Find your stolen computer and mobile phone using Firefound

Track your stolen computer or mobile using Firefound

Track your stolen computer or mobile using Firefound

It has been long since we have touched a topic on Mozilla Firefox. This excellent addon that rightly won the Extend Firefox 3.5 competition has drawn my attention to bring it to our users. Firefound is a Mozilla Firefox and Fennec (Mobile version of Mozilla Firefox) addon that enables users to track your computer or mobile phone when it is lost or stolen. This extension excellently uses the Firefox 3.5's Geolocation feature to save your current location to a secure central server whenever it changes.You can always log into the server to see the computer's current location.

If by chance, you lose your Computer or Mobile with FireFound installed, you can first tell it to clear all your personal data including the passwords, browsing history, cache,cookies etc., to save your sensitive data from falling in the hands of culprits.Later, using the FireFound server's geolocation data as a guideline, you can try to find its current location.

And the best part about this addon is that it is completely Open-sourced. So, you can run your own FireFound server and get your data logged there.This really helps to those people who are paranoid about their security and privacy , and are not comfortable with sharing their data on someone else's server.

Check Page Rank of all the URLs in a website

Google Pagerank Meter

Google Pagerank Meter

Google Page Rank is the most over-hyped SEO measuring factor of a website. Still, many people measure the success of a website based on the PR. There are many tools to check the Google Page Rank of a webpage ranging from websites, paid desktop tools, scripts etc .

Most of the times, you might want to check the most highly ranked web pages in your website. If yours is a blog or some big site, you will have some 100s to 1000s of webpages to check the PR. The problem in checking the PR of these many pages is that the free tools available only allow to check the PR of one page at a time and that will be a big time-eater.

Opera features

Opera 10.10 browser features

Opera has been my favorite browser since long. The main reason I have shifted to Opera from the Firefox is due to the former's lightness on resources. But once am into it I am awestruck by the features it possessed. Having all the major features any other browsers has, it also has some good unique features like Opera Turbo, Visual Tabs,Customizable Speed Dial,Opera Link etc.

The brains behind the Opera browser have added to the awesomeness with the release of Opera 10.10 browser which comes with its new invention - Opera Unite. Opera Unite, as claimed by Opera software, is going to 'reinvent the web'. Learn more about Opera Unite
