Software, websites

While photos attached to messages delivered to Gmail can be viewed immediately in the gallery, documents can be read immediately with a single click, attached videos must first be downloaded and opened in the appropriate player on your computer. How to solve it?

My client has a website with a lot of images where EXIF data are kept for historical reason. Now there is a need to remove them. Since the operation using the content management system is a little bit complicated, I decided to use the server command line.

Do you need to try out a plug-in, a visual theme or some other functionality but also not to shatter your own web? What about a free installation of WordPress with one click, available in seconds and erased automatically after two days?

For almost a quarter of a year I have been working with the tool Sitebulb which offers web checking from the SEO point of view. It is not limited to the technical issues only, it is also able to deal with keywords. After trying it out I have immediately downloaded the most expensive version and I would like to share my experience and impression I have gained during working with this tool.

Most of you probably are familiar with Screaming Frog SEO Spider. It is a great tool for checking a website limited to 500 URLs when using the freeware version. Greenflare is quite similar. But Greenflare is completely free, unlimited and promises a solid performance even on a low-end computer. On top of that it can extract any information located on a website.

Considering the fact I travel a lot, I really need to have an access to various online services from one IP address at my disposal. Of course there is a solution – a VPN. I have been using the one that is directly built in my NAS for years but recently I have decided to transform my Raspberry Pi 3 into a VPN server.

For years I have used my Synology NAS with a lightweight Git service called Gogs. Written in Golang, hardware resources friendly and containing only basic functions I need. And with a slick user interface. The problem is the Synology package is unofficial and not maintained. So how to install Gogs and then update to the latest version on Synology NAS?

After some crashes of my OS X Mavericks the Photoshop CS6 opens old files after its start. Its a little bit annoying but the help from this is very easy.

If you have a backup of old emails coming from the Microsoft Outlook mail client, you have one or more PST files. It is my case also – I switched from Windows to Mac OS without buying the Outlook 2011. The good news is we don’t need Outlook itself for the old messages. You can read and open PST files on the Mac using the simple viewer.
