All in Quick Tip

I have already placed a few tips up about Chrome, this latest feature I really like.  By looking at the Task Manager for chrome, you can see what resources a page is using, if you think that a certain site is causing your browser to perform badly, you can see exactly what resources it is using and from there you can kill the window/tab.

On the Mac version of Chrome you can get to this from the Window Menu, from there you can select Task Manager.

I have many PuTTY sessions on my main work PC.  I need to ensure I have all the sessions available for my support laptop at home, also I need them in case I am carrying aroung my small netbook and I need to connect to work.  I use the script below to make a copy of the PuTTY registry key to both my local PC hard drive and to my dropbox folder so I can access them from any machine.

It's a very simple batch file, please feel free to copy and distribute the script.

I have been using chrome for a while now on my netbook, and to be honest I am very impressed.

I am always keen to use keyboard shortcuts to avoid the small little trackpad as much as I can.  So I have listed a couple here which I use frequently.  I am sure there are many more, so please feel free to comment to add your favourites..............

Just recently I have been reviewing several sites and storing the bookmarks as I went, I have been keeping them in a seperate review folder.  I had noticed that XMarks was not running, when I had started it up, it flagged there was a problem with syncing and that it would carry out a download.  While doing this it had not synced my recent bookmarks I had added on the machine, so once it had completed the download I managed to lose my recent bookmarks.

This is a very simple tip that I like to do every couple of months to speed up the opening times of iPhoto.  Everytime I carry this out I notice a significant improvement.  I also do this when I upload a large number of photos like I have just done after my holiday.

Before you click on the iPhoto icon then hold down the option (alt)  and the command keys (cmd), for new mac users they look like......
