Say goodbye to spelling mistakes in text boxes (Firefox)

We all know that Firefox has a built in spell checking tool and it's very useful (for me at least). But this spell checking tool is a available only in text areas and not in little text boxes. To make them also be available there you just need to follow those simple steps:



1. Open Firefox and type about:config in the address bar.
2. Search for layout.spellcheckDefault
3. Change the value from 1 to 2 (right click > modify)

Now go to a webpage and test your new tool!

Posting in the future made easy (Blogger)



Did you notice the "Scheduled" button before? Maybe not, why? Because you need to use Blogger draft to have access to this feature. Blogger draft lets you test the blogger updates even when they are in testing.
What is a scheduled post? It's a post saved on blogger's servers that will come online when you set it to appear.

How to make such posts? Simply go to create a post (Note: You need to use Blogger draft, it's the same with the regular Blogger and doesn't need any registration) press post options and enter you date and hour.

Simple as that. Enjoy!

4 things to make your computer faster

Here I made a little list that you can try if you really need that little something that can make your PC move faster:

1. Use Readyboost (if you run Windows Vista), a tool that let's you add more memory to your PC using your memory card or USB flash drive. Good if you have a memory card/flash drive that you don't use at that moment (also you can set how much of the space available you want to use to speed up your computer) Read more
2. Buy more Memory. This one is maybe the best thing you would want to do if you really want performance. You might say why because I already have Readyboost? Yes but Readyboost uses your memory card/flash drive, you USB port (or your memory card reader) and many people doesn't want to go with Readyboost because they consider it doesn't improve your performance as a memory card does. To run Vista you need a minimum of 1GB RAM but I recommend you something like 1,5GB or even 2GB of RAM
3. Upgrade your drivers. Using the latest software for your hardware could lead in better performance most of the time.
4. Overclock your computer. This one is for advanced users. You can add more performance by stressing your hardware to work to it's best. Note that you can shorten your hardware life or even damage it if you make a stupid move. Read here

2,3 and 4 also work with other Operating Systems!
