I cover XWindows Dock yesterday, and i would like to introduce another portable application which performs similar task. It is called RunMe. The application was being published quite some time ago, but i just discovered it today, and i decide to write about it, since it is really worth us to have a look.
RunMe - Portable application launcher for windows
To some of the users, RunMe may be a simple utilities to launch their favorite application. But for advanced users, RunMe may become a replacement tool for their Windows Start Menu(you can configure this through the Settings option).
Users can add any program to the launcher by dragging and dropping the shortcut into it. There are a lot of settings that you can change. for example, you can change the look of RunMe from the preinstalled 15 themes, the dock position of the launcher, the effects, and much more.
RunMe is a portable application, which mean you can always carry it with your USB pendrive. All settings are saved in a XML file. If you like an application launcher with docking support, make sure you look into this application!
Note: This application support Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7 as well.

One of the attractive feature that Mac OS gives us is the docking feature. Windows users can have such features by installing 3rd party software, which emulate the docking feature.
Although there are a lot of docking applications for windows, but XWindows Dock beat them all by having an excellent graphical effects such as reflections, transparencies, shadow and blur in a single package.
XWindows Dock - OS X Mac docking for windows
Xwindows dock features:-
- Opacity and blur reflections.
- Panel opacity.
- Space between panel and screen border.
- Skins for 2D and 3D dock.
- Advance minimization feature for windows, which will make you forget about Windows Taskbar.
- Much more, visit their page for more info!

I had introduced about Gazup before, which is a service that upload your files to multiple file hosting server. Now, there is another alternative service which performs the same thing – Uploadjockey.
Uploadjockey - Send files to multiple hosting server
Uploadjockey will uploads your files to 3 different hosting server – MegaUpload, EasyShare, and DepositFiles. The maximum file size supported is only 200MB. Compare with Gazup, Uploadjockey supports fewer hosting server and don’t have much features.
But, Uploadjockey let you earn money through sharing your files. You will earn $2 per 1000 unique downloads and they will paid through PayPal when your account reach $10.
I personally like Uploadjockey( not because i can earn money form it). It is because i use EasyShare and DepositFiles a lot, but Gazup don’t support both hosting servers.

How often do you use file hosting services such as Rapidshare or MediaFire? If you are an active person who always share content through these file hosting services, then you should know that your files will be deleted from the server if you are sharing copyrighted materials. So, you may consider to upload these files to multiple servers, which will cost you a lot of time and efforts.
Now, you may try Gazup, which is a free service which will help you to upload your files to multiple file hosting servers at one time. Currently, they cupport 9 different file hosting servers, which include NetLoad.in, MegaUpload.com, NetLoad.in, FileFactory.com, MegaShares.com, Badongo.com, Load.to, 2Shared.com, and UploadBox.com.
Gazup - Upload your files to multiple file hosting servers
There are 3 methods where you can upload your files: Direct file upload, Remote Upload through providing the URL of the file, and also FTP Upload.
Users can upload files without register. Howerver, registered members gain more features such as having a private control panel to manage your uploaded files.

What happen if some your your keyboard keys stop working? Will you use on-screen keyword that comes with your system? Or you will buy a new keyboard? I am sure most of us will choose the second option.
Now, SharpKeys comes and may help us. It can remap one key to another key by storing the mapping to the registry.
SharpKeys is actually a portable application writtien in C# using .NET 2.0. So, you need to install Microsoft .NET 2.0 and above before you can enjoy this utilities.
So, how does SharpKeys help us in terms of a keyboard keys replacement tool? Simple launch the application, and click “Add” to add a key mapping entry. Then, choose which key you are going to map with, and press “Write To Registry” once you done everything. You may need to log off or reboot your PC so that the key mapping take effect.
Let’s summarize what SharpKeys can do for you and what SharpKeys cannot do:
SharpKeys will
- Remap one key to a single key. For example, remap “Shift” to “Caps Lock”.
- Remap multiple keys to a single key. For example, remap all keys to “A”.
SharpKeys won’t
- Swap keys.
- Map multiple key presses to one key.
- Map mouse click to key.
Please note that SharpKeys key mapping will affect the other users as well. So if you are using a public computer, or share a computer with others, make sure you get permission or inform them before you use the application.
