Lets start from the beginning of the code.

To create a PayPal Buy Now Button, we need to specify few variables.

• On Line #5 business tells PayPal where to deposit the money.
• On Line #7 cmd is used to tell PayPal what type of transaction is being made. Since we are creating Buy Now button, its value is “_xclick”.
• On Line #9 item_name is used to tell the product name to PayPal.
• On Line #10 amount tells PayPal the price of the product.
• On Line #11 currency_code tell PayPal the currency of price. The default is USD. List of allowable values of Currency Codes can be found here.
• On Line #14 quantity tells PayPal the total number of product bought by the customer.

When a customer clicks on the Buy Now button, all these variables are passed to PayPal.

The process is shown in the following image (Copied from PayPal)

New Updated Buzz Settings

Buzz settings now can be directly accessed from your Gmail Settings. Click on Settings and then look up the tab named Buzz. Below is the 1-2-3 of the new settings.

#1. Inbox Settings:

The settings are really useful and I think I will be trying to play around with this to figure out what works best for me. I do not like some of the people I follow on Buzz spamming my Inbox. Earlier there was a run around to it by creating a new filter withing Gmail, but now this can be done easily done through the settings.

I am selecting the first option which is People comment on my posts and its update reaches my Inbox and that is what I would generally want to monitor.

#2. List of Followers in Buzz

This setting is very important considering the number one concern from a lot of tech enthusiasts was that Google Buzz shows you email contacts to anyone you are following on Buzz. The email is not leaked but email is something that can be used for personal and professional work and I am sure people don’t want one group of contacts to look up the other. Here you can choose not to show the list of people you are following to people who follow you.

#3. Disable Google

I had written a post earlier on how to remove Buzz but there are two instances of it. New settings allows you to not show Buzz within Gmail and there is a new option to Disable Google Buzz which completely removes all the Buzz posts and also deletes the Google profile. I think this can be handy with accounts you simply want Buzz not to be present.

Mute Buzz update from Inbox..

Finally the latest addition to Buzz updates that make it within your Inbox is that you can mute a Buzz post from the Inbox itself. Take a look at the image below. This does not mute the Buzz post from Buzz interface but only within your Email. This is useful to control a post which is getting a low of replies which you are not really interesting in looking up in your Inbox.

Do let me know if you have been using Buzz and if you have any new ideas on the drawbacks of Buzz that are not addressed with these settings?

Do drop in your comments.

24hoursloot is an online retail website which offer various stuff like Gadgets, T-Shirts, Posters, Watches, Spy cameras and many other stuff at discounted price.

Any item which will be displayed on the 24hourloot website stays on the homepage for 24 hours starting from 12AM IST.

If the item is sold in between, it will wait for 24 hour to complete to display the new item. What I like most about this site is their customer support via Email or Twitter, which is very responsive and handle any issue on individual level.

I ordered a T-shirt with twitter handle which cost me almost 4$ and within 3 days I received the T-shirt.

If you like to shop online, I’m sure you will enjoy this website.

The motive of all three popular buttons is to share our idea with a community, people and friends on twitter, facebook and other social networking sites. These buttons show a neat count of the number of times your blog post has been shared.

Why the available Plugins shouldn’t be used ?

• Plugins have a bunch of codes and images, which inturn increases loading time of your site.
• It takes some extra space on your server.
• All plugins are based or we can say designed on I Frame. This I frame results into error when tested on W3C validator.
• The customization of the share buttons is impossible with plugins.

How to use share scripts?

Be sure to place the following code in your template page (within index.php, single.php, and /or page.php) or as per your requirement.

1) For Retweet button:

Go to home.php or index.php place the code before or after : <?php the_content() ?>

<script type=”text/javascript”>

tweetmeme_source = ‘<the name what you want to display before retweet post>’;

tweetmeme_style = ‘<size style>’;

tweetmeme_url = ‘<the post permalink>”;

</script>

<script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://tweetmeme.com/i/scripts/button.js”></script>

For customization of the retweet button use the following scripts:

Script	Renders this button	Size
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://tweetmeme.com/i/scripts/button.js”></script>		57×57 pixels
<script src=”http://www.twittlink.com/tools/button_b.js” type=”text/javascript”/></script>		57×57 pixels
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://widgets.backtype.com/tweetcount.js”></script		57×57 pixels
<script src=”http://twittley.com/button/button.js”></script>		57×57 pixels

Changing the URL Shortener used

We have also added the ability to use a URL shortener of your choice instead of our default one.

If you would like to do this then you need to include the “tweetmeme_service” parameter as shown below:

<script type=”text/javascript”>
tweetmeme_service = ‘bit.ly’;
</script>
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://tweetmeme.com/i/scripts/button.js”></script>

2) For facebook share count buttons:

Again go to home.php or index.php, place the code before or after <?php the_content() ?>

<a name=”fb_share” type=”button_count” share_url=”<pots permalink>”</a>
<script src=”http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/connect.php/js/FB.Share” type=”text/javascript”></script>

The above script will render a normal share count button within a post.

You can also try this,

Using this code	Renders this button	Size
<a name=”fb_share” type=”box_count” share_url=”YOUR_URL”></a>		57×57 pixels
<a name=”fb_share” type=”button_count” share_url=”YOUR_URL”></a>		96×18 pixels
<a name=”fb_share” type=”button” share_url=”YOUR_URL”></a>		56×18 pixels
<a name=”fb_share” type=”icon_link” share_url=”YOUR_URL”>Share</a>		51×15 pixels
<a name=”fb_share” type=”icon” share_url=”YOUR_URL”></a>		18×15 pixels

As for example
share_url= <?php the_permalink() ?>

Now its depends up to you that where you want to place the buttons. For doing this
Just put all the code within a <div> </div> and apply some CSS according to its placement.

3: ) How to use Google buzz

Go to home.php or index.php, place the code before or after <?php the_content() ?>

<a href=”http://www.google.com/reader/link?url=<post permalink>&title=<?php the_title(); ?>&srcURL=<?php bloginfo(‘url’); ?>” target=”_blank” rel=”nofollow external”>

<img alt=’Buzz It’ src=’http://i46.tinypic.com/ouprt1.jpg’/>

The following code will display the compact size of google buzz button.
The only thing is that make sure that URL have your post permalink.
As For Example: -
url=<?php the_permalink() ?>

You can change the default image according to your requirement, For high Resoultion Google Buzz Icons click here.

Download ultra surf and once download is completed. Simply start the software. Once you will run this software, it will try to connect to its server and if it’s successfully connected. You can start browsing directly from Internet explorer.

How to Connect if I’m behind a Proxy firewall?

In some colleges and office, you need proxy settings to access internet. In this case open Ultra surf, click on options and configure your proxy settings to connect to internet. Now it will connect to its server using your provided proxy settings.

How to configure different browsers to use Ultra surf settings ?

When you open Ultra surf, it will automatically configure your Internet explorer settings to use Ultra surf proxy settings. But if you want to use it on other browser like Mozilla firefox or anything else, you need to change the proxy settings of browser to use :

• IP : 127.0.0.1
• Port : 9666

I hope this tutorial will help you a lot to access useful sites which are accidentally blocked due to your firewall software or hardware in your organization.

#1. Mind Map extension

Mind Mapping is a software which allows you to create work flow charts and share them in real time with your contacts on Wave. Also someone added to the wave can look it up by the play back feature. This is great way to collaborate over a project or strategy between a group. Take a look at the video below for a demo.

#2. Ribbit Conference Extension

We can share a wave with a few of our contacts. Adding the Ribbit conference extension allows you to make conference calls to your contacts with Wave. This can be done by using your contacts phone numbers. Take a look at the video below for more details.

#3. Video Chat Experiance

This one is a fantastic extension and it allows you to carry out video conference with your Wave contacts. It has a extension by 6 rounds and allows you to view You Tube videos and Facebook pictures all in a collaborative way. Below is a video which explains the extension better.

#4. Napkin Doodle

This one allows you and your friends added to the Wave to doodle away. It is more like a collaborating paint box made very famous in Yahoo Messenger. This one can be a lot of fun.

#5. The Sudoku Extension

This allows you to play Sudoku with your friends who you can add to the wave after you have added the wave extension. This is quite a lot of fun and some details of the extensions are explained in the video below.
