I use the website  torrific.com  to download my torrents. How it works is, you give the site the torrent file and it will download it from the seeders. Once the download is complete you can use your browser to download the file via HTTP. The main advantage I find in it is if other user of the site has already downloaded the file, I don't have have to wait for the torrent to complete download. Rather I get the HTTP link instantly. It uses file has to check if the file has been downloaded. What are the sites of similar nature you use?

After using Ubuntu for a long time, chances are you'll end up with junks in your system. By junk I mean packages you installed but no longer in use and temporary/cache files. I usually use two program time and again to clean my system. They are bleachbit and computer-janitor Bleachbit Bleachbit is similart to ccleaner in Windows. It removes your temporary files and cache files. For eg: your browser history, cookies, temporary files and your bash history and so on. Computer-janitor Computer-janitor removes the old unused package. Be careful with this, it will also mark software installed from other source for removal.

Q. Does HTC Desire screen gets scratch? Q. Is HTC Desire screen scratch resistant? A. HTC Desire screen is scratch resistant. I am using the phone for more than a year now without any screen protector or any case. But I've got a tiny scratch on top left part of the screen.

There is already 63 pages long forum post on Lenovo's official forum filled with people complaining about the product. Some lucky users got chance to fix it for free. But Lenovo never acknowledged the problem, never did recall nor informed its users that they are fixing it for free. Most astonishing thing is even though the forum is a...
