Office Live Workspace: Open To Public Now

 

Microsoft has recently announced its public beta of office live workspace, which is previously available through invitaion only but from now, anyone can sign up for this live workspace. It is somewhat like google docs, but the difference between them is that live workspace has direct integration with the current market leader, Microsoft Office because both are from the same company. In order to integrate both, you have to install an add-on in MS Office.

Features:

• After saving, you can access your workspace from:

1. The local PC from where you have saved the document.
2. Anywhere in the world through your live account even if the Office is not installed there!

• It also has an excellent sharing feature by which you can share your entire workspace with others and all you need is an email address of the person with whom you wanna share your docs with.
• It is backward compatible and can work seamlessly with its predecessors like Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook. You can open, Edit and save MS Office 2003, 2007 and XP docs directly in live workspace, Synchronize tasks and events with outlook 2003 and 2007 and can export list and sheets as an excel spreadsheet.

With so many exciting features, this service from M$ is surprisingly free and hence left no excuses for you to not use this brilliant application.

Wanna watch free tv on your PC? Here you go!

 

Few days ago, one of my friends posted an excellent list of applications for watching free TV over the internet and got huge amount of traffic on that post. No doubt, it was an interesting article but he forgot to mention one such service named Miro.

Miro (previously known as Democracy Player) is another application for watching TV on the internet. What makes it different is it’s ease of use and maximum compatibility. It is based on XULRunner, and is free software released under the GNU General Public License.

Features:

Compatible with all major video formats including Quicktime, Flash Video, Windows Media, H.264, Divx, AVI, MPEG and more, Miro is capable of displaying quality sharpness in larger displays and works well in full screen unlike the grungy Youtube and other online video services.

Video management goes easy with its two excellent features. Firstly you can tell Miro to delete videos automatically from your personal channels after some days or you can keep any particular video permanently. Secondly you can set Disk Quota for downloading video and it will keep itself under that limit. By seamless integration with Bittorrent, downloaded video from torrents will add up automatically in Miro playlist same as if you are downloading it directly from Miro.

With auto download feature from Video RSS, Miro can download videos automatically from source as soon as they go live {Undo this if the videos are overloading you}. Miro indicates new and unwatched videos in different channels with bubbles of two colors blue and green. It will show green if the new videos are downloaded to your PC but not been viewed, or will show blue in the other case. It is an open project, and thats why supports all major OS’s {Mac, windows and Linux}. Volunteers from all over the world are consistently helping improve the program {If you are a developer, here is the source code list for you to participate in the improvement of the application}

No doubt that Miro is an awesome program with so many features and honestly, after trying this, I became fond of it. Try it yourself and post your experiences below.

Compress large size movie files and burn them easily.

You can do this with Ashampoo Movie Shrink and Burn. You want to reduce the size of a video file, change its format and even burn that on a CD of capacity less than the actual file size, you can do all these.

There are almost all formats to choose from depending on type of the device you are going to play your video file on. You can burn a file to your DVD, CD or a blue-ray disc. What’s more good is the undeniable fact that all these things are very easy to do.

All you have to do is to select: the device type (e.g. PC, PDA etc), the format that you want to convert the file to and the file size, and let that Ashampoo guy do the rest for you.

If a video file that you want to burn on a CD or a DVD is large enough that even compressing that file can’t make it to burn on a single CD/DVD, such large files automatically get splitted into multiple CDs/DVDs to burn on; the process is termed as CD/DVD spanning.

Nothing more to write except that what are you waiting for, make use of that useful, handy and cool Ashampoo utility. Wanna Download?
