This cool CSS trick lets your users know when you have linked to a PDF file. This is very handy because a lot of people like myself, and im sure you as well, hate when you click a link just to find out its a PDF. This CSS trick will alter any link text that are liked to PDF.
I hate having to watch advertisements in YouTube videos before I can watch the actual clip. I hate it even more when the advertisements can be longer than the actual movie or you see the same advertisement 10 times in a row. With this cool Google Chrome extension you can skip the ads with just a click of a button. The creator also claims that it will always work, and legal. Once you have installed the extension just go to a YouTube video with advertisements and hit the “Blue Play” button at the top of the video next to the title (See Image).

I just received some news from the VUDU team that they have just launched “VUDU TO GO”, a new feature that allows its customers to download movies they have purchased and watch them on their computers later without an internet connection. Now they just need to change to a pricing structure that is more feasible or just change it to what Netflix has setup, a monthly “Pay and watch all you want” service.
I just want everyone to know that I’m not dead, I’m here but very busy. I recently scored a new job working at Shasta QA as a software tester for some very important companies. I’m also in the process of creating a small PHP script for a “game” where SysSU visitors get a chance to win some cool prizes. I have also been doing a lot of backend, under the hood changes such as switching to a new commenting system and some minor CSS tweaks to help improve the overall performance and appearance here at SysSU. All this stuff is also being piled on with the holidays that eat up a lto of my free time. That is why you are not seeing a lot of new content. I’M STILL ALIVE!
Yep that is right, Apple has released iOS 5.0.1 that is suppose to fix the battery life as well as some other minor fixes. You have two ways to update, you can either go to Settings>General>Software Update on your iDevice or, use the all too familiar iTunes download. If you do use iTunes to complete the update then be aware that it is a 813MB download compared to the iDevice route that is around 55MB. Over wifi the 55MB update should take no more than 10 minutes. Some users are also reporting that if you do not see the option to update on your iDevice then you should try again after completing a soft reset.
