How to rename folders or tags in Google Reader?

Google Reader is my main RSS feed reader. It is online 24/7 and catches all my subscribed feeds everyday. Google Reader does not installed on my computer and so I don’t lose any hard disk space because all the feeds are stored in Google server. Google Reader is fast and convenient, but it lacks one feature that I think it is very useful, folders or tags renaming function.

Although Google Reader does not support that feature, but there is a way to rename or move your RSS feeds to another folder. Let say we want to rename Folder A to Folder B. Here is how to do it.

  1. Go to Settings and click on the Subscriptions tab.
  2. In “Filter by name, tag, or URL” field, enter the current folder name that you want to rename to filter out that folder. Eg: Folder A.
  3. In “Change folder…” dropdown list, choose New Folder… and enter the new folder name. Eg: Folder B.
  4. Now, click “All # subscriptions” to select all feeds under Folder A and choose Folder B in More actions… dropdown list to add that feeds into Folder B.
  5. Without deselect the selected feeds, choose Folder A from Remove tag under More actions… dropdown list.

Twitter – What do you Tweet about?

I have a Twitter account but I really seldom to update my Twitter page. Everyday, I see many of the persons that I following their Twitter updates always have new messages on their page. They always have something in their mind and tweet about it.

I do not know what should I do with my Twitter. If you see my Twitter page, I only have less than 10 Twitter updates. All the updates were sent through the Twitter website.

Twitter is very flexible. You can send the update via their website, mobile phone or from instant messaging client. Some prefer to update by using their mobile phone because the mobile phone is always at their hand. But for me, I prefer to update from the website because I can type faster than typing from the mobile phone keypad.

Picasa – Digital Photo Organizer from Google

Many of you may already heard about Picasa, one of the Google product which is used to organize photos more easily. I just bought a digital camera, Sony DSC-H50, a few weeks ago and already took about 200 photos by using that camera. All the photos are stored in my external hard drive sorted by date in their respective folders.


Picasa main interface.

Although the photos are well managed (maybe) in the folders but I still need to use Picasa because in Picasa I can view multiple photos at once. It is also really easy to jump from a photo in a folder to the another photo from a different folder.

With Picasa, I can tag the photos that I want for better future searching. Let say if the photo is about macro snapped, I tagged that photo with “macro” and the next time when I want to search for macro photos, I just search for “macro” tag from the search field and Picasa will display the photo immediately.

Vista Start Menu – Experiencing the new Start Menu

I have Windows XP installed in my PC and have a chance to try Vista Start Menu with pro registration. My first impression about this software is, quite difficult at the first time but very convenient after several times usage.

But Vista Start Menu is not like our normal Vista start menu. It is totally different. The thing that I like the most is the folder segmentation that it provides. Usually, when we install new software, the program folder created will be placed at different area at the Start Menu. When this happen, we will take some time to find where the program folder located. But with Vista Start Menu, you will able to find the folder much faster.

GoodSync is a synchronization software which enables you to synchronize your files and automatically backup files between desktops, laptops and external drives. It also can be used to synchronize your files to and from FTP, WebDAB and Windows Mobile phones and PDAs.

I started using GoodSync after I using RoboForm, a password generator and manager software. With GoodSync, I can synchronize my passwords from the USB thumbdrive to my local PC in just two clicks. I use it as a backup procedure just in case my USB thumbdrive got stolen or I accidentally deleted the passwords from it.

Sign in to Gmail via Secure Internet Connection

It is recommend for you to have a secure connection network between your PC and the Gmail server. Let say if you login to Gmail using a public network like wireless or hotspot in Starbucks, someone can tamper or see the sensitive information transferred from your PC to the Gmail server. This is because the network you are using is not secure and is open to everybody.

Non-secure networks make it easier for someone to impersonate you and gain full access to your Google account, including any sensitive data it may contain like bank statements or online log-in credentials.
