Tell your stories by adding Audio to your Pictures

August 29th, 2008

Ever wondered if you could add audio to your pictures? Well you can easily do that now. If you like to tell stories, Yodo.com might be the site for you. With this site, you’ll be able to upload your stories, and then add pictures to them.  Once you’re registered with them it will allow them to save your audio to your account. After you are done telling a story, you’ll be able to go online and start editing your tale by adding pictures to display with it. Once you are done crafting the perfect “yodio card”, you can start sharing them with your friends and family, so they can know more about pictures you took. You can put your Yodios for sale. This will entitle you to 20% of the royalties generated from them. While this might not sound like much, once the site grows it could turn into an interesting way for people to make money.

Like they say
“Your voice is unique and personal…just like your stories. Use Yodio to add your stories to your photos or presentations, and share these narrated photos with your friends and colleagues.”

Not only that you can also make money using Yodio. Once you’ve made a few Yodios, you might be ready to create a YodioCast or YodioTour to offer for sale…and make some $$$. Both YodioCast and YodioTour offer you unlimited time and easy mashing with digital photos, and you will have the option to price for sale. Pricing for sale makes the assumption that your content represents good value. With this approach Yodio helps makes your self-publishing worthwhile by collecting and sharing the sale proceeds, and you will likely boost your personal recognition as a member of the Yodio author community.

Hide a File or a Folder in Windows

August 29th, 2008

If your PC is used by other people, you may need to hide some of the files which you do not want to share with other people or dont want other people to acces your private files or folder. There are several ways to hide a file or a folder in Windows.

The first one is hiding it in a JPEG image file. First of all you should make a new folder and copy all the files you want to hide. Copy an image inside the folder too in which you want to hide as well. Now select all the files you want to hide and create a zip or rar file with the help of Winzip or WinRAR.

Now go to Start > Run and type cmd. It will open the Command Prompt Window. Now type cd \, then type: cd YourFolderName and hit Enter. Replace “YourFolderName” with the name of your folder. Now Type the following: copy /b myimage.JPG + archivedthing.rar myimage.jpg and when its completed it will show you “1 file(s) copied”.


Click on Image to Enlarge

Now your file has been locked. Just right click on it and click Open With and select WinRar or Winzip which ever you used to compress the file and then extract it.

Easy isnt it!! :)

It isn’t a new kind of search engine but in fact a custom search dashboard with some unique features which could prove to be super helpful.

In simple words it makes the search a bit more specific so that you get what you’re looking for in the first attempt.
