My verdict



if you want to buy something which is compact and gets the job done, go with the strontium and kingston OTG pendrive, but with the Kingston OTG pendrive the problem or you take it as you want, while plugging into the phone you'll have to Turn and open it to use with the smartphone where as with the strontium one you just detach the top and use.
If you are on a tight budget as of now the sandisk OTG pendrive is the cheapest option you can buy for the money.

Share any type of files from PC to Anywhere


     Ever wanted to share large files over air to any location regardless of the wifi connection you are connected? The only thing appropriate to this software was TeamViewer where once i asked my Friend Vinston Dsouza to share some songs to me and it was like hell slow with the speed, i mean speed we are talking in 20-40 kb’s and it was like a 400Mb files of songs. I told him this is not worth the time; i researched on the internet and found a program named Send Anywhere. Teamviewer it’s great for screen mirroring though.

     I just loved this software earlier i used to use es file explorer to transfer files over the air but after this application now i have uninstalled that and use this as full time user.

NOTE- Keep in mind that there may be various programs available on the internet, but this is the program which i prefer.

This is the only piece of software which works according to me to anywhere around the world and
Bonus- This software is platform independent.


Dude what’s Platform Independent means?



   It means the software which you are using can be used on any type of operating system with regards the specification/ behaviour of the System you are using. For Example you can use this software to send files from PC to iOS, android, Chrome OS and Linux. Good thing about this is it also has 32bit version of the software.


What is send anywhere?



Send Anywhere is a software which allows the users all around the world to transfer files on the go.
It Works on peer-to-peer connection (One end to another).

This software generates a 6- digit numeric code to accept the transfer from the person who’s transferring. So you can text the code to the receiver and the transaction would complete.



send anywhere software
note- images are compressed in order to load site faster for your good experience


Why You Should Use Send Anywhere?



This software does not have anything to do with the users to sign up or login, once you download the software you are good to send files anywhere around the globe.
Remember why i didn’t use Teamviewer, speed right. When i tried this software, i was getting speed in MB/s though my Internet speed is 1 MBPS.

Although if you Sign up for an account you can track all the data which you are transmitting to another, the device which you share data gets saved in the menu for further usage. Quite Handy
Send anywhere comes with fully encryption along with it, so that your data is not hogged in between the process and is protected in order for various reasons.
Moreover, the software gets updated very often unlike others; PS got two updates within this month recently.

The Software of mobile and PC are user friendly, just basic stuff send and receive.
Major reason to have this is that you can upload a file to friends and that stays active for about 24 hours, meaning you can resume afterwards if you want. Re-Download if you want afterwards for some reasons.


How to use send anywhere?




  1. Simple just head over to the website from here.
  2. Download the version regarding your OS and architecture, install as usual and open.
  3.  Now i recommend you to sign up, so that you can have track of everything, Click on Send if you want to share files from your side to another user.
  4. NOTE- you can only transmit files to others only if the user on other side has the same software installed over his place.
  5. So now if you want to transfer files to America from India, you can do with high speed. Send the file from your side and then give the 6-digit code to your friend in America. The file would be transferred.

How to Turn Your Windows PC into Wi-Fi Hotspot


Hi hope you all guys are doing well. Today I'm going to share my experience on about how you can create a hotspot easily on Windows machine.


PC into Wi-Fi Hotspot



To be Frank I'm going to tell you that I haven't tried this on a PC, as I do most of my work from laptop. My brother won't let me touch his PC as whenever anything goes wrong with his system, the blame comes on me. So, everything which I try it's on a Dell inspiron 1525 laptop.


To create wi-fi hotspot you need to download a program called virtual router.


Requirements



PC into wifi hotspot
note- images are compressed in order to load site faster


  • Download virtual router manager from here.
  • In order to work this on your PC, your system must have support for wireless connection/adapter, or just buy an USB network adapter which are relatively cheap under 10$(approx 600 INR). This is one which i recommend, buy from here.
  • For Indians buy from here.


Steps involved



  • Download and install like any other program. Keep in mind that if your system does not have c++ installed, the installer will automatically download and install it for you, do don't freak out if it's taking time. It will depend on your system's performance.
  • Open the program, then you can edit the name of the hotspot which you want, creature passwords and then provide connection
  • While assigning connection, you need to sort that option which you have the internet connected to. If you have a single Ethernet or wifi connection, you should be easy to go because you'll only get one option to connect the internet.
  • If you have more than two internet adapters, you can check from which adapter you are getting internet by simply going into settings of control panel of network.
  • Check properly and assign that connection and start the hotspot.

PC into wifi hotspot
when you have more than 2 adapters select the any with internet connection



Virtual router can create hotspot on any windows machine running XP, windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10.


Why you should use virtual router?



Suppose you don't get your wifi signal range in some corner of your house, instead of buying a wifi extender you can temporarily set up a hotspot for use instantly with your laptop.


Keep in mind that your laptop/PC should always be kept ON in order to receive your wifi signal.


Troubleshooting



For instance if you are not able to connect to your hotspot, just stop the connection from virtual router software and initiate the connection again and you should be able to use the internet once again.


You can also use this program to share your internet, let me explain you with an example. Everytime I go to inOrbit mall in vashi, navi Mumbai, always connect to jionet wifi its high speed internet, but it's restricted to only one user, meaning I cannot connect to my laptop and mobile with the same number.


 So to avoid this trouble, all I do is connect my laptop to jionet wifi and then create my own hotspot from laptop. Then connect my mobile device, you get high speed internet on your laptop as well as on mobile.


I've tried with 2 devices connected to virtual router but I don't know how much amount of devices can be connected, you guys let me know if you are so much curious about it.


That's it for this tutorial here’s what a free program can do there are many more alternatives available in the internet like connectify, mHotspot but wasn’t having a good experience with the. Thank you for reading, make sure you are subscribed to the blog for more cool stuff.

How to add Google Analytics Code to your website – in depth explanation



     Hi guys getting the night started, hope you all are having a great day, OK so this blog is young and I call this a blog because the main motto behind this is to share the information with the users and let them grow, I am not a professional blogger nor do post frequently, with all the customization taking place you’ll also learn how to implement into your website. Today we are going to learn how to add Google Analytics code to your website. The difficulty level for this guide is 4/10, it should be very easy to sign up for analytics and add the code to the website.

Wherever I have used the word ‘Property’ it defines the website that you want to create analytics.


Why you must use Google Analytics?



  • Simple, we can track the sessions and the page views we get on our own website, you get a detailed report on what is happening onto your site. Like how many people are just hopping the site and the real time page view feature is just WOW!
  • You also come to know that what type of articles your audience is getting engaged to so that you can come up with more about those specific topics rather than just wandering and posting anything on the web.
  • with the help of Google Analytics no matter how many times you visit your website, you views won't count in the total page-views, it just cached the IP address and cookies so that owners page-views won't count.
  • You get analysis of audiences according to the location, how much they spent on to your site and the bounce rate which is very important, the lesser the bounce rate the more the site has people who are genuinely interested in reading the posts/article. More the bounce rate comes to a conclusion that the site does not have efficient data or is meaningless, try to write better and give it some time to reflect.
  • You can also find that the user which just landed on your webpage is directly from search engine like Google, yahoo or from any social network which becomes very handy to understand that on to which social media network you need to concentrate.
  • Track mobile users and from which type of mobile operating they are using to which model everything can be monitored and there are much more features.



Google Analytics Code to your website
note- images are compressed in order to reduce load times, and run the site faster.

Things you should have in order to insert Analytics code



  • Your website platform- For this I am using blogger, you can use any platform such as Joomla, WordPress, tumblr, etc.
  • Then make your way to the analytics website which you can go from here. Login to your Google account, then you just have to click on sign up button. Keep in mind that if you have a mobile application you can track its analytics but then you would have to create new property for that.
  • Easy walk-through the steps, write down your account, website name all that easy stuff which I am not going through them. Then click on Get tracking ID.
  • now get the analytics code and then copy and paste that code in your website template/main code, above the </head> tag. For blogger you go to template àthen edit template àpress CRT+f and then search </head> àpaste the code accordingly and then save template. This should be similar to all other blogging platforms.



How to delete a property in Google analytics



  • Go to the account settings of that particular property which you had created earlier (which you want to delete)
  • And then you can see an option to the top right side of the screen, click on move account to Rubbish Bin.
  • Don’t worry if at all somehow you want to restore the deleted analytics account back you can restore it afterwards.


Google Analytics Code to your website

note- images are compressed in order to reduce load times, and run the site faster.


How to restore Google Analytics property



Hover over to the admin tab and then click on rubbish bin and then restore your account, keep that in mind that it will not be stored in the rubbish bin for a longer period of time and would be deleted automatically after a few days.


Tracking your website from Smartphone



You just need an application from play store named Google Analytics, directly download from here.
Recently the app got a makeover and now has material design baked in the user interface and is far better than the previous versions which were old AF. With the app makeover it’s now has got many more options and features, now you can by default view your analytics based on weekly or monthly bases once you set up that option.



With teaching you guys I just added my website with the Analytics code, hope you liked the post make sure you are subscribed for more cool stuff, I mean why not it’s free. Next tutorial in this section would about adding your website to Google Webmaster. The Analytics user-interface or option might change in future but i would try to keep it up to date, for the record this is up to date for now. Was it that tough to set up, let me know in the comments section below.

thank you for reading.

Internet speedometer - DU Meter Alternative : My Experience


This is a simple yet small program which helps you to monitor your speed real time. You must be really a nerd/geek in order to know how much speed you are currently getting while browsing or watching a YouTube video. I mean if you are you one of those people who just waits for the website to load and think the internet connection is slow, get this and now you’ll know that the site is heavy or you’re ISP. This program is identical to DU meter but is netWorx a good replacement for it?

Let's find out


Earlier I used to use DU meter whenever I switched to Windows, it's neat and blends in the theme of Windows. But DU meter was paid software I used to use cracked version and I was like why am I using crack when I use something which is freeware? Then I started looking for alternatives and I bumped into a program called netWorx.
  

Dude what’s freeware?


Software which is available free of charge to the Consumers.


    

About netWorx



After installing and trying out for at least 2 weeks, all I can say is that this application can easily replace with DU meter and moreover it was freeware software. You really need to try all the features this program offers, there's a lot more to know


Networx alternative for DU meter
note- images are compressed in order to reduce load times, and run the site faster.


My experience



I installed netWorx on my laptop and to be Frank I don't use my laptop often. It's like twice or thrice a week. With this software I can monitor my speeds, my hourly, daily and monthly reports.

You also get an option to backup your statistics and then restore if you want to do a full wipe to system. You can also get an average about how much speed you were getting on hourly basis.

You can also change the speed meter graph colours to your liking, but I liked the default colour so i didn’t mind to change those. You do not need to worry about the speed indicator volume(kbps,KBps,MBps) this tool automatically show you the current speed with the right conversion, but you can also keep this setting to a personalized value like, if you like to see only in Mbps you can change the settings to your requirement, like i said already there’s alot to discover about this app.


Networx alternative for DU meter
note- images are compressed in order to reduce load times, and run the site faster.



One thing that i most liked about this software is that it has a option to mail the records of your usage into your mail automatically, I have set to monthly report but you can also get daily reports you insist.


Requirements



  • Should work with any configuration of windows machine
  • Download the software from here and install as any other program.
  • Open and if you want the speed indicator to remain in the task bar always, then right click on task bar and hover over toolbar and select netWorx.



There’s no harm in trying this software as it contains many features. If there are any other alternatives you have tried then let me know in the comment section below. Question of the day is how much do you depend on network speed indicator in your day to day life, i just had a regular checkup yesterday at BARC hospital and found that people where using Windows xp. I mean people don’t care about latest versions to run and are happy to use the stuff as it is because that gets the job done.

If you are reading up to now then you are special to me make sure you are subscribed to my blog because there’s a lot of projects I’m currently working on and share with friends. Thank you for reading.

how to add push notifications to your website

     Nowadays nobody cares about subscription to a website why? Because of Google Chrome’s latest feature to get push notifications directly from the browser into your PC, laptop and your mobile phone. Nice and easy. Today as promised I’m going to teach you all how to add notification feature on to your blog, should work with any type of website but I’m trying on blogger (BlogSpot) so you use this guide and try on to your website and let me know so that I can add those here which will help others. However no coding knowledge is required for this process. But let me rectify why keeping a mailing list always comes in handy. Your supporter who is loyal, willing to know about you will definitely check the posts provided him in to his mailing id. Hence it’s always better to maintain a mailing list, this is push notification is just another alternative in the form.

What are push notifications?


     Just like a notification you get from your app, now you can also get notifications from your website. People might not check your mails they receive in the mails about your blog but will definitely check if it’s a notification. So it’s a win-win situation for both the reader and the blogger. Also your content gets viewed by your audience super quick which is just a notification away.

Why you should use push Notifications?


    You’ll be able to connect with the users more with your content and would result in a good impact for your blog. It’s kinda no brainer to not use such an awesome way to interact with your audience.

So let’s begin

Things which we will be required for enabling push notification


  • Your blogger account
  • Pushcrew account- you can sign up over here.


     Set was quite easy you just have to sign up for a free account. And then you are welcomed with the dashboard directly. Now I’m figuring stuff I hope this should be an easy walk. Everything’s nice and easy but it says that we cannot add push notifications for mobile. And more ever you are stuck with 500 subscribers for push notifications. Otherwise you pay and go main stream with mobile push notifications and unlimited push notification offers. The push notification javascript which you get is provided from Pushcrew, so if you are on the free version your audience would have to allow permissions for two times. Handy thing what I just found that if your website is supported/has SSL Certificate then you can get the propriety menu for allowing notifications or blocking just like you can you get for other websites.

push notifications


    For the time being I’m going to keep using pushcrew, and would also suggest you all to keep using this as a beginner, once you all rank in the search engine then it will be time to pay and move on to pay or other better option until then I would be searching other alternatives so make sure you are subscribed for more awesome content around the corner.

    Hope you understand the steps provided any doubts or problems regarding would be solved, comment in the section below and I would there to help!
