Video Tutorials on HOW TOs with HowCast.com

How Tos are the most common questions people ask when they have to start something new.
There is a WikiHow that gives you textual answers for all of your "How To"s but here is a new startup that gives you your "How TO" answer visually. When I said visually, ofcourse it means video. Your "How To" videos. The site is called HowCast.com
The site got millions of hits within few weeks of its launch. Probably because it has ex-googler's name associated with it. There is already a similar site called Tutorialized.com where you get tutorials for everything. The site basically is an aggregator for the tutorials. People can submit tutorials, recommened tutorials or browse through the available tutorials.

Howcast is also a similar site but with the video tutorials instead of just text/image tutorials. Once you signup, you can browse the How to videos, suggest a topic for the how to video or can upload your own expert "How To" video.

I found HowCast pretty useful.So u guys give a try .. It s worth giving .. !!

FireTorrent : Firefox Extension for Downloading Torrents Without any external torrent client!

FireTorrent is Firefox Extension for all Torrent Lovers! While there are few extensions already out there on similar lines what makes this kool is its easy interface!

Can you imagine it is so easy that you don’t need any external application like µTorrent or bittorrent??

Just click on a torrent link and the downloading will start immediately.

#Features

* Nice Integration: This extension adds a separate Torrent tab to the Firefox’s built-in download manager. (see screenshot)

* Options: Provides option for selecting port nos, download/upload limit, location to save files, security & encryption configuration, etc! you can configure parameters like no. of connection, port no. to accept incoming connection, proxy settings, default folder, download/upload limit, etc! Everything like a standalone torrent client!

* Need More Info: If you like to see more info like no. of peers you are downloading from just click on more info link!

*Easy Access: Just click on folder name next to Downloaded to as highlighted in above screenshot and it will open the folder where downloaded files are saved!


In their own words…

The FireTorrent extension strives to offer the most user-friendly BitTorrent experience. We’ve integrated the torrents manager as a separate tab in your browser’s download manager, and torrents can be downloaded from any website with a single click.

This results in a great user experience and should be attractive to both people that are new to downloading torrents and advanced users.
click here to install FireTorrent Extension!

#Bonus: Just check out this start page from wyzo guys (developrers of above extension). It lets you search 33 engines with minimal effort. Just select your category (web, torrents, images, video, news, blogs or shopping) and you’ll find the top search engines in the dropdown menu. Conveniently, the most popular search engine is automatically selected for each category. May be its time to change your homepage! ;-)

So is this end of debate over superiority of different Torrent clients?

How Google Earth Works ??

Google Earth - Almost everyone of us is familiar with it .. we ve seen the satellite imageries of our college(SSNCE), !! and perhaps somebody of you could have had a pretty good look at their house even .. in google earth !!(How many ve seen ur house in google earth ??).Well , ever wondered how all these are possible .. ?? and how these work ?? (Nope ??) . Then , plunge into this article before something more attractive in the web distracts you ..(Yeah,i get distracted too much . My level of distraction in web is well above the observed limits of normal people .. Sounds too much ?? ) ..

Google Earth is currently available for download as a desktop application, although you need to be connected to the Internet to use it. Every time you open Google Earth, it automatically connects to Google's servers, giving you access to terabytes of geographical, political and social data. For instance, you can view a city with certain "layers" turned on, including topographical information, population data and crime statistics for the area. The layers and all of the map navigation buttons, including zoom, tilt and rotate, are all located in the Google Earth frame.

Google Earth comprises an array of features that would probably take months to fully utilize, the basic features fit loosely into the following categories:
Mapping/directions
Local search
Sightseeing

Let's find out where Google Earth gets its data.

Google Earth was once a premium program called Keyhole that cost about $90. When Google purchased Keyhole, it inherited terabytes of digital mapping data and set about creating a basic version of the software that would be available for free download. Now you're all caught up.

The photographic maps available on Google Earth come primarily from two sources: satellites and aircraft. Google gets this imagery and other digital mapping information from sources such as TeleAtlas and EarthSat, both of which compile photographs and maps into digital form for commercial applications. Because the data comes from different sources, it's provided at different resolutions, which is why some areas of the globe appear crisp even at street level while others are blurry from a great distance. Google is striving to have as much high definition coverage of the world as possible. When you use Google Earth, you're not viewing the imagery in real-time: according to Google, the information is no more than three years old and is continually updated as new data becomes available.

Google Earth has several countries like the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom covered to street level, meaning you can zoom in and view road names and local businesses and get directions from here to there. The database has a good amount of information on other regions like Western Europe, India and Japan as well, but the rest of the world is hit or miss. While you can zoom in and get a pretty good look at the Egyptian pyramids, you can't see street names or find a grocery store in the area. Google is constantly adding more information to its databases, though, and the maps are getting better with each update.

This brings us to another source of Google Earth's data: the Google search engine. Part of what makes Google Earth so addictive is its collaboration with Google search. When you're viewing a city, you can search for coffee shops, restaurants, grocery stores, bars and tons of other businesses in the vicinity, and you can click on them to get detailed information from the Google search engine. Users can also add a business location to a map by clicking on "Add/Edit a Business Listing" in the Google Earth toolbar.

RAID - Wat s it ???

In the last few years RAID has become really quite popular. Once purely in the domain of high-end enterprise servers, today, any self respecting enthusiast motherboard had better have onboard RAID if it wants to be taken seriously. The abundance of onboard RAID controllers mean that it’s not unusual to see small arrays in today’s home computers. The reasons for this can be for increased speed, increased reliability or simply for bragging rights. After all, two (or more) disks are better than one, right?

Depending on whom you ask, RAID can stand for either Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks or Redundant Array of Independent Disks. Technically, the former was the original name given to the use of arrays of more than one drive. The term ‘inexpensive’ was used as RAID was used as a substitute to proprietary disk solutions that, while they offered acceptable performance and fault tolerance, were prohibitively expensive.

RAID was a way to increase performance and add fault tolerance whilst using off-the-shelf disks, reducing costs greatly. There are many different types of RAID and each has their own strengths and drawbacks, no single level of RAID is ‘the best’ and it is important that one picks which RAID level best suits their particular situation.

The different types of RAID can offer a multitude of benefits, whether it’s for an oracle database being accessed by thousands of users simultaneously, for a high performance HD video workstation or simply for a home user storing photos. Each different case obviously has a different set of requirements, and a vastly different budget. Deciding on which level of RAID to use is always a balance between the pros and cons of each. The main aspects to consider are performance, redundancy and of course cost.

Some RAID levels are more focused on getting all out performance without bothering with redundancy, others provide redundancy as a foremost concern and performance can suffer accordingly. Certain types of RAID require a powerful hardware controller to give acceptable performance, resulting in high costs, whereas others can give adequate performance using a software solution.

So what exactly can RAID offer?

Increased Performance
There is a limit to the rate at which data can be read from or written to a hard disk platter. Unfortunately due to the mechanical construction of hard drives this limit is considerably slower than the rate at which data travels around every other part of a computer. The platters and actuators inside a hard drive can only move so fast and are bound to mechanical constraints and tolerances that solid state storage (i.e. ram) does not suffer from.

Most implementations of RAID offer increased performance over a single disk by reading from or writing to many disks at the same time. In theory, data can be retrieved from two disks in half the time as from a single disk, from eight disks four times as fast as from two disks and etcetera. Of course in practice this is not exactly true, as RAID controller overheads and calculations for redundancy slow down the process, but whether it’s an array of two disks or two thousand disks, RAID can certainly increase performance.

Data Security
Data security is the concept that an array can suffer the complete failure of one, or sometimes many hard drives and not lose any of the data contained on the array. This is done through data redundancy, i.e. some disk capacity is sacrificed for the sake of keeping extra data. Redundancy can be provided via mirroring, that is, a duplicate copy of all of the data is held through parity information, which we’ll come to later.

Data Availability
Data availability, not to be confused with data security, is when an array can sustain a disk failure with neither data loss nor interruption to service. While this feature may not be especially important to a home user, it can be vital to a business. Sometimes it’s simply not acceptable to shut down a service, a website for instance, simply to replace a failed disk. Data availability must include data security, but data security does not necessarily constitute data availability. Hot-swapping and hot-sparing are features implemented in many RAID controllers that allow recovery of a failed disk without taking the array offline.

Increased Capacity
When you need a lot of space on a single volume, sometimes the largest hard drives available are not large enough. If you wanted to record several hours of uncompressed 1080p video even the latest and greatest 1TB drive wouldn’t be large enough to hold all of that information. An array of several 500GB disks would not only create a single ‘drive’ with sufficient space, but would also be far cheaper per GB than the flagship 1TB models. It isn’t just necessarily extreme space requirements that can benefit from this. If you need an ultra high-performance database, it makes sense to use ultra high-performance drives. Currently 2.5” 15k RPM drives are the crème de la crème of high I/O performane, and you’re going to need more than one of them as the largest available is a mere 73GB.

Mount Wikipedia As A Virtual Filesystem

Thanks to WikipediaFS, Wikipedia fiends tired of reloading pages in the browser can now, provided they’re using Linux, mount the site as a virtual filesystem.

WikipediaFS is a mountable Linux virtual file system that enables you to view and edit Wikipedia (or any Mediawiki-based site) articles as if they were real files.

That means you can view and edit articles within your favorite text editor, which is much better equipped to that latter tasks than a browser window.

The Perfect Desktop - Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn

With the release of Microsoft's new Windows operating system (Vista), more and more people are looking for alternatives to Windows for various reasons. It has all software that people need to do the things they do on their Windows desktops. The advantages are clear: you get a secure system without DRM restrictions that runs also on older hardware, and the best thing is: all software comes free of charge.

This tutorial shows people who are willing to switch to Linux how they can set up a Linux desktop (Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn) that fully replaces their Windows desktop,

Access your Files Remotely using FolderShare

To keep track of all of my files across those various computers, I use a program called FolderShare [Windows/OS X].

FolderShare is a free download that, once installed on a computer, allows you to access that computer's files via a web-based interface:

What you need to do is download and install FolderShare on every computer you wish to have access to and assign it to an account you create once. Your account information is what all of your computers will use to verify that you have access to the files. In the above screenshot, you will see the two computers assigned to my kirupa account under Available Devices. From this view, you can select the particular computer you want, browse through your directories, and download the file/files that you want.

For example, whenever I am away from my main desktop, I can still download and have access to TV shows Media Center recorded for me

When you download files, the file is uploaded directly from your source computer. There is no intermediary that caches the files like you would see if you used an online disk storage service. The advantage of not using an intermediary is that you don't have to wait for the files to be sync'ed up with a 3rd party before you have access to them, but the downside is that your download speed is limited by your host computer's network upload speed. Of course, this also means that you have to have your computer powered on and logged in at all times.

Drawbacks aside, this is one of the better programs I have used over the years for allowing me to remotely access my files. Best of all, you don't have to have the FolderShare software installed on a computer to access your files. You just access the FolderShare web-site and download the files directly via your browser, for only the computers that need to be shared need FolderShare installed.

Cheers!

3G cell phone service

3G

For the past few years, cellular carriers and handset manufacturers have talked a lot about third-generation (3G) services for mobile phones. Despite all the talk, however, the companies haven't done a particularly good job of explaining what it all means. To many customers, the real meaning of 3G has been lost among promises of video features and zippy data speeds--promises that are only now beginning to live up to reality. Yet the question still remains: What exactly is 3G?
Simply put, 3G cellular technology will bring wireless broadband data services to your mobile phone. Boasting speeds from 144Kbps (roughly three times faster than a 56K dial-up modem connection) to 2.4Mbps (close to cable-modem speed), 3G networks let you speed through Web pages, enjoy streaming music video, watch on-demand video programming, download and play 3D games, and videoconference with your fellow chatterers. While the interface is undoubtedly different on a cell phone, the experience of surfing, downloading, and streaming stands to be very close to that of a broadband connection on a computer.

Sound good? Well, yes, it does. You'll pay for the services, of course, but stateside users have finally begun to catch up with their European and Asian counterparts. To date, three major carriers have introduced 3G services, and a solid assortment of 3G-enabled handsets are now available. Verizon Wireless was first to market in early 2005, followed by Sprint and most recently Cingular (T-Mobile is waiting until 2007). At present, you'll need to be in an urban area to really partake in 3G, but most carriers plan nationwide rollout eventually.

CONFIGURING BSNL ADSL CONNECTION IN LINUX

Introduction

This is a little how-to to configure an ADSL connection in Linux, mainly in Fedora, Debian or Ubuntu linux. I have assumed that you have already installed the distribution and that you have a LAN card in your computer which you are connecting to the router/modem.

Before I start the explanations, here is an excellent introduction to using a Desktop computer with Linux:
http://www.rootsecure.net/content/do..._userguide.pdf

In the steps, note that for your Dataone connection, you must use "username@dataone" as the username and your password. Note the absense of ".in" from the username; the username does NOT include this.

If you want to use your modem/router provided by your ISP (e.g. BSNL Dataone) in bridge mode, then you need a pppoe dialer in your OS. In Linux, the dialer is called pppoe dialer.

Connect your modem/router to your computer using a LAN cable (USB network connections are not reliable, stay away from them). In Linux, the LAN cards in your computer are named as eth0, eth1, etc. depending on which one is detected first. If you have only one LAN card, it will most probably be called eth0. If you have another, it will be eth1, and so on. If you have multiple cards, you need to find out which one is really eth0 and which one is really eth1 etc. (in Debian and Ubuntu, the configuration script will automatically detect the card which is connected to your ADSL modem/router). You can use trial and error to find this out.


* Account Setup:
Before doing the connection setup, you need:
a) your BSNL username and password (assume it is mintu@dataone <== there is no ".in" here!).
B) DNS nameservers provided to you by BSNL guys (assume this is 61.1.128.5, 61.0.0.5).



-------------------------------------
Debian/Ubuntu
-------------------

In Debian based distros (e.g. Ubuntu), you may use either the pppoeconf package.

This can be installed from the installation CDs or DVD. On my computer, running Debian Etch, I have these packages installed for my ADSL connection:
$> dpkg -l ppp* | grep ^ii
ii ppp 2.4.4rel-4 Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) daemon
ii pppconfig 2.3.15 A text menu based utility for configuring pp
ii pppoe 3.8-1.1 PPP over Ethernet driver
ii pppoeconf 1.12 configures PPPoE/ADSL connections
ii pppstatus 0.4.2-8 console-based PPP status monitor

Once you have the package installed, you use the pppoeconf command as root to do the setup. This script will automatically detect which interface in your computer is connected to the router/modem, and will continue and will ask you for the usename (our exampe: mintu@dataone), password and nameservers. It will ask you for MTU, leave it at 1452 (for pppoe connections, max can be 1492, IIRC). After the setup, you give the command:
#> pon dsl-provider
to start the connection, and
#> poff dsl-provider
to stop the connection.

This page has screenshots of the pppoeconf command and the setup in Debian:
http://users.pandora.be/Asterisk-PBX/PPPoE.htm
This is a Ubuntu web site for these instructions:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE

You can also install the pppstatus package. It shows you the stats for your ppp connection (data speed, connection time, etc.) in a terminal. It is pretty neat really.


-------------------------
Fedora
---------
In Fedora, you may use either the Network GUI or the rp-pppoe-gui package.

Network GUI Method:
- In Fedora, go to: Desktop --> Administration --> Network, OR, just type the command "system-config-network" the shell prompt to get the same GUI (both of these methods will ask for root password). The window you will get will have title of "Network Configuration".
- From the toolbar of this new window, click on "New" button. You will get a window with title "Add new Device Type".
- In this new windoe, choose xDSL connection, click "Forward" and follow the prompt. It will ask you for the provider name (type anything. e.g. BSNL Dataone), your connection username (mintu@dataone in our example) and password.
- Once setup is complete, to test the connection, go back to the "Network Configuration" window (or open it again as specified in the first point above), and select the new connection and click on Activate button in the toolbar. Wait a few seconds and give the following commands in a terminal:
$> ping 4.2.2.2
$> ping google.com

The first one if successfuly, will prove that the internet connection is working, the second one, if successful, will prove that your DNS nameserves are also working.

Then make sure that the device will become automatically active when the computer boots up by selecting this connection in the network configuration window and by editing its profile and by checking the option that tells the device to activate on boot ups. Also, give normal users the option of controlling this device.

- To disconnect, select the Deactivate button from the network configuration window.

This website also lists this method of configuring your ADSL connection on Fedora (with screenshots link at the bottom of the page):
http://www.geocities.com/imdeemvp/dsl.html



rp-pppoe-gui Method:
rp-pppoe-gui package helps setup the adsl connection. You can installed this package by using the following command (if you are already connected to the internet; yes, I know this is a catch-22 situation, but please bear with me. Think about is, you could be able to connect using the modem/router in pppoe mode instead of using it in bridge mode!):
#> yum install rp-pppoe-gui

If you do not have connectivity when installing this package, then the best thing to do is to install it from your Fedora installation CD or DVD. Another option is to get the rpm file of the package from a friend and try to install that. This is done, as root, with teh command:
#> rpm -Uvh rp-pppoe-gui

(but I recommend the yum method or the method of installation from CD or DVD of Fedora).

Once you have the package, we can proceed as follows. Here is an example session of how the ads-setup command works:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
#> adsl-set
Welcome to the ADSL client setup.� First, I will run some checks on

your system to make sure the PPPoE client is installed properly...

LOGIN NAME

Enter your Login Name (default root): mintu@dataone

INTERFACE

Enter the Ethernet interface connected to the ADSL modem
For Solaris, this is likely to be something like /dev/hme0.
For Linux, it will be ethX, where 'X' is a number.
(default eth0): if you have only one LAN card, just press ENTER to accept the default

Do you want the link to come up on demand, or stay up continuously?
If you want it to come up on demand, enter the idle time in seconds
after which the link should be dropped.� If you want the link to
stay up permanently, enter 'no' (two letters, lower-case.)
NOTE: Demand-activated links do not interact well with dynamic IP
addresses. You might have some problems with demand-activated links.

Enter the demand value (default no):just press ENTER to accept the default

DNS

Please enter the IP address of your ISP's primary DNS server.
If your ISP claims that 'the server will provide dynamic DNS addresses', enter 'server' (all lower-case) here.
If you just press enter, I will assume you know what you are doing and not modify your DNS setup.
Enter the DNS information here: 61.1.128.5
Please enter the IP address of your ISP’s secondary DNS server.
If you just press enter, I will assume there is only one DNS server.
Enter the secondary DNS server address here: 61.0.0.5


PASSWORD
enter your BSNL password here, twice
Please enter your Password:
Please re-enter your Password:

USERCTRL

Please enter 'yes' (two letters, lower-case.) if you want to allow normal user to start or stop DSL connection (default yes):

FIREWALLING

Please choose the firewall rules to use. Note that these rules are very basic. You are strongly encouraged to use a more sophisticated firewall setup; however, these will provide basic security. If you are running any servers on your machine, you must choose 'NONE' and set up firewalling yourself. Otherwise, the firewall rules will deny access to all standard servers like Web, e-mail, ftp, etc. If you are using SSH, the rules will block outgoing SSH connections which allocate a privileged source port.

The firewall choices are:

0 - NONE: This script will not set any firewall rules. You are responsible
for ensuring the security of your machine. You are STRONGLY
recommended to use some kind of firewall rules.
1 - STANDALONE: Appropriate for a basic stand-alone web-surfing workstation
2 - MASQUERADE: Appropriate for a machine acting as an Internet gateway
for a LAN

Choose a type of firewall (0-2): 0

Start this connection at boot time

Do you want to start this connection at boot time?
Please enter no or yes (default no): yes
** Summary of what you entered **


Ethernet Interface: eth0

User name: mintu@dataone
Activate-on-demand: No
Primary DNS: 61.1.128.5
Secondary DNS: 61.0.0.5
Firewalling: NONE
User Control: yes
Accept these settings and adjust configuration files (y/n)? y

Adjusting /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0
Adjusting /etc/ppp/chap-secrets and /etc/ppp/pap-secrets
(But first backing it up to /etc/ppp/chap-secrets.bak)
(But first backing it up to /etc/ppp/pap-secrets.bak)

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

After this, you can just enter "adsl-start" to start the connection (as a normal user) and "adsl-stop" to end the connection. It is that simple.
Summary:
From the ads-setup script questions, you just need to give this info:
- dataone username
- interface: accept default (eth0) if you have only one interface. otherwise, give the name of the interface to which you have connected your modem/router's cable to your computer
- dial on demand: no
- dataone DNS nameserver
- dataone password
- normal users' user control: yes
- Firewalling: 0
- Use connection at startup: yes


Now, give the "adsl-start" command as normal user and verify your connection is working. Wait a few seconds and give the command:
$> /sbin/route -n

It should list a routing table. Then try:
$> ping 4.2.2.2
$> ping google.com
The first ping test will show if your internet connection is working, the second will prove that your DNS nameservers are also working.

To stop the connection, use:
$> adsl-stop

To see the status of the connection, use:
$> adsl-status


That is it. Linux rocks!!


Good luck.
