How to Create Gmail Data Backup and Restore using Backupify

Posted: 01 Mar 2011 05:42 AM PST


Yesterday it was reported by Google Gmail team that almost 1,50,000 users lost all their valuable data stored on Gmail due to an update bug. Surely they are trying their level best to restore all the user data. If you don't want to take chance with your data and want to take the control in your hands you can use Backupify to create scheduled backup of your Gmail data on the clouds.

How to Create Gmail Backup

  1. As always for any service you need to make an account first, therefore register yourself with Backupify.
    create account
  2. Once you have logged in to your Backupify dashboard select the Gmail Backup service from the list. Its still in beta phase but rest assured, it works like charm.
    backupfy services
  3. In the next step authorize Backupify to access you Gmail data.
    gmail authorise
  4. Now select the data you want to backup periodically like All Mails, Inbox, Sent Items etc. and save the settings.
    gmail backup
  5. Your first periodic Backup will start with in 48 hours. If any time you wish to restore the data you can do so through Backupify archive.

Please do note that you have got only 2GB disk space as a free user there fore I would suggest you to label all your important mails first and then backup the specific label only.

How effective are Torrent Speed Boosters | Truth Behind Fake Booster

Posted: 28 Feb 2011 10:49 PM PST


Torrent Speed Booster, just the name looks fancy and many of us try it blindly in the claim to get 200% boost on current speed. Tried various Torrent Boosting programs but do they really work? Let's have detail to know the truth behind.

I tried many such torrent speed boosters when on Dial Up connection with an hope to get atleast a 5 kb/s boost. But these programs are just a showpiece with graph moving according to speed which in reality is not because of them but original Torrent client.

Torrent Speed Booster

Visual graphics on the program are just for your satisfaction that something is working to get you maximum speed but let me tell you Torrent speed depends on following:

  1. Tracker availability: should be online and working
  2. Number of Seeders and Leechers (also consider their ratio)
  3. Firewall restrictions (Place Torrent client in Trusted group)
  4. ISP / Broadband speed

In Windows XP, there used to half open TCP / IP connection limit which had to be patched but right from XP SP2, its no more required. I guess most of you are ahead that with major share of Windows 7 Users.

How to get maximum possible speed on Torrents

Above factors are responsible for torrent speed and mind you, you cannot get speed more than what your Broadband connection offers. Still, instead of using Torrent speed booster, try these steps to ensure maximum speed.

Configure Port forwarding: You need to configure port forwarding so your router knows that the incoming connections are for Bittorrent and will be allowed through (forwarded) to your computer.

This is probably done automatically via UPnP in most of torrent clients.

Limit upload speed to 40%: Instead of giving equal share of bandwidth to seeding, restrict it so that you can get it on downloading.

Allow Firewall for Torrent clients

Increase number of Connections: by default it is 200 in uTorrent and range should be 150-200

Tracker Selection: Public trackers usually give poor speeds compared to Private trackers, but they have more content. Be wise in selection.

If you think that all the above configurations are fine on your system, I don’t think you need some Torrent speed booster just to show off uselessly.

Speed boosters may not be of any use but you can increase upload ratio on torrent trackers using tools.

P.S. Above mentioned are my experiences and lookout which may vary with your opinions. Feel free to comment if you think so.

Most of us have joined Facebook to connect with our friends. Some to make new friends. Facebook has enabled us to be in touch with those people with whom we had lost contact a long time ago. Old school pals rediscovered, old crushes found out and a lot more.

However, you come to know from a mutual friend that another friend of yours is getting married. He had updated his post as such, but you never saw any such thing on your newsfeed even though he is on your friends list.

What has happened is that, Facebook by default shows you updates of those friends with whom you have interacted recently. Today we show you how to change this so you never miss an important update.

Login to your Facebook account.

In your Newsfeed, click on the small icon beside Most Recent to get a drop down menu.
