Windows Backup Software: Backup Maker

Posted by Laxman Kudva in

windows backup softwareBackup Maker is an extensive Windows backup software that compares quite well to commercial backup software. It runs on all NT based operating systems including Windows XP, Windows Vista and even the beta and release candidates of Windows 7. Backup Maker at its core can be used to backup selected files and folders locally or remotely. What sets it apart are the extensive options that become available in expert mode. Inexperienced users or those in a hurry can schedule data backups in five easy steps whereas experts can change backup parameters in six additional ones.

The fast backup mode that is displayed by default consists of steps to select the files and folders on the computer system that should be included in the backup, the backup execution interval (execute every x minutes, execute at, execute on (Windows start, USB detection, Windows logoff), week days or months days, the selection of full or partial backups or combined execution (create full backup after x partial ones), the selection of the target directory (local drives, CD / DVD or ftp) and a descriptive name. Backups can also be executed manually by the user in the main interface as opposed to being executed automatically.

Youtube: Enhance Youtube Experience

youtubeYousableTubeFix is a Greasemonkey script for the Firefox and Opera Internet browser (and most likley for other Internet browsers who support Greasemonkey as well) that changes the layout of Youtube to provide a better experience for the user. The list of features that are packed into the script is extensive and will change the perception of Youtube tremendously. Users of the Firefox Internet browser need to install the Greasemonkey extension before they can install the script while Opera users can move the script directly into a folder in the Opera directory.

Lets take a look at the default Youtube screen that appears when a user without the script opens a video on the portal.

And now the same page after the script has been installed in Firefox:

The script changes a lot directly on the screen. The video gets resized automatically to fit the screen. Ads and other unwanted elements on the page are removed including watching now, character counter or video annotations. Options to download the video in flv, mp4 format are available directly beneath the video. A click on the video title will also initiate a download of the video directly from Youtube.

The configuration options provided by the script contain several interesting features as well. The user can change the design of the Youtube website drastically. It is possible to remove additional elements from the Youtube page, display none or up to 500 comments on a page, prevent autoplay or autodownload, bypass the age verification (logged in users only) and select the default video format and flash player quality.

Firefox users can download the userscript here while Opera users have to go here instead.

YousableTubeFix is a great userscript for Youtube addicts and users who want Youtube to automatically use a specific video quality and page layout.
