• 4 Ways To Repair WinRAR Error Files     Everyday, I got a thousand comments of visitor about CRC Error of file *.rar. But getting this error not mean that you can't extract and use file anymore. There are many ways and software help you repair this error and use these files again.
        WinRAR Error (mostly CRC Error) often happen when you extract a very large file or extract multi files (named part01.rar, part02.rar...). If you get this error when extract multi files, first you need to know exactly which file is error. When extracting, WinRAR Diagnostic Message will show all files that getting error and what error is.You must remember name of error files to fix it.

  • Yahoo! Messenger 10 Final (10.0.0.1102) - Offline Installer + Portable for Download The Yahoo Messenger team has released the long awaited Yahoo Messenger 10 final. The popular instant messenger was previously only available in beta versions with many of them leaked and not officially released by Yahoo. The new Yahoo Messenger 10 can be downloaded directly from the Yahoo Messenger website where it is available for Microsoft Windows and Apple Macintosh, mobile devices, Apple’s iPhone and as a web version that does not require installation at all.

    Several new and improved features have been added to Yahoo Messenger 10. The following list contains some of these features. It has been directly taken from the blog post that announced the final version of Yahoo Messenger 10:

    High-quality video calls
    We’ve completely redesigned our 1:1 webcam feature (under the hood too). Now you can make a high-quality video call to a friend with synched audio, right in the IM window. Features include the ability to swap video windows, position the video windows side-by-side, mute the call or place it on hold. You can even go full-screen with your video call. To get started, click the new “Video Call” button in the IM window (your friend also needs to be on Yahoo! Messenger 10). New “Y! Updates” view of your contact list
    People are busy these days, doing all sorts of interesting things online. To help you keep up with your friends, we added an alternate view of your contact list that shows a real-time stream of their updates, including Messenger status message changes. If they’ve opted-in to share their updates via Yahoo!, you’ll be able to see what they’re saying on Twitter, reading on Yahoo! Buzz, listening to on last.fm, and more.
    We also added additional features for how and when you see your friends’ updates. When a new update comes in, a “toast” alert will pop up in the lower right corner of your screen. If you want to disable these, go to Messenger > Preferences > Yahoo! Updates. You can turn alerts on and off and even update preferences by contact or by type of update.

    Yahoo! Messenger 10 Final (10.0.0.1102) - Offline Installer + Portable for Download

    Find more to chat about
    Within the new “Yahoo! Updates” view, you’re sure to find more to talk about with your friends. To make it easy, we added a hover menu that lets you quickly IM a friend about their update. When you do, the update appears inline in the conversation window, so when you start your IM with “I can’t believe you like this song!”, your friend will know what you’re talking about. Note that your friend needs to also be on Yahoo! Messenger 10 to see the update inline.
    Change your language easily
    If you use the U.S. version but wish it could be in your local language, you’re in luck. When you start up Yahoo! Messenger 10, you’ll notice a new language menu on the sign-in screen. Choose from 16 different languages and the buttons, menus and various parts of the interface will change to that language. If you’re already signed in, you can also change your language under Messenger > Preferences > Language (you’ll have to restart Yahoo! Messenger for it to take effect).

     
    The default Yahoo Messenger 10 download will download a so called web installer which is a small setup file that will try to download the remaining data from the Internet during installation. This requires an active Internet connection. Users who prefer a direct download can download the Yahoo Messenger 10 Windows offline installer here. It is either way recommended to do a custom installation in the instant messenger itself to avoid installing components like the Yahoo Toolbar to the computer system.

  • New StumbleUpon v4 - Simpler, Searchable and More Social     StumbleUpon is a social bookmarking that help you bookmark all websites include thumbnail. With toolbar for browser, you can easily save and share any site that you visited. Today, StumbleUpon is now completely switching from old to new verison, StumbleUpon v4. New StumbleUpon has a new interface, which is believed that simpler, searchable and more social.

    New StumbleUpon v4 - Simpler, Searchable and More Social
    StumbleUpon Homepage
    New StumbleUpon v4 - Simpler, Searchable and More Social
    StumbleUpon Activity
    What New?

    Simpler:

    Our goal was to make the site and the StumbleUpon Add-on easier to use and more intuitive for visitors and users.  We’ve improved site navigation, and navigation within User Profiles, to make it easier and faster to find what you’re looking for. We also think it just looks a lot nicer. smile

    Searchable:

    We’ve enhanced Search using community ratings and reviews.   Now you’ll have the ability to Search either within your favorites, your friend’s favorites, or the entire site to discover more specific pages on a topic.

    More Social:

    We’ve made it easier for you to find the people you know (your real-life friends) on StumbleUpon and have made it possible to find people who have similar interests that live close to you.  Plus, you can get nearly real-time updates from the people you are subscribed to, served in your Recent Activity page (formerly What’s New).

    To access the new StumbleUpon from your current Profile page, go to http://www.stumbleupon.com/trynow/. We are planning to permanently transition to the new StumbleUpon in the next month and will send more gentle reminders as the date draws near.

    Relationship:


    There are 3 types of relationships in the New StumbleUpon:

    1. Your Subscriptions = people that you subscribed to. They are people whose content you are interested in (much like a subscription to a magazine). Their favorites and reviews will populate your “Recent Activity” page. Their content will influence the quality of your stumbles.
    2. Your Subscribers = people who subscribed to you. They like your content and want to see things you discover and review on their “Recent Activity” page. Your favorites will influence their stumbles.
    3. Mutual Subscribers = is when you are subscribed to another Stumbler and that Stumbler is subscribed to you. You both see a value in being connected to each other.
      • Mutual Subscribers who can “Direct Share” = are mutual subscribers who have mutually opted in to share sites with each other from their toolbars (formerly known as “Friends”.) In order to start sharing, both parties need to have checked the option to “accept shares from the toolbar”.  Mutual subscribers who can direct share with each other are labeled with a dual-share icon:
        • directshare.png

    Useful tips for switching over to the new social relationship system:


    • Your existing Subscriptions and Subscribers from V3 will remain the same in V4.
    • Use the transition period to bring your contacts up-to-date. To help you with this transition, we added a temporary sub-section to the Subscriptions category. Go to Stumblers > Subscriptions and scroll down to “Friends who are not subscriptions.” Reassess this list of friends: do you want to continue to share sites with them?
      • If you want to direct-share, simply subscribe to them and refresh the page. The Friends you subscribed to will be moved to the Subscriptions section.
      • If you no longer want to direct-share, subscribe to them, uncheck the box for direct-share and then unsubscribe to them.
      • If you like their content, but don’t want to direct-share, subscribe to them, and uncheck the box for direct-share.
    • In order to direct-share in V4 with another Stumbler, you must both be subscribed to each other and both opt in to accept shares to your toolbar.

    4. Hard-Copy Content: Create a CD-ROM “book” with cleanly organized content that can be accessed offline. You can take things a step further and sell subscriptions for future updates to the system.
    5. GoodStorm: Like CafePress.com and Printfection.com, GoodStorm is a nice way to create and sell your own merchandising products.
    Paid Content
    Paid content is a good monetization method for bloggers that regularly offer useful information — especially if this information helps others make money. As with all monetization methods, it’s all in the approach. Don’t create misleading previews of content that requires a membership to read in full. Rather, devote special sections of premium content to readers who are willing to pay for the information.
    6. E-Books: Whether it’s a compilation of your best tips or a new idea altogether, an e-book is a good, reader-friendly way to package content.
    7. White Papers: Like e-books, white papers are a smaller, more technical version of your content.
    8. Phone Calls: Sell one-on-one phone calls for advice and other consulting through Ether.
    9. Miniguides: If you’ve just run a particularly helpful series, package it up into a miniguide.
    10. Tutorials: Gather your knowledge and compile it into a tutorial that relies upon your expert advice.
    11. Members-Only Sections: Whether you’re providing access to published items or just ad-free content, make sure you’re delivering a product that your readers are willing to pay for.
    12. TextMarks Inc.: Charge readers to get text-message alerts about your content through TextMarks.
    13. X-Events: Project physical events online and create revenue by charging admission, attracting sponsors and selling subscriptions to future events.
    14. Podcasts: Podcasts may be a novelty to your readers, and many of them are probably willing to pay to be able to hear your entries on the go.
    15. Videos: Like podcasts, videos are value-added extras that readers may be willing to pay for.
    Begging
    It never hurts to be straightforward about earning money from your blog. Ask your readers for donations — in a polite way, of course — and the ones that truly value your work will likely be more than willing to help support your ongoing success.


    101 Ways to Make Money from Your Blog

    16. PayPal: PayPal’s system allows you to place a donation button on your blog.
    17. Amazon Honor System: Like PayPal, the Amazon Honor System allows you to accept online donations.

    19. Buy me a beer/coffee: Asking for donations in the form of a beer, coffee or other special item allows readers to reward you with something tangible.
    20. Amazon Wish List: Although it’s not cash, asking readers to buy you items from your Amazon Wish List will save you from having to buy things yourself. Again, they’ll feel more rewarded knowing they’ve given you something tangible.

    Ads
    Ads are generally the bread and butter of bloggers. However, they’re also the most likely to irritate readers. To keep a happy balance, focus on relevance and make sure that you’re not overloading your blog with too many ads. It should go without saying that you should absolutely not use every single one of these ad programs, either. Rather, pick a handful and rotate them until you find what that works the best for your blog.
