Windows Vista Ready Boost Feature allows you to extend your system memory with the help of Ready Boost compatible USB Pen drives. But most of us have a USB Pen Drive which is not Ready Boost compatible merely due to lack of knowledge or unavailability in the market. But here is a quick trick that you can use to make your normal USB Pen Drive to work with the Ready Boost Feature.

For this you will have to do registry editing, so I advice you to have a registry backup in case you do something wrong. Here are the steps to follow:

1. Go to Start | Run.
2. Type in 'regedit' (without the inverted commas) and press enter.
3. When a prompt by the User Account Control is displayed, click on 'Continue'.
4. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\EMDMgmt key.
5. Find out the sub key for the USB stick.
6. Double click on the 'DEVICE STATUS' DWORD value and modify it to '2'.
7. Click on OK.
8. Now, change DWORD values of 'ReadSpeedKBs' and 'WriteSpeedKBs' to '1000'.
9. Finally, close the Registry Editor.

Now, just insert your USB stick into the USB port and wait for the Auto-Play Dialog box to open. Click on the "Speed Up my system" button and configure it.

Overall, slideaware is a great tool for having your presentations to go online but in my view Slideaware team can take it a level up by adding functionality in their application which allow the users to add some really amazing effects and animations to their presentations which MS Power Point does not have.

In this modern world, banks have become an important part of life. Millions of people have deposited their money in their savings and current accounts and in today's internet world, online banking is changing the way we bank completely. Online Banking have made our lives really simple with no more need to stand in long queues for daily banking activities. But for all these services, bank charges you. Sometimes, these charges are well in limits but there are times when these charges can't be neglected and really get onto our nerves. Well, these days it has been a well known fact that banks have really no right to charge account holders of excessive bank charges. There have been many account holders who have claimed the money that they paid to their banks as bank charges and quite a good number of them have got their money back. Overall, these unfair bank charges should not be allowed and there must be a strict law and order that can have a good look at the fees that are being charged by banks. The fees that are being levied by banks shouldn't be completely removed as banks need some source of income for their services but these charges should be under control and well within the limits of every person. If you want more knowledge on banking, you can visit thriftyscot.co.uk which has some great articles on the banking and the fees charged by them.

Social Bookmarking sites have been the number one source for viewing most popular web pages out there until today which marked the start of a new Web 2.0 service Fichey. Fichey is an ultimate tool for those who likes to know which websites have been popular within the masses on a particular day. Well, Fichey uses the social bookmarking sites such as digg, stumbleupon etc. for extracting the information on popular websites today.

Fichey has been completely made in Flash and hence its a little slower and believe me sometimes it takes a lot out of you. But the facility and the simplicity with which it gives you the information on popular websites is just magic. It will cache out the jpeg images of the pages that have been popular on a selected social bookmarking site for a particular day. To surf that website you just need to double click on the jpeg image and you will be taken to the respective site.

The only thing it lacks is the speed otherwise it would have been a great platform where we can easily know what is the top story currently and which have been the most popular. I hope that the Fichey staff might just make it a bit speedier and it might redefine the way we browse.

Google Web Accelerator works best for broadband networks but dial up users can also really boost up their surfing speed. But as Google Web Accelerator really accelerates the things by caching up the pages that you surf it means that is going to consume at least a significant amount of time if you are surfing geek which will continuously grow up as you surf more and more. But I am always ready for any consumed space on my hard disk if it can really speed up the things and helps me save my precious broadband bandwidth.

I have not been a Vista supporter as I feel that Microsoft's Vista cannot deliver the industry with the developments as it was in the case of Microsoft XP's. And now, Acer, the number four in hardware industry, reconfirmed my thinking. 

Acer's president Gianfranco Lanci today said that Vista users have been facing problems while working with it and a normal computer user really had no real reason to buy a new PC especially for Vista. He also added that many of their customers have asked them to put up Microsoft's XP in addition to the installed Vista. This clearly suggest that their is a large mass in the world today who don't like Vista.

Besides this, the high end hardware required for Vista have also been a major problem in attracting customers with the well known fact that with 512MB of RAM, Vista works as if it hadn't been charged to full. Moreover, if you are a gaming geek than Vista might not be a really good platform for you with the exception DirectX 10 compatible games as it would mean a real large RAM and Video Graphics card for better gaming experience.

Well, Microsoft really had no excuse for what they gave us after a so long wait between Windows XP and Vista. Microsoft in order to increase the sales of Vista has decided to push the users for buying Vista with the recent announcement that it will terminate the sales of Windows XP by January, 2008. The question that has always been making mw worried that "where would 3-4 year old PC owners and XP lovers go in order to get XP?".

Till date we have always been searching for information on the internet but now the trend is changing with the upcoming of people search engines.

PeekYou is an online people search engine with more than 50 million profiles in its database. PeekYou, however, is still a relatively new concept and will take time to establish itself and get famous in the masses which will result in better search results. You have to add your profile if you wish to be available on search results. The good thing about it is that you don't need to be registered with PeekYou. Just click on the Add Profile page and add your profile along with your photos and website link. The bad thing about it is that it had no facility to upload your photos directly into the PeekYou server due to which you need to use a third-party server.

Searching on PeekYou is very simple. Just type in the search engine, the name of the person you are looking for and it will give you the results. Moreover, you can refine your search by their country relative search engine that gives you an extreme control over the search results.

Well, its looking that days are not far away when people search engines will gain popularity but they need to develop by including more and more tools such as employee search, employer search, technician search etc.

Microsoft, reacting to the criticism that it had to face due to the late release of Windows Vista has announced that the newer version of Windows will be released with in the next three years. Another important thing that the sources are quite confirmed of is that the newer version will be given the codename Windows 7 thus indicating that Microsoft is now going to drop attaching titles to its Windows releases. This means that Microsoft is going to release Windows 7 in the first half of 2010.

Microsoft has started working on the plans of Windows 7 and believe that they will be able to finish up with it in the three years time thus giving an indication that it is now going to provide better software assurance to its client with periodic Windows releases. Another important thing about Windows 7 is that it will be again be shipped as consumer and business editions and there will be two different Windows 7 for 32-bit and 64-bit computing.

Well, for me it's hard to believe what they are saying after seeing the long delay in Vista's released but we have to take their words.

Alexa have been one of the the major source for getting information on web traffic for any website. Alexa simply collects data from the users that have installed Alexa toolbar on their PC. But, Alexa Toolbar was only available for IE and it's statistics were incomplete without any web traffic collection from the large Firefox community. But not any more, Alexa recently released their Alexa Toolbar for firefox under the name "Sparky".

The Sparky isn't that much sparky as an Alexa toolbar as it was for IE. The sparky just adds a new menu in your browser under the name "Related Links" and a status bar on the right hand bottom of the Firefox that displays you three Alexa stats i.e.

1. Traffic Trends
2. Reach Meter
3. Traffic Rank

On clicking the traffic stats, a menu opens up where you can find quick links to the site overview, traffic details and Related Links. But in my view it would have been a much better option if they had tried to make it an expanded status bar with all these features just one click away.

Sparky is compatible with all the Firefox v 2.0 and higher. It is compatible with the newly released Firefox 2.0.0.5.

You can download Sparky - The Alexa toolbar for firefox from the Alexa Download Page

Powerpoint presentation is an essential part or seminars and project presentation. Well, there has been many in-built animations in Powerpoint but sometimes we need some special animations that can be easily created only with the help of Flash. But if you are searching for any control on powerpoint so as to integrate your flash with your presentation than I am sorry to say that there is no control on the main menus. Its actually hidden inside the Powerpoint's control toolbox. Here is a detailed way to integrate your presentation:

1. Open the VIEW menu.
2. In the view menu, look for Toolbars|Control Toolbox and click on it.
3. Now, the Control Toolbox will appear on your screen.
4. Click on the "More Control" button in the bottom right corner of the Control Toolbox.
5. Scroll down the "More Controls" menu to find "Shockwave Flash Object" and click on it.
6. Now, on your slide drag the cursor to create a rectangle.
7. Right click on it and in the properties, type in the path of the Flash file that you like to embed.
8. View the slide show and see your flash file playing in it.

The only thing you need to keep in mind here that you must have Shockwave Flash Object Control here. By default it is installed if you have a full version of Office but in case you have a Beta version of Office, this might not work for you.

Sign up to Jaxtr is currently only by invitations from existing members only. Well, I know its just harsh but if you really want to be its part, just comment to this post and I will send you an invitation. Ok, now lets get onto the details of Jaxtr.

After signing up to Jaxtr, the first thing you must do is to add a mobile or landline number to your account. Well, after adding your phone number to your account you need to activate it. Jaxtr's phone activation is one of the things that mostly impressed me. As soon as you enter your phone number, you will be taken to the activation page containing your activation number. Soon, a phone call will come at the number you provided and you will be asked to enter the code and as you enter it your account will be activated.

Next, Jaxtr will create a widget for you through which your friends can give you a call anytime from anywhere around the world just by a single click. The widget can be posted to blogs, youtube, craiglist etc. Another interesting thing about Jaxtr is that the Jaxtr actually allows you and your friend to have a conversation on your mobile phone absolutely for free rather than on computer which most of the other such services does.

Well, Jaxtr seems to be growing very quickly but the only limitation is that it is still growing and not available fully in many countries. Nevertheless, Jaxtr is growing and it might set up its services in every country so that millions of people can benefit it.

Update : Jaxtr is no more in private beta. Now you can sign up for free without any invitation

Yahoo recently launched and integrated a new service to their search engine which is called as "Yahoo Suggest". Well, the service is aimed at reducing the time which users take to search a query besides helping them to reach out the things for which they are looking for easily.

The service is really simple and you don't require any action from your side. The way you search on Yahoo is absolutely the same. You just have to type in the search box, the keywords you are looking for. As you type in the words, yahoo will come up with the most popular search queries for those words automatically and instantly. This really helps if you don't know what keywords would be the best for the thing you are searching for.

Well, I found this feature really helpful and can't understand any reason why Google guys failed to think of such things although they have Google Suggest feature already available and yet they didn't integrated it with Google Search Engine. Nevertheless, Yahoo has really proved that they are working much harder than Google with such a great development that can revolutionize the way we search.

Have a look at the screenshot here:
