I'm fairly certain that some of the most popular hacks and tweaks for Windows 8 will be those that bring back the typical Start Menu interface that users have become accustomed to in previous Windows releases.

One of the useful features on Linux is being able to use the Tail command to retrieve just the last few lines of a log or text file. When you're dealing with a log file that is several gigabytes in size having that capability is extremely handy. While it's not available natively in Windows there is an application called Tail for Win32 that will provide some similar functionality.

When the iPhone first came out there were no third-party applications allowed, and as a result users had to resort to "web apps" as a way to quickly access the tools they used the most. Apple tried to make this a little more convenient by letting them bookmark sites on the home screen, but in the end all that bookmark really did was open a new tab in Safari.

I'm an undeniable fan of Grooveshark and have gotten quite a few people hooked on their free web-based interface for listening to their favorite tunes. Not everyone likes to stream music though, and that's when they turn to the free GrooveDown app to provide search and download capabilities powered by Grooveshark's vast library.

A few weeks ago I was talking to someone who had said what a pain it was to manage their iPhone and iPad photos in bulk. They told me that there were about 20 pictures they took that didn't turn out well, and in order to remove them from their phone they had to go through and delete them one-by-one. [...]

I've heard of people getting some great deals on hotels around the world thanks to Priceline. The site lets you place a bid for a hotel based on the location, date of travel, number of stars, and a few other factors. The catch is that if you place your bid too low it likely won't be accepted, and you won't be able to place another bid for 24-hours unless you change some of the criteria.

If you are a Windows Media Center user the chances are pretty good that you've already heard of My Channel Logos. With this beautiful addition to Media Center you'll see logos for each of the channels when viewing the television guide. It's one of the most popular add-ons for Windows Media Center, and the developer has done a great job of keeping it up-to-date.

I've been spending some time optimizing my Windows 7 Media Center installation, and in doing so I've found some good information that has helped me pinpoint why I don't always see perfectly smooth video when streaming to my Xbox 360.

In August of last year, Mozilla research showed that one of the reasons why people don't want to upgrade to Firefox 3 is the Awesome Bar. When you're typing in your address bar, the Awesome Bar displays suggestions based on your browsing history and bookmarks. This is a great time saver...

Our internet connections have become faster over the years, but with that our need for speed increased too. And sadly, having a fast internet connection does not mean the server you're downloading from gives you the speed you pay for. That's where download managers come in.

Sometimes, Apple sneaks in new features into their software without ever making a big deal out of it. When iTunes 9 was released, they made it possible to add files to iTunes without even launching the app. The secret to this trick not as far-fetched as you might think...

It's a common problem among Firefox power users: you've been surfing the web for some time and all of a sudden Firefox's memory footprint goes through the roof. And although Mozilla's developers do their best to ensure that Firefox is stable, many people play a part in the browser's memory leaks without knowing it.

You may not know this if you haven't used Windows XP (or earlier) in a while, but all Windows versions have a killer feature that lets you launch applications quickly without having to install memory-eating launcher apps.

If you consider your music tastes a little more adventurous than FM radio, you probably already know that the internet is a gold mine for good yet rather unknown music. It has allowed independent bands to flourish and often, they're more than happy to put out some free MP3's to get the word out about their songs.

In 2008, Google said there's no such thing as complete privacy. You're being tracked all over the web by their AdSense ads, by sites that use Google Analytics and - probably the most important - their search engine. But Google Search isn't the only search engine that tracks your behavior.
