How to create torrent file?

Today, most of (or we can say all of the) downloads are available on torrent sites. All the software, movies, music videos, books etc, are downloaded in torrent format rather than direct downloads. Torrent file is a great way to share media on the Internet. You can even share large files in GBs to your friends or people's you don't know at all.

To downloads torrent file all you need is utorrent software installed on you PC. Most of the people know how to download from torrent, but they don't know how to create torrent files? Here we are, we now going to see how to create a torrent file.

So how do you do this? Well it’s very simple. Open your favorite BitTorrent client and do the magic trick:
i.e. - utorrent
file > create torrent
That’s all? Well almost. All you need to do now is put in the tracker info and tick some boxes. This can differ somewhat from client to client but it all comes down to the same thing.

µTorrent
Step 1 - File > Create new Torrent (or CTRL + N)
Step 2 - Select the files and or directories
Step 3 - Trackers: This is probably the hard part for most people. But it’s pretty easy, just put in one of the popular public trackers. You can use one or more trackers, but in general one is enough.

Here are some good trackers you can use:
http://open.tracker.thepiratebay.org/announce
http://www.torrent-downloads.to:2710/announce
http://denis.stalker.h3q.com:6969/announce
udp://denis.stalker.h3q.com:6969/announce
http://www.sumotracker.com/announce
Put one of these in the tracker box
Step 4 - Do NOT tick the private torrent box (unless you’re using a private tracker)
Step 5 - Save the torrent and send it to your friends

Bitcomet
Step 1 - File > Create Torrent
Step 2 - Select the files and or directories
Step 3 - Select “enable public DHT network” from the dropdown box.
This way you can be your own tracker if the public tracker goes down.
Step 4 - Tracker server and DHT node list.
Again, This is probably the hard part for most people. But it’s pretty easy, just put in one of the popular public trackers. You can use one or more trackers, but in general one is enough.

How to automatically backup USB drives

How to automatically backup USB drives

 USB flash drives are not indestructible - they may be sturdier than hard drives, but they're still susceptible to physical damage and breakage from falls, electrostatic discharge and data corruption if a device is removed while data is still being copied.

It's good practice to keep multiple backups of your important data, so try USB Flash Copy - a free utility for Windows PCs that automatically takes backups of your flash drive every time you connect it.

No installation is needed and it's only a 300kb download - get it from www.usbflashcopy.com and run it to set a particular folder on your computer's hard drive for backups (by default, it makes a backup folder in 'My Documents' ).

The first time you connect a USB drive, it will take a complete backup of all contents. Thereafter, it only makes small changes to the backup folder - copying only the files that have been changed or added. If you like, you can alter the settings to keep older versions of files too.

And if multiple people use the same PC or if you have multiple flash drives, you can create profiles for each device (with different settings).

How to send self-destructing messages

How to send self-destructing messages

Normally, any form of written communication has a record - something that can be referred to later. But if you want to send a self-destructing message to someone, try the free service at www.privnote.com.

You don't need to sign up or provide any information - just start writing your note in the text box on the page. The note can be as long as you want and you can even paste a large Word document here if you like. Once done, click 'create note' and a link will be created for you. The link is meant to be shared only once, with one person only.

Once the note is read, the link (and the note) is removed from the server. You can even set it to notify you once the note gets read - though you do have to put in an email ID for that. If you're wary of giving your email ID, you can always use a disposable email service like www.mailinator.com.

Mailinator gives you a quick email ID without any sign up process - you can check for new mail as often as you like and just forget about the whole thing once your purpose is served. You can also use Mailinator to sign up for forums and to comment on websites. It's a great way to avoid getting spammed later.
