Easily Remove left sidebar in New Google search Design
Easily Remove left sidebar in New Google search Design
As everyone up-till now must have surely noticed fresh bing - yahoo like looks of google , while searching . This design was introduced as the latest google update to search . Now googling is more faster , more easier after redesigned sidebar version after google squeezed all these tools and technologies into a single page. Most of the users have liked this fresh look , however the space for results after googling have now been reduced due to sidebar !
However if you are firefox , Opera , Chrome , or IE user , you can now remove the left sidebar in New Google search Designed version :
Just need to type in Address bar :
http://www.google.com/webhp?hl=all
For Chrome :
Install the Hide Google Options extension which gives the option to enable or disable the left sidebar of Google Search.
Otherwise , alternative would be the userscript named as OLD Google which works fine for Firefox and Chrome.
For Firefox:
For majority Firefox users you need to install the Hide Google Options if you do not need the sidebar , you can also toggle enable or disable the Google Search.
Alternative would be this greasemonkey Google Fix Userscript that will greatly help to gid rid of new search box.
These are above options to successfully revert to the old Google interface . No chance for Safari users , as there is no script or addons available ! If invented , we will update on this :P

Easily Export your Nokia Contacts to another Phone
Easily Export your Nokia Contacts to another Phone
The address book of your Nokia phone is stored in the online Ovi Contacts – just like Android phones use Google Contacts – but with one big limitation.
Ovi, until now, offered no export feature so there was no easy way to download your phone’s address book from the web to the computer unless you had a Nokia device at hand. The Ovi Suite, Nokia’s desktop synchronization software, didn’t have an export option for Contacts either so your phone contacts were sort-of locked in Nokia’s cloud.
Madan earlier wrote:
I was using a Nokia E-72 and the data was backed up on Ovi.com, so it’s online and not on my laptop. I am now using an iPhone and would like to sync my contacts but how shall I do that? The original Nokia phone was unfortunately stolen.
Well there’s an easy solution now.
Nokia is discontinuing the Ovi Contacts website (the service will stay but you won’t be able to access your address book from the web browser) and this could be a blessing in disguise for people like Madan who have moved from Nokia to other platforms.
Nokia has set up a microsite - exportcontacts.ovi.com – where you can download your entire Ovi address book in the popular CSV format with a click. You don’t need the Nokia device or the Ovi desktop suite to export your contacts. The CSV file can can then be imported into Google Contacts and it will intelligently merge the duplicate contacts.
You got to do this soon as, according to an email from Nokia, the web access to Ovi Contacts will be disable after January 24, 2012.

Easily export your Facebook friends to Google with Chrome Extension
Easily export your Facebook friends to Google with Chrome Extension
Google+ turns all of the search engine into one giant social network. If you like Google+ and want to add your Facebook friends to it, then all you need is this awesome Chrome extension called Facebook Friend Exporter.
I just don’t know what you feel about Google+ so far, whether you’ve had a chance to try it yet or not, but one thing that really excites me is that it turns all of the search engine into one giant social network.
Google+ is more than just social networking, it’s an extension of Googleitself. Hence the name Google+.
Let me stop describing Google+ . Just watch this video to get a basic idea about it.
Coming to the point – most of us are on and all our beloved friends are in there too.
If you have started like me and want all your Facebook friends on it, one big question starts running through your mind – How to get them ?
Well you know, Google+ doesn’t have an inbuilt way to transfer your Facebook friends over to it. So, you will have to do some monkey business to get your Facebook friends into Google+.
How to do it ?
Getting your friends into Google+ is simple. All you need is this awesomeChrome extension called Facebook Friend Exporter, created by a Google+ user Mohamed Mansour.
1. Once you install, it adds an “Export friends” button to your Facebook toolbar.
2. So just visit your Facebook profile and click on “Export Friends” .
Depending on the number of friends you have, it could take a while, but you will have all updates on the process.
You should notice one thing here, the extension doesn’t directly add your Facebook friends to Google+, it will actually add your friends to Google Contacts.
However, this the most simple and easiest way to go about inviting and adding friends on Google+, as it uses your Google Contacts to suggest people to invite using an easy drag and drop process.Note : Please be aware that exporting your friends from is against its terms and conditions.
