<div style="text-align: justify;">
Normally you can enter tweets via the app from anywhere directly to Twitter, there is also an option to tweet via email. This even comes with some advantages as it offers more<br />functionality.<br />To begin, you must log in to the free service Twittermail. Head to the website <a href="http://twittercounter.com/pages/%20twittermail" target="_blank">twittercounter.com/pages/ twittermail</a> and click “Sign in with Twitter” on the top left corner. In a new window, confirm the link by clicking “Authorise app”. On the next page, you can deactivate all the options for Twitter Counter from the Settings. Once done, click “Save and go”. Then, you will come to the dialog for “Twitter mail Settings”. The “Twittermail address” generated here is very important. Here you can take the suggested encrypted name or you can change the address in the field. However, please note that every email sent there would automatically generate a tweet in your profile in the future.<br />Also take note that, addresses that can be guessed easily, can lead to Spam in the tweets. You only have to enter your “Twitter password” when you want to forward images in your tweets. In the field<br />"Cut of phrase”, you can define a text that marks the end of the text to be forwarded in the email. With this, you can prevent the publishing of your signature too. You can also keep the field empty and use the two line breaks as end markers. With the Setting "Message body”, the combination field<br />“What to tweet” determines whether the message should be published on Twitter. You can also choose "Subject" for the subject line or for both. Copy the encrypted mail address in your address<br />book. Once the "Save settings" options is clicked, the service will be ready to use.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Other than small emoticons, there are also larger stickers available, which you can use in chat messages on Facebook. If you don't like the pre-installed ones, you can download more for free. To do this, open a chat dialog in the Facebook app. While you can insert the available emoticons via the plus sign to the left of the input field, there is a new smiley to access stickers to the right of the input field. The first set of stickers is already available. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The lower menu bar facilitates the access to the recently used stickers, different sticker collections as well as the purchase basket of sticker store. You can select more sticker sets here and download them free of cost via the arrow symbol. Scroll through the respective collection and click the sticker to send it in the current chat. Unlike the emoticons, the image is not inserted in the text, but separately and immediately without further confirmation. The whole thing is a rather amusing form of nudging via images. TIP On the Facebook website, the smiley is in the input field. The standard Smileys and a mini-selection of stickers are available here you can expand it as suggested via the Facebook app.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Smartphones batteries have to be recharged often even while traveling. Handy USB ports used for recharging is now available almost everywhere; but it could also pose a risk. The USB connection to an external systems may result in data exchange. This is now common not just for PCs but also other devices.<br />Depending on the configuration of the smartphone and external system, it can lead to automatic connection – which you may not realise.<br />For example, photos may be uploading to a service like Dropbox in the background. On Android, there is a high possibility that malware may be installed on the device. Therefore, the safest thing to do is to switch off the smartphone completely before connecting it to the external USB port. If you want to or have to leave the device active, you should be careful while connecting and be aware if the<br />device is requesting for a mode. If it is, always select the option “Charge only”.<br />In Android's “Developer options” in the settings, be sure to check here whether “USB debugging” is deactivated. Also, be sure to go to the “Security” settings and deactivate the option “Unknown source” in order to prevent the installation of apps or malware from unreliable sources.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you use Firefox on your Android device, you normally get hits from Google, Amazon, Twitter and Wikipedia when you search for a keyword. If you want to limit the search only to Google or want to extend it to other search engines like Yahoo, you do not have the option to manage the search engines<br />from the search box like on the PC.<br />The configuration of search engines is available in the add-ons menu. For this, open the settings of the app and the tap on "Extras" and then on “Addons”. Besides other possible extensions this list shows the set search engines where the aforementioned four search engines are integrated. In order to switch off any one of it, tap on it and then on “Deactivate” in the following dialog. With the same method, you can later reselect the search engines later by tapping on “Activate”. To insert additional search engines, tap on the icon to the right next to "Your Add-ons". Only in the following dialog, enter the search keyword as “Yahoo” or “Bing” in the field on the page and then tap on the green arrow. Search for the suitable add-on such as “Yahoo Search for Firefox Android” in the list. Then open the detailed display and tap on “Add to Firefox”. Confirm the request for the new search machine by selecting “Add”.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
While setting different ringtones for different contacts allows you to easily identify them, it doesn't quite help when your phone is set to silent mode during a meeting. With the iPhone, you can also set a different vibration pattern for each contact so that with some practice you can also tell who is calling. To do this, you have to first open the Contacts app and select the respective contact you want. Select “Edit” and search “Vibrate” in the menu, which is usually set to standard. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In the section "Normal”, there already some typical patterns available which you can select by clicking on them. If you want to personalise it further, you can also "Create a new vibration". You can easily create the sequence by specifying a scheme by selecting any of the grey areas on the screen in the desired time sequence. The compilation begins automatically with the first tap. Subsequently you can test the vibration with the option "Repeat" and, if required, "Record” it again. If you are happy with the sequence, select “Save” and give the vibration pattern a name. After that, this pattern will be immediately available in the menu for selection.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
If BIOS error messages constantly appear during startup and it seems like it doesn't have any effect on the operation of the system, it could probably be caused by the back-up battery that has run dry. Previously, this could be easily detected from the incorrect system time, but now, since this - as well as other settings - are synchronised over the Internet. It is no longer a reliable indicator.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Depending on what type of user you are, a performance graphics card is sometimes necessary, so that the latest games runs smoothly and with high quality. However, before buying, make sure to check whether your motherboard is compatible with the new card. Some high performance models actually take up the entire length of the PCIe slots even on a ATX sized motherboard. Therefore, you should make sure if it actually fits into your computer chassis. Sometimes the hard disk cages or the fan of the CPU and the cases can get in its way. These days, the connection technology will never be an issue: as the PCIe connection has been a standard that has been established for many years. However there are several different revisions. To ensure that the card performs to it fullest, you should compare the specifications of the motherboard and the graphics card before making a purchase. The installation is usually not critical. But older drivers can cause problems. So before you start working with driver removal tools, you should consider a clean reinstallation of the system. This often solves all the problems.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Have you ever felt that the battery of your mobile phone or camera must be constantly recharged after a short while? This is actually because the performance of the battery reduces over time. Here are some power-saving measures for you to try out, so that you can prevent it from happening. With this, even smartphones can stay powered up for awhile longer. To improve the performance of the battery slightly better on your own: just simply charge and discharge the battery in repeated successions within a short time. Be sure to always completely discharge it but simultaneously do not leave it for the whole day or else it will total discharge and that could possibly make the battery unusable permanently. This tip is particularly handy for devices, whose batteries are not compatible or have already lost massive amounts of running time due to frequent short time charging.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you seriously want to save money by refilling your ink or toner cartridges yourself, here are a few basic rules you should follow to get yourself prepared. Make sure everything is ready before proceeding with the task, because nothing is more annoying than when you have to search for something with ink on your fingers. You will need: Disposable gloves, paper towels, window cleaner, stationery knife, disposable syringe with needles and a drip-resistance base so that the ink does not stain your table top during the process. Do not hesitate when it comes to refilling! As soon as the first light-colored stripes are seen on a print image you should get into action.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />This is because empty cartridges dry up quickly, causing it to clog up very easily. As for Bubble Jet printers, the nozzles are cooled by the discharging ink. If the nozzles run dry the excessive heat can destroy them. Air also plays an important role while refilling: Of course the air must basically be cleaned out from the empty cartridge and the ink. However, do pay attention while refilling and make sure the cartridge is not filled to the brim and that there are no air bubbles in the syringe and later in the cartridge. Air bubbles can prevent the ink from discharging when it lies in front of the nozzle. Lodged air bubbles cannot be removed even if you use reduced or excessive pressure, as the air can compress and expand. Depending on the printer and cartridge model, there are additional hurdles like security chips or coding that you must deal with separately. Moreover, there can be slight variation in colors, light and abrasion resistance. So, firstly do check on the Internet to find out which refill method should be used and what are some of the things to take into account..</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We are actually against the storage of refilled cartridges since these are or were opened before so they tend to dry out quickly. You can remove the rest of the ink residues on the hands by using soft soap(this can be found and purchased from a hardware store or pharmacy)</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Every key on the standard keyboard handles over thousand of strokes - without making a mistake. Despite this fact, keyboards can start acting up but this is mainly because of external sources: Dust, crumbs, hair, cigarette ash, liquids and so on, which often falls into the spaces between the keys of the keyboard over the course of time. All these things affect the mechanics and can cause contact issues. If the keyboard is not working properly and it is not due to a drained battery and pinched or broken cable then the first you should do is shut down the computer and turnover the keyboard once and shake it vigorously so that the rough and loose particles will fall out. The next step is to clean it with a vacuum cleaner and upholstery nozzle. A possible film of dirt on the keys and frames can be removed with the normal wet wipes.</div>

In Gmail, you can also monitor your account activity easily, which can help you to avoid hacking, but not many of you are aware of it or don't know how to fully utilize it. You will find this information at the bottom of the Gmail webpage. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Using this option, you may find many useful details in it including :<br /><br /> 1. Which web browser was used to open / check email account.<br />2. If any software / web service tried to pull some information from your account, it will be listed in the list.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. How the email account was accessed (PC or Mobile).<br />4. The location (Country / City) from where the Inbox was accessed.<br /> 5. The IP address of the PC<br /> 6. Time and Date when it was last accessed.<br /><br /> After viewing these details, you can easily identify whether anyone else has accessed your account or not. Most importantly, the information is displayed in such a way in the Activity information log that any person can read it and identify unusual / suspicious activity.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />A great application that lets you take control of your power usage quickly and easily</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
GO Power Master is a great and simple-to-use battery optimisation app that gives you a score based on how well your phone is using its energy. You can tweak a lot of settings straight from the app, including the brightness of your screen and which connections you have running, as well as creating your own custom battery profiles to make your own specific battery saving routine. There are lot of tweaks and changes you can make with GO Power Master, so here we will inform you about getting the app set up and running your first optimization check.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Get the app set up</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once you’ve downloaded the app, run it. You’ll notice a battery level indicator appears in your notifications bar and that the app gives you a score. If the score is green you’re doing fine, if it’s<br />not, you’ll need to do some work.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Run your first check</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tap on the button that says Optimize Now. This might take a few seconds, but it’s running a check to see what apps and connections you have running, and to see the quality of your battery. Your score should go up a little afterwards.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Go a little deeper</strong><br />Underneath the new score you’ll see a series of suggestions for making things smoother. Some you’ll want to keep running, others are pretty smart, like turning off Wi-Fi when your screen is off. Tick boxes to see your score go up.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Still facing a problem?</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you’re still having a problem you might find that there’s something wrong with your battery itself. Head to the Tool tab and tap on Battery Info. This will give you a breakdown of your battery and tell you if it needs replacing.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong><span style="font-size: large;">Top five battery-saving tips for Android mobile and tablet users</span></strong> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
1. <strong>Built-in App</strong><br />
Many phones and tablets have their own built-in power saving mode. Make sure you activate this.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. <strong>Screen brightness</strong><br />
Your screen is the biggest drain on the battery. It’s not really a surprise, considering how big some modern smartphones are. Knock down the brightness and you’ll fi nd that your battery lasts noticeably longer.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. <strong>Charge when necessary</strong><br />
It’s a good idea to run your battery to empty very occasionally to reset it. It’s good to try and let the battery drop to around 40% before you charge it, there’s no need to keep it at 100%.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4. <strong>Bring a spare cable</strong><br />
If you’re using your phone as a tether to connect your laptop to the internet on the go, take a connecting wire with you so you can charge your phone from your laptop.<br />
<br />
5. <strong>Don’t be afraid to change</strong><br />
If you find that one of your apps is using a lot of energy, why not look for an alternative. There are thousands of apps on the Play store and you should be able to find a replacement no matter what app you’re using.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<strong>OS</strong><br />
Short for ‘operating system’. Often the Android ROM will be referred to as the OS – this just means the system files on the Android device that make up your user experience, similar to Windows, Mac OS X or Ubuntu on a desktop computer.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>ROM</strong><br />
Stands for ‘read-only memory’. In the context of Android, the ROM refers to the files that make up the operating system installed on your device. Gaining root privileges allows for replacement of the standard ROM with a custom one.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>ROM Manager</strong><br />
An app available from the Android Market that enables you to install a whole new version of your OS with a single click. It requires a rooted phone to use and is ideal for those new on the scene.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Root</strong><br />
‘Rooting’ your phone gives apps access to parts of the OS that are normally hidden from consumers. This enables you to run more powerful software and install custom ROMs on your phone.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Titanium Backup</strong><br />
This app from the Market enables you to back up everything on your phone – apps, data, settings and all. It means that you can restore your phone to how it was, even after you’ve updated or changed the ROM.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Unrevoked</strong><br />
Available from <a href="http://www.unrevoked.com/">www.unrevoked.com</a>, this is a one-click tool that can be used for rooting many popular HTC smartphones.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>ADB</strong><br />
Stands for ‘Android Debug Bridge’. ADB is mainly used for software development, but it also has some uses for hacking your phone. It can be used to push fi les onto the system folder, for instance.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Nandroid</strong><br />
You might come across the phrase ‘perform a Nandroid backup’. This means using a custom recovery tool to make a back-up image of everything currently on your phone: OS, apps, data, etc. It’s very useful should you wish to restore your phone to its previous state later.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Radio</strong><br />
‘Radio’ refers to the software on your Android device that deals with making phone calls and data connections. Updating your radio version can bring better battery life and signal strength to your device. Some ROMs require the latest radio.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Flash</strong><br />
The storage in your device comprises flash memory, a type of solid-state storage. The terms ‘flash’ or ‘flashing’ mean installing new software onto your device’s storage.</div>

Depending on the number of people you follow on Twitter, your Twitter timeline is bound to be flooded with hundreds of tweets every day. In this deluge of Tweets, it’s quite possible that you may miss out on some important ones, or something that might interest you. If you want to keep a track of tweets, then you can use services that will alert you to tweets from people or topics that you follow. One such service is Tweet Alarm.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />Go to <a href="http://www.tweetalarm.com/">www.tweetalarm.com</a> and create a new account.

If you want to ignore tweets from some people, then you have the option to create a list for that as well. Simply add the keywords separated by a comma, and click on "Add". Once you connect your Twitter account to the site, you will also receive alerts about new followers and people who've unfollowed you. You will receive all the information you have requested via email. You also have an option to manage the frequency of email alerts. You can choose between daily, weekly or as often as the service finds relevant tweets.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
As a parent, it is quite natural to be concerned about children's safety online. But children may not want to give you access to their social networking accounts, and might mistake your concern as intrusion into their lives. In such a scenario, you can take help of applications such as Social Media Child Protection (SMCP). This application is available for Android and iOS, and lets you monitor basic data about your child’s account.<br />After you install the app on your smartphone, you will have to enter the login ID and password of your child’s Facebook and Twitter accounts. You can ask your child to key in the login details of their accounts; this way they won’t have to worry about you knowing the password. The app will then monitor the registered accounts. It will provide you with information such as incoming and outgoing friend requests on Facebook; pictures on their timeline; messages with people not on the Friends list; and who they're following on Twitter. However, it won’t let you access any conversations they have. This app provides you with a perfect way to keep a tab on your child’s activity on social networking sites, without needing to be connected with them.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you like to buy and read rare books from Amazon's ebook store on the Kindle, you must wait for them to make it to the store. But instead of checking regularly if Amazon offers the book for Kindle, you can delegate this task to the free service, eBookWatch.de. This is a German site, but you can use Google to translate the website into English for you.<br />Open the website and enter the ten-digit ISBN number of the book you're looking for under the "ISBN-10 / ASIN of the book:" field. You can find this number on Amazon under "Product information" or on the book's website. Next, enter your email address in the "Email alert for:" field<br />and confirm your request by hitting the "Settings eBookWatch" button.<br />The service regularly checks whether Amazon has announced the specified book for Kindle. If the book has been released for Kindle, the site will then inform you on the email address you had provided. The site will email you a link to the book you mentioned, and another link with which you can prevent the site from sending you messages in the future if you don’t want to avail of the service any longer.<br /><strong>NOTE:</strong> You can also use the link "Bookmarklet" given on <a href="http://www.ebookwatch.de/">www.ebookwatch.de</a>. If you use Firefox or Safari, click on "Install eBookWatch", click on and hold the link with the right-mouse button and drag it to the bookmark bar of the browser. This lets you add books that you want to keep an eye out for to eBookWatch.de from the Product information page of any book you look up on Amazon.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
When you are working with large Word documents, it often gets difficult to find the desired information and you may have to leaf through the complete document. Instead, to aid navigation and easily access required information, you can add cross-references. A cross-reference will act as a link that will point you directly to the referenced sub-head or section.<br />To add cross-references, click on the "References" tab. Here, you will find the option "Cross-reference" in the "Captions" section. Place the cursor next to where you want to add the cross-reference and click on "Cross-reference". You can provide a cross-reference to Numbered items, Headings, Bookmarks, Equations, Figures, Tables, etc. After you select the item you want to refer to, the dialogue will show you all the items.<br />For instance, if you select a "Numbered Item", then you will see all the items that are numbered in a list below. You should now select the item you want to refer to. Next you will have to select the information you want to insert in the document from the "Insert Reference to" box. Check the "Insert as hyperlink" box, as it will allow users to jump to the referenced item upon clicking the link. Click on "Insert" to complete the action. When you come across a cross-referenced marker in the document, hold down [Control] and then click on the hyperlink to go directly to the section of the document that is being referred to.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's very natural for the number of apps on your smartphone or tablet to increase after some time. To determine which apps require higher memory and CPU resources, you can download an app called "Usage Timelines", which you can find on the Play Store for free. You can also download the app "Pro CPU Monitor", but you'll have to pay Rs 126 for it. These apps show a list of the running apps and their current usage. Switch off the option "Start with system start" to avoid the app hogging resources every time you start your phone. Tap on the list entry to view a lot of information and to retrieve details. By using the "Display SysApps" option, you can examine hidden services. The option "Display time series" is quite interesting; it displays only a small symbol in the status bar that lets you see the CPU workload even when you have other apps open. This app lets you easily identify which actions or apps are responsible for high system load and so reduce the battery life. You must decide whether you really need a power-hungry app, and should get rid of such apps and look for alternatives.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Firefox tends to get sluggish after a period of time. The reason behind this could be the large number of extensions and add-ons that you may have installed. The memory used by these can considerably slow down your browser. There is a way to find out which extensions and add-ons hog resources. You will have to install an extension for that. You can install the extension from: addons. mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/aboutaddons- memory/. Click on "Add to Firefox" and confirm by clicking on ‘Install’. You will not need to restart the browser.<br />To check which extensions are hogging resources, type “about:addons-memory” in the address bar and hit [Enter]. It will list all the extensions that you have installed and the memory used by them. You can then get rid of the extensions that are hogging the resources. This tool is especially useful if you have too many add-ons installed in your browser.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The application utility Start Charming is a package of three small tools that improve how Windows 8's Modern UI and desktop view work. You can find it on this link: <a href="http://goo.gl/VzLCkw">http://goo.gl/VzLCkw</a>. The tool will<br />
install three programs—Charms Button, Charms Tray and Start Charming. Clicking the link “Start Charming” will activate the new mode, which will display the Modern UI with the Windows button<br />
as a configurable area on the desktop. Click the link “Stop Charming" to go back to the normal view. However, this display is a matter of taste and offers no real advantages. The buttons in the information area of the taskbar are useful for this. In order to keep it visible, click the small arrow next to the information area and select “Adjust”. Now select the entry “Displays symbols and information” and confirm the dialogue box by clicking “OK”. You can now click the permanently visible symbol to display the Charms bar on the desktop.</div>
