Bins - Taskbar Organizer for Windows

What do you think about this picture?

Noticed there are 2 groups of taskbar icons? Nice? I can group even more groups, just that I don't think I have too many taskbar now after moving all the browsers into one group.

This software is made by the people that made ObjectDock, DellDock, and Fences. Bins is the software.

Unfortunately, it works for Windows 7 only (all version). Sorry for Windows XP and Vista.

After you install it and proper setup done, just drag the taskbar to the another that you want to group them. If you wish to un-group one of them, just drag it out of the group. That's it, very simple!
And since it is beta, so do expect some bugs.

And now my taskbar is much more cleaner because I always open more than 20 applications at same time.

Where can you get it?
Bins
Get it now, because it is still in beta and it is free! So be fast.
I think they will start charging when it goes to official release.

How do I speed up my blog loading time

If you have noticed, this blog has been loading very slow since few weeks ago. And some of the people come to this blog just leave because it is taking forever to load! (Actually it took more than 20 seconds for some text to appear, that is very very slow for time like this). However I have found the problematic code that causing the slowness. Now it should be loading fine. :)

Here is what happen:
1. Start notice loading of this blog become very slow on beginning of Jul 2011.
2. Suspect streamyx issue, check out on other networks, but still slow.
3. Tried IE (super slow as usual), Maxthon, Chrome, Firefox, RockMelt and Safari, this blog still loading slow on all  these browsers. So this is not browser problem.
4. Moved "Stop Child Abuse" and "STOP LYNAS!" to a page called Community service, still slow, but keeping these in one page is good, makes this blog looks cleaner.
5. Moved cbox, shoutbox, weibo to another page, but still slow.
6. Have a thought of might be the pages listed below the header, so moved them to end of posting, not helping, so move it back to under the header.
7. I google around and found Yahoo! YSlow add on for FireFox and Chrome, installed the add-on on Chrome, check out the this blog, found some possible problems, but couldn't do much because some of the widget on my blog is default from blogger.
8. Then I found Pingdom Tool, this website can show me the loading time of each java script, page, and image. And from this tool that I found where is the problem. It is actually some link website by yahoo previously and with the website down, all browser that trying to load my blog will wait for it until time out for about 20 to 30 seconds. After remove that code, my blog loading time go back to normal.

This is the pingdom result before I remove the problematic code:

 This is after, the loading time is reduced to less than 10 seconds.

This is the history of each test, there was a 3.66 seconds that before problematic code being remove, I think that is incorrect, probably the test did not finish. Anyway, you can see on 19 Jul, the loading time reduced to less than 10 seconds.

That is the best website tool I ever encounter, you can also use it to debug your blog/website. :)

Okay, so now you no longer have to wait for a long time for this blog to load. Enjoy!

Away from this blog

I will be away from this blog from July 28 to Aug 3, taking some time off from work and blogging. Not really go for vacation (example Bali), but still will be out of town and with minimum connectivity to internet. If still connected all the time, then it is not really a vacation right? :)
But anyway, if I can get some free Wifi connection, probably will login to twitter and Facebook, but not blogger, coz blogger is not friendly to smartphone.

I will still have new posting everyday, because I have already wrote them, or to be exact, copy and paste from somewhere. :P Here is how to post blog post in later date and time:
http://outdatedpenanguncle.blogspot.com/2010/03/how-to-post-blog-post-in-later-date-and.html

iUser for iPad - multi users login - jailbreak require

Note this: jailbreak require to enable this apps or feature. If you don't want to do jailbreak, go buy another iPad. :P

Okay, back to this iUser.

Apple created iPad for individual only and not for family, so what if you want to share the iPad but don't want to have each user interfere others user setting such as safari bookmark, twitter account, facebook login, etc? The quick way is to buy another iPad, but this could break the bank account for some of the family. 90/10 rules says that 90% of the wealth in this world control/own by 10% of people in this world. You see what I mean? :)

With this iUser, you can have multi users login, just like Windows! Who said Windows sucks? :P



This apps is now available at Cydia [jailbreak source! :) ]

Lazy monday

Monday again. Blue? Do you still using hotmail or Windows live account? Skydrive is online storage I am using now. Just to store all the cab files that I used install on my very outdated HTC Touch (this is windows mobile!). If you don't know what is Windows Mobile, there is nothing to miss, just forget it. :D

okay, skydrive, login to your hotmail or windows live account and look for skydrive on left top and start upload your files that you don't mind if people would steal it. This mean do not store your file that you put all your online account password. Just the files that you want to keep but don't want to waste your hard disk or external hard disk.


Have a nice week ahead!

update: btw, skydrive is 25G of disk space! Not a lot to some of us, but it is still a lot of files you can store there. :)

Ashampoo Home Designer, Snap 3 And Anti-Malware for free!

Ashampoo is giving out Home Designer, Snap3 and Anti-Malware for free. Not sure how long this will last but I have already downloaded Home Designer and Snap3. I have my preferred Anti-Malware, so no need to download Ashampoo's Anti-Malware.

Personally I have tried Home Designer before. These are some skills to master, but after that you can do your own home design in 3D! And do it in 3D is totally different than do it in 2D/paper. You have different perspective view and you can really have a good feeling of the home design you always wanted.

As for Snap3, I just gonna try it out to see any special. This is because I already have freeware to do video capture on my PC. Why not just try out because it is free! :)

The normal price for these software is $39 (US dolar) each!, so why not save yourself some money and download them from the link below. :)
