How to send Direct messages to multiple twitter users

               Do u want to send multiples direct messages to Twitter users? By default , twitter has provision to send only one direct message ( dm ) at a time. This can lead to lots of time wastage in case you wanna send some private message to many followers on Twitter. For this there is a freeware MultiDM web service thats  integrated with twitter . After authenticate with this app with twitter, you can send send multiple messages to the twitter users.

             Direct Messages are private tweets that are only visibleto the sender and the recipient . When you send a Twitter DM to another user, the tweet shows up in his Twitter Inbox while a copy of that message gets saved into your Sent Items just like regular email.
Twitter lets you send direct messages to any other Twitter user provided he or she is following you. The other big limitation is that you can only send one DM at a time.
There are many tools to check spam , backup twitter but Up-till now neither Twitter’s web interface nor any of their their desktop or mobile clients support multiple DMs but you can use this online app - TweetGuru to message multiple Twitter users with one go.
Just authenticate the app with your Twitter account and type the usernames of Twitterers you want to message and hit Send Multiple Message .

Note : Maximum number of people you can DM is 12 at a time.

Shorten YouTube videos with Youtu.be url


        Link shortener services are many available to ensure that those useful URLs you're sharing don't take up too much precious character count while also giving you an inkling of what you're about to click on .And now in the war of URL shortening services ,Youtube have also launched  URL shortens service YouTu.be.
Its just like tr.im or tinyurl which are very famous .
             You need to use AutoShare to link up your YouTube account to social networks like Twitter and Google Reader. Then, whenever you favorite a video on YouTube, for example, that action will get syndicated out to your network, who will see this shortened edition of the video's URL.
To use youtu.be manually, simply take a URL like
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdeioVndUhs
and replace the
"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=" with "http://youtu.be/"
to get:  
http://youtu.be/FdeioVndUhs

Plug that shorter URL into a browser, and you'll see it redirects to that video.
Thats now a better service but still, the link shrinked does not become so small , because its still hard to remember link because the url cannot be selected and is automatically generated while uploading video , and not almost like url shortening services like List of all url shortners and similarly of googles own Goo.gl

    Translate english in indian lanuages



    Google has a very good service called Google Transliterate.
    This service is only for the Indic languages , i mean only for indians ,as only indians can understand indian languages lol . It boasts right now upto 11 languages
    1. Bengali ,
    2. Gujarati ,
    3. Hindi ,
    4. Kannada ,
    5. Malayalam ,
    6. Marathi ,
    7. Punjabi ,
    8. Nepali ,
    9. Tamil ,
    10. Telugu and
    11. Urdu
    Unlike Google Translate, Google Transliterate is a totally different concept. The name speaks for itself. You can easily ,fastly change and translate any language online and that too free . It is great tool if you want to give a presentation in another language with same pronunciation .
    Google Transliteration offers an option for converting English characters to the characters used in Hindi. This lets you type Hindi words phonetically in English script and then have them appear in Hindi.
    Note that this is not the same as translation - it is the sound of the words that are converted from one alphabet to the other, not their meaning.

    For example

    i wrote
    GOOD MORNING
    and i selected hindi language , i got
    गुड मोर्निंग
    People do not use Google Translate for official work because many –a--times it gives wrong translations or something very weird. In that case Google Transliterate comes to your rescue.
    It can also be directly used in websites and sending mail and for more purposes , see the code here http://t13n.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/blet/docs/help_hi.html
