Make Google Reader show the Item Entry Title in the Title Bar
For some reason, I’ve always wanted this feature on Google Reader. The Google Reader page’s title is pretty static – it just says ‘Google Reader’ and shows the number of unread items. Suppose you’re reading a new entry on Google Reader, the title bar doesn’t reflect that item’s title.
Read and extract data from .NBU Nokia Backup Files
If you have a Nokia mobile phone and have ever tried backing up data from your phone on to your PC, you’d have noticed the Nokia PC Suite creating a file called .NBU that contains a backup of your data. These .NBU files can be restored to your phone later using the PC Suite itself but the bottom-line is that you can’t extract pieces of data from that file.
Delete all Direct Messages in your Twitter Account
If you find your Twitter direct messages inbox clogged up with too many messages, you might feel like deleting them all at once. Unfortunately, Twitter doesn’t provide a way to delete multiple/all direct messages at once. You can delete them individually, but that’s going to take a hell lot of your time if you have too many direct messages in your account.
It’s been a great year
This new year marks the first birthday of Killer Tech Tips. Of late, I haven’t written much on this blog. I’m going to complete my schooling in just three months from now, and my final exams begin on March 2. That’s taking a toll on this blog. Till then, posts will be sporadic or you may not see any posts at all.
Job Search on Twitter?
Loic Le Meur wanted authority search on Twitter and it just happened. In just about 12 hours, Jon Wheatley managed to make just that – he launched an authority based search engine for Twitter called Twitority (see Techcrunch coverage here). You can go there to search tweets and filter the results based on the number of followers one has.
[This idea just popped on my head, and I’m jotting it down. Some of you might find it just stupid. But I think it has some potential]
