Track Your Manuscript Submissions with Sonar

Posted: 13 Jan 2012 02:00 PM PST


Sonar is a free program for writers to keep track of their manuscript submissions. If you're a writer, whether in print media or online, keeping track of where you send manuscripts to and what their status is can be a difficult job. You could create a spreadsheet, Word document, database application, or even just a text file with which to keep track of all of your manuscript submissions. Instead, you could just use this free program Sonar.

Manuscript Submissions program with Easy Download and Installation:

The download for Sonar is quite small, at less than a megabyte. In fact, I was quite surprised when I saw the size, which might put a few people off, 666 kilobytes. Luckily, the author, Simon Haynes, was thoughtful enough to provide a zip file version of the download, which is smaller, at 450 kilobytes. The application has a fairly small footprint while running after installation, at just about seven and a half megabytes.

Installation is quick and painless, taking less than a minute. The installer has no nasty surprises for you while you install the program. No changes to your browser settings are made or attempted, and no unwanted toolbars are installed.

User Interface Not Intuitive, Useful Help File:

The user interface for the program isn't well set up, nor is it intuitive. The steps required to input and update a specific record aren't very obvious. I had to read through the limited, but helpful help file that Simon has put together, for the previous version of Sonar, in order to figure out how to change one of my article or manuscript submissions from unsold to sold and published. If you don't use the program on a daily basis, you're most likely not going to remember how to do everything you will want and need to do in the program. To me, that's a hassle, because it means I'm going to have to take extra time to read the help file. Personally, I prefer to have my help files locally, not online. Yes, it takes up a little extra space, but I also don't have to have an active Internet connection to get help with the program.

You can also check out StoryBook or Celtx free software we reviewed for professional writers for writing and organizing novels.

To Register or Not to Register:

Sonar is a totally free product, and registration is not required. As the author states, registration helps to ensure that he can afford to put more time and effort into improving the program. Also, it shows your appreciation for the program. Unlike the trial versions for a large number of commercial applications, registration doesn't unlock any special features. All that happens when you register and enter the code is that the "Unregistered Version" will no longer be displayed.

Free Online Trip Planning with Tripomatic

Posted: 13 Jan 2012 09:00 AM PST


Tripomatic is a free online trip planning service for everyone. Are you planning to take a vacation in Europe and don't want to go around in a big herd of tourists? Maybe you want to visit sites and attractions off the normal tourist route. Tripomatic will help you plan a romantic vacation for two, or a fun family vacation.

Online Trip Planning, Which Means No Download

Most other trip and route planning applications either require you to download something, or install it from a CD or DVD. Tripomatic is completely online, however, so there's nothing that needs to be installed. Go to the website, select the European country you want to plan a vacation in and you'll be presented with an interactive map of the country, with images representing various locations of interest.

Interactive Map Displays Special Sites of Interest

Let's say you want to visit Belgium. You'll be taken to a page that lists three of the main cities in the country – Antwerp, Bruges, and Brussels. Clicking Antwerp will take you to a map of the city, with popular attractions around the city. These are displayed in one of two ways. Locations that the current magnification level of the map allows to show separately are indicated with an icon of the location with a picture of the location. The map is similar to a Google map, with similar options, including representations of points of interest for tourists.

There are also icons that are small pictures of magnifying glasses. These magnifying glass icons represent multiple points of interest that the current magnification level of the map doesn't allow individual images. For example, on the map of Antwerp, you will see an icon representing the Photo Museum near the lower left corner. Just above and to the right of this icon, at the default magnification level, is an icon of a magnifying glass. If you increase the level of magnification by one click, the magnifying glass icon will resolve into two image icons, one representing the Museum of Contemporary Art of Antwerp, and another representing the Zuiderpershuis cultural center.

Build an Itinerary for Your Stay

When you click on the pictorial icon for a point of interest in one of Tripomatic's map views, you will be presented with a short description if the location and an option to add it to your itinerary for the day. As you select the locations that you wish to visit for the first day, including restaurants for meals, the icon for each location will be given a red outline, and the easiest route between destinations will be highlighted on the map. Additionally, the locations you choose will be listed in the left hand pane of the browser window. The list is built not based upon which order you select the locations, but their order on which the application decides they fall on the most logical route when driving.

Tripomatic allows you to plan multiple days. Clicking the Destinations button allows you to choose the country or city again. You can plan as many days and as many cities and countries that you want or need. Clicking Get Trip Plan after you've planned out all the days of your trip takes you to a list of options, one of which is to print out your trip. You can also share it on your social media and do a variety of other things to save and tell others about your trip.

Tripomatic is pretty cool. If you don't want to be left to the vagaries of a trip planner, are a trip planner, or don't want to hang out with a tour group, this is the perfect application for you.  The one problem, I had was that printing your itinerary isn't fully supported in Windows 7 and Firefox.

Convert C# to Java Online: C#2Java

Posted: 13 Jan 2012 05:00 AM PST


CodePorting C#2Java is a free online application to convert C# to Java. This C# to Java converter lets you upload C# code, and converts that to equivalent Java code. You can upload complete C# solution, and that will be converted to Java in a few seconds. You can even specify solution path from online repository. In case some code cannot be converter, C#2Java lets you edit the code in the built-in code editor.

C#2Java is one of the best C# to Java converters that I have come across. This is a full fledged online application suite that does a darn good job at online conversion. What I like best is that you can upload your complete C# solution (in zip format), and C#2Java will convert entire solution to Java code.

C#2Java

Once the code is converted, C#2Java shows you the code in a beautiful code editor. The code is properly indented. In case it was not able to convert some code, it lets you edit that in the visual source code editor.

Once the conversion is done, you can download the converted code.

Here are some of the features of this Free C# to Java Converter:

  • Upload complete C# solution, and convert that to Java.
  • Very fast conversion.
  • Accurate conversion from C# to Java
  • Completely online, nothing to download or install.
  • You need to create a free account to start doing conversion.

I wasn't able to test this application thoroughly as I don't have a complete C# solution, but the application looks pretty good on the outset.

If you are an avid C# programmer, then do this app for a spin, and let us know how it performs.

Check out C#2Java.
