Synergy Lets You Use One Mouse and Keyboard with Two or More Computers
Synergy is simple program that does the task of allow you to use one mouse and one keyboard on multiple computers. It also allows you to transfer copy and paste data over too. So if in screen 1 you copy the text “Testing” when you paste in screen 2 it will paste “Testing”. By simply going off the screen it will move your mouse to the next computer there is no need to press any buttons unlike KVM. It is also going to support other draging and dropping features soon such as file drag and dropping. Curently the only problem I have is sometimes on windows 7 when the UAC screen pops up the mouse sometimes stops working.Also it only allows computers around it to be connect sort of. Basiclly what I mean is one computer is 5ft off the ground and the other one is 2ft and to the left there is no way to only have the bottom left corner move your mouse onto the other screen.All in all it is a good program to have handy if you have alot of computers.

Raptr Is the Ultimate Gaming Service: Connects PSN, Xbox and More
Raptr is like all the Instant messaging services you use combined into 1 program. It allows you to connect to facebook, xbox, psn, and many more. Although it does not work with skype 
which I am pretty bummed about because if it did support skype I would probably uninstall skype. It also supports ingame chat which I have not tried out yet though and it also checks what games you have installed and when you play that game it will show you as playing it which is kinda cool. Each game also has its own page like a Facebook page that you can like and write on.All in all it is a good program to have if you have alot of different Instant messaging services.

You simply type in the name of what you are looking for and it will popup a download almost instantly.

Also although the searches are most of the time rite there is no way of detecting if a torrent is fake because there are no comments. I recommend this to people who are just looking to download torrent really quick.

How to Achieve Server’s High Availability using StarWind
StarWind iSCSI software represents one of the simplest tools available in the market to facilitate the use of high availability –clustering- for your servers and services, like a web server hosting your site, without the need of acquiring expensive and complex hardware to do it.
Achieving high availability for services in organizations it is not an easy task, decisions makers in several companies do not consider this solution as viable considering the costs we have to assume in storage and the new layer of complexity added to our platform. StarWind iSCSI software appears to solve both of these problems.
StarWind provides the possibility to use a simple server with normal hard drives to act as an iSCSI (open Internet protocol) portal which is charge of offering remote storage to machines and easily transform those in high availability clusters for your services. Also, using Windows Server 2008 R2 we will see that the procedure to create a cluster if we are using StarWind iSCSI is really simple.
To create a Windows Server 2008 R2 Failover Cluster using StarWind iSCSI software can be done within 5 steps (the complete guide available here):
- Review requirements for the environment: Having one machine acting as an iSCSI server using StarWind software and at least to machines, same hardware baseline, to conform the cluster.
- Install StarWind iSCSI SAN software: Easy step, just follow the wizard.
- Configure and create storage within StarWind iSCSI: This application has a very intuitive console to administer the resources, so you won’t find much problem completing this.
- Install Failover Cluster feature in machines and run validation wizard: The validation wizard will execute several tests to the servers in order to assure us that the cluster will be stable.
- Create Windows Server 2008 R2 Cluster: A three-step wizard that, if we executed the validation without any problem, this wizard should complete in the same way.
You can download a free trial for StarWind iSCSI software from this link.
