DealExtreme – online shop for gadgets

My friend Adi (he also writes here) recommended me an online store that you can but hundreds of gadgets for very very cheap price and free shipping!! Its name is DealExtreame.

 

Since then I made several transactions and I’m very happy about the stuff I received. And one of the best, at least for me is that you pay with PayPal. So you don’t need to give you credit card to this Hong-Kong based online shop.

Here are several items I bought:

	2-in-1 LED + Pointer Flashlight 4 PACKS $4.78 This is the first item I bought. It is a nice led+laser keychain and I gave the other 3 to my family.
	LED Headlamp 8 LED $5.21 Where can you find such cheap Led Headlamp. I used it last when we went hiking and entered to unlighted cave. It gave very bright light. picture from the cave
	Mini Lightsabre LED Keychain $1.76 I ordered this gadget in order to put it in my bag, so when I’m going to trek and I’ll to look for stuff at night in my bag I won’t have to use the flash light.

There are more stuff that I ordered but write about them next time. So if you are going to buy something, first check this site and then decide were to buy it.

In case you didn't know, Facebook sometimes uses your profile picture in advertisement impressions shown to other Facebook users.

You can control the exposure of your picture from your settings, but by default Facebook is allowed to do that.

Click on Settings up at the top right corner (where you see the "log out" link).

Firefox Add-ons – IE Tab

Even these days when the share of Internet Explorer is declining, there are sites that weren't built according standards, but were built, designed and tested specifically for Internet Explorer. I really hate those sites. If you are building a site don’t just limit your visitors to be IE users. Build it using the web standards and it will work for the modern browsers (IE 8, Firefox, Safari, Chrome and Opera).

For now there is a workaround for those sites that work only in IE. If you use Firefox there is add-on called IE Tab. When you visit a site that works well only in IE, just click on add-on IE icon and Firefox will change the current tab to IE that is embedded in Firefox.

Same site in Firefox. Left displayed in IE Tab, right regularly.

Firefox Add-ons - Flashblock

We are starting a series that covers Firefox add-ons. Firefox add-ons is one of the best features that come with firefox. You can browse through a vast collection of add-ons here, and start benefit more from your browser.

Today we will show you a must have add-on called flashblock. This add-on replace all the flash animations in the site with an empty white box and “play” icon inside. Only when you click on the play button the flash animation start to play. That way all the CPU-hungry flash advertisements are removed from the site, and the page loads much faster. When you click play then you see your desired flash animation. Another feature when you are tired on clicking play is the ability to add a site to a white list so each time you enter this specific site flashblock will be disabled and all the flash animations will work regularly.

Install flashblock and enjoy cleaner (ads-free) and faster internet browsing experience.
