The PC remotely with Twitter

Twitter currently popularized more than any other Internet service. Last even Apple has offered a bid of 700 million. The micro-blogging service has had rebuffed the apple though.

Now I'm even in CHIP found a tool that turns Twitter into a sort of remote control unit. The whole piece of software called TweetMyPC. After downloading and installing the software you have to enter their Twitter account details. After you've registered with Twitter then again, you have the commands shutdown, restart, logoff, and the opportunity to let the PC execute the commands from a distance.

Nightly Blogging: relaxed working during the night

It is now almost 2 clock at night and I'm still awake. Nothing really unusual, I finally just holiday tomorrow and so far nothing before. But as the evening it will follow for the eyes to the more strenuous flashing pixels on the screen. So I ask you now have a tool that you can possibly work more enjoyable.

The tool is named f.lux and roughly fits to the color temperature of your time, and location. At the beginning you are asked how the coordinates of your current location. It's not hard to figure out, because with the help of Google Earth you can find out this quickly. Basically you have to specify only the name of your city and copy the data into the program coordinates flashing - that's it. Now f.lux fits to the color temperature of your screen.

Whether the tool is really bring so much now to be seen. A clever idea is exhilarating. Of course it is somewhat pointless at night the lighting in your room to burn at full strength but screw it on the other hand, the color temperature down. I think that the tool is more suitable for mobile use or to hold off the lights in demZimmer.

I for one feel when the lights actually a noticeable difference. The screen is not as bright as before, but this is logical.

What do you think of the software? If it determines it would be useful? Write to me in the comments! :)

Last but not the download link .

Software Tip: Launchy

Today you'll get you a little tip from me to heart, for you to work a little easier. I'll imagine the program Launchy.

Launchy is a kind of quick start function, as we know it from Windows Vista. The program scans your start menu and creates an index of the program shortcuts. Now you can use the key combination you [Alt] + [Space] to open a small program window. Here you can now enter the name of the program and press Enter, if you've found it.

This all sounds very theoretical. If you use the program but already 1-2 years, it is almost impossible to think away. Launchy is now standard on my PC has become, because you can simply call up programs much faster.

Give it a try. It really is a very useful tool!

Why magazines over time are forcibly displaced from the Web

I consider this just the latest computer screen in my hands. This is perhaps the second Issue I've taken this year. And I notice again and again that it is not really worth buying CB. First, the programs on the CD-booklet mostly freeware, which is software that are already available for free on the Internet. This time, for example, the "COMPUTER IMAGE Multi-Messenger" on the CD. Uhhh, a Multi-Messenger. If you look closely at the magazine, it's just a aufgepimpte Miranda version (which also gives it for free on the net).

On the other hand, it's not worth it to buy more magazines, because the articles (mainly news) simply are old again, if you hold the paper in his hands.

Cracking the iPhone should be legal!

The iPhone is so ne thing. Who has it, is always in fashion, but unfortunately, Apple has come up a few barriers that hinder your online experience. For example it is not possible unofficial, that is not available in the AppStore, software to play on the iPhone.

The Mozilla Foundation has now advocated the use of third party software to legalize the trendy phone . This "Jailbreaking" as they say it is the expert, not by the terms and conditions allowed by Apple. In the background is cut by many people the iPhone to unlock it as for other mobile networks.

Mozilla says:

"It certainly is not our task to criticize Apple, but it's a question of principle. An option is good for users and therefore should not be criminalized. "

And so has Mozilla in my opinion, right. At the moment not possible to load a different browser on the phone, as apparently the AppStore does not "mess" is to be taken. That's all well and good, but when I think about me that the iPhone is expensive pork, just because as a bitten apple is depicted on it, that's not quite right. If, however, still unnecessary barriers and restrictions on use is to come is no longer acceptable.

So please, Apple!

Welcome to the Microsoft Store, how can I help you?

Golem reports that Microsoft has in the near term plan to establish their own branches. For this, the Redmond software giant has a former Wal-Mart manager brought on board.

Be offered in the store Microsoft's own products. Course included the in-house operating system, the Xbox game console (as well as accessories and games), but products for mobile phones like Windows Mobile. Moreover, even keyboards and mice out of the house.

In Germany, Microsoft stores are not planned.

But I wonder whether Microsoft has done with such shops the big coup. Do they want to emulate Apple? Nothing against Microsoft, but Apple store irritates me more than a Microsoft Store. If only because Apple has style. What would tempt one to go into a Microsoft store? The products are getting cheaper on the internet anyway.
