Angry Bird Arrive in Chrome



If you are using Google Chrome as your Internet Browser, then the famous Angry Bird is arrived.

One of Google's big announcements this week was the launch of Chrome Angry Birds, a port of the hugely popular mobile game to Google's browser. But calling it "Chrome Angry Birds" is missing the point because what's really interesting is that it's a real-time multimedia cross-platform HTML 5 app. It runs fine in MSIE 9 and Firefox on Windows (sound and save games included) and I've heard reports it works in Safari on Macs, too. And because the game is based on open browser technologies, we can easily pull it apart and see how it's built just like we've been pulling apart web pages since 1993 via the magic of "view source".

Let's check out!

Of course, Google Chrome only, if you do not have Chrome, download from here (I think it is the best browser ):

Remote control your PC

Remote control my computer? Forward the port? I am not understand the tutorial from the Internet. I want a simple way on control that. If you are willing to find a simple way, then try the following software. No knowledge need, no port forward. If your computer can connect to the Internet, then everything will work fine.

TeamViewer is a simple and fast solution for remote control, desktop sharing and file transfer that works behind any firewall and NAT proxy. To connect to another computer just run TeamViewer on both machines without the need of an installation procedure. With the first start automatic partner IDs are generated on both computers. Enter your partner's ID into TeamViewer and the connection is established immediately. With over 100 million users TeamViewer is a standard tool to give support and assistance to people in remote locations. The software can also be used for presentations, where you can show your own desktop to a partner.

Check out TeamViewer from here:

Yes, TeamViewer is easy to use, but whether it is secure.  God knows. This is because all the connection between your computers will be drive to the TeamViewer's server first, and personal information may/may not be collected by them. However, If you're looking for feature-packed remote control, desktop sharing, and presentation software, TeamViewer  is both the simplest and most powerful option. Businesses will have to shell out a bunch up front, but individuals can use it free. Either way, it's a very good deal.

Multiple internet connections / NIC into single PC

Most of us have more than one internet connections these days.  So how can we use wireless network and local network together?

You can try a freeware called ForceBindIP. ForceBindIP allows you to force almost any Windows application into using a specific interface / IP address. This is done through the use of an injected DLL that intercepts Winsock function calls and (re)binds any sockets that the target application tries to use.

Connect your PC to both the connections. I connect one via Ethernet port and the other via wifi. Since I want all applications (except one) to use the Ethernet, I connect that one first, and start the applications which I want to use that with. Second, I connect to the wifi one.
1. Open the command prompt (Go to Start->Run, and type cmd).
2. Type ipconfig and press enter.
3. Find out your wireless IP, for example my ip is 192.168.1.3
4. Find out the path to the application you want to open linked to this new Internet connection. For example, “C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe”
5. Back to the command window, type :
ForceBindIP -i 192.168.2.2 "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"

It should be fine.
