It’s been almost a fortnight since I am using the Windows 8 Developer Preview. The OS, at first impression, is clean and fast. There are several things that are new, several old things replaced...

Two days back, I realized the role of the cabinet in building of a computer.
The same system, the set of mobo, HDD, RAM, works when kept open on a piece of thermocol; it even works when kept in another kind of cabinet; but doesn't work in the cabinet that I purchased!
So I decided to take a detour...

Good day everyone!
Today I’m going to take you through something that we all have faced in our lives, and we all wish to get over it. We all wish that we shouldn’t have let it overcome us, but we realize it only too late…
It’s called PANIC!
All of us have panicked at some or the other point in our life maybe because of an unexpected situation or due to an uncontrollable one or maybe just out of certain fear of something.
With Opera extensions you can be sure that you don’t need to panic even in a panicky situation. Just hit the PANIC BUTTON! And the situation subsidizes immediately…

Let me show you how to go through this.
Just go to the Opera add-ons website:
https://addons.opera.com/addons/extensions/

And select the Panic button, like this:



Now click on install…





And before you can flash your eyelids, the extension will be installed and ready to use!



Now let me explain you how it can prevent you from a panicky situation.
Suppose you have a number of tabs Open and you’re searching for something. You go on opening tab after tab in the pursuit of searching that something which is really very important. At last you find what you’ve been searching for so long, but you see what mess you have created out of your browser – some 10 – 12 tabs open in front of you. You begin to panic…you’re so busy that you can’t manage to close each tab one by one. Now what?!



Panic Button is here to your service! Don’t worry; it’ll get things cleared within a nanosecond flat!

Just hit the little red button with an exclamation mark in the upper right corner of the browsing session window –



Within no time all tabs, except the one that you have been viewing currently, will disappear!



At this stage, the panic button turns GREEN, signifying that it’s working. This also means that there’s a green signal, and you don’t need to panic anymore.



The panic button also mentions how many tabs it has hidden, like in the above case, it’s showing the number 5, and meaning that 5 tabs have been hidden (actually closed).

You may ask how to restore the closed tabs, in case the conditions are now OK??
Just hit the Green button, and voila! All the closed tabs start reloading again!



The panic button becomes red again, though that doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re supposed to panic! The closed tabs reload in a few moments.
The panic button is helpful in a wide range of situations. Sometimes, it can help you manage your computer’s resources by closing tabs that don’t need to be kept open at the instant.
At the same time, suppose you’re in your office, browsing some of your favorite sites and your boss just comes over. The situation is quite panicky, isn’t it?? But no worries, just hit the panic button and before you get into some trouble, you’ll have you boss appreciating you for your hard work!!!

So you can see how helpful the panic button is in dealing with tough occasions!
I hope you’ll surely thank the maker(greiner12) of this extension for developing such a helpful tool for you day-to-day needs…

Hi people!
My name is Gaurav, and I just love the extension which goes by the cheesy name “turn off the Lights” which is, I would say, a Wonderful piece of Technical art! Turn off the lights is simply a great extension designed to dim or “turn off” the background “lights” so that the video is made to play prominently in the foreground. The result is fantastic! It gives a rich movie-like experience when watching videos online(especially on FB)). Although you can always maximize most of the videos to fullscreen, it gives a whole new experience in enjoying videos online in the Opera browser.
Getting the extension is simple, Just go to the Add-ons site: https://addons.opera.com/addons/extensions/
And check for the extension that goes by the name “Turn off the lights”



Now just hit the install Button, like this:



In less than a second the extension gets installed.



it’s really amazing to see the speed with which the installation takes place, as if accelerated by Opera itself!



We’re ready!!! Turn off the lights extension installed!

Let’s have a test run…
I tried using the extension on facebook, for watching a video of my friend.
Here are the results:

Lights on



There you can see a button that can turn off the lights at your wish...


Now let me turn the lights Off, here we go…



Bravo! There you go, with lights turned off you don’t need to worry if someone’s getting disturbed due to your bright monitor light!

The extension works amazingly well on most of the sites, and that means that there are bugs as well. Though a little tweaking can make it to work just as expected. Let me show you where the extension goofs up:

Here – The lights are ON



And now let me show you what happens when the lights turn OFF…

This:



The extension couldn’t identify a video and thus dimmed the entire page!
While this is rare, it does happen. But even then the extension can be enjoyed on a variety of popular sites like youtube, Metacafe, etc.

So, you can see how great it can be…
It’s actually woth a try, I hope you will surely do…!

Hi everyone...!
