Your “Online Hard Disk”

dropbox[1]

Probably you already have heard about cloud computing and the trend of having everything online (photos on flickr, videos on youtube or your documents on google.docs). What I have found is an application that creates a folder in your computer that automatically syncs with a “cloud hard disk”. This applications is called Dropbox.

In practice that means that all the files that you put in this folder are stored at the same time on a server and are available anytime, anywhere. The most exciting thing is that all these happen automatically in real time.

What you need to do to install that applications is to go to the Dropbox website, www.dropbox.com download the application (available for Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, iPhone, Blackberry etc). Install the application, create an account and that’s all.

dropbox-1[1]

Now you can store all your files online without using any browser just by using the dropbox folder.

Of course you can also have access to your files from the dropbox website.

Start exploring the dropbox and leave a comment about how you use it.

Never ignore the facebook friend request again!

confirm not now

I have been waiting for this feature for a long time. Since I joined facebook I had a lot of friend requests from people that I have never met, or I though I didn’t or from people I didn’t want to have as friends in facebook. So what I had to do till today was to either “ignore” them (which is not the best option and I will explain way either let them in the friend request list of mine. Till now I had 187 people on this list, but thanks to the new feature of facebook it’s 0 now!!

One  of the worst things in ignoring someone in facebook was that they could be notified from facebook that they are ignored or that they will be able to “add you as friend” again. But what if you don’t want?

not now facebook

 

The new way that you can manage your friend requests is the “not now” button. That means that you do not ignore the person but neither accept it, but put it on a waiting list for as long as you want. If the time comes and you want to add as friend one of those people you can go to the hidden requests list and accept them.

No ignoring and being rude anymore. No list of hundreds of “waiting friend requests”.

You can just say “Not Now”

Almost robbed!!

syntagma-nea-dimokratia[1]

Yes, it’s true. Yesterday I was almost robbed in the centre of Athens, in the most popular square in Greece called Sintagma in front of the Greek parliament. I was sitting down on the grass writing things in my notebook. When I guy suddenly came next to me and started to ask the direction to the Train Station.

I am always welcome to help strangers as I did, but this one was too suspicious. I replied but at the same time a remembered that my bag (that was next to me, had a lot of important things for me) was unprotected, and that all of my attention was not there at all. I looked back to find my bag and surprisingly I saw another guy sitting silently next to it.

If my attention was on the asking guy even for some more question my bag would now be in other hands and all of my important things would be gone! My magazines, my notebook, wallet, ID, my ideas written on pieces of papers. Everything would be gone.

And that make me think. Think that there are these moments that people try to “rob” us, that want to make us lose our important things and take advantage of them by making us unable to react. These important “things” are not only money, netbooks, wallet and credit cards. These things can be your moments, your job or your girl/boyfriend.

So, do not let others steal your “things”, be careful, pay attention and react!

Have you ever been “robbed”?
