				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sharing is caring. As much as we love to view our favorite photos, we do the same when sharing them with our folks. There are hundreds (or maybe thousands?) of image sharing websites available out there now that allow you to easily upload your files and share them with your friends and family. For instance Instagram has become a limelight of many people&#8217;s interest lately. If you use multiple photo sharing and social media websites, you may want a cloud data management tool instead that can help you with your online image galleries. Previously, we covered an application for Windows called Migratr that <a href="http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/migratr-download-and-upload-photos-to-image-sharing-services/">lets you move these pictures to popular photo sharing services</a> including Flickr, Google Picasa, Photobucket and so on. Another one such service that i came across today is <strong>Pi.pe</strong>. It is a web service that allows you to transfer hundreds of images and videos between multiple social media networks and image uploading websites including Facebook, Flickr, Instagram, MySpace, Picasa, Photobucket and more. Details to follow.</p>
<p><span id="more-119046"></span><div id="single-paragraph-add"></div></p>
<p>The web service provides you with a five step process to select the source service, select the images and videos, and transfer them to the target accounts. You can sign in using your Google or Facebook account. In the first step, select the source account that contains your images.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="Mozilla Firefox_2012-06-04_15-05-48" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Mozilla-Firefox_2012-06-04_15-05-48.png" alt="Mozilla Firefox_2012-06-04_15-05-48" width="660" height="465" border="0" /></p>
<p>When you select a service, it lets you choose the folders/albums containing the images and videos you want to transfer them to the required target accounts.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="Mozilla Firefox_2012-06-04_15-09-09" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Mozilla-Firefox_2012-06-04_15-09-09.png" alt="Mozilla Firefox_2012-06-04_15-09-09" width="660" height="465" border="0" /></p>
<p>Switch the view to Detailed View from the top right corner to select/deselect individual images and videos for transferring.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="Mozilla Firefox_2012-06-04_15-11-49" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Mozilla-Firefox_2012-06-04_15-11-49.jpg" alt="Mozilla Firefox_2012-06-04_15-11-49" width="660" height="468" border="0" /></p>
<p>The third step allows you to edit the details of the selected items and lets you delete any unwanted items from the transfer list.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="Mozilla Firefox_2012-06-04_15-14-40" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Mozilla-Firefox_2012-06-04_15-14-40.png" alt="Mozilla Firefox_2012-06-04_15-14-40" width="660" height="483" border="0" /></p>
<p>Next up, you have to select the destination account for the pictures and videos. The service allows you choose multiple destinations and transfer selected files to specified social media/photo sharing website. It&#8217;s worth mentioning here that if the target account doesn&#8217;t support files you want to move, it will automatically skip all the unsupported files.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="Mozilla Firefox_2012-06-04_15-17-22" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Mozilla-Firefox_2012-06-04_15-17-22.png" alt="Mozilla Firefox_2012-06-04_15-17-22" width="660" height="466" border="0" /></p>
<p>The last step gives you a summary of the transfer process. You can view the source location and the target locations before starting the data transfer process.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="Mozilla Firefox_2012-06-04_15-18-42" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Mozilla-Firefox_2012-06-04_15-18-42.png" alt="Mozilla Firefox_2012-06-04_15-18-42" width="660" height="467" border="0" /></p>
<p>As of this writing, the app is in private beta, and you need to sign up for the service using email address to get invited. It also doesn&#8217;t have any desktop client and the entire thing works from web API.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Normally, whenever you want to take a better look at a particular image or link on Reddit, you have to open it in a new tab, and then switch tabs in order to return to the main page, which is neither convenient nor efficient. <strong>Seeit!</strong>, a Chrome extension, solves this common problem by providing you with preview capabilities for Reddit. The extension adds a button to the URL bar for all Reddit pages, and allows you to view images and read articles in a scrollable, resizable pop-up window by hovering over their links. Not only does it let you access content on the same page, but also lets you minimize interesting images/articles to the bottom of the website, so you can return to them at a later time.</p>
<p><span id="more-114272"></span>After installing the extension, simply hover your mouse over a link and wait for a few seconds for the content to load. The image/article will then be displayed in a pop-up window right next to the link. You can even view content in full-screen, or resize the window according to your needs. Additionally, you may minimize multiple windows to the bottom of the screen, so you can get back to them at a later time.<div id="single-paragraph-add"></div></p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border-width: 0px;" title="image" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/image5.png" alt="image" width="660" height="574" border="0" /></p>
<p>This nifty little tool retrieves articles in a scrollable pop-up window, which are displayed using Instapaper. With it, you will be able to read full-length articles without opening them in new tabs or windows.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border-width: 0px;" title="articles preview" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/articles-preview.png" alt="articles preview" width="660" height="456" border="0" /></p>
<p>SeeIt! lets you open previews to links after a set amount of time, which can be changed from <em>Options</em>. You can also change the color of the previewed links and use Instapaper to open webpages. Moreover, you can either minimize or close existing previews when you preview a new link.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border-width: 0px;" title="select options" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/select-options.png" alt="select options" width="660" height="433" border="0" /></p>
<p>SeeIt! works perfectly and completely changes the way you browse Reddit. If you&#8217;re an avid Redditor, do give it a try &#8211; you won&#8217;t be disappointed.</p>
<p><a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ofmfmkbdklpcoappbnhagfgeppimeoln?utm_source=chrome-ntp-icon" target="_blank">Install SeeIt! For Google Chrome</a></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Organizing multiple tasks and actually getting them done on time is not easy, but with <strong>KabanFlow,</strong> you can easily keep your task list organized and get a quick overview of your current work situation. It is an intelligent web app that is free to use, and once you’ve signed up for it, you can create boards, add tasks, assign them to others, move tasks across different categories, manage subtasks, add comments and much more. The app allows you to create as many <em>shared</em> or <em>private</em> boards as you like. When working in a team, whenever someone adds, deletes or moves a task, the changes can be viewed by all the other team members in real time. KabanFlow allows you to observe tasks that are in progress, completed on the present day and otherwise-done. Additionally, the app supports the popular Pomodoro technique for time management.</p>
<p><span id="more-114245"></span>After signing up for the service, you will be able to sort and arrange your tasks into four different columns, viz. <em>To-do</em>, <em>Do Today</em>, <em>In Progress</em> and <em>Done, </em>along with the option of adding new columns. Moreover, you can drag tasks from one column to another, and edit or delete them. When a subtask has been completed, you can use the check box to mark it such.<div id="single-paragraph-add"></div></p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="board" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/board.png" alt="board" width="660" height="268" border="0" /></p>
<p>Adding tasks is very simple; all you have do is click the<em> (+)</em> button for a particular column, and add a <em>Name </em>and <em>Description </em>for the task. You can also select a <em>Color </em>and add a <em>Time estimate </em>(optional). Each new task you add can be assigned to different group members, and <em>Subtasks </em>can also be added for each individual task.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="add task" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/add-task.png" alt="add task" width="425" height="442" border="0" /></p>
<p>The <em>Administration</em> panel allows you manage columns, users and boards. You can enable or disable multiple options for each column, such as <em>Show name of the responsible user, Show subtasks expanded, Show time spent, Show time estimate </em>etc.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="settings" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/settings1.png" alt="settings" width="660" height="494" border="0" /></p>
<p>The <em>Pomodoro</em> technique requires you to work with full focus for about 25 minutes before you take a short break, then work another 25 minutes, followed by another short break and so on. In order to use the Pomodoro timer, simply click a particular task on the board and it will automatically be added to the timer.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="timer" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/timer.png" alt="timer" width="660" height="330" border="0" /></p>
<p>KabanFlow works seamlessly and lets you manage your tasks more effectively. The added bundling of the Pomodoro technique is just another edge that you get, and it won&#8217;t hurt to give this quite-useful web app a try!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Gmail is becoming an increasingly popular email service. When Google launched it back in 2004, no body knew it would receive such mainstream acceptance.  Right now, it is the 2nd largest email service around and time is not far for it, to claim the 1st spot. Albeit Gmail provide a lucid user experience, various tweaks and tips make it more robust. Keyboard shortcut support is a rather unknown feature of Gmail. If you love using keyboard shortcuts, you must know how convenient it is to use hotkeys to perform mouse-intensive tasks. If you&#8217;re an avid Gmail user who spends the better half of the day managing emails, then you might want to use hotkeys to quickly navigate between mailboxes (<em>Inbox, Sent Mail, Drafts</em> etc.), and other Gmail sections including <em>Contacts</em> and <em>Tasks</em>. Gmail natively supports quite a few hotkeys used to jump between different Gmail pages &amp; sections, and even allows users to create custom shortcuts for performing routine tasks. In what follows, we will let you know how you can enable keyboard shortcuts in Gmail and create custom hotkeys to quickly perform your routine tasks without loosing focus on your everyday computer work.</p>
<p><span id="more-114088"></span><div id="single-paragraph-add"></div></p>
<p>By default, the keyboard shortcuts are not enabled in Gmail. In order to enable shortcuts, you need to open Settings window and then head over to General tab, and enable <em>Keyboard shortcuts On</em> option.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="Settings - fawadmir@gmail" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Settings-fawadmirgmail.png" alt="Settings - fawadmir@gmail" width="660" height="299" border="0" /></p>
<p>The list of keyboard shortcuts can be viewed by pressing the “<strong>Shift + ?</strong>” hotkey combination. The shortcuts are neatly divided into separate categories including Jumping, Threadlist Selection, Navigation, Application and Actions.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="Inbox (100) - " src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Inbox-100-fawadmirgmail.jpg" alt="Inbox (100) -" width="660" height="333" border="0" /></p>
<p>That’s not all, other than the built-in shortcuts, Gmail also allows you to create custom shortcuts. To create custom shortcuts, open the Settings window and head over to the Labs tab. Under <em>Gmail Labs: Some Crazy Experimental Stuff</em>, search for Custom Keyboard, select <em>Enable </em>from Custom keyboard shortcuts section, and click <em>Save Changes</em>.</p>
<p><a href="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Settings-Custom-Keyboard1.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-114116" title="Settings-Custom-Keyboard" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Settings-Custom-Keyboard1.png" alt="" width="660" height="419" /></a></p>
<p>A new tab named Keyboard Shortcuts will be added in the Settings window. It contains a list of all the shortcuts offered by Gmail. You can, either replace the default shortcut key for an action, or set a secondary shortcut for it. After you have configured all the required shortcuts, click Save Changes.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s always more convenient if, instead of opening social media websites in multiple windows or tabs, you&#8217;re allowed to view all your social network feeds and updates from one central location. <strong>Streamified</strong> is an extension for Chrome that gives you an overview of your social networks as well as RSS feeds within Google+. It saves you the trouble of having to visit each social media website by letting you view all the activity from a single window. The extension supports Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Tumblr, Instagram &amp; Google Reader; feeds from all these networks and services can be added to your Google+ stream. This will not only simplify the process of sharing images and links with others, but also allow you to quickly update your status across all selected social media accounts. In short, Streamified provides a one-stop solution to keep tabs on all important social media feeds. More after the break.</p>
<p><span id="more-113763"></span>To start off, click the button in the toolbar and start configuring Streamified by connecting your favorite social networks. You will find a <em>Add New Stream </em>button at the left side of the <em>Streamified Settings </em>page. Click this button and a panel with a number of social networks will open at the left. Just select the required social media platforms and then grant access to them to view all selected social media feeds from Streamified interface. You can also set <em>Animations</em> for <em>New Posts </em>and <em>Post Updates </em>notifications from the respective dropdown menus on this same settings page.<div id="single-paragraph-add"></div></p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="add streams" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/add-streams.png" alt="add streams" width="660" height="311" border="0" /></p>
<p>To keep your Google+ feed from getting too cluttered, Streamified allows you to customize each social network by enabling or disabling various options such as <em>News Feed, Wall, Mentions, Timeline, Links back </em>etc.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="added streams" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/added-streams.png" alt="added streams" width="660" height="391" border="0" /></p>
<p>Once you&#8217;ve configured all the settings, all feeds you&#8217;ve added will start appearing in your Google+ feed. If you want to view items from a single feed without leaving Google+, click the Home icon and select a feed to view items from it exclusively.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="button" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/button.png" alt="button" width="660" height="266" border="0" /></p>
<p>You will also be able to update your status across multiple social networking sites. To do so, simply type in a status, toggle sharing for different networks and hit the <em>Share </em>button. It will show notifications for each selected social media account as soon as it posts your status to all social media networks.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="notification" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/notification.png" alt="notification" width="294" height="401" border="0" /></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Amazon is one of the leading names in online retail and since it delivers in different parts of the world, it’s an excellent service to use if you want to send a surprise gift to someone outside the country. Amazon isn’t just great for buying but also a good place to hunt for discounts and deals. The only trouble is, the number of items is large that you can’t possibly keep up with all the deals. At the same time, not all deals are important for you but you won’t know that unless you see it and that means a ton of browsing. If you&#8217;re always looking for deals and ways to save cash while shopping online but don’t really have that much time to invest, then <strong>We Love Deals</strong> is what you need. This nifty little Chrome extension lets you find the latest deals on Amazon by displaying them with image thumbnails and price details, in a slick pop-up. If you like a deal or product, you can click its link to view or purchase it on Amazon. Each deal comes with a title, price, percentage off, date/time and category details. Additionally, the extension&#8217;s button displays a count to alert you when new deals are added to Amazon.</p>
<p><span id="more-113798"></span>After you’ve installed the extension, click the button in the toolbar to view the latest deals in a pop-up. The extension will show you the latest offers by date/time and you will be able to switch between pages, by clicking the page numbers displayed at the bottom of the pop-up. To buy a deal or to look up its details, simply click a deal’s link and you will instantly be redirected to its Amazon page. Finally, an easy way to share deals with friends on social networks might be another good feature for the extension.<div id="single-paragraph-add"></div></p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="pop-up" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/pop-up1.png" alt="pop-up" width="442" height="477" border="0" /></p>
<p>Amazon extensions are really the more popular type that you will find. A great way to make this extension far more useful would be to allow users to monitor a particular item for discounts. Allowing users to monitor items that appear discounted as per the extension’s algorithm or to allow them to monitor items they might be interested in from the any part of the site.</p>
<p>The extension doesn’t require you to sign up with Amazon to keep track of deals and can be quite useful for people who want to save up on cash by quickly finding the latest deals on the store. The link provided below will take you to the extension&#8217;s Chrome Web Store page.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>NovelsOnLocation</strong> is a smart service that uses Google Maps to find literature work based on different locations. The web app&#8217;s purpose is to provide you with books related to a certain place that, for instance, you&#8217;re travelling to. It is easy-to-use and lets you find an extensive variety of books from all over the world. The map comes with loads of placemarks, each representing a particular book. You can click on a particular placemark to view its details, or use the search bar on the upper right hand corner of the map to search for a book. The map also gives you zoom in/out functionality, along with two different layouts for the map. In addition to that, if you want to contribute to the service, all you have to do is simply enter a location, and then enter the details of your book in a pop-up.</p>
<p><span id="more-113439"></span>To start off, click a placemark or enter a term in the search bar to find a book. You will also be able to view the map in two different modes, <em>Satellite</em> or <em>Terrain</em>.<div id="single-paragraph-add"></div></p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border-width: 0px;" title="map" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/map1.png" alt="map" width="660" height="405" border="0" /></p>
<p>When a placemark is clicked, a pop-up instantly appears over the map, letting you view the book’s title, author and a summary of the work itself. Additionally, you will be able to view the <em>Added on</em> date and tags for the location. Clicking the title of the book allows you to open it on Amazon in a new tab. You can then add it to your cart or purchase it, depending on your preference.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border-width: 0px;" title="Novels On Location - 300 Novels348 Locations - Google Chrome_2012-05-09_12-17-43" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Novels-On-Location-300-Novels348-Locations-Google-Chrome_2012-05-09_12-17-43.png" alt="Novels On Location - 300 Novels348 Locations - Google Chrome_2012-05-09_12-17-43" width="660" height="412" border="0" /></p>
<p>To add a book to the map, first enter a location in the search bar and hit <em>Enter</em>. Instantly, a pop-up will appear over the map, letting you enter the <em>title</em>, <em>author </em>and other details for the book.</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="add book" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/add-book.png" alt="add book" width="386" height="222" border="0" /></p>
<p>This interesting web application is free and does not require any registration or login. With more contributions, NovelsOnLocation can become a fantastic resource for both geography, social and literature studies.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Gmail brought a lot of innovation to email, especially with its search features. However, one thing that remains traditional (akin to contemporary email services) is the method for selecting multiple messages, whereby requiring you to manually tick each check box for performing a batch action on multiple message threads/conversations. <strong>Click-n-Drag Checkbox For Gmail</strong> is an extension that aims to change that by letting you click and drag to select a bunch of items. This Chrome extension allows you to check/uncheck multiple checkboxes by clicking and dragging your mouse over their check marks. It is the perfect solution for selecting multiple emails in Gmail, especially when you don’t want to delete all of them. After you&#8217;ve installed the extension, click a checkbox and drag your mouse upwards or downwards to select a range of messages. This handy tool actually toggles the checkboxes, so it will check any conversation that is unchecked and vice versa.</p>
<p><span id="more-113505"></span>After installing the extension, simply click a check box to select it, and drag your mouse upwards or downwards, depending on the messages you want to select. You may even select multiple ranges, as after being done with sequence, you can initiate the other one with ease without affecting your previous selections.<div id="single-paragraph-add"></div></p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="click-n-drag" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/click-n-drag.png" alt="click-n-drag" width="660" height="314" border="0" /></p>
<p>On the surface of it, this extension might seem to add a very trivial function to Gmail but if you think of the many actions you can perform on a group of selected emails and conversation threads, you realize just how useful it can be. Adding labels to several messages is much easier when you have the luxury to select them in any order as is selectively archiving messages. Since the selection option will work no matter which mailbox or group you’re working in, the extension can prove very useful when you organize emails.</p>
<p>According to the reviews of the extension, it doesn’t work as well in other mail boxes. During testing, it worked without any hiccups but the reviews consistently report there is a problem. The extension is currently just for Gmail, but the developer should put some serious consideration in to making it work for other popular email services as well.</p>
<p>The extension has no buttons or options, whatsoever, and saves you a great amount of time and clicks. It can particularly come in handy for people who have to go through unending lists of emails everyday. Install the extension from the link below, give it a try and let us know what you think.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Finding good Netflix streaming content is not an easy job, mainly because everyone has a different take on a movie, and you may not always want to rely on users&#8217; ratings to determine whether a flick is worth your time or not. Rotten Tomatoes’ <em>Tomatometer</em> can be a pretty reliable indicator of movie quality, but switching between Netflix and Rotten Tomatoes isn&#8217;t really convenient. This is where <strong>A Better Queue </strong>comes in. This intelligent web application lets you filter and browse Netflix movies with the Tomatometer rating displayed alongside. With it, you will be able to view what&#8217;s available to watch instantly from Netflix in a list, sorted on the basis of Tomatometer ratings. The service works perfectly and lets you find good movies faster, thanks to its advance filters like rating, year of release and movie genre.</p>
<p><span id="more-113453"></span><em>A Better Queue</em> has a slick interface, with large movie posters and a panel with various filter options. To start off, move the sliders on the left to set the rating and year parameters. Next, click the checkboxes to select multiple genres and hit the <em>Filter </em>button. Movie results are then displayed accordingly, along with ratings, title, year and genre details. You can scroll through the results, and when you find a movie that interests you, simply click it to open it on Netflix.<div id="single-paragraph-add"></div></p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border-width: 0px;" title="A Better Queue - Google Chrome_2012-05-09_11-57-54" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/A-Better-Queue-Google-Chrome_2012-05-09_11-57-54.png" alt="A Better Queue - Google Chrome_2012-05-09_11-57-54" width="660" height="359" border="0" /></p>
<p>According to the developer, each movie will soon have an <em>Add to Instant Queue</em> button, which will allow you to add movies to your personal instant queue without leaving the website. More features will also be added to the service, including more intelligent use of ratings, an improved UI and an iOS app for your pocket. However, even in its current form, A Better Queue is a pretty useful service for all the Netflix users out there stuck in trying to decide what movie is worth their time.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Scheduling posts on social networks can lead to many benefits, and may have multiple uses. For instance, you may want to schedule a tweet announcing the launch of something important to you, or a Facebook post to wish your loved ones happy birthday. <span id="GRmark_68ac510c02972dc3e70da77d8b1de5beb2f30fcf_For:0" class="GRcorrect">For</span> the two most popular social media services, Twitter and Facebook, several tools exist that allow you to do just that. Unfortunately, one can&#8217;t say the same for Google+. You&#8217;d be hard pressed to find similar solutions for the social network. If you&#8217;re still looking for one, try <strong>Do Share. </strong>This smart Chrome extension helps you write Google+ posts, save them as drafts or schedule them for a later time. You can format posts, share drafts or delete them as well. Posts can be shared with specific circles, which can be added by clicking the <em>+Add more people </em>option within the extension. Also, note that as the network does not have a full API yet, the extension uses a method to automatically log in to your Google+ profile in the background to post scheduled messages. So, for the extension to be able to do so, you&#8217;ll need to have your computer and browser running, and yourself logged in to Google+.</p>
<p><span id="more-113203"></span>After installing the extension, click the button the toolbar, and Do Share will open in a new tab, allowing you add a subject line and a body <span id="GRmark_9e93089f87157f0b130526d37cd56d9ea9abfe63_for:0" class="GRcorrect">for</span> the post. Additionally, you will be able to add specific circles and format the post. Once done with inputting the text, click the <em>schedule </em>button, select a date/time from the pop-up, click <em>Done, </em>and hit the <em>Schedule </em>button<em>.</em><div id="single-paragraph-add"></div></p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border-width: 0px;" title="write post" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/write-post.png" alt="write post" width="660" height="422" border="0" /></p>
<p>Next, you will be able to see your scheduled post with <span id="GRmark_632e96a29b5cb3f8bd5961e4080164da2ffe356b_date:0" class="GRcorrect">date</span>, time and subject details. The posts will be automatically published to your Google+ profile at the designated time and date, provided that you keep Chrome open and Google+ logged in. That’s how simple it is!</p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border-width: 0px;" title="drafts and schedule" src="http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/drafts-and-schedule.png" alt="drafts and schedule" width="660" height="461" border="0" /></p>
<p>The extension works seamlessly and can come in particularly handy for people who want to promote their blogs, websites or products on Google Plus. If you want to save your posts as drafts or schedule them for a later time, then Do Share is the perfect tool for you.</p>
