Managing multiple hard drives can be quite a nightmare, I have a 500 GB Lacie external HDD, a 40 GB portable and a 8 GB pen drive in addition to my 250 GB internal HDD on my laptop.

In total I have 2 drives on my computer and 5 external drives, viewing information for all those drives is not possible without manually clicking on the drive and checking the properties. This is where DriveSpacio is hugely useful.

“Images say a thousand words”. There is not a more truthful saying than this, images do increase the charm of your post and make your posts look more meaningful. We have even talked about this in our post 6 Tips to make a good blog post better.

That said finding images is not a easy task and to top it finding images that does not have any copyrights on them is a bigger task.

You can use Flickr of course to find such images but there is no dedicated search engine for finding such images. Well don’t fret because I am going to point you to a dedicated search engine which allows you to find Free stock photo for your site which you can use without any hassles and worries about licensing.

Ok everyone its Friday and time to start your weekend with a good laugh, the logics below are purely for fun with all pun intended. Go ahead have your share of laughs.

If your father is a poor man,
it is your fate but,
if your father-in-law is a poor man,
it’s your stupidity.

I was born intelligent -
education ruined me.

Practice makes perfect…..
But nobody’s perfect….. .
so why practice?

If it’s true that we are here to help others,
then what exactly are the others here for?

Since light travels faster than sound,
people appear bright until you hear them speak.

How come “abbreviated” is such a long word?

Money is not everything.
There’s Mastercard & Visa.

Behind every successful man, there is a woman
And behind every unsuccessful man, there are two.

Every man should marry.
After all, happiness is not the only thing in life.

The wise never marry.
and when they marry they become otherwise.

Never put off the work till tomorrow
what you can put off today.

“Your future depends on your dreams”
So go to sleep.

“Hard work never killed anybody”
But why take the risk

“Work fascinates me”
I can look at it for hours.

God made relatives;
Thank God we can choose our friends.

The more you learn, the more you know.
The more you know, the more you forget.
The more you forget, the less you know.
So.. why learn.

A bus station is where a bus stops.
A train station is where a train stops.
On my desk, I have a work station….
what more can I say……..

Have fun folks its Friday get your best clothes on and get ready to party.

As you may already know I am big fan of putty due to its ability to allow me to connect to Unix based machines and work with them right from the comfort of my desktop, if I dig further I am also a big fan of Cygwin a Unix emulator for Windows which users to work on a Unix like environment right within Windows.

Talking about remote connections to external machines putty and Windows Remote Desktop are the two softwares I use almost 80% of my day at work as a Software Engineer but having to connect to multiple machines at the same time means more windows to manage and more mess of my taskbar even though I use two monitors to work.

The above code is just a simplification of what I meant to say, the more content you write on your blog, the more are your chances to influence search results.

It has not been a secret bug a single blog however unknown it may be can make a software popular and bring it from the top position to the someplace it never envisioned to ever be in.

If your wondering why I am saying this is because of this, where I rank way above Microsoft for a usual query you would first contact them for. There are many more which I can post about here ;).

So write down this definition and start blogging with the mantra (code) a BLOG = Better Listing on Google = Better Exposure for others = Better Explanation of the product.

BTW I put up a new sidebar and if you want me to write more about blogging or anything else under the world let me know your suggestions. I am open to launching a microsite for whatever topics you want me to write about.
