<a name='more'></a>WhatsApp, a 3 year old messaging products which is one of the mostly used messaging service, lately bought by Facebook for 19 billion dollars. A great app used by almost all smartphone owners for all sorts of purposes had a serious flaw in terms of privacy. The whatsapp display picture which is visible to everyone to those who has your number, the excited thing which one put as status visible to everyone, also the last at.<br />
<br />
Whatsapp had been a great tool to stalk someone by just knowing their mobile number. But now this concern is addressed. Whatsapp team in their recent Android app update had implemented a new account privacy settings feature to enable user to filter who all can see ones' Display picture, status update and last seen time.<br />
<br />
As given in Google Play's WhatsApp page<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div class="recent-change">
<span style="font-size: small;">2.11.186</span></div>
<div class="recent-change">
<span style="font-size: small;">new privacy settings for last seen, profile photo and status</span></div>
</blockquote>
<br />
This privacy settings can be found in Settings -- Account -- Privacy.<br />
<br />
For now the options provided to filter those who can see your personal informations are Everyone, My Contacts and Nobody. My thought It would be better if we can choose specific groups for these filters. <br />

pervious month. Credits to Snowden, whistle-blower of NSA's nasty
secret survilance. Online privacy is being questioned and commented
at large. Though most people are careless and takes no initiatives to
fend themselves from being watched. It must change. </div>

The highly used search engine around
the globe is Google. Its evident form the tailored ads its one of the highy tracked search engine. Whatever we search gets stored in their servers. This is not
stalking. They are trying to know us better to provide us the best.

Its July 1. Google Reader is retiring today. It has been a great product which helped a lot of people especially for beginners like me to keep me posted about stuffs. But its time and the big question is Alternatives? Yeah! There are a lot of alternatives begin developed over past few months. Still a lot of them are in BETA stage. Only few have come out working.</div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<a href="http://cloud.feedly.com/#welcome" target="_blank">Feedly</a><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://cloud.feedly.com/#welcome" target="_blank"><img alt="Feedly Reader Alternative for Google Reader" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjv3GqJxaV7opxgu7IplmeMj17xucWd6koxIUrAO-64uVAPc0HyvKwJ8iQKqO8j2-jf_IQe3-EC0z21D6mlWvE89_dgBZziAscaB30eJbDa3nfWPmQPve6cXIxIIwUSArsOJz0W9eFm-Dw/s317/Screenshot-1.png" title="feedly reader" /></a></div>
<br />
Its a great alternative for Google Reader. With one click all the content sources and stuffs from Google Reader can be imported into feedly reader. It keeps track the read and unread, have options to store a post and read later. The user interface is smooth and provide different options for viewing feeds. Its easily customizable. Even it supports different themes to please the readers. Feedly is a good alternative for Google Reader.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://digg.com/login?next=%2Freader" target="_blank">Digg</a> <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://digg.com/login?next=%2Freader" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgINH_VlM8pp4-5wCrB5F-15XqPTeKlbEaldUquYPhpPAIh74NGjIe7vf5Zjys6bFJWRkKQYBLeaTSB0gC3oWv76wWIuOwZPUQZbURvaVrH0VRQZO7WCPD7fms-6qruwozV5DGustEgBTs/s283/Screenshot.png" /></a></div>
Digg Reader is simple in look but powerful like Google Reader in functionality. It provides all the features that feedly provides except different view options and themes. Yet the interface is simple and powerful. With Digg we can link to 3 different mobile apps Pocket, Readability, Instapaper. Any saved article will be reflected in the linked account of Pocket, Readability, Instapaper which helps the users read the posts on the go. Digg reader is the best alternative for Google Reader.<br />

This has got a lot of function like managing the gallery, updating the firmware in phone to syncing the entire phone with the pc. This post only focuses on using the mobile as modem to connect to internet. Changing a mobile into a Wifi Hotspot is one option, but this wont work unless a Wifi port is available in PC. This method need only USB port and data cable for the Android mobile.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<ul>
<li>Download the mobile suite software form <a href="http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/SW/201302/20130220165326135/KiesSetup.exe">here</a>. </li>
<li>Install the KIES software in your PC.</li>
<li>Connect the mobile to PC .</li>
<li>Goto Settings in your mobile, select Network then USB tethering.</li>
</ul>
Its all set. Now the PC easily identifies the THUNDERBIRD BCM21553 device. The driver for the same device is bundled with KIES package. So connect to internet using Samsung mobiles. This method also works with non-android Samsung mobile.

There are numerous ways. I am giving you the two best and ever working methods.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #6fa8dc;"><a href="http://techtipsguide.blogspot.in/2012/05/access-blocked-site-like-torrentz.html">USING IP ADDRESS</a></span></b><br />
Get the sites’ IP address from <a href="http://www.ip-adress.com/whois/">http://www.ip-adress.com/whois/</a>. Copy that IP address and paste it in your address bar. The site is no more blocked.<br />
<br />
STEPS<br />
<br />
1) After you open <a href="http://www.ip-adress.com/whois/">http://www.ip-adress.com/whois/</a> <span class="GRcorrect" grphrase="bf4750b2e381faaa1ad48bfcbca4a8591133ae02" grtype="null" id="GRmark_bf4750b2e381faaa1ad48bfcbca4a8591133ae02_,:0">,</span>search for the text box which is as below:<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
3) Copy that IP address and paste it in the address bar. The restricted site is now accessible. Note that every time you wish to open a blocked site, you will have to find its IP address. <span class="GRcorrect" grphrase="3cc9990659bb11067fd007cabab5fcf56d3b3bba" grtype="null" id="GRmark_3cc9990659bb11067fd007cabab5fcf56d3b3bba_Its:0">Its</span> advisable to keep a collection of "IP addresses" of the sites you frequently visit<span class="GRcorrect" grphrase="3cc9990659bb11067fd007cabab5fcf56d3b3bba" grtype="null" id="GRmark_3cc9990659bb11067fd007cabab5fcf56d3b3bba_,:1">,</span>which are blocked, in a Notepad to facilitate easy access.<br />

There is one more easy one-step way to access the blocked sites. For this method the sites must have https enabled. Torrentz provides https connection. So we can open torrents by giving the url as<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>https://www.torrentz.eu </b>instead of http://torrentz.eu.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
You can follow this method to open any blocked sites provided that site have https enabled. If they don't use the IP address as in the first method.<br />
<br />
UPDATE: The first method of accessing the site by IP address in not working any more with Youtele connections. But the second method is working fine. </div>

Most of the browsers have a set of same shortcut keys to make the use of it easy. All of us will be using more than using one browser like Mozilla and Chrome. They too have same set of shortcuts. Those shortcuts are listed below.<br />
<a name='more'></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
All the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">arrow keys</b> are used commonly by all browsers to navigate through the pages.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">F5</b> is the common refresh action shortcut. Mozilla, Chrome and even windows have this key for refreshing.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
To toggle the page between Full screen and window mode <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">F11</b> key is used.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">ESC</b> key is used to stop loading the current page.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Generally Back Space is used to move back to the previous page. This can also be accomplished by the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Alt + Left arrow</b> key combination. Likewise the Forward operation can be done by <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Alt + Right arrow</b> key combinations.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Zoom a page is very easy in the browser which uses the key combination <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Ctrl+</b><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">+ </span></b>to zoom in a page. As the same as above one <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Ctrl+</b><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 115%;">-</span></b><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;"> </span>is used to zoom out a page. These very same tasks are also shared by <b>Ctrl</b><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">+Mouse scroll up</b> to zoom in and <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Ctrl+Mouse scroll down</b> to zoom out. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The most impressive feature of the recent browsers is <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Tab</b>. We can open a several tabs in a single window. But when we open a lot number the ram gets dumped. The shortcut key to travel between tabs is <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Ctrl + Page up</b> which takes us to the next tab and <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Ctrl+Page down</b> which takes us to the previous tab.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
To view a specific tab in a window use the key combination <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Ctrl+numbers 1 to 9,</b> which will take us to the Nth number of tab which we entered. Number greater than 10 won’t work.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When we wanted to open the download window to see our previous or current downloads just press the key combination <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Ctrl+J</b>.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Clearing the browsing history, frees up disk space in the hard disk. It also clear the auto suggestions and save auto form fill thus anyone else who uses our computer can’t be able to login into our account or use our card details (often happens in my room). This is done by cleaning software like <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><a href="http://techtipsguide.blogspot.com/2010/11/ccleaner-must-have-system-tuning.html">CCleaner</a></b>. But our browser provides the above feature by default. The shortcut for clearing the history is <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Ctrl+Shift+Delete.<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><br />
</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We can also be hidden for the history to track us and save our preferences. This can be done by using Private Browsing. In Mozilla the Private Browsing can be easily opened by using the key combination <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Ctrl+Shift+P</b>. But in Google Chrome this Private Browsing is termed as INCOGNITO which means without being know. The key combination <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Ctrl+Shift+N</b> opens up the New Incognito Window.<br />
<br />
UPDATE: It usually occurs that we accidently happen to close some tab that we need. To recover those tab just press the key combination <b>Ctrl+Shift+T.</b> Most of the browser use this key combinations and record around 10 recently closed tabs.</div>

Have you ever come around web pages containing more ads than the content? Certainly most of the people have encountered this situation as like me. Excess of ads decreases the attractiveness of the page and the contents looses it value.<br />
<a name='more'></a>But its never been a problem for reader like you and me. We never wanted to see the ads but focus only on the content. How good it will be if we have a extension which gives us only the content of a page without any ads. <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/jdfpkfddmojhlcoepfpdileleloickfj">Text Only, Please!</a> extension serves us for this need. It is a Google Chrome extension developed by <a href="http://www.shankarganesh.com/">Shankar Ganesh</a>. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
Once you install this extension a dedicated icon is seen on the toolbar. When you want to show a page in Text Only mode just open up the page and click the Text Only, Please! Icon. This will render you the current webpage into ads and clutter less page. Or just press the key combination of Alt + T to load the current page in Text Only mode.</div>

The default application only have 3 fonts with it so using this file we can extend that three fonts to 37 different fonts and make our mobile so interesting and appealing. <br />
<a name='more'></a>I have tried this in my NOKIA 5233 and it works perfectly. Hope you too will try and comment positively. To install the additional fonts you have to first install the Filpfont software in the mobile. It you dont have that application in you mobile dont worry this download contains both the application and additional fonts.<br />
<br />
First download the files from the following link<br />
<a href="http://goran.mobile9.com/download/content_delivery.php?key=NDQzL2ZsaXBmb250djVfMTJzNzI2NTIuc2lzfDEyOTI5MjMwNjB8">Flipfont + 37 signed Premium Fonts</a><br />
<br />
After downloading the above file please follow the steps listed below.<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Rename the .sis to .rar</li>
<li>Extract the file into a folder in your PC.</li>
<li>In the extracted folder there will be one sisx application and another .rar file</li>
<li>The .sisx application is the flipfont application so install it in your mobile </li>
<li>Extract that .rar file with the 37fonts(extract me) to a folder named flipfont.</li>
<li>Then copy the extracted flipfont folder to C:\DATA\ into your mobile</li>
