class="align-right" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/tumblrlogo_11.png"/>About a week after I wrote my href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/10-tumblr-tips-users/" alt="tumblr blogs">first list of Tumblr tips, the site made changes to its all pervasive Dashboard. The re-design was a welcome facelift for many members, while others lodged some major complaints. Nevertheless, the features of the Dashboard remain basically the same with a few enhancements.

If you’re hopping onto the Tumblr bandwagon—I recommend you do—here are some additional—perhaps advanced—tips you might be interested in after having set up your Tumblr blog and built a following. And don’t worry, none of these tips require that you get your hands dirty with code.

Oh, and by the way, if you haven’t set up your Tumblr blog yet, this href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/how-to-use-tumblr-to-easily-create-a-rich-media-blog/">article will show you how.

Pages and Tags

Let’s return to Tumblr’s Dashboard Preferences, for there are other little tools you might want to enable in there to enhance your blog. I covered few other Preferences features in the previous article.

Pages:

Similar to the WordPress.com, you can add stagnate pages in your Tumblr site. You’re not limited to just your home page. On the Dashboard page, click on the Customize button and select Pages > Add a page. You can add three types of pages: Standard, Custom Layout, and Redirect.

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/customizepages21.png" alt="tumblr blogs" width="500" height="288" />

You can pretty much add anything you like to these pages. Here’s one idea you might find useful.

Tagged Post:

If you get in the habit in tagging your Tumblr blog posts, as discussed in the last article, you can create a page that will show all your posts with a specified tag. So for instance, you might want to highlight all your posts that are mini “essays.” Here’s how to set it up.

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/redirectpage.png" alt="tumblr personal blogs" width="500" height="489" />

Select the “Redirect” page. Now copy and paste the URL for one of the tagged posts that you want inserted into your new page. It should look this—with the name of your blog, followed by “tagged,” and ending with exact name of the tagged posts you want filtered on the page.

style="text-align: center;">http://sampleblog.tumblr.com/tagged/essay

Finally, be sure to select “Show a link to this page,” and type a name for it, which will show up in the menu bar of your homepage. When the page is clicked, it will show all your posts with that designated tag.

More Appearances

While we’re in Tumblr Preferences, let’s click on the Appearance tab and see a few other features that are not turned on by default.

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/appearance.png" alt="tumblr personal blogs" width="297" height="323" />

Show Streampad

If you want to add some musical ambiance to your Tumblr homepage, click the Streampad box, and essentially the plug-in will play songs that have been uploaded to your Dashboard.

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/screenshot640.png" alt="tumblr blog ideas" width="293" height="83" />

Depending on your Tumblr theme, the player should show up at the end of your homepage. If you want to further customize the player, click over to this href="http://www.streampad.com/getit#">Streampad page and follow the directions for making changes and adding the code.

Fixed Sidebar

If keeping visitors and readers focused on the sidebar content of your homepage is important to you, then check this box. It will keep the sidebar in a fixed position, even when readers scroll further down your page to browse all your awesome Tumblr posts.

Small Follow Box

When the “People I Follow” icons get long and unwieldy, clicking this box will put them into a smaller scrolling box for you.

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/smallfollowbox.png" alt="tumblr blog ideas" width="169" height="204" />

Ask Me Widget

If you’re fairly new to Tumblr, you might often see the people you’re following posting a question to others on their Dashboard—in the form of a text box for responding to the question. It’s a great little feature, but it’s not quite obvious how to set it up.

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/askaquestion.png" alt="tumblr blog ideas" width="580" height="294" />

To do so, simply create a Text post, and then type the question you want to ask. Be sure that the question ends in a “? “mark. When you do this, a little box, “Let people answer this”, will appear on the right side of the Dashboard. Click it and add your post like you normally would. The responses will show up in your Inbox. The checkbox will not appear until you put the question mark at the end of your question.

Mobile App

If you’re an iPhone, Android, or BlackBerry user, and a Tumblr addict, you will no doubt want to download the Tumblr app for your mobile device. I find the href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/tumblr/id305343404?mt=8">iPhone version (iTunes Store link) super easy to use. It allows you to both browse your Dashboard as well post Tumblr blogs.

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/screenshot641.jpg" alt="tumblr personal blogs" width="580" height="405" />

Other third-party apps like href="http://www.makeuseof.com/dir/instagram-photo-editing-and-sharing/">Instagram include Tumblr support as well.

Well, that’s it for these round of tips. Tumblr is taking the lead as the fastest growing microblogging site, so many more features and upgrades are sure to be arrive in the coming months.

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/tumblr_july_09_stats2.jpg" alt="tumblr blogs" width="306" height="425" />

class="align-right" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/calculator-title.png" alt="microsoft mathematics"/>Much to the chagrin of students and parents worldwide, it is not unheard of for graphing calculators to cost upwards of $100. Thanks to software, you have a full-featured graphing calculator that’s designed to work just like a hand-held calculator.

With a simple program from Microsoft named href="http://www.microsoft.com/education/products/student/math/default.aspx#overview">Microsoft Mathematics 4.0, you have the full power of a graphing calculator – and more – right at your computer.

Let’s go over some of the neat features this program provides and how it can help with homework or other math functions.

When you launch the program you have an interface that is very similar to any other graphing calculator. You can enter your numbers and calculations directly into the program by either pressing the buttons with your mouse or just typing it in.

id="more-67659"> /> Think of it as the built-in Windows ‘calc’ program on steroids.

You can also draw your calculations and Mathematics will try to decipher your drawing into an equation. This is helpful if you receive an problem but don’t know exactly how to enter it into the program. It works fairly well, but does have some difficulty decoding some more complicated equations.

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/drawing.png" alt="microsoft mathematics" width="235" height="201" />

Of course the core of a graphic calculating program is the graphs it can make. Entering the equations into the “equation” portion of the program allows you to graph multiple lines on the same chart.

Once you get used to the program, you can actually get very fancy with your graphs. Entering the right commands in the software will translate to a graph on the worksheet:

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/worksheet.png" alt="microsoft mathematics 4.0" width="436" height="409" />

Another interesting portion of the program is the equation solver. Once you type in an equation it will help you step through to solve it for one of the variables you have listed. After it is solved, you can then graph it in 2d or 3d to help visualize the equation and learn what it actually does.

If you are interested in learning how you can apply Microsoft Mathematics to help your child or student learn mathematics, Microsoft offers this href="http://www.microsoft.com/education/teachers/guides/mathematics_4.0.aspx">free guide to give you learning ideas.

The Equation Library built into the program also gets you started on some interesting ways you can enter data into the program.

The final feature I’d like to go over is the Triangle Solver. The solver takes all of the legwork out of figuring out the remaining angles or length of a triangle and will also let you know exactly what type of triangle it is.

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/triangle-solver.png" alt="microsoft mathematics" width="332" height="467" />

On a personal note, when I was going through high school I relied heavily on a graphing calculator to do all of my work for me. Although I was very good at translating problems into a format the calculator can read, I ignored the underlying concepts which lead me to receive good grades, at least for the mean time. Once I went to college and was no longer able to use a calculator I had a very tough time adjusting. Please make sure to use this program responsibly and actually learn the underlying principles.

Microsoft Mathematics 4.0 can be downloaded href="http://www.microsoft.com/education/products/student/math/default.aspx#overview">here and is free. It is only available for Windows, however if you have VirtualBox you will be able to run it on any other OS.

Have you used Microsoft Mathematics before? Do you know of some alternative software you can use in place of it? Let us know in the comments below! />

style="border: 0px none;margin-left:20px;float:right;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/youtube-search.jpg" alt="youtube search"/> href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/comprehensive-guide-youtube-player-keyboard-shortcuts/">I love YouTube. I use it for inspiration or to kill an idle hour (which I normally don’t have). I love the variety of user-generated content: different styles, topics and perspectives. I love it that YouTube is huge.

But with the resource being enormous comes one issue: it is almost impossible to search it efficiently. And there are no official guides on how to search YouTube to actually find something.

However, not many people know how flexible YouTube’s search function actually is.

id="more-63993"> /> About 2 years ago (maybe more) Google started operating YouTube search — if you haven’t noticed Google Video Search and YouTube search have even identical (advanced) search options. And with Google coming into play, there turns out to be some really tricky and smart ways to search YouTube using href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/master-the-google-search-like-a-god-save-time/">Google search operators.

The Issue

YouTube (like Google Video Search) has some handy sorting options that allow you to find videos by:

• Relevancy (based on your search query);
• Upload date (to find most recent videos);
• View count (to find the most viewed videos);
• Rating (to find the highest rated videos).

I love using the latter two options to look through the most popular YouTube videos on any topic.

The only issue is that when you sort by anything other than relevancy, the results are likely to be highly irrelevant.

Let’s compare:

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/youtube-search-02.jpg" alt="youtube search" width="550" height="306" />

Sorting makes results absolutely off-topic. Luckily, we do have an option to sort YouTube search results while still getting relevant results: YouTube advanced search operators.

YouTube Advanced Search Operators

I don’t think the search operators I am listing here are anywhere to be found in YouTube’s documentation. All that is listed on the official “Advanced YouTube search” href="http://www.google.com/support/youtube/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=111997">page is the set of the usual search options you see below the search field:

You can filter results by:

• Type of results, such as Videos, Channels, or Playlists
• Subject category
• Video length
• Video quality
• Features, such as Closed captions, Partner videos, or Rentals

However, as we have seen above, filtering and sorting seldom triggers relevant results.

To bypass this issue, you need to use advanced operators which were inherited from Google search and are really very helpful:

1. Use quotes to force the exact match

This operator may come particularly in handy when you are sure which exact key phrases you want to be included into the search results, for example, the name of a movie or a music clip.

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/youtube-search-03.jpg" alt="youtube video search" width="455" height="370" />

2. Use plus (+) sign to force a word in the results

If one of your words gets dropped out from search results, this operator may save a lot of your time. Similarly, you can use the minus (-) sign to force YouTube search to exclude any irrelevant but persistent words from the search results.

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/youtube-search-04.jpg" alt="youtube video search" width="390" height="279" />

3. Force any word to appear in the video title with help of INTITLE: operator

This trick turns out to be very useful if you, for example, keep getting irrelevant results (video pages that only mention your search term in comments or loosely in description).

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/youtube-search-05.jpg" alt="youtube search" width="550" height="263" />

A friend once asked to guide him on his Windows Driver Installation, so we were on the phone for around an hour helping him install device drivers for his freshly installed Windows XP computer. Just 2 days ago another friend asked me the same help. So now I’ve created this guide for easy guide.

Device Manager for me is the best way to troubleshoot windows drivers.

Easiest way to access it is thru Start >> Run, key in devmgmt.msc and hit enter or you can go the gui, follow steps below:

Start >> My Computer, right click then choose properties
System Properties will open, Go to the “Hardware” tab.
Click “Device Manager” then device manager window will open.

One reason you’ll go to advance installation is if easy or automatic installation doesn’t work. Symptoms device driver errors are as follows:

Device is not working.
Yellow punctuation mark on the device in your device manager.

Here is what to do next after getting your Device Manger.

Look for the devices with yellow punctuation mark.
Right click, choose “Update Driver”.
“Hardware Update Wizard” will open. Click “No, not this time” from the selection then click “Next”
Choose “Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)” then click “Next”
Check “Include this location in the search:” Under “Search for the best driver in these locations. “Browse” button will enable. Click “Browse” then Click “Next”
“Browse folder” window will open, browse to the location of your driver.
Here is a good thing about it. “OK” button will not be enabled until it finds a candidate for the device driver.
Click “OK”
“Please wait while the wizard search” this waiting time. 2 to 10 seconds.
Click “Finish” when if finds the driver or search again from other location if unsuccessful.

Tips:

Device manufacturer is always the best place to download driver but 3rd party driver finder is very good on searching for difficult to find drivers.

Every system requires one or the other registry cleaning tool like an advanced registry optimizer. It is necessary to keep your system working fast and efficiently.

However, there are loads and loads of registry cleaning tools available in market. Out of which some are paid, some are free and some come as a part of PC optimization package. You will find that all these work on same thing i.e. registry cleaning, but has different features. Some will have specialized features whereas some may contain only the fundamental things.

You will find that some registry cleaners only remove empty entries, it’s fine, but it is a solution to only part of the problem. There are various other problems that are needed to be tackled by the registry cleaners like, removing outdated driver location, invalid shell extensions, invalid shortcuts and invalid class keys.

A computer system is a system that has built in tools that will help you set and preform optional tasks that you need to do for either a job or school. The Internet has become much more advanced and now computers allow you to experience the right tools to serve and create different ideal tasks that you need to get done. Such tasks as maintaining a checkbook, preparing documents designing different types of slides for presentations at your job and even fan video games at your leisure.

Your computer contains two major sets of tools, software and hardware, and within the two. You can categorize various tools as follows: software, application software, system software, hardware, input devices, output devices, CPU and RAM, storage devices, telecommunications devices, hardware connections. A system or computer can come in a variety of sizes and shapes. In today’s society, the business world has allowed you to find the right computer that will support and that will process needs of millions of people simultaneously. These type of computers are called minicomputers, mainframe computers, and super computers that allow millions of people to surf and work simultaneously. If you have a personal preference there are a wide range of options including desktop computers, the notebook computers, and also digital assistants.

Software is the set of instructions that your computer hardware executes to process information for you. If you make a list of the reasons why you want a computer, those reasons will focus mainly on software. For example, you may see a, I want to keep a home budget, write term papers, generate graphs, and surf the net. You certainly wouldn’t say, I want to use a mouse. Of course, you may say, I want to print high quality documents, so I can turn them in for school projects. But you have to create those documents first, and you do. That’s using software.

A system software is the software that details how your computer carries out technology specific tax. These tasks include getting your computer going when you turn it on writing information to a disk, checking for viruses, and a host of other activities. Because system software deals with technology specific tax, we say that it’s the layer of software closest to your computer.

The application software part of a computer is the software that will allow you to perform specific tasks, such tasks as writing papers or term papers for school, surfing the Internet, keeping a budget at your home and creating a slideshow presentation for your job.
