Comparison: Download Managers

Comparison: Download Managers

Most Internet traffic is the videos and songs are circulating out there, either via streaming, P2P or direct download.

The latter concept, direct download, has gained popularity in recent years. It is no longer downloading anything directly from an FTP address. Now you can share files of all types and sizes using sites like Rapidshare, Megaupload or Mediafire.

The main problem of direct discharge is you have to wait a few seconds to download the file in question and can only download one file at a time, unless you want to pay a premium account. This is where programs such as those analyzed below.

jDownloader, Universal Share Downloader, Tucan, RDesc, Mipony and other download managers like are specialized for direct download. Its aim is to download files from Rapidshare and the like automatically, doing the dirty work for you without recourse to anything.

In the variety is the spice

The free hosting sites abound on the Internet. There is something for all tastes and varied capabilities and limitations. This forces many times to split a file into several parts to be able to upload.

Of the programs analyzed, the clear winner in terms of supported sites is Universal Share Downloader, with more than 300 addresses around the world. The rest will continue to serve to the best known, but maybe I'll stop lying if the link is more special.

CTRL + C, CTRL + V

If you download files from Rapidshare or Megaupload often no problem to copy the link (CTRL + C) and paste it into your download program (CTRL + V).

But if you work with a large volume of links, things change. Fortunately, these programs monitor the clipboard or the Web browser and automatically add links to your main window and check if the link is working or has been removed, no matter you add one or twenty.

In particular, Mipony wins, as well as integrating with Internet Explorer and Firefox and monitor the clipboard, has its own Web browser. Universal Share Downloader jDownloader and also monitor clipboard and integrate with Web browsers. For its part, RDesc only monitors the clipboard and Tucan need to add the links manually.

Failed links

One of the main problems of the links Rapidshare, Megaupload or Mediafire is its short duration. Thus it is worth your download manager check if these links work or not.

jDownloader, Universal Share Downloader and Mipony automatically detect failed links, while RDesc and Tucan need to push a button to perform the check.

Captchas and waiting times

There is no point having a direct download manager if you do not get along with captchas, security measure used by major links to make sure that whoever performs the download is a human and not a bot or a program.

While the five programs analyzed recognize captchas, none of them can overcome the waiting time and skip the limitation of a puff at a time with the same IP.

Updates

In connection with the captchas and other protections from Rapidshare, Megaupload and others, managers are required to download updated from time to time to get down files, so that periodic updates are essential.

jDownloader is a clear winner in this area, updated every plugin separately. Second, there are Universal Share Downloader and RDesc, also updated its components but in a more tight for the user.

In the case of Tucan, the update is manual, having to mark the plugins to update.

Conclusions

Broadly, the five tested download managers work very well. Proof of this is the good score they have achieved in Softonic and the number of downloads that have their backs.

Choose one or the other depends on our use of direct download links. jDownloader is properly configured by default, is updated continuously and capture or copy any link you click on your browser.

Universal Share Downloader also gives good results, but its interface is improved.

For its part, Tucan RDesc and are focused completely control the links, deciding which to download and what not, without depending on the program's capture clipboard or not.

Finally, Mipony shares jDownloader ease of use and also has its own integrated Web browser.

Tools for Internet job search

Tools for Internet job search

Find a Job is paradoxically a common occupation thankless and at times very satisfactory. I say this because the performance of the effort is not guaranteed and will know when the fruit. However, ordinary mortals have to go through this process.

Once minded, must be put on the table the tools. When you have a highly specialized professional profile is likely that word of mouth and social relations are most effective. The rest should be marked clear objectives, that is, decide what you want and under what conditions, and with these parameters to start looking.

The mentality that a profile is to a broken and disjointed is not recommended, because if you are suitable for many fields can not be excellent at none. Excellence is always singular.

Once the sector, activity, location, the range of pay and conditions, you can start the search. This has been done traditionally in employment offices, through advertisements in newspapers and agencies. Today, except in cases of advice, it makes sense to find deals on these sites, taking into account that the agencies, newspapers and employment agencies publish them online.

In Spain we have several websites specializing in employment:Infojobs, Laboris, Oficinaempleo, Monster, Infoempleo, Trabajar.com, expansionyempleo, Etc. There are also some regional public employment offices that do not work at all bad. Here you can find a more complete list job portals in Spain. They are not all alike because they have the same sources when publishing deals.

Should take a look at each one and register in those kind of deals that fit what you are looking for. The registration process is long and tedious because you have to create a resume fill in all fields of data. Not worth cutting and pasting. You have to tailor information to what is asked. The good part is you only have to do this once.

In some sites like Monster can create multiple profiles for different field CV which you want to find work. You can also disable a profile for someone else to find businesses.

All are adding tools such as recommendations, language assessments, etc. But in general, can be considered an addition. If a company wants to know the language skills of a candidate will undergo a specific test.

For the job search portals, there are the social networks of professionals. The best known are Linkedin and Xing. The objectives of these networks are more extensive than those of the search portals. Trying to get in touch professionals to create collaborative teams, discussion groups, ask for advice, also seek employment, etc.

In both of them in others is essential to create a well structured CV, putting in place who is going to read. Surely someone from Human Resources who may know very little of the work of the professionals it hires.

Should take full advantage of the tools within each page: tracking offers, visibility of the curriculum, sample letters of introduction, curriculum update alerts, etc.

Your computer can help here, what else is a matter of perseverance. Suerte!

Windows minimize consumption

In addition to using a few programs, the operating system itself spends a good amount of energy. Your primary mission as saving energy is to allow devices to rest when not in use. The heavyweights are the screen, DVD, hard drive and processor.

Bajar the brightness level is essential. You can usually get through the key Function (Fn) and sliders. Can not you see anything? In this case, use BattCursor to lower the brightness automatically after a certain period of inactivity. A curious as you can perform is to put a dark wallpaper.

More complicated is to rest the hard drive, generally what we need. If you have enough RAM, try to disable virtual memory from Control Panel> System> Advanced> Performance. This will prevent Windows makes use of the hard drive when you can use the RAM. Defragment drives is another good idea, it will make disk access faster and more efficient.

Minimize the CPU usage goes to follow the recommendations of the previous sections. That is, use simple alternatives, not having many programs open and close everything that is not strictly necessary.

The hardware also has

Of course, the hardware plays an important role in energy consumption, and we must control its use. As already mentioned, DVD drive consumes a large amount of energy, So it is not advisable to abuse it. Leave a DVD inserted in the reader is a lousy measure. Windows has the annoying habit of reading the content as you open a File Explorer.

Some laptops have the option to remove the disk drive, literally. Is obtained at the same time a reduction in equipment weight and lower power consumption. It is a measure somewhat radical, but quite efficient and simple, if not regularly use the reader.

Any component that does not require to be disconnectedIncluding PCMCIA cards (even if disabled), USB devices like mice and keyboards and, of course, MP3 players connected via USB to recharge your battery.

Probably your computer has Bluetooth, WiFi or other capabilities (compatibility with e-SATA drives, integrated audio card ...) that can be disabled or from the system BIOS or from Windows. If you're not using, turn it off.

Hibernate instead of suspending

Suspend the system is very convenient because you can return to previous state immediately. However, in this way the computer never shuts off completely, So it continues to consume certain energy. If you're not using your computer for a while hibernate instead of suspend.

For short breaks is better SleepBecause enough energy is spent reading the data written to disk.

Adjusts the power plan

Adjust the power plan is a critical step. While you'll generally predefined power plans quite adequate, there will always be the most optimal. How to adjust them in Windows Vista going to go to Control Panel > Power Options. In this section you can change a few aspects of the conduct of the cover or how long it takes Windows to turn off the screen.

If you want to create a new plan (something recommended, rather than modify existing ones) click on Create a power plan. Once it is created, we recommend that pressures Change Plan Settings and then you click Change advanced power settings. In this section you can configure all the features of the plan from a single window instead of in three or four separate sections, as was achieved under the "non-advanced."

Some programs such as Vista Battery Saver and BattCursor can automate the exchange energy plan as if it is using the battery or not.

Moreover, Powerslave change the energy plan by time of day.
