You can use Tinychat for video, text and microphone conferencing whether for business or with friends. With no download necessary, Tinychat is a great alternative to Skype, allowing up to 12 broadcasts. Just make a room then send the link to those you want to invite to video conference.

Although the interface is simple, there are a couple steps in order to get started with your video conference room. Name a chatroom and click create, make a screen name, password, enter your email, check the over 18 box and enter the captcha. The “Start Broadcasting” button at the top left gives the option of video camera, microphone or both. You can even import other camera options with an application from manycam.com to change lens options or add a tropical background to yourself.

Tinychat, by allowing multiple broadcasts at once makes communication in real time easy. Change your text color with the command /color= or change your nickname by double clicking on your name. Tinychat supports multiple browsers, but perhaps not the new beta version of IE9. Try out Tinychat to talk to clients or friends and get your video on today!

Some tinychat commands:
/color (changes the color of your chat)
/topic this is the room topic (changes the room topic, if you are a room operator)
/msg nickname this is private (sends a private message to another user in the room)
/ignore nickname (blocks their chat messages from appearing on your screen)
/ban nickname (kicks and bans the user from the room, if you are a room operator)
/banlist (displays the ban/forgive list, if you are a room operator)
/oper nickname (makes that user a room operator like you)
/broadcast nickname (allows that user to broadcast)
/close nickname (closes that user’s broadcast if you had allowed them)

The new iPhone 4G released earlier this month promises to be an excellent upgrade from the iPhone 3GS released a year ago. The iPhone 4G comes in a 16GB model for about $199 and a 32GB model at about $299 in black or white. The iPhone 3G no longer will be manufactured and the iPhone 3GS will now sell around $99.

When viewing websites on these future devices being invented, content may display differently than desired. With the website design methods applied by CodeRepair, you can be assured your website will display properly today as well as on future devices yet to come.

Have a look at the video about the new Dell Streak.

There was a need for a new custom CMS website design template for my site and a cleaner layout for easier navigation.  I decided to do an entirely new design and change a few things around for the desired look.  Compare the old home page at the left of this blog post and the new one to the right.  By moving the sidebar from the left to the right, using a lighter scheme of colors and changing the fonts, button styles and background, this is a look that I can be proud of to represent my business.

In order to solve the situation with having a clean, easy to navigate website, moving the Custom Google Search Box to the top of the sidebar seemed like a good idea.  Also now it’s easy to add different items into the sidebar exclusive to certain sections of my website.  This clean layout with lighter colors gives my website visitors a more pleasant browsing experience.

As a result, by using a new custom CMS design template for my website, navigation is easier and an improved browsing experience is attained.  Customizing the sidebar for each section is the next step, but for now, enjoy exploring my site for more tips and advice on small business website design.

Finding the distance between cities is rather easy with the resources that are online now. Free distance calculator websites can be used anytime you would like to plan long trips or just calculate the distance between cities.

Simply choose a starting city and destination city and these distance calculator websites estimate the distance between the two either in kilometers or miles. In some cases these sites can even calculate the distance between cities either driving or as a straight line.

Most of these distance calculators now support locations worldwide, not just within the US. These services are provided for free with unlimited access. TravelMath Flight Distance Calculator also offers other options such as flight time, closest airport, driving or flight distance, drive time, hotels in the area, major cities, time difference, fuel costs of driving, flight emissions and latitude/longitude.

Sometimes translating a language online could be difficult if you don’t know what language you are trying to translate. These language detecting tools make the task much easier by telling you the name of that foreign language. Then once you identify what language you are trying to translate from, you could use these tools to translate text and website pages.

Simply copy and paste the text into the search box of these language identifiers in order to be on your way to translating unidentified foreign languages. Some of the most popular tools I have found online include Google Translate, Whatlanguageisthis.com, and Polyglot 3000.

Of these three tools for translating text, Polyglot 3000 can recognize the most languages overall, about 400. This is the only downloadable desktop tool of the three, so you don’t need to be online to use it. All three of these foreign language detectors are free to use for an unlimited amount of time.

RapidShare’s online file transfer system is both free and easy to use. Ususally trying to send large files via email could be a problem because most services only allow files of about 10 megabytes at a time to be attached to an email. RapidShare makes it possible to send up to 200 megabytes at a time to anyone you want to online.

Instead of sending a large amount of files in multiple emails to someone, RapidShare makes it easy to send the entire group at once. This free service is easy to use and even has an online video tutorial that makes it even easier.

Simply upload a file and send the link to the person you want to send the file to, and you can delete your files any time you like. Read more about RapidShare in the resources section of Coderepair. Take advantage of this easy and free way to transfer files online.

Blackle and Black Google are the new energy saving search engines powered by Google Custom Search. By displaying a black background and font color for search results, Blackle.com and Black Google could save 750 megawatt-hours per year, and there’s nothing wrong with using energy saving techniques.

This concept is valuable because even though the energy savings are small individually, they add up significantly. Using a search engine with a black background reminds us that staying conscious of energy saving techniques is important. By displaying darker colors, computer monitors could consume less energy, and Blackle’s homepage displays a count of how many megawatt-hours are saved by utilizing this search engine for a home page.

Using energy saving techniques with a search engine displayed in black that gives the same search results could be another step towards saving the resources we need to preserve. The concept is that if more people use this search engine then we can use the energy saved for other purposes.
