WordPress 2.9 Carmen Now Available

4196599585 d3383d3e2a 300x300 Wordpress 2.9 Carmen Now Available

Howdy WordPress Lovers!

I woke up in the morning today and as usual I logged into my WordPress admin account and guess what,

I saw this on the top of my admin panel:

4197359026 e9c1a86fc5 o Wordpress 2.9 Carmen Now Available

Hell yeah! WordPress 2.9 has just been launched today. Its called “Carmen” [named in honor of magical jazz vocalist Carmen McRae].

This was the most surprising update for me as WordPress released the ‘WordPress 2.9 RC’ just 2 days back. So what’s new in this version? How is it different from the older ones? WordPress answered these questions like this:

1. Global undo/”trash” feature, which means that if you accidentally delete a post or comment you can bring it back from the grave (i.e., the Trash). This also eliminates those annoying “are you sure” messages we used to have on every delete.

2. Built-in image editor allows you to crop, edit, rotate, flip, and scale your images to show them who’s boss. This is the first wave of our many planned media-handling improvements.

3. Batch plugin update and compatibility checking, which means you can update 10 plugins at once, versus having to do multiple clicks for each one, and we’re using the new compatibility data from the plugins directory to give you a better idea of whether your plugins are compatible with new releases of WordPress. This should take the fear and hassle out of upgrading.

4. Easier video embeds that allow you to just paste a URL on its own line and have it magically turn it into the proper embed code, with Oembed support for YouTube, Daily Motion, Blip.tv, Flickr, Hulu, Viddler, Qik, Revision3, Scribd, Google Video, Photobucket, PollDaddy, and WordPress.tv (and more in the next release).

Well there are more new features and tweaks but the above mentioned are the BIG ones!
Are you a WordPress fanatic?
So what are you waiting for? Go ahead and try “CARMEN”!

Download WordPress 2.9
Yes, I need to tell you one more important thing.

Don’t forget to take a backup of your blog before you upgrade your WordPress!

Happy Blogging!

Hack To Make Free Calls

4187828757 bfd1e477be 284x300 Hack To Make Free Calls

STD call rates are reducing in India every day, but still, they are not free. Today I bring you a hack to make free STD calls. I am exploiting a loophole in Rediff’s ad service. You can search for an ad on Rediff local ads and call the advertiser through Rediff. Rediff will call you first and then connect you with the advertiser of that ad. In this hack you basically need to post one ad, with your phone number. After that, every time you have to call a friend, you can search for that ad and pretend to be your friend. you want to call. Rediff will thus, call you as the advertiser and it will call your friend whose number you provided. Confused? Let me explain it step by step.

2) Click on Post ad (free) button.
3) Fill out the form and enter your Mobile number. Here, you should advertise something which is easier to search.
4) Post your ad and and wait for some time. Usually it takes around 40-45 minutes at max.
5) Search your ad and provide your friend’s number as the number to be connected with advertiser of that ad (you).

That is it. You made a free STD call. The catch is that one call lasts for only 1:30 minutes. Additionally, there is a limit of calls made per ad per week. However, they let you post multiple ads with same mobile number. That is you can do away with this weekly limit easily.

Enable the (Hidden) Administrator Account on Windows 7 or Vista

Many people familiar with prior versions of Windows are curious what happened to the built-in Administrator account that was always created by default. Does this account still exist, and how can you access it?

The account is created in Windows 7 or Vista, but since it’s not enabled you can’t use it. If you are troubleshooting something that needs to run as administrator, you can enable it with a simple command.

Note: You really shouldn’t use this account for anything other than troubleshooting. In fact, you probably shouldn’t use it at all.

Enable Built-in Administrator Account

First you’ll need to open a command prompt in administrator mode by right-clicking and choosing “Run as administrator” (or use the Ctrl+Shift+Enter shortcut from the search box)

4167880129 ee96448fe5 o Enable the (Hidden) Administrator Account on Windows 7 or Vista

Now type the following command:

net user administrator /active:yes

4167880131 d3268d2aca o Enable the (Hidden) Administrator Account on Windows 7 or Vista

You should see a message that the command completed successfully. Log out, and you’ll now see the Administrator account as a choice. (Note that the screenshots are from Vista, but this works on Windows 7 too)

4167880133 c20a5057bc o Enable the (Hidden) Administrator Account on Windows 7 or Vista

You’ll note that there’s no password for this account, so if you want to leave it enabled you should change the password.

Disable Built-in Administrator Account

Make sure you are logged on as your regular user account, and then open an administrator mode command prompt as above. Type the following command:

net user administrator /active:no

4167880135 a6ea2a5bcd o Enable the (Hidden) Administrator Account on Windows 7 or Vista

The administrator account will now be disabled, and shouldn’t show up on the login screen anymore.

How To Access Blocked Websites?

4156187118 79cf2afb81 o 300x291 How To Access Blocked Websites?

How to access blocked websites like Facebook, MySpace, Bebo at school or office?

This article suggests workarounds to help you unblock access to restricted websites at universities, school and offices.

Background: Blocking access to undesirable Web sites has been a common government tactic but China, Iran, Saudi Arabia are believed to extend greater censorship over the net than any other country in the world.

Most of the blocked or blacklisted sites in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and all other GCC countries are about sex, religion, women, health, politics and pop culture. They even block access to websites that sell swimming or bathing suits. In China, websites that talk about sex, Tibet or Democracy are blocked.

Social sites that are often blocked include Google News, Typepad, ebay, Blogger blogs, YouTube, Facebook, Bebo, Myspace, Orkut, MySpace, Pandora, Bebo, Photobucket, Yahoo! Messenger, AOL AIM, Flickr, last.fm, etc.

Proxy websites allows us to bypass our current ISP’s IP and connect to targeted website with a different IP; thus hiding our actual origin from detectable. Internet users use proxy websites for various reasons, some to access websites potentially blocked by their colleges or workplace, some use it to test their scripts. I frequently used them to test geo-location ads or to check if DNS are properly propagated when I adjust their settings.
Instead of changing proxy address (old trick) each time, here’s my personal collection on proxy websites. Full list.

Google Wave Invite Giveaway

4134883667 f72ce3c1f0 300x300 Google Wave Invite Giveaway

I received my supply of invites for Google Wave recently. Its been almost one month since I am using Wave but did not have he capacity to invite others. Today, Google bestowed in me the power to invite 8 people to Google Wave.

For those, unfamiliar with the term, Google Wave is a kind of collaboration tool which works in realtime. What this means is that you can see your friends type each alphabet as and when they type.

I like to call it :

Demise of the Backspace Key

Its a plus point and a negative point also. Imagine, typing something which gets viewed the same instant as you punch in the keys!

Google Wave is still in development phase and it would not be fair to jump to conclusions so soon. To draw an analogy “Who knew twitter could be such a rage?” Let’s wait and watch how Wave matures with time.

For readers of Hacking Articles, I would be giving away Google Wave invites!

How to get Google Wave Invite?

Each participant stands a chance to win a invite to Google Wave on a first-come-first-serve basis. All you have to do is :

READ CAREFULLY

  • Subscribe to HackingArticles via Email [Do remember to confirm your subsciption]
  • Tweet about this Post & follow us on Twitter
  • Join us on Google Friend Connect
  • Leave a comment confirming your entry after you are done with above 3 steps
  • How will I know if I won?

    I will email the winners personally because Wave invites are not sent by Google immediately, it may take a day or two to arrive at your inbox. Google is overworked with wave invites so I’ll confirm the winners with the news till they receive the invite from Google. Just be sure to follow the above mentioned steps in totality.

    How many invites are up for Grabs?

    Originally, Google has granted us with the power to invite 8 people to Wave. As the invites are sent out, the number of available invites will keep reducing so hurry up!

    For proof, image is shown below:

4135637160 27c959f961 Google Wave Invite Giveaway

Number of invites left : 7

All the best guys! See you on Wave.
