Synchronize and Transfer Files between Online Storages: MyBackupBox

Posted: 04 Sep 2012 02:00 PM PDT


MyBackupBox is a free web based service which you can use to easily backup, transfer and synchronize files between online storage services like Dropbox and Google Drive, but that’s not the only thing that MyBackupBox can do. Website and database backup is also available, which makes this free data backup service perfect for webmasters. Backup not only website files, but also the backend, the MySQL databases where data is stored.

MyBackupBox default window

To use this free online storage file transfer you’re gonna have to register on the main website. After you register you’ll be automatically logged in and you should see the window that can be seen above. What you are asked is that you connect the online storage accounts that you would like to use with MyBackupBox. Total of 5 online storage services are supported for easy file transfer and backup, although some of them are still either in alpha or in beta, but they should work. You get:

  • Dropbox
  • Box
  • SkyDrive
  • GoogleDrive
  • SugarSync
  • FTP, SFTP website backup
  • MySQL database backup

Users who are for example using Box and would like to switch their files to Dropbox would normally have to download files from Box to their computer and then upload them again to Dropbox, but now with MyBackupBox you can easily transfer files directly from one storage service to another.

Similar service: Browser to Browser file transfer,

How to transfer files between online storage services and backup websites with MyBackupBox

If for example you are interested in transferring files between Dropbox and Box, first thing that you need to do is to make sure that MyBackupBox is allowed access to both of your accounts. This is done similar to how it’s done on Facebook, on the welcome window, which can be seen on the image above select Dropbox and Box, and allow access. They are gonna appear in the upper part saying What are you transferring from list.

MyBackupBox selecting accounts

When you click on a service in that list, it’s gonna appear on the left side of the file transfer interface, on the From list. You’re also gonna have to select a service for the right side, which is the To service side:

MyBackupBox transferring dropbox to box

In the From side, in your Dropbox account you’re gonna have to navigate to the files and folders that you want to transfer. Select them and then in the middle part of the menu select either Transfer now or Schedule this transfer options, depending on what kind of transfer you’re interested in making. If you want to archive the files to save space, you can do that by checking the Archive and timestamp this transfer option.

Conclusion

MyBackupBox is a great way of how you can transfer files between various different online storage services which can be when you start using a new one. With MyBackupBox you can also keep several copies of files, in several places just in case if one of your accounts gets broken into by third-parties. By having files saved in both Dropbox and Box, chances for you losing them are decreased significantly. If one of them fails on you, you have files elsewhere. Website and database backup is also available, free service.

Pin Files, Folders, Web Pages to Windows Taskbar: Taskbar Pinner

Posted: 04 Sep 2012 11:00 AM PDT


Taskbar Pinner is a free software that can pin files , folders, drives, libraries, and webpages on your Windows taskbar. Its an amazing application that works with Windows 7 and Windows 8 and pins almost anything to the taskbar for a quick and easy access.

When you start your computer the first thing which comes on screen is the desktop. You need to go to the exact location to open a particular program, file or folder (unless you are using an application launcher). Sometimes it feels so cumbersome to navigate a long path to access some file.

Windows does provides a way to pin your programs to taskbar using "Pin to Taskbar" option. This helps you to access these programs with a single mouse click from the taskbar itself. But this option is limited to programs only, and not files or folders.

But what if you want to pin your files and folders also? or your music or picture library? or a webpage shortcut? or control panel or games or drives or whatever you want to open right from your desktop?

This is where Taskbar Pinner comes into picture. This free software let you pin all your files, folders, drives, etc. from your computer to the taskbar so that you don't need to go to the specific location to open it from there. You can easily access these files or folders with a single mouse click from your taskbar.

Of course, Taskbar Pinner doesn’t gives you a feel of using Mac toolbar on Windows, but it does the job pretty darn well.

How to Install Taskbar Pinner?

Taskbar pinner is a portable application and comes in two separate versions for Windows 7 and Windows 8. You can directly run the appropriate version of Taskbar Pinner from your downloads. It doesn't need to be installed on your computer.

Taskbar Pinner's download consists of a zip folder. When you extract the files, you will get two separate folders containing separate versions of Taskbar Pinner for Windows 7 and Windows 8. It is strongly recommended that you should not use version for Windows 7 in Windows 8; and vice-versa. You can club this program with 7Conifier to change Windows taskbar icons.

How to Pin Files, Folders, Drives with taskbar Pinner?

There are three different ways in which you can pin items using Taskbar Pinner. Lets have a look on each of these:

  • Pin items through Taskbar Pinner: Taskbar Pinner has a very clear interface which gives you different options to pin files, folders, and libraries to the taskbar. Lets see how each of these modules help us to choose different items from your computer.

  • Pin a File: This module lets you pin files from your system regardless of there type, size, or content. You can choose this option to pin multiple files to your taskbar.
  • Pin a Folder: This module lets you pin folders to your taskbar. You can choose this option to pin multiple folders together.
  • Pin a Shell Location: Windows shell is a main Graphic User Interface which includes components like Start Menu, Desktop, Autoplay, etc. Taskbar Pinner lets you select shell folders, shortcuts, launchers, etc. and pin them to the taskbar.taskbar pinner pin shell
  • Pin a Library: You can pin a whole windows Library like Music, Documents, etc, to the taskbar using Taskbar Pinner.
  • Pin items through "Drag n drop": You can also pin a particular item to the taskbar by selecting and dragging it to the Taskbar Pinner application window. You can pin multiple items like this.
  • Pin items using Context menu option: As you run the application, a right click menu option will be added to each item on your computer. Just open the context menu and choose "Pin with Taskbar Pinner" option to pin a particular item on taskbar.

Download Digsby: Connect to Multiple Chat Networks

Posted: 04 Sep 2012 09:30 AM PDT


Digsby is a free IM client that lets you connect to many chat networks. Using Digsby, you can connect with GTalk, Yahoo Messenger, ICQ, AIM, MSN, and many more. Apart from chat networks, Digsby also connects with all popular social networks, like: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, MySpace, and many more. And Digsby doesn’t stops there. It integrates with your email provider as well, like: GMail, and other POP3  / IMAP mails.

In a nutshell, Digsby is a free Multi-protocol IM client with the additional features of social network and email integration.

The application has a totally awesome minimalistic interface. This software is available for Windows, Linux, and Mac and its free on all operating systems.

digsby main window interface

Everyone has so many accounts on different IM , social networks, and email providers these days. And you have to log into each one of them separately to check whats going on with each of them or you have to install each ones standalone software.

Digsby solves the above problem by integrating all the popular services in one application, so that you don’t have to individually log into each of them. Yes, there are many other applications like this, but Digsby is the only application, which I think integrates the email and social network part properly (if you strongly object to this, do let me know in comments; in a not so rude language :) )

I would like to recommend this application personally.

How to Install and Configure Digsby:

  • There is nothing special about installation, just keep on clicking next, and it will be over in a while.
  • After you have installed the application. Just run it from the start menu or the desktop icon by clicking on it.
  • Now a screen will come up, where you have to create an account with Digsby. After doing so you will be greeted with a login window here you are supposed to login with you credentials.

digsby login window

  • Then a window will appear as following, where you are supposed to add details about your different accounts that you would like to add to Digsby.  These includes Hotmail, Facebook, Google Talk, MySpace, Gmail, Yahoo mail, AIM,  MSN, ICQ, Facebook chat, Jabber, AOL / AIM Mail.
digsby add accounts
  • We are done with the boring stuff, after the above just start chatting.
Some other such All- in-one IM chat clients we reviewed in the past include:

How to Use Digsby:

Chat with Digsby: Now that you have setup Digsby, let’s start chatting on it. As you are connected to all your networks, you will be able to see all your online friends in the main window of Digsby. To start chatting with them, just double click on the name, and fire off; without worrying about which chat network are they on. The chats are presented in tabbed manner, so that with all these  services it doesn’t gets confusing. It has the ability to transfer files and saves chat history.

Social Networks and mail notification: Digsby shows notification icons in the system tray for all your social networks, as well as email. . Each icon shows number of unread notifications.  To access the social networks and mail just click on the notifications presented in the system tray. Clicking on the icon of each network will bring up the details about it. Also the missed notifications are shown as number count on each individual icon.

digsby system tray

The posts,  tweets, and email notification come up as non intrusive pop-ups on the lower left corner of your desktop. Just a right-click will dismiss them.

How do I my update status:  You can update all your network status from one place (even updates the IM’s status too). To do so just select which of the networks you would want to update your status as shown in the dialog below.
digsby status updateCustomization: Change the way the interface looks with skins, modify conversation bubbles, and customized notification.
How to create a chat room for your blog, website etc: You can create a chat rooms that can be embedded in your blogs, websites etc; so that you can interact with your visitors directly. For this follow the steps below.

Step 1: Open up this LINK, fill the chat rooms title and your nickname.
Step 2: Now it will ask you to login, logon with your Digsby credentials.
Step 3: A page will come up with the HTML code, copy and paste this code on to your page.

Verdict:

This multi-protocol IM client helps organize your online life and presents every thing in an ordered way. So I would like to recommend this application for those who like to have a sustained online presence but don’t want to logon into each of them separately and want a simple all in one solution. The interface is easy, intuitive to navigate through and operate multiple accounts. The notifications are non intrusive and application is light just 18Mb. Since the the day I reviewed this application, I have been using digsby regularly.
