Desktop Curtain - Hide your clutter

Choose your focus

Desktop Curtain displays a stylized curtain or image that you can use to cover as much—or as little—of your screen as you'd like. You can place the curtain or image…
  • Behind the icons on your desktop, so it acts like a desktop image.
  • On top of your desktop icons, instantly hiding the clutter.
  • Behind the frontmost application, hiding everything but that application.
  • On demand, behind the frontmost window to focus your attention on just that window.

Choose your look

In addition to its built-in curtain, Desktop Curtain can use any picture file, the current OS X desktop picture, or a solid color as its curtain; the choice is yours.
Choose a curtain, an image, or a solid color
You can easily change the color of the stylized curtain, or of any image with translucency.
Desktop Curtain also keeps track of your last 10 used images, making it simple to choose from recently-used images.

You're in control

Desktop Curtain's settings give you full control over when and where you'll see its curtain (or image).
  • On multi-monitor Macs, choose between the display with the menu bar or all connected displays.
  • If you use Desktops (Spaces), choose whether Desktop Curtain shows on all Desktops, or just the current one.
  • Optionally hide Desktop Curtain when entering Mission Control (Exposé).
The Curtain settings tab
You also control the appearance of any images you use as curtains: their axes can be scaled proportionally or independently, or they can be centered or tiled.

Flexible features

Desktop Curtain can be run in any of three modes (standard application, menu bar icon, or completely invisible), and offers fast access to its key features via a contextual menu on the curtain itself, via Dock pop-up menus, or via its menu bar icon's menus.
You can define global hot keys to toggle the curtain's visibility or to isolate the frontmost window, and setting Desktop Curtain launch at login (with its curtain optionally hidden) is as simple as checking a box.
The Advanced settings tab
There's even an optional 'boss mode' hot key that will cover everything, including the Dock and Command-Tab switcher.

Foursquare announces Swarm, its new app for checking in

Foursquare has announced that they are going to launch their all new app called SWARM this summer.  Foursquare is for explorers who want to know about the best spots, and to share what they’ve found with others. Swarm is for people who want the fastest and easiest way to connect with their friends,Swarm aims to facilitate meet-ups with friends more easily by letting you broadcast where you're going next and what your friends' plans are.

"We built Swarm because you’ve told us how often you still have to text your friends: “where are you?” and “what you up to later?” We wanted to build a quick way for you to know these two things for all of your friends. With Swarm, you can easily see which of your friends are out nearby, figure out who is up for grabbing a drink later, and share what you’re up to (faster and more easily than you can in Foursquare today). Swarm will be available on iOS and Android in the coming weeks, and soon after on Windows Phone, but you can read a ton more about it (including screenshots and some videos) on The Verge right now. If you sign up at swarmapp.com, we’ll email you when it’s ready." Foursquare.

"In the near future, the Foursquare app is also going to go through a metamorphosis. Local search today is like the digital version of browsing through the Yellow Pages (remember those?). We believe local search should be personalized to your tastes and informed by the people you trust. The opinions of actual experts should matter, not just strangers. An app should be able answer questions like ‘give me a great date dinner spot’ and not just ‘tell me the nearest gas station.’ We’re right now putting the final touches on this new, discovery-focused version of Foursquare. It’ll be polished and ready for you later this summer." Foursquare.

Swarm is rolling out in upcoming weeks to Android, iOS, with Windows Phone not too much farther behind.

MailTrack is a service that works only with Gmail and Chrome using an Chrome extension, which helps you in monitoring whether the person has opened the email you sent. It uses the traditional system of ticks or Whatsapp like double-check to indicate the status of the mail.

How does MailTrack alert me that my emails have been read?

You only see the ✓ when your email is opened for the first time, but MailTrack can do more. If you hover your mouse over the double-checks, you will also see the history of all the days and hours that your recipients have opened your messages, as well as which device is being used (PC, iPhone, etc).

Facebook Adds "Nearby Friends" to Show You Where Everyone's At

Facebook has always encouraged you to share with your friends — your favorite movies, pictures, and life updates. Now Facebook wants you sharing your location, too.


Facebook's newest feature, Nearby Friends, begins rolling out today. The opt-in feature broadcasts your exact location, and can even give real-time updates as you move around, if that's the kind of thing you want to share with your friends.
The new feature is opt-in, meaning you'll need to activate it within the app, should you choose to participate. Users who do not activate Nearby Friends won't be affected in any way, and will not share with or receive any location information from others on the platform.

How to use Nearby Friends

  • To see friends in your area, turn on Nearby Friends in settings within the mobile app. This feature is opt-in, meaning you must manually activate it if you want to be seen (or see others). Once the feature is activated, you'll go through a small tutorial that explains how to use the feature.
  • You can select the groups on Facebook with which you want to share your location. You can't share your location with the public or with friends of friends. You can only share it with friends or other groups that you have created, like "close friends" or "family."
  • Facebook will notify you when friends are nearby, at which point you can message those friends if you want to connect. You won't be able to see a friend's exact location, however. For example, the app may say that a friend is within two miles, but the exact coordinates will not be shared automatically.
  • If you turn on Nearby Friends, it will not turn off automatically. You will continue to broadcast your approximate location until the feature is manually turned off. Users be reminded that they are sharing their location thanks to push notifications, says Vaccari

The new feature is intended to help friends meet offline, says Vaccari, whose startup Glancee was acquired by Facebook back in 2012. Vaccari, who grew up in Italy, was building similar technology at Glancee in order to meet new people, a challenge he faced when he came to the United States. At Facebook, the technology only applies to a user's friends, which Vaccari believes will encourage more people to try it out.

Facebook has been testing the feature with the "vast majority" of the company's 6,500-plus employees for close to 18 months, according to Vaccari. During that time, Facebook used employee feedback to shape the feature and hone the notification algorithm. At the beginning, users received notifications that they had friends nearby all the time, says Vaccari.

How to get Cortana Outside the US

If you live outside the US and are now running the dev preview of Windows Phone 8.1, you may well be weeping at the absence of one of its most important features: Cortana. But weep no longer, because you can get Cortana outside of the US, and it's incredibly easy to set up.

If you go into the settings of your device and change the region to US and then change the interface language to English (United States), you can get access to Cortana right now. Note that you may have to reboot your phone a couple of times but that’s a small inconvenience for getting access to the digital assistant.


As of right now, Cortana is locked to the US but it will be expanding it to the UK and China later this year, with further regions gaining support in 2015.

Cortana - personal assistant on Windows Phone 8.1

Cortana
Cortana is the codename for the newly announced intelligent personal assistant and knowledge navigator for Windows Phone 8.1. The technology is expected to be added to Windows 8.x and the Xbox One in the future. It builds off of Microsoft’s current voice technology called TellMe, which was purchased by Microsoft in 2009.

The name ‘Cortana’ comes from the fictional, artificially intelligent (AI) character in the Halo video game series. It was first spotted in June 2013 in the Windows Phone Central forums, appearing as ‘zCortana’ from a developer device that was accidentally sold to a non-Microsoft employee.

Cortana is your personal assistant on Windows Phone 8.1. She’s great for finding nearby sushi joints, reminding you to get milk on your way home and much more. You won’t find Cortana confined to her app though, she’s hanging out in other parts of Windows Phone 8.1. Here’s a quick tip for adding events to your calendar from text messages and emails. Cortana is intelligent enough to understand that your contact wants to do something at a certain time. She’ll then make scheduling that appointment easy and with a few taps it’s in your calendar. She’ll do her best to understand what it is you’re doing with that person, but she’s pretty accurate at understanding the time. You might need to edit the actual activity, but that’s a minor quibble.
