The bookmarks toolbar takes precious space, so I recommend to access to your bookmarks quickly just adding a button.
How-to
- Your computer must be running on a Windows.
- Right-click the shortcut you use to open and run Google Chrome. From the menu, select “Properties”. We are now going add a command line option that will let you use the feature.
- Make sure you’re on the “Shortcut” tab.In “Target:”, add ” –bookmark-menu” to the end of what is already there. Make sure you typed exactly how I did. Don’t forget the space before the start of the command. On my computer, it’s like this:
“C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe” –bookmark-menu
- Do this to all other shortcuts available that you may open Chrome with (QuickLaunch, Start Menu, and Desktop).
And you will get something like this:
If you are using Linux, you can do almost the same with this extension.

So we have three variables in this problem. Vehicle, goal and time.

I want to give my best wishes for this incoming year to everybody. Peace, hope and happiness.
And as gift (so exciting as that underwear from your grandma) I recompiled some great Google Chrome extensions that I founded.
-
AdThwart
Adblock alike, the most wanted extension for Chrome.
-
Chrome Flags
Really handy for web developers and curious users. Show the country flag of the server location, also give the IP and other great information.
-
WOT
WOT (Web of trust), is about how secure is the website you’re visiting. Simple and useful.
-
Speed Dial
Want to personalize the home page? Speed Dial is for you!
That’s all, enjoy it.
I only put my favorite extensions, I don’t like mumbo-jumbo lists. If you have some other, just comment about it.
Oh, and I hope to redesign this blog in few weeks, so stay tuned.
Again, best wishes for you in 2010 .
I post this little snippet because isn’t easy for me to found it. Here is.
[plain]RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^.:]+\.)*oldwebsite\.com\.?(:[0-9]*)?$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.preferredwebsite.net/$1 [R=301,L][/plain]
Thanks Wikipedia!
UPDATE: I had the same problem in Windows XP, apparently it’s a problem in some updated library.
I installed the new Windows 7 and I found problems when publish to SWF (the Flash closes).
The solution, install the last update.

In the old offline times, when you read a newspaper for example, you can’t say something to the other readers or tell to the author of the article your point of view.
However, in this social connected world, now We can do this in a variety of ways.
But we still writing in old school way sometimes. First, don’t talk to the mass, talk directly to your reader. Yes, because now read something is chat-alike. I’m talking to you, my dear reader, and later you read my message, you can reply, and later I can reply too.
That is the new paradigm in the blogs, twitter, and every social site. Multi-directional communication. So move it to write in this way, do you think?
