Now you can edit your FB Privacy Settings from the top bar. This is not yet available to everyone.

You might have noticed people making strange characters like “☺☻♥” on facebook e.t.c. Some of these, take the heart for example, can be _Triggered _using special codes, in this case, “<3”. But not every single one of them has codes known to public.

Anyways, these characters can be added by pressing Alt + (any key from the num-pad).

Examples:

1. alt + 1 = ☺
2. alt + 2 = ☻
3. alt + 3 = ♥

Chromium OS is an open-source, linux-based operating system, designed by google to work with web based applications. Its quite a simple one really, and not the sort everyone would like, in fact, the only application it comes with is a browser (though of course you can install more apps.)

Anyways if you feel like trying it, there are two ways to do so. The first is to download the disk image, burn a usb or dvd with it and boot with it. But if you dont wanna take any risks, you can try it on virtual box. All you need is virtual box, and the Chrome OS Virtual Disk.

The Process is simple. Start Virtual Box and create a new Machine. Select Linux Ubuntu as the OS Type, and when you come to the “Hard Drive” part, check “Use an Existing virtual hard drive file, and browse to the one you just downloaded. That’s it.

Now start the machine, the configuration process would hardly take a minute. Then just login with your google account.

Akismet is a wordpress plugin for reducing spam comments. It works by sending the info left by the commentor, to the Akismet servers, which checks whether the comment is spam or not. And it’s completely free for personal blogs.

The process is simple, just sign up at Akismet.com, and you’ll get an API key, once you have got it, go to your dashboard, activate Akismet, and enter your key, which was mailed to you.

Once while going through the cpanel of my site i came across a tool cause RVSkin. It’s basically a tool that allows you to fully customize the cpanel theme. The only problem with it is that once you activate it, there is no option of reverting back to the original one.

Well, just copy and paste this link into your address bar:
