HOW TO : Use the Facebook Save to Read the Links, Pages and Places Later

<a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2014/04/all-facebook-image-size-dimensions-timeline.html" target="_blank">Facebook News Feed </a>is always so messed up for most of the users. It shows the stories based on the various algorithm depending on the interaction of you with your Facebook friends, Pages and interest etc. Also, the changes in "Top Stories" and "Most Recent" plays it part as well in messing up all the updates coming on your News Feed. 
 
Due to this sometimes you miss some important updates from your friends while few updates linger on your News Feed for hours and keep coming back again and again. This makes kind of hard to find an update later in your News Feed. Earlier the only solution for this problem was to either bookmark the link of that particular post or by visiting your friend's profile to check the update again. 
 
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2014/08/save-facebook-links-for-later.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="HOW TO : Use the Facebook Save to Read the Links, Pages and Places Later" border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-rEvnqwBGrHc/U9qQ-q4XlpI/AAAAAAAAKFY/Y95QSQyuOZg/s1600/Save+Links,+Pages,+Music+on+Facebook+for+Later+Use.jpg" title="HOW TO : Use the Facebook Save to Read the Links, Pages and Places Later" /></a></div> 
But now Facebook is out with a useful "Read Later" called Facebook Save feature which let you save Facebook updates to check them later when you want. Facebook Save or the "Read Later" feature supports any web link shared on Facebook, Pages, Places, movies, TV shows, books, Events and music. Unfortunately, it does not support the saving of text status, images and video right now. 
 
Facebook Save is available on Facebook web and also on the official <a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2012/10/facebook-mobile-problems.html" target="_blank">Facebook Mobile app</a>. The procedure to use the Facebook Save is also same for both.

4. To remove a content from Facebook Save list, just click on the "X" mark on the link saved. 
 
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2014/08/save-facebook-links-for-later.html"" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="HOW TO : Use the Facebook Save to Read the Links, Pages and Places Later" border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cMMNU7AWABU/U9qTzvecRFI/AAAAAAAAKF4/bCjnPBA3-TQ/s1600/Save++Music,+Pages,+Links+on+Facebook+for+Later+Use.jpg" title="HOW TO : Use the Facebook Save to Read the Links, Pages and Places Later" /></a></div> 
The content you remove from the Facebook Save page will move to the "Archive" tab. This is a nice feature and really helpful if you want to check a saved link again after removing it from your Facebook Save list. You can also clean up your Archive, by visiting it and deleting a link permanently. You can also "Unarchive" a link to move it to Facebook Save list from the Archive tab. 
 
For mobile devices, you will find the Facebook Save option under the "More" option of the Facebook App. Rest of the procedures are same like the Facebook web.

HOW TO : Buy Apple Products Tax-Free

One of the worst thing about buying expensive gadgets is paying taxes. Taxes are what increases the price of the product a lot actually. But there is a good news now for the <a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2013/03/apple-fanboy-infographic-quiz.html" target="_blank">Apple lovers</a> in USA. In the upcoming weeks, some area of the United States of America will be offering ‘Sales Tax Holiday’. 
 
As the name suggests, during the ‘Tax-Free Weekend’ products can be purchased without having the liability to pay tax on them. Apple knows very well that this can help Apple in selling more products and that is why, Apple is sending emails officially regarding this event informing its customer to buy more products during this period. Apple's email educates customer about their state's tax holiday and how they can buy Apple products without paying the sales taxes to the state. 
 
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2014/07/buy-apple-products-tax-free-usa.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="HOW TO : Buy Apple Products Tax-Free in USA" border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-zBDZDz4Eq3g/U9o-4aLzpBI/AAAAAAAAKFI/8xfMBcIqd_U/s1600/Buy+Apple+Products+without+Paying+Sa;es+Tax+in+USA+America.jpg" title="HOW TO : Buy Apple Products Tax-Free in USA" /></a></div> 
Apple's email regarding <a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/search/label/Apple">buying Apple products</a> without paying tax states - 
 
<blockquote>If your state offers a tax holiday this summer, you can buy select Apple products without paying sales tax. 
 
*When shopping online, sales tax will appear during checkout, but you’ll see the correct tax amount on your email order confirmation.</blockquote> 
Funny thing is that Apple is even accepting in the email that payment system at Apple's online store is not smart enough to show the taxless amount while checking out. But customer will receive the correct amount in the order confirmation email. 
 
But one thing people need to know that not all states in the USA are offering the “Sales Tax Holiday”. The states where you can buy Apple products without paying sales tax are Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Missouri, New Mexico, South Carolina and Tennessee. 
 
Also, not all the states will have this tax holiday on the same date. Customers in different states will have tax holiday on different dates. So, if you belong to any of these states and planning to <a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2011/05/create-itunes-app-store-account-without.html">buy a new Apple product</a> without paying sales tax then, better to confirm the dates of ‘Sales Tax Holiday’ in your state.

How to Increase Your Twitter Followers Easily in 8 Simple Steps (Infographic)

Twitter boasts close to<a href="http://www.statisticbrain.com/twitter-statistics/" target="_blank"> 650,000,000 active users </a> who are collectively responsible for <a href="http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1418091/000119312513390321/d564001ds1.htm" target="_blank">sending approximately half a billion tweets every single day</a>. This means that if you are serious about creating a strong presence on social media, you cannot afford to ignore this particular platform. However, it is not enough to simply register an account. You also need to attract those all important followers to fully <a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2012/12/optimize-twitter-profile-tweets.html" target="_blank">take advantage of the power of Twitter</a>. 
 
Thanks to WhoIsWhostingThis.com, <a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2011/03/know-who-unfollowed-you-on-twitter.html" target="_blank">finding these Twitter followers</a> is easy! The infographic below shows how you can double your Twitter followers by spending just a couple of minutes each day maintaining your account. You can start with the basics such as working with the connections you already have in Gmail, Yahoo and other address books, in fact when <a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2010/10/12-ways-to-tweet-more-than-140.html" target="_blank">setting up your Twitter account </a>you will be asked to do just that! However, the key to gaining more followers lies is how you interact with them. 
 
Like all social media, <a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2014/05/twitter-hashtags.html" target="_blank">Twitter thrives on building relationships</a>. Tweets should not feel like broadcasting announcements, rather they should be conversational, encouraging people to respond. When you <a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2012/08/stop-writing-blog-posts-for-keywords.html" target="_blank">put out quality content</a> that your followers relate to instead of self-promotion you are more likely to <a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2011/08/top-5-ways-to-get-retweets-on-twitter.html" target="_blank">get Re-Tweets and follows</a>. 
 
It is also important to spend some time promoting your Twitter account. If your user name is simple and memorable this is easy to do. Why not add your Twitter handle to your business cards and promotional material. If you have a store, get custom decals for the window encouraging customers to follow you on Twitter. You can even talk to people you meet and instead of agreeing to find each other on Facebook, you should ask to connect on Twitter. 
 
These are just a few of the way you can boost your Twitter following. Check out the infographic below for a complete guide or <a href="http://www.whoishostingthis.com/compare" target="_blank">click here</a> to visit WhoIsWhostingThis.com and learn more about them.

Reddit : The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (Infographic)

Ah, the ultimate questions about right and wrong. Since J.D. Salinger's The Catcher in The Rye to David Michod's The Rover, you cannot go through your life without being tempted to find the ultimate answers to questions like: If I help, am I selfish? If I kill for good, am I good? What is not right and why am I here watching The Leftovers when there's no meaning to life? That question is in the center of the online forum Reddit. It's a site of knowledge but also causes damage to some of its users, and so how do we label it? 
 
We label it on what we consider to be right in our laws and in what we know. We should label it through the science we used to get through here in this modern times. When The Vikings pillaged and The Turks attacked the Rome, where is the right there? Suicide attacks, excesses of life and everything else in between: what are we to do about it? Glean on the ideas of what makes a thing right or wrong with this <a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2010/07/digg-vs-reddit.html">infographic about Reddit</a> which shows all the charity works performed by Reddit along with its negative side.

So, you can connect the display of your laptop or smartphone to your HDMI supported TV and enjoy the visual in big size.

<h2>Tronsmart T1000 Mirror2TV HDMI Dongle Adapter : Hands-On Review</h2> 
<h3>Inside the Box</h3> 
You will not find much inside the retail box of Tronsmart T1000 Mirror2TV. There is the WiFi HDMI Dongle Adapter, multi-output cable and a user manual. That’s all you need actually to use this device.

Tronsmart T1000 Mirror2TV HDMI Dongle Adapter is compact in size and not much bigger than the size of a standard USB drive. On one end there is the HDMI pin connector just like a USB drive and on the other end, you will find a micro USB port. 
 
There are small holes in the back of the device and a little blue LED which turns on when you plug the device to the power source. The overall size of the device is small and it weighs just 15 grams. You can carry it anywhere you want.

Top 10 Twitter Clients for Android Smartphone

I don't know, one of the many reasons why we buy an <a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/search/label/Android">Android smartphone</a> is because we can keep in touch with our Twitter and <a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2011/04/10-types-of-facebook-friends-from.html">Facebook friends</a>, i know i do! 
 
Currently there being a load of Twitter clients available on the Google Play Store it becomes difficult for a newbie to choose which of the Twitter client for android suits his device the best, so here i bring to you the 10 best Twitter clients for Android. 
 
<h2>10 Best Twitter Clients for Android Smartphone</h2> 
<h3>1. Tweetcaster Pro for Twitter</h3> 
<img alt="10 Best Twitter Clients For Android - Tweetcaster Pro" src="https://lh3.ggpht.com/ul3T7M8H8TRnNpqoBzOVymZXCFtfWYP7LluOeugLv_fJ0Le0jTi9RidLNDO3HcZImQ" /> 
 
This is an ultimate Twitter client and is used by many because of its really cool UI plus its many features which makes tweeting a lot more easy and fun. Its interface is very nice and clean, probably the best out there, and you also get many themes to choose from. This app is so popular that it has also been reviewed by the guys at CNET. 
 
Some of the features in this app are Speak to Tweet, manage multiple Twitter accounts, post to twitter and Facebook simultaneously, schedule your tweets, read it later service, Twitlonger service to <a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2010/10/12-ways-to-tweet-more-than-140.html">tweet long tweets</a>, and Smartlists. 
 
 
<h3>2. Ubersocial for Twitter</h3> Ubersocial is another Twitter client which also has a balanced featureset offering a savvy UI for its users and also giving you access to tweeting elements which you will not get in any other Twitter client. 
 
The highlights of this app are inner circles which is similar to Smartlists found in Tweetcaster, mute users and certain hashtags, <a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2011/08/update-google-plus-twitter-facebook.html">cross posting to Facebook and Twitter</a>, customize menus (in short make your own ubermenu), livepreview which is a small browser built into the app so that you can view links, photos and videos without leaving the app, shrink links, tweet longer, etc. 
 
 
<h3>3. Plume Premium for Twitter aka Touiteur</h3> Plume is a very simple Twitter client and very fast too. It was first known as Touiteur but was later changed to Plume. I currently use Plume Premium because it is quite quick in pulling tweets and as i have a quite poor data connection, it becomes the perfect app for me. The UI is very gorgeous and you also get the option to colorize tweets from different users so the app looks very colorful. 
 
Plume also has many other features (and rather even more), you would look for in a Twitter client such as internal browser, mute users, manage multiple accounts, pull to refresh, autocomplete usernames, swipe to scroll, bit.ly support to tweet longer, geotagging feature, etc. 
 
 
<h3>4. Seesmic</h3> 
<img alt="10 Best Twitter Clients For Android - Seesmic" src="https://lh6.ggpht.com/W-oik5PdcknDAfIeUVtBDJt2455jH9EVD9qKItRSVUyF6tCR-ykKBWtrUjHM1H5vpA" /> 
 
 
Seesmic offers you to manage both Twitter and Facebook accounts simultaneously, if you are a pro user, you will find this app very helpful. It has a very cute UI (red and white), and I really like the koala bear icon. You can see both your Twitter feed and Facebook feed, and simultaneously manage both the accounts. Add a status on Facebook or tweet on Twitter, Seesmic handles the tasks really well without being a memory hogger. 
 
In addition you also get the advanced tweeting features such as tweet longer service, url shortener, share photos and videos, preview pics, autocomplete usernames, geotagging and retweet with comment. 
 
Another unique feature about this app is you can directly create a shortcut on your homescreen to jump to a specific tab such you can create a shortcut to a Twitter list, Facebook page, etc. 
 
 
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/8qqY43_l0go" width="560"></iframe> 
 
 
<h3>5. TweetDeck</h3> Tweetdeck manages more than your Twitter and Facebook accounts, you can also handle Google Buzz and Foursquare account. There is no other Twitter client which gives you such flexibility in managing your Columns like Tweetdeck does. You can add, delete, move any column you want very easily. The refresh feature on Tweetdeck needs a little tuning but apart from that it is a full featured Twitter and Facebook app. 
 
Geotagging, adding pictures to tweets, awesome UI, and widget support is what makes Tweetdeck really stand out of the crowd. 
 
 
<h3>6. HootSuite</h3> Hootsuite also allows you to control multiple social networks, namely Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and Foursquare. This is also a very neat social client, perhaps recommended if you are a social media person and a power user who needs to manage multiple accounts from a single app. 
 
You can schedule your tweets, receive notifications and access your Twitter stats such as total clicks and impressions on a tweet, and swipe to scroll are other major features of this app. 
 
 
Also Check : <a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2010/10/twitter-wap-clients-complete-list.html">Twitter Wap Clients : A Complete List</a> 
 
 
<h3>7. Twidroyd</h3> 
 
<img alt="10 Best Twitter Clients For Android - TWIDROYD" src="https://lh6.ggpht.com/trtCRcP_OkNAMQHPiFsWfFT9K42pu1qADL3pD9kkpSKXFLTpx5kXoP0R_YpN9tPHfA" /> 
 
 
Average in looks but powerful in features. Twidroyd is popular among many, and this Twitter client gives you all the necessary functions for tweeting. Tweet longer, URL shortener, manage multiple Twitter accounts, Twitter trends, smart lists, preview pics are some of the highlights of this app. 
 
Wait a minute, and best of all no ads, that's right and its completely free as well. There are very few apps these days which have no ads but still are free, perhaps we should thank such developers, shouldn't we? 
 
 
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/zRTEZMCUB8g" width="560"></iframe> 
 
 
<h3>8. Twicca</h3> Twicca is yet another Twitter client for Android. Sleek UI, advanced features and the option to install feature specific plugins. Twicca is nearly the complete Twitter client you could get. It has numerous features and plugins for Twicca are available on the fly. Some of the many plugins include Twitpic plugin for Twicca, translate plugin, highlight to search plugin, draft plugin, etc. 
 
Its easy, you decide which functionality you want in your Twitter client and trash the rest. Only con is, it is a little bit slow on pulling tweets, apart from that i would personally recommend this app for you. 
 
 
<h3>9. Twitter</h3>How can we forget the official Twitter client for Android? Real time notifications, retweet with comment, trending topics and twitter's very own UI, what more could you want? Regarded as certainly the best client for an average Twitter user this app is hard to resist. 
 
But there are a few other cons as well, no twitlonger service, no scheduler or url shortener and many other features are missing in this app. So its really upto you to decide if you want additional tweeting features or are satisfied with the features the official Twitter app has to offer you! 
 
 
<h3>10. Dabr</h3>I heard about this app from one of my friend. Ok in the UI, not that great but leaves a very small memory footprint. This app is for users who just want the simple tweeting features and nothing else. Dabr is fast and very basic, limited features and a very light app, just 108kb in size. 
 
I guess its upto you to decide which Twitter client is best for your tastes, a balance of UI and features then I would say to go for Tweetcaster, Ubersocial or Plume. If you want to manage multiple social accounts then go for Seesmic, Tweetdeck or Hootsuite and if you want access to extraneous set of tweeting features then I had to say Twidroyd or Twicca. 
 
If you are an average tweeter, who wants simple and basic level features then better go for Twitter or Dabr. 
 
Hope this article was useful to you. Please make your comments as your personal opinions are very valuable to us. Thanks!
