Displaying Folder Size In Windows Explorer

Windows XP does not provide any method to display folder size in file-explorer, the only method to get the folder-size is to Right-click and select Properties, Folder Size is a nice little free utility to solve this problem, the utility adds a new "Folder Size" column to Windows Explorer displaying size of every folder.


Folder Size works in background calculating and caching the results for faster retrieval later, the service consumes around 5MB RAM and does not slow down your machine.


To install and use Folder Size :

1. Download Folder Size From Official Page.
2. Install it and Open Windows Explorer.
3. Open View menu and click "Choose Details".


4. Check "Folder Size" column and click OK to close the dialog-box.


5. Now, you will be able to see Folder Size column in Explorer Details view.

Add Open Target Folder Option To Windows Explorer Context Menu

At times we need to open the target folder location of a shortcut, in Windows Vista you just need to right-click and choose "Open file location", but in-case of windows XP you need to - right-click the shortcut -> select Properties and then click "Find Target", However, to achieve the Vista type context menu option in Windows XP, simple install this handy OpenTarget shell extension (52.4 KB).

Easily Rename File-Extension From Shell Menu

Although not often but at times we need to change a file-extension and going the usual way of selecting the last three letters and renaming it is not one of the most efficient way to do so, new Windows explorer shell-extension "Change File Extension Shell Menu" takes the pain out of the process by providing a much simpler file extension renaming functionality right from right-click context menu.


The free open-source shell extension supports Windows XP/Vista/Windows 7 and is definitely worth installing if you happen to rename file-extensions.

Introducing the Google Chrome OS

It's been an exciting nine months since we launched the Google Chrome browser. Already, over 30 million people use it regularly. We designed Google Chrome for people who live on the web — searching for information, checking email, catching up on the news, shopping or just staying in touch with friends. However, the operating systems that browsers run on were designed in an era where there was no web. So today, we're announcing a new project that's a natural extension of Google Chrome — the Google Chrome Operating System. It's our attempt to re-think what operating systems should be.

Google Chrome OS is an open source, lightweight operating system that will initially be targeted at netbooks. Later this year we will open-source its code, and netbooks running Google Chrome OS will be available for consumers in the second half of 2010. Because we're already talking to partners about the project, and we'll soon be working with the open source community, we wanted to share our vision now so everyone understands what we are trying to achieve.

Speed, simplicity and security are the key aspects of Google Chrome OS. We're designing the OS to be fast and lightweight, to start up and get you onto the web in a few seconds. The user interface is minimal to stay out of your way, and most of the user experience takes place on the web. And as we did for the Google Chrome browser, we are going back to the basics and completely redesigning the underlying security architecture of the OS so that users don't have to deal with viruses, malware and security updates. It should just work.

Google Chrome OS will run on both x86 as well as ARM chips and we are working with multiple OEMs to bring a number of netbooks to market next year. The software architecture is simple — Google Chrome running within a new windowing system on top of a Linux kernel. For application developers, the web is the platform. All web-based applications will automatically work and new applications can be written using your favorite web technologies. And of course, these apps will run not only on Google Chrome OS, but on any standards-based browser on Windows, Mac and Linux thereby giving developers the largest user base of any platform.


Google Chrome OS is a new project, separate from Android. Android was designed from the beginning to work across a variety of devices from phones to set-top boxes to netbooks. Google Chrome OS is being created for people who spend most of their time on the web, and is being designed to power computers ranging from small netbooks to full-size desktop systems. While there are areas where Google Chrome OS and Android overlap, we believe choice will drive innovation for the benefit of everyone, including Google.

We hear a lot from our users and their message is clear — computers need to get better. People want to get to their email instantly, without wasting time waiting for their computers to boot and browsers to start up. They want their computers to always run as fast as when they first bought them. They want their data to be accessible to them wherever they are and not have to worry about losing their computer or forgetting to back up files. Even more importantly, they don't want to spend hours configuring their computers to work with every new piece of hardware, or have to worry about constant software updates. And any time our users have a better computing experience, Google benefits as well by having happier users who are more likely to spend time on the Internet.


We have a lot of work to do, and we're definitely going to need a lot of help from the open source community to accomplish this vision. We're excited for what's to come and we hope you are too. Stay tuned for more updates in the fall and have a great summer.

Letter to Employees

Dear Employees,

Due to the current financial situation caused by the slowdown in the economy, Management has decided to implement a scheme to put workers of 50 years of age and above on early retirement.

This scheme will be known as RAPE (Retire Aged People Early).

Persons selected to be RAPED can apply to management to be considered for the SHAFT scheme (Special Help After Forced Termination).

Persons who have been RAPED and SHAFTED will be reviewed under the SCREW programme (Scheme Covering Retired-Early Workers).

A person may be RAPED once, SHAFTED twice and SCREWED as many times as Management deems appropriate.

Persons who have been RAPED could get AIDS (Additional Income for Dependants & Spouse) or HERPES (Half Earnings for Retired Personnel Early Severance).

Obviously persons who have AIDS or HERPES will not be SHAFTED or SCREWED any further by Management.

Persons who are not RAPED and are staying on will receive as much SHIT(Special High Intensity Training) as possible. Management has always prided itself on the amount of SHIT it gives employees.

Should you feel that you do not receive enough SHIT, please bring this to the attention of your Supervisor, who has been trained to give you all the SHIT you can handle.

Sincerely,

Management

PS
Due to recent budget cuts and the rising cost of electricity, gas and oil,as well as current market conditions, the Light at the End of the Tunnel has been turned off. We apologize for the inconvenience

New Firefox Extension 'Cluster Tabs' Promises Efficient Way To Get Rid Of Tab Overload

Tab overload and its performance impact on system is a big annoyance most Firefox users experience, While there have been Firefox extensions like TooManyTabs to get rid of this tab-overload but none actually addressed the problem in a more practical way then the brand new Firefox addon Cluster Tabs for Firefox does, the addon allows users to easily create and save group of Firefox tabs as clusters unloading them from memory allowing easy retrieval later-on.



The best part is that every cluster has a unique anonymous cluster URL which can be shared with friends and published on internet like this.

Cluster Tabs for Firefox Features :

* Tabs held within a cluster tab stop using memory resulting in faster performance.
* Tabs within a cluster tab retain history which means that you can carry on from where you left off. Close any tab and it will return to the cluster tab it came from.
* Your history is private.??History in tabs within Cluster URLs is retained in your browser only. No one sees anyone else’s history.
* When you add or remove tabs from a cluster you did not create yourself, a copy is made for you and a new clusterURL is spun out into the web.
* No sign up, simply install and go. Cluster tabs for Firefox and clusterurl.com are anonymous and free.

You can install Cluster Tabs from our Power User firefox addon collection here.

Microsoft Bangladesh introduces DST

Microsoft Bangladesh announced a patch based fix to address the Day Light Saving Time (DST), which is supposed to be effective in Bangladesh from June 19th at 11PM on Monday. This fix can be downloaded from Microsoft's corporate website by going to here and will be applicable to Computers running on Microsoft operating systems like Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2003.

Users have to download the .msi file from the given website, run it and then choose "(GMT+06:00) DHAKA" option from the "Time Zone Settings" instead of "Astana, Dhaka" and check on the "AUTOMATICALLY ADJUST CLOCK FOR DAY LIGHT SAVING TIME" to enable DST. This would automatically adjust the clock on June 19th at 11PM from when the DST would be effective.

Source : IT Report [The New Nation]

An optional update is available to update the Daylight Saving Time for Bangladesh for the year 2009 for Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 based computers

Problem description
According to an announcement from the Bangladesh government, the Bangladesh cabinet has decided to advance Bangladesh Standard Time by one hour from 23:00:00 June 19th to save electricity during evening peak hours. The clock will move one hour forward at 23:00:00 on June 19th. No DST end date has been announced yet. There was no DST for Bangladesh prior to this announcement.

Please be aware that if the government of Bangladesh determines an end date for DST after this KB has been published, that DST End date will not be reflected in this Microsoft Fix it solution.

More Information
This update creates a separate time zone for Bangladesh with the following DST setting:

* DST starts at 23:00:00 on June 19th, 2009
* DST ends at 23:00:00 on December 31st, 2009*

* Note The TZI value in the registry requires DST end date and time, thus Dec 31st, 2009 is set for now until future changes overwrite it.

This Fix it Solution adds the following to the Time zone: drop down in Date and Time settings: (GMT +06:00) Dhaka in addition to (GMT +06:00) Astana, Dhaka.

To have us update the DST for Bangladesh for you, go to the "Fix it for me" section. To update the DST for Bangladesh yourself, go to the "Let me fix it myself" section.

Fix it for me
To update the DST for Bangladesh automatically, do the following:

1. Click the Fix it button or link. Click Run in the File Download dialog box, and then follow the steps in the Fix it wizard.

Fix this problem [MicrosoftFixit50280.msi]


2. After the Fix it Solution is applied you must set your time zone to (GMT +06:00) Dhaka in the Date and Time settings in the Control Panel for your machine to use the new DST settings.

Note This Fix it solution works for all languages. However, for some languages, the wizard text may be in English.

Note If you are not on the computer that has the problem, save the Fix it solution to a flash drive or to a CD, and then run it on the computer that has the problem.

Next, go to the "Did this fix the problem?" section.

Let me fix it myself
