Gnomefiles Firefox search plugin !

Great news out there! I use Gnomefiles a lot to search cool new GNOME apps to use for my day-to-day work, and some of them are really useful to me! But today, out of boredom and extra free time, I’ve created firefox plugin for gnomefiles. And It works great!
gnomefiles

For the uninitiated, GnomeFiles is a software repository which list GTK+/GNOME application exclusively. The website lists applications (in source or binary form) created for the GNOME Desktop and also all GTK+ applications (Unix/Linux/Windows & SkyOS). The website also list application which uses Gnome/GTK+ bindings such as wxWidgets, pyGTK, GTK#, Java SWT, perl-GTK2, ruby-GTK, etc.

It integrate itself to your search engine pull down menu at the upper-right corner where Google search engine is the default, and you can start searching for gnome apps right from inside of your browser (i.e no need to type/memorise Gnomefiles url, etc).

So get your
GnomeFiles Firefox search plugin now!

How to get USB Drive for less than RM20 (USD 5)

o you own a mobile phone that uses RS-MMC, DV RS-MMC or mini-SD card?

Have you recently upgraded your phone’s memory card? What happened to the old memory card that came with the phone? Do you keep it in some drawer, give it to a friend? or just manage to lose it somehow?

Well today I would like to share with you something that I’ve done with an excess 64MB DV RS MMC card that I own.


  

All you need is to get portable memory card reader, I use the one produced by Edge (http://www.edge.net.my), you can get it from your local computer store or Lelong for RM12-18. The memory card supports RS MMC/DV RS MMC/SD/Mini SD card, and its surely flexible, the memory card didn’t fell off the slot even when I carried it everywhere.

      

Already bought one? Then insert the DV RS MMC (without adapter) to the card reader and voila! You’ve a USB drive for a cost less than RM20 (that’s USD 5 for comparison). Heh, It’s even supported on my Ubuntu Linux.

Portable Card Reader

So keep this in mind the next time you’re upgrading your mobile phone memory card.

Introducing my new cooperative blog – #fakap community speaks

Introducing #fakap community blog, a blog that does not focus on a single topic but rather as a medium to voice out opinions and feelings of #fakap online community.

The blog also doubles as a news website that is frequently updated by a team of bloggers from #fakap community. #fakap community is mainly consist of frequent irc users in webchat.org and dal.net irc networks. Most of them are regular pc end-users , which makes the blog more interesting since we are reading what an average end-user would say about a particular product.

You may find that #fakap community speaks is a bit harsher than the usual blog that I maintain because it is designed to make people think of the harsher reality of lives. I wish to snap people out from their dream, out from wasting their valueable money to giant corporations, I’ll try to snap them out from it, *only* if they would help themselves.
So, hope that you enjoy reading #fakap community blog as I’m one of the bloggers there :p
