TweetDeck for Chrome is a Flexible, Lightweight Version of its Desktop Counterpart
19 Apr 2011 by Evan Wondrasek / 7 Comments
TweetDeck Desktop is arguably one of the best desktop Twitter clients for power users. It offers endless columns of information, multiple account support, and many features that Twitter itself had to copy. This app can basically do it all, and might even be getting purchased for $50 million by Twitter. My only major complaint is that TweetDeck Desktop runs on Adobe Air, and while I have no qualms ...

Convert Web Pages to PDF, Quickly and Easily
18 Apr 2011 by Scott Nesbitt / 1 Comment
Even though we live in an increasingly digital world, many people still can’t let go of paper. Look around any office (even your home office) and you’ll see a hard copy of some content from one website or another. The next time you’re on public transit, take a peek at your fellow passengers; chances are at least one of them is reading a printed web page. But if you look closely a...

How to Profit from the AT&T/Alltel Merger
15 Apr 2011 by Derek Johnson / 1 Comment
Now that AT&T may be acquiring T-Mobile, their acquisition of Alltel in a few states since the Verizon/Alltel merger is old news. By now everyone has pretty much figured out the jig. Every current Alltel customer gets a free AT&T phone because the two networks use different technologies, and a current Alltel phone won’t work on AT&T’s network (CDMA and GSM stuff). Recently, I stum...

Add a Splash of Color to Your Twitter Background (and clothing and walls, too!)
14 Apr 2011 by Kate Bedrick
If you’re like many of my Twitter friends, or about 70% of the Techerator staff, you have a default Twitter background. There’s nothing wrong with it, unless you want the same unique look as 80 million other people in the Twitterverse. There’s the option to cruise Google or Bing for wallpapers large and shapely enough to make your background look sweet without tiling the image. And sure, t...

How to not suck at Facebook Questions
11 Apr 2011 by Derek Johnson / 3 Comments
You probably noticed Questions popping up on your Facebook News Feed, which quickly turned into “Which Backstreet Boy is the hottest?”, “What state is the best?”, and “Which Arena Football team east of the Mississippi, but South of the Mason Dixon Line has the best cheerleaders?”.

Dealing with Workflow Failed On Start (retrying) errors in Microsoft SharePoint
31 Mar 2011 by Bryant Sombke / 1 Comment
I don’t know why I expect SharePoint to work without problems. In almost every project I’ve done, some unforeseeable problem pops up that seems to make little sense. Maybe, after beating my head against the wall so many times, I’ve developed SharePoint amnesia, but I always expect the project to be a pleasant experience. I guess that’s just my inner masochist rearing its ugly head. Recentl...

Forget the $41 million, could Color fail simply because of GPS limitations?
25 Mar 2011 by Evan Wondrasek / 4 Comments
There has been an incredible amount of discussion about Color, a new – let me try to describe this – mobile-social-location-aware-photo-sharing app that recently brought in an eyebrow-raising $41 million of capital. Even venture capital group Sequoia Capital was surprised, saying: “Not since Google have we seen this.” That statement definitely caught people’s attentio...

Share files the easy way with Ge.tt
23 Mar 2011 by Scott Nesbitt
Remember the old days of sharing or transferring files when you had to put them on a floppy disk or a USB flash drive to move them between computers, or to pass those files to a friend or colleague? The method worked, but only if you were moving files a few feet away. Even so, doing it got really old really quickly. Email has made sharing and moving files a bit easier. Slightly. Some people bloc...

Internet Explorer 9: If Chrome jumped off a bridge…
22 Mar 2011 by Bryant Sombke / 4 Comments
Overall, IE9 is a huge improvement in design, features, and speed for Microsoft’s web browser. While many of the changes are a few years behind their competitors, it is without a doubt a step in the right direction.
