Make it Snow on your WordPress Blog

December 10, 2009 Leave a comment

There are many ways you can get into the holiday spirit, and a new way would be to add a little of snow to your wordpress blog. If you’re using a wordpress blog with the sub-domain “.wordpress.com” then all you have to do is-

1. Go to the dashboard

2. Go to your sidebar and click on appearance > extras.

3. Check the box that shows “Show falling snow on this blog”.

If you use wordpress with your own hosting service then-

1. Download the “Let it Snow” plugin here.

2. Activate it

So anyway, this is a great feature you should have on your wordpress blog for the holiday season, and I highly recommend your try it out.

Dropbox App Review

December 6, 2009 Leave a comment

Developer: Dropbox

Version Reviewed: 1.0

Price: Free

User Interface: 10/10

Stability: 10/10

Reuse/Replay: 10/10

Overall Score: 10/10

This app is something I’ve been looking for for a really long time, “Dropbox“. This app is definitely the easiest way to sync files online through computers and through your iPhone or iPod Touch. It’s simple, elegant, and extremely useful.

If you’re on a Wi-Fi or 3G network you can simply access or share files on the go with this app. You can share photos and videos by dropping them into a certain folder you’ve created via Dropbox. So for instance, me and a friend created a folder and when ever I drop something into that folder, he’ll receive it. You can share up to 2 gigabytes and upgrade your account if you want more space.

I really like how the developers integrated this into an iPhone app. Dropbox is broken down into three simple sections; “favorites, my dropbox, and settings”. Favorites is really just what files you’ve favored, so it’s pretty self-explanatory. “My Dropbox” is a list of the files you’ve created. All you need to do is click on a file and you have instant access to it. Lastly, there’s the settings section. What this section involves is details about your Dropbox account , and other basic information.

Overall, Dropbox is an amazingly simple to use file sharing app. It’s very stable, innovative, useful, and not to mention its free.
