June 30, 2008 playtom 1 comment

Forums are not a personal necessity even though many people have them for whatever random reasons. In today’s worldwideweb, you’ll likely encounter one of them whether it be regarding hobbies, sports, entertainment and such. Forumup.org is therefore here to provides its users with a rich set of features to set up their own personal forums at no cost whatsoever. Despite the occasional ads, it still proves to be one of the best of its kind with over 50 language support and hundreds of styles to decorate your space. It also has a powerful search system, private messaging ability, etc. What’s more, you don’t need to have any kind of programming knowledge to be able to make your own forum, making it truly fool-proof.

Macros might just be easier than you think

June 19, 2008 playtom Leave a comment

Most people in today’s world have no knowledge of what the word “Macro” means. But in case you were a bit confused about what macroing is, the most common one are keystroke and mouse macros. AutoHotKey can create macro scripts to modify mouse clicks and keystrokes to perform different actions on your computer. You can change CTRL+C to perform the functions “cut” instead of “copy”, and also transform abbreviations such as “btw” into full phrases such as “by the way”. In addition, the easy to use recording function and excellent documentation will have any new users started to playing around with this in no time. Although this program can do way more than just some simple tweakings, being the casual users like we all are, most of us would be perfectly satisified with just its standard features.

Humour, articles, videos and more

June 11, 2008 playtom Leave a comment

Whether you like humour or not, it is very likely you will encounter some sites of that kind on the internet. Some are good, and others are just plain crappy, but the latter obviously isn’t the case with cracked.com. First started as a humour magazine in 1958, Cracked has migrated to the net and now holds one of the largest collection of funny videos, articles, links, etc. It’s updated frequently throughout the day, so you won’t be bored as long as your fingers are on the mouse button. Citing that as a reference, there is also a large fanbase dedicated to submitting materials everyday for others to enjoy, a definite plus in the current times where viewers are looking more than editorial publishings.
