[Firefox Add-on] User Agent Switcher, Masquerade as Another Browser

UPDATE!!!

I just found a forum, and I tried this trick and worked fine. LOL :D

I joined a lot of internet forums, one of which is Kaskus. Kaskus is the largest Indonesia forum. There is a uniqueness in Kaskus, where the member who already has a number of posts more than 2000 could give reputation to other users , good or bad reputation. In kaskus, reputation is very important considering Kaskus is also a major online trading site in Indonesia. So, the member who has a good reputation is certainly more credible by potential buyers. Because of that, many of members make a multiple account and write a post as often as possible in order to quickly reach 2000 posts number. With multiple account, it can give reputation to their own another account.
Then, what's the relevance of it with this post? :)
"...as often as possible...", imagine if you open that forum on your mobile and it'll opened as mobile site version! More lighter, more faster. But with you do that on your phone, it'll take a lot of time just for typing the post. Try open the mobile site version on your firefox, it'll automatically redirected to full version because server detected your firefox as your full web browser. I think if I can open mobile site on firefox as mobile site instead of full site, I can post more often because I can open multiple tab, typing more faster, better connection than my phone and much more.
How can I do that? Want to know? Please continue reading this post :)

How To Reset Windows Password Using Ubuntu

I have a funny experience. Few days ago, my senior (at my office) ask me to change his computer password (Windows XP Professional). He said, "...please tell me how to change my password. Just tell me the way and I'll change the password by myself...". When I asked him the reason, his answer is "...so you can't use my computer anymore..." :D
Yesterday, he called me. "...panoet, do you know my new password?..." and of course "NO" is my answer. "...Why you ask to me? Yesterday you've changed your password. Right?...". Guess, what his answer?
"I've forgotten my new password!"! LOL, I think. Yesterday you want to change your password so I can't use your computer and know you ask me the password because you've forgotten your new password. Is it sounds silly, right?
Have you ever experienced anything like that? Lost your Windows password? If you have, how to fix that?

How To Hide Blogger Widget Title, Since Blogger Not Allow Us To Exclude That Now

Little change on Blogger Page Elements Editor

Two days ago, I intend to slightly change my Blogger template. I want to change some of the views of the widget by modifying that code. As usual, I use the menu Design → Page Elements to change that.

---

After I finished the editing, I intend to save it. But in fact this is what I get:

---

This occurs because "title" field is still empty, though it is a required field. As a side note, Blogger does not like this before! We are allowed to not fill the "title" field. It may sound insignificant, but it is really important. Because sometimes we do not need a title for the widget that we will tide. For example, as I experienced it. At that time I just wanted to put my own widget, which is "follow us" widget. Where will I display the widget with the attribute "fixed", which means it has fixed position, although visitors scrolling the page. And I don't need a title for that!
I found this changes two days ago, but I do not know exactly when Blogger making this change.

How To Add Custom Font To Blogger (Like This Blog Header Font)

Adding Custom Fonts to Blogger can improve the look and feel of your blog. Before getting into font embedding lets know how this works. In your templates you can use any font you want, but these would be properly displayed only if the viewer has those fonts installed on his/her System. Font embedding Techniques allows you to use any font on your Blog and these fonts will be viewable to the viewers even if they don’t have the font installed on their Systems. @font-face is the best Font Embedding technique in my opinion but it wont easily work with externally uploaded fonts unless the server has special Access Control Headers for your blog .(blogger wont allow you to upload the font to it’s servers :) So here are certain simple alternative methods to add custom fonts to your blog. These are listed out in an order of my preference :

1. Google Font API
2. Kernest Font API
3. Cufon JavaScript Font Embedding

1. Google Fonts API.

This is the best and robust method to add custom fonts to your blogger blog. It uses the @font-face technique but you needn’t worry about the backend things. You can see a list of available Fonts at the Google Font Directory . When you select a particular Font, Google will provide you with the Embed Code which looks like

<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=FontName' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

Copy out this code and you have to modify it by changing > at the end of the code to /> That is you have to change the code to something like

<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=FontName' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'/>

How To Verify Blog Submit On Technorati

I just registered my blog at Technorati and find something unique. If it is usually to verify your site ownership using a unique meta tag or uploading certain files, but not on Technorati.At first I was confused, I get an email containing a unique code: GGDN9HC9B5QR but not described how to use that code.
According to the instructions in the email, I headed into my Technorati account pages. I thought would find a column to write down the unique code. Apparently not! Then what?
After searching, I get this official statement:
"...make sure the claim code (also called the claim token) is in a post and is visible in your feed.Technorati relies very heavily on feeds for all of our processing, so make sure we can find the code there. And the code needs to be in a post, there are too many ways to get text onto someone else's blog page, so we require that you demonstrate that you can actually make or edit a post to claim a blog..."
Finally I know how to methods of verification at Technorati is by including a unique code in the post or feed. Very unique method, where the code can be viewed by anyone. And it's means not a unique code anymore.LOL.
I hope this post help you who experienced the same problem with me.
