Vimium Keyboard Shortcuts.

As seen in the screenshot on this paragraph, the supplement provides pre-configured shortcuts for all navigation actions. The list is long and possibly not all we serve or interest, but it is good to have on hand to enhance our experience mouse free.

Vimium

provides many shortcuts that the use of some letters is repeated. To differentiate other action must be careful to use upper or lower case. For example, pressing the letter lowercase “o” can open a URL, a bookmark or a saved item in the history. With the letter capital “O” (Shift + o), meanwhile, do the same actions but in a new tab.

good thing about the extension is that if it costs us aprendernos all commands, we can consult at any time by pressing “?” . Then I leave a list of some of the most useful shortcuts Vimium.

  • j: Scroll Down;
  • k: Scroll up;
  • h: Scroll left;
  • l: Right shift;
  • r: Refresh page;
  • yy: Copy the current URL to clipboard
  • f: Copy a link in the page to the clipboard;
  • f: Opening a link in the current tab;
  • F: Open a link in a new tab;
  • T: Search between open tabs;
  • b: Open a bookmark;
  • B: Open a bookmark in a new tab;
  • H: Go to the previous page in the history;
  • L: Go to the next page in the history;
  • K: Go to the tab on the right;
  • J: Go to the tab on the left;
  • t: New tab;
  • x: Close current tab;
  • X: Restore closed tab.

These are just some of the options but can see the other directly from the. Importantly manipulates how Vimium links. Pressing “F” to open one in a new tab, for example, we see that all the links in the page visited are highlighted and given their own keyboard shortcuts .

mediafire Mediafire, the only alternative to the new Mega Kim Dotcom A few days ago Kim Dotcom wounded giant announced its comeback with the housing system and file download Mega , a year after the closure of Megaupload on January 19, 2012. With 50 GB of free storage space, this site has left far behind other services like Dropbox or Google Drive, as seen in the warm collection has received from users. As many as 250,000 new subscribers on the first day.

During this long time we have lived without Megaupload, however, have been gathering momentum alternatives in the area of ​​file storage , perhaps not so well known. One is Mediafire , probably one of the best hosting services and downloading files that exist in the cloud and now the only alongside Mega offering 50 GB free version.


Mediafire: a server with 50 gigabytes of free space

When

fell Megaupload Rapidshare some platforms as got a big push. Millions of users who used the service for downloads Dotcom lost their shared files and had to find an alternative that would allow them to return to store and download files in the cloud.

Other lesser known

as Mediafire have also had a great reception. According to Complete.com, by December 2012 had just under 3 million views, but has 150 million monthly users.

620x359 Mediafire mediafire1, the only alternative to the new Mega Kim Dotcom

Mediafire

born in The Woodlands, Texas, in August 2006 by the hand of its president and CEO, Derek Labian , along with other experts as Todd Faulk and Tom Langridge. His project was created when Megaupload had been a year in operation and has been climbing to stand next to major companies like Skydrive (Microsoft), Google Drive (Google) or Dropbox (Drew Houston).

Advantages

Mediafire

From the point of view of space, Mediafire is a web host that allows ample storage in the free plan, which amounts to 50 GB free (but before it was unlimited). That certainly becomes now its main advantage and the most widely spoken these days.

mediafire3 Mediafire, the only alternative to the new Mega Kim Dotcom

Another advantage of this application is that it allows to download multiple files simultaneously.

who have used other tools like Fileserve (although it allows them to store 500 GB with the time limit of 90 days) and know how uncomfortable it is not heavy to download more than one file simultaneously.

This service also has a great interface, very intuitive, clean and easy to use, something I always appreciate users. Mediafire is also available for Android and iOS , where you can upload photos and videos directly to the implementation of Mobile Media Fire. Then also features Media Fire Express , a software to install on your computer and you can upload files from your computer for Windows and Mac, Ubuntu and Fedora.

Disadvantages

Mediafire

Media Fire

worked before close of Megaupload with it the same system: files in the cloud that everyone could see and without registering. Then they decided to change its policy to limit the time of download speed and force people to register to upload files, becoming something like Dropbox but with more space. Although it has a large storage space, has three small problems that make it less attractive.

The first is that although it can accommodate 50 GB time long term accommodation is limited . After a time, inactive accounts (in which the user has not entered one month) are deleted after receiving four notices. In principle it should not be a problem, since in itself does not mean that there is a time limit, as it does with Fileserve.

Then there is

limit file size to 200 Mb , which can be very uncomfortable and is certainly its main disadvantage. Considering that the cheapest premium version costs $ 1.5 per month, you can upgrade to 1 Gb, which is coming to be a little more interesting.

mediafire4 Mediafire, the only alternative to the new Mega Kim Dotcom

Finally, it is noteworthy as the last paste Media Fire Express only allows you to upload files from your desktop , but there is no synchronization with folders you uploaded as Dropbox and other services.

Mediafire

vs. other services

Media Fire is still an excellent way to store files in the cloud, but now let’s see how is the landscape of free storage after the eruption of Mega in performance.


Mega



Dropbox

Server Space Timeout rise Size Installation Folder
50 Gb Unlimited Unlimited Not installed
Mediafire 50 Gb inactive users 200 Mb not synchronized
2-18 Gb Unlimited Unlimited
Google Drive 5 Gb Unlimited Unlimited
SkyDrive 7 Gb Unlimited 2 GB
Within

free plans, the differences are not so great except those little touches that make some people prefer worst but most popular services and with a nicer interface. For Mediafire , it is clear that far surpassed its competitors in space issue, but limit the size of files that can be raised is one of the clearest disadvantages that now begin to take its toll, as announced predictions, Kim Dotcom has come charging back and intend to stay.

Interesting article sent to us directly Benjamin Kerensa, Community Evangelist on Ubuntu, and yesterday held an exchange of emails with Mark Shuttleworth on the issue of inclusion of results Amazon in the Home Lens of the new Unity Dash 6.6.0.

 amazon unity 500x283 Amazon Results in Unity, only a first step

A good example of an interesting use of the results of the Dash Amazon: search for books on Ubuntu

As you know, one of the novelties of the new version of Unity is the presentation of results in our generic searches Amazon in the Dash, which is not liked too many users my not-particularly-and convinced me that has provoked suspicions about the privacy and security of those transactions , that Ubuntu could turn into an interesting source of information to Amazon.

Mark Shuttleworth

tried to reassure users stating that privacy is totally not send data on those searches Amazon, as explained one of the developers of that property, and that is expected a secure protocol is integrated into such pursuits soon , but also, as he said, the idea is to offer the full search, which allows us to find not only documents on your computer, but services and products directly from Dash if they so wish.

Benjamin Kerensa

explains in his post that although he believes that the results for the shopping section are interesting, much work remains to be done, but it will be very powerful power make price comparisons of products online shopping directly from the Dash.

course that option is curious, but I still think it should have clarified Shuttleworth why Canonical takes Amazon to provide results, something that has never been clear. If Ubuntu takes a commission, as some readers comentábais in the previous post, perfect after all Canonical is a business and the goal is to make money . But it would be recommended that this decision would admit and explicasen more clearly.

For those who do not wish Amazon results on Dash, the quickest way is uninstall “Shopping Lens on Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get remove unity-lens-shopping

Something that will save you from those results if you wish. It is normal for these early confusions occur with so striking a feature, and perhaps there was a little miscommunication by Canonical . Hopefully the best of them, for sure we will see a Dash increasingly powerful and versatile.

Canonical developers a few months ago had an amazing idea: turn a smartphone last batch on our desktop PC using the Ubuntu software for Android, you can enjoy as much of Android Ubuntu according to need.

Ubuntu Ubuntu for Android Android could be available this year, but only for manufacturers

the Computex trade show being held in Taipei one of the heads of Canonical, John Barnard, said the development of this solution was ongoing, although neither he nor Mark Shuttleworth confirmed a specific date, indicating that Ubuntu for Android could “possibly” before the end of the year .

course, as already mentioned in the initial announcement of this development, Canonical does not intend to “liberate” Ubuntu for Android so you can use any interested party: will be manufacturers who will the option to preinstall on their smartphones, so that at least in the first instance you want to harness the potential of this interesting concept will have to buy one of the terminals to come with that feature.

not think it means a lot: in forums such as the famous XDA Developers often achieve what seemed complicated, so maybe with a little luck that wants to impose this limitation is seen surpassed Canonical in the interest of the user community and the ability of some cibergurús Android community.

The development team of this project has announced that as of version 12.04 of the distribution will launch a cycle in which only publish new distributions LTS , which means that each new Mythbuntu distro come every two years.

 Mythbuntu Mythbuntu lts LTS versions only have

This decision will not lead to radical changes MythTV fans as packets of this application will remain available for Ubuntu non-LTS , and you can install as usual.

The reason for this measure is the lack of sufficient staff, “ISO post pictures requires a lot of work for testing, correct errors, etc., and the Mythbuntu team is made up a small group of volunteers. The time spent working in publishing new ISOs can be exploited to improve the software. The nature of MythTV and use of the resources we have developed in the past allow us to migrate to this plan long distance with minimal impact to end users “.

reality is entirely logical decision, especially considering that the very development of MythTV is slowly but surely. In any case, if you want collaborate with the project you can join the conversation on IRC channel # ubuntu-mythtv-dev on irc.freenode.net or apuntaros to the mailing list, not to mention take a look at your page to work, always in English.
