This is holidays time and a bit boring time for the students like me. Many of us sit idle before internet thinking what to do .Here is a superb way to spend time in holidays productively by discovering and sharing great web sites of your interest with StumbleUpon.

Basically StumbleUpon is an Internet community that allows its users to discover and rate Web pages, photos, and videos. Web pages are presented when the user clicks the "Stumble!" button on the browser's toolbar. StumbleUpon chooses which Web page to display based on the user's ratings of previous pages, ratings by his/her friends, and by the ratings of users with similar interests. Users can rate or choose not to rate any Web page with a thumbs up or thumbs down, and clicking the Stumble button resembles "channel-surfing" the Web. StumbleUpon also allows their users to indicate their interests from a list of nearly 500 topics to produce relevant content for the user. There is also one-click blogging built in as well.

How to Use StumbleUpon:

Ubuntu  is a computer operating system based on the Debian GNU/Linux distribution and is distributed as free and open source software with additional proprietary software available.It is named after the Southern African ethical principle Ubuntu ("humanity towards others"). Ubuntu provides an up-to-date, stable operating system for the average user, with a strong focus on usability and ease of installation. Web statistics suggest that Ubuntu's share of Linux desktop usage is about 50%, and upward trending usage as a web server.



I like tell you some facts about the versions of Ubuntu.A new version will be released for every 6 months and they are released in 4th and 10th month of any year.So the version number comes by combining year.month .The new is released in April 29 2010 i.e in the 4th month and the year is 2010 ,so the version name comes as Ubuntu 10.04.Ok the version is fine and what about the LTS beside the version.LTS is the acronym of Long Term Service, these editions are released once for 2 years and are supported for three years on the desktop and five years for servers .

Since it is a Open Source you can download it for free from their website .There will also do a favor for us.If we face any bandwidth problems in downloading the Ubuntu OS which is around 700mb ,they will ship it to our location for free of cost.And this is now available for the new Version  10.04 LTS , i think now you can understand the version name clearly.

Here is the procedure to get one Ubuntu 10.04 LTS to your home.

What is Run Command in Windows ??

On the Microsoft Windows operating system, the Run command is used to directly open an application or document whose path is known. It functions more or less like a single-line command line interface.Starting with Windows 95, the Run command is accessible through the Start menu and also through the shortcut key. (Windows key + R). The input field in the dialog will show roughly 40-42 characters.Although the Run command is still present in Windows Vista and Windows 7, it no longer appears directly on the Start menu by default, in favor of the new search box and a shortcut to the Run command in the Accessories sub-menu.

I think many of us don’t know this feature of Run that is if you type url of any web page and press enter then it opens the webpage in our default web browser.

Many of us don’t use Run because they don’t know the commands.So i am writing down around 156 run commands here which may be very useful to you (Source of these commands is MyPCHell.com ).

To Access…                                                                           Run Command

Accessibility Controls                                        access.cpl

Accessibility Wizard                                          accwiz

Add Hardware Wizard                                      hdwwiz.cpl

Add/Remove Programs                                    appwiz.cpl

Twitter –What is it & How to Use?

[tweetmeme source=HtNaMuS only_single=false]

[digg=http://digg.com/tech_news/Twitter_What_is_it_How_to_use_it]

Twitter is a social networking and microblogging service that enables its users to send and read messages known as tweets. Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 characters displayed on the author's profile page and delivered to the author's subscribers who are known as followers. Senders can restrict delivery to those in their circle of friends or, by default, allow open access. Users can follow lists of authors instead of following individual authors. All users can send and receive tweets via the Twitter website, external applications, Short Message Service (SMS) .

Technology author Steven Johnson describes the basic mechanics of Twitter as "remarkably simple:"

As a social network, Twitter revolves around the principle of followers. When you choose to follow another Twitter user, that user's tweets appear in reverse chronological order on your main Twitter page. If you follow 20 people, you'll see a mix of tweets scrolling down the page
