported to another computer with the export option.

One of the main examples of Knowledge Base being helpful is Microsoft’ Knowledge Base. If you search for trouble shooting steps on Microsoft website, you will get to see their kb articles. Alex Knowledge Base is not really meant for companies but for personal projects. It could also be used as a pilot Knowledge Base before moving on to a bigger and more sophisticated software.

Create reminders to be sent via SMS, Email, Gtalk, MSN and Yahoo

Have you ever had this experiance that you wanted to call someone in the evenings and forgot every evening only to remember in the mornings? I often face this and sometimes I wish when its evening I had something to remind me about that call I have to make. I came across a website which does just that.

Memorari is a nice web site which allows users to set reminders and then send them over SMS, Email, ICQ, MSN, AOL messenger, Jabber and Yahoo chat.

About Memorari

• The website’s simplicity is what I liked best. No need so sign-in or register was also something that makes it easy to use.
• This is not really a meeting scheduler where you can add details, it more like a one line reminder. So this is more useful on reminding yourself about chores or calls which often slip our minds.
• If you want to remind yourself of an appointment this works great as I can simply send an SMS reminder to myself.
• I tested the SMS reminder service and was quite impressed with it. It does support a huge list of mobile services from all over the world that is quite impressive.

Take notes and store them online

Often when I work online, I need to store some text or write down notes. Sometimes I have a random idea and need to put down some words so I can look them up later and work on a concept.

What I do is write down notes on a Notepad and save the file on my desktop. As I work from different computers, I end up using Dropbox to make the file available on two different computers. This led me to try and look up for a notepad which can be used online and Simple Text does just that.

Simple Text

• All I needed to do was visit Simple Text website.
• Sign in with my Google account.
• Start typing and creating new notes. This note could be saved and accessed using my Google id.
• Simple Text being available online obviously makes it cross-platform. I find it a great help while writing points while writing a post and then storing them online.

Application Support

Simple Text does work with an Write Room for i-Phone application. Being open source, I think there should be more applications available across various platforms that support Simple Text. Some might say a notepad is not that important or even relevant. But I disagree here. Notepad applications are still relevant especially as a blogger I often feel the need to save or write down a few notes which I can refer to later.

best-of-the-best data backup and sync tools available on the internet

Data loss is a nightmare for any of us. Imagine your hard disk crashing overnight for no reason and you, loosing all your hard earned data in a split second (It actually, has happened with me, once).

Scary? Well, keeping backup is the fool proof idea to keep your data safe. Today, I’m going to tell you about the best-of-the-best data backup and sync tools available on the internet which will enable you not only to back up your data, but also to access it from anywhere in the world.

1. CrashPlan : It is available for Windows/Linux/Mac OS/Open Solaris. Extremely user friendly interface. You can back your data up offline by downloading their software and the software will automatically sync your data to the servers when you get online.
2. Mozy : Available for Windows/Mac, It has a basic FREE pack with 2 GB of online storage for you backups. The major plus point is, it is an automatic backing up system. Once you install Mozy in your computer, and it will take backups all by itself in real time. You can however, set the frequency of the backups taken.
3. DropBox : This is my favourite backup tool. I use it personally because it gives me seamless integration to both linux and windows backups. It is available for Windows/Linux/Mac and with a basic free plan of 2GB online storage. The best thing about drop box is, whenever you sign in for dropbox, you will get a referall link. If your friends sign up to dropbox using that link of yours, you get additional storage for your DropBox account.
4. Jungle Disk : Jungle Disk takes a different approach to backup on several different levels. Rather than offering a flat rate pricing for unlimited storage, Jungle Disk operates on a fee system. You pay $2 a month per account plus a fee per GB of data used. The fee structure per GB is currently: $0.15 for storage, $0.10 for upload, and $0.17 for download.
5. Carbonite : Available for Windows and Mac, they have a simple pricing plan: $54.95 for a year of unlimited storage from a single computer. Like Mozy, Carbonite also offers block-level incremental backup to speed up the backup process. You can access your files through a web-based interface when you are away from home, and you can use the Carbonite application to restore all or some of your files at any time.

Is Bing paying News Corp to delist websites from Google?

Bing has signed a deal with News Corp which gives them access to their content. It should not be really all that important except that News Corp only a few weeks ago had sent out feelers that they were about to de-list their websites from Google Search. This will probably start another round of the competition between Google and Bing.

Google vs Bing

• Bing has signed up a deal with News Corp and will be paying for exclusive material from their newspapers and journals. This most definitely means News Corp will de-list their website from Google search in return. What does it really imply? It implies that you cannot search for News Corp content using Google.
• This might in a way force Google do to the same, that is pay for news content and hence in the long run hurt their profits. Will Google follow Bing? I doubt it will. The loser in this case can be News Corp, who will have it’s website content show up only to people using Bing and no visitors will be directed from Google.
• Finally Google does not make any money from Google News so this would not really dent Google at all.

Blogs and Tweets

• Some news companies do have legitimate concerns because if their content is free to view it can also end up being copied by bloggers which in a way will finally hurt original creators of the content.
• What if their interpretation is different? Most respectable bloggers would never really copy material online. But if something that is news worthy will be commented upon and sometimes a alternative viewpoint presented.
• Even if News Corp is not listed on Google, it can still end up being on Google Search engine in the form of references by tweets and blog articles.

Who really owns the News?

The question is really debatable. Can a company lay claim to an event that happens in the public domain. I think that the way forward for news content providers would be to monetize their websites by having visitors and show them advertisements. This is done by many news providers anyways.

To expect people to pay for subscription is something that will probably not work. People are not really going to pay for content which they get for free somewhere else. For example you can gets access to news from a ‘tweet’ on Twitter. It does not even need a Search Engine to get the word around now a days.

Turn your computer into a radio station

How many times have you encountered the situation that you really wanted to listen to a song and that song isn’t in your iPod? Rather, it is lying in that lonely computer back at your home. If that has happened to you anytime, we are presenting a solution for that. Today, we will tell you how to turn your computer into a radio station so that you can reach your music database from just anywhere in the world.

There are many possible sharing solutions you may think of, like file sharing etc. but have you ever thought of streaming your media? Streaming is the technology which enable people to hear your music over the internet without downloading anything. Another plus point of doing this is, there can be a single PC storing all the music and there can be multiple PCs connecting to it. This way, this technology can prove to be a massive disk saver.

All this can be achieved by downloading a free Java-based application called Sockso

Features of Sokso

• No installation required. Just unzip and go.
• Share any file format.
• Java platform.
• Allow or block any user from downloading your content.

Simple process for setting up Sokso on your PC

• Download and unzip Sockso to a folder.
• Connect your computer to a home network / the Internet (depending on where you want to serve the music files).
• Click on the “Run Sockso” shortcut to launch the program.
• Select the music files / folders that you want to share.

• Share your computer IP address and Sockso port number (default:4444) with your friends e.g. http:// . They can use this address and listen to your collection using their web browser.

iPhone App to control wheelchairs over bluetooth

Dynamic Controls recently showed up an App for iPhone which allows iPhone users to control their WheelChair via BlueTooth. If you’ve used Nike+ with your iPhone or iPod you know what kind of stats you get out there and so you’ll be getting such kind of statistics for you wheelchair too like Speed, Direction, etc. It has also got a inbuilt charger for iPhone.

I don’t know if the Wheelchair part was that interesting but possibly, this could be the starting of Physical objects controlled via iPhone and perhaps we are going to see iPhone apps to control cars and household appliances too which may benefit us a lot!

Protect privacy while using Chrome with free software

When you use the Chrome Browser there are details which can be stored based on the unique ID. This browser is a favorite of mine and I love its functionality along with spartan design. Chrome is undoubtedly much faster than most other browsers out there.

Google Chrome uses a client_id variable which is unique for every Chrome user. This can be used to create user profiles of a user’s actions while using Chrome. You can delete this information and secure your browser by using a free software called Chrome Privacy Protector.

What is client_id in Chrome Browser?

It is a unique ID given to collect statistics of usage. Often such usage is used for tracking the usage for improvement of the browser. You may not choose for usage to be tracked in this way, but in case you are using a computer that is not yours or a public computer with Chrome you might like to try out Privacy Protector.

Chrome Privacy Protector

• Download the privacy protector from their URL and install the software.
• Once the software is installed, run it and see the software remove the Chrome Unique ID and also make the browser anonymous.
• The software once installed removes the client_id every time the browser is started up. Hence keeping your browsing experience on Chrome as private.

Google Chromium OS: Does it have a purpose?

Google has finally released Chromium OS as a open source project. The news about Google’s Chrome OS has been received by people with anticipation which is expected but views on the OS are different in many ways. Some experts think Chrome OS will drive Google to go the Microsoft way. Others think it will not last and the idea of an Chrome OS is not suitable when Linux is still around.

About Google Chromium OS

• Chromium OS will work on the principle that many people who use a computer may not want a OS which takes 45 seconds to load up. Chrome OS will load up in approx 3-4 seconds.
• One thing that stands out with Chrome OS, is it’s laser like focus on the internet. Google being an internet giant has not lost it’s focus with its OS. It keeps the focus as the internet and has built the Operation System around what a internet user will need.
• Chrome OS will not store a lot of data on the computer. This will give it a great advantage when it comes to security. All files and data will be stored online. Even if the computer is hit with a virus when Chrome OS updates the virus will be removed automatically.
• This will also mean that when if Chrome OS crashes, there will be no data loss as all data will be stored online. So if my Chrome OS crashes all I will need is to re-install it and I should be good to go with all my data intact as it would anyways be stored online.

Chrome OS vs Windows 7

Many blogs might be taking the name of Chrome OS as competition to Windows 7, but I doubt that is the case. Google has kept its focus on internet functionality unlike Microsoft which is multi focused. I doubt Google is even looking to rival Microsoft’s Windows with Chrome OS. The impact Chrome OS will have on the Operating System market is still to be seen. Being still a year away from when it might get out of beta where Chrome OS will position itself is difficult to predict.

But if Google gets Chrome OS right, there is a good chance that people who are just using the internet and their browser with their computers might just dump Windows and move over to Chrome. I do not see Mac users dumping their Macs for Chrome OS as most people who buy a Mac would need their computers for a lot more than just using the internet.

Google Chrome OS : Your Data is now on Clouds!

Google Had announced that it would be releasing a OS version of it’s browser Chrome in July. The Press event yesterday gave us a lot of more information as to what was going on, what were the key features and so on.

Key Features

Clouds

With Clouds i don’t mean actual clouds, but these are where all your data on Google Chrome OS Data will be stored. Well, nothing is on your computer so you can surely expect better speed and also the data is easily accessible from all of your devices so that you do not need to Shift it from one device to another.

Speed

Chrome was the fastest browser and one of the reasons why it was so because of it’s fastest loading Javascript Load Engine. You can expect the same thing from the Chrome OS which currently takes 7 seconds to start up and this is also going to be reduced as the development further progresses. Your Desktop Environment is also going to speed up because all of it apps are going to be web apps so compared to existing computers, it is damn fast, you get it?

All Things Web

Chrome OS would mark the beginning of the new era, the web era where all your content is on the web. You don’t need to start any Softwares or such to start working on your computer. Everything is just web. All applications are web apps so you don’t need to install or update them as so.

SpreadSheets on Chrome OS

The Ultimate User Experience

The Graphical User Interface is going to be the same as the chrome browser, the easiest to use but the capabilites just increase 10 fold. Games, Videos everything can be done on the relatively simple interface.

Updating

Last Year Google Chrome was updated over twenty times without even letting thier 40 Million Users know about it. How is that? Well, same is going to be in the Chrome OS where the updates will be on air updates. So users don’t ever need to search for updates, download them and install it manually. Everything will be automagical.

Security

With Google Chrome OS new Security as all your data will be Encrypted and will be stored on the Cloud. So significantly all your Data Loss Risks and Data theft risks are reduced. No Antivirus needed!

Second, because all apps live within the browser, there are significant benefits to security. Unlike traditional operating systems, Chrome OS doesn’t trust the applications you run. Each app is contained within a security sandbox making it harder for malware and viruses to infect your computer. Furthermore, Chrome OS barely trusts itself. Every time you restart your computer the operating system verifies the integrity of its code. If your system has been compromised, it is designed to fix itself with a reboot. While no computer can be made completely secure, we’re going to make life much harder (and less profitable) for the bad guys. If you dig security, read the Chrome OS Security Overview. Via Thier Blog.

Open Source

This was much expected from Google who made Chrome OS an Open Source project and the source code is available here. Open Source Means you can expect more from developers world wide.

The Chrome OS is more concentrated on the NetBooks market because it wants to target the potential of that market which is growing speedily.

The whole Chrome OS concept is completely opposite to what we use today.

Today : Browser in Operating System

Tomorrow : Operating System in Browser (+1 from Google)

The Chrome OS is going to be absolutely free and consumers can expect it next year around November-December.

Secunia Personal Software Inspector

Keep All Your Softwares Up-to-date:
One of the best ways to protect your PC is to keep all your software up-to-date. Patching over security holes blocks online attackers who like nothing more than exploiting old software flaws to surreptitiously install Trojans and other malware.

The free Secunia Personal Software Inspector makes it easy to find and fix old programs on your PC, even those that lack automatic update features. It scans your computer to find out what versions of what software you have installed, and it reports on which might contain known security holes.



But the excellent app doesn't stop there. Secunia PSI also provides clickable links to download available patches or program updates, which makes updating most software a snap. Other helpful icons can open the program's folder, bring up online references for any security advisories, and perform other useful tasks.

Less technical users can opt for a simple interface mode that lists only easy-to-patch software. But it's worth trying the advanced interface, which displays a wealth of information about your installed software. The latest version includes a handy "Secure Browsing" tab that reports not only on your browser version(s), but also on any plugins, ActiveX controls, Firefox add-ons and other extras.



Secunia Personal Software Inspector
