Send Large Files Via Email

2012-08-04T06:41:00.000-07:00

The common problem we face while sending emails is with attachments larger in size for mailing. The other problem is that you cannot attach file with extensions like .exe . Solution to both the problems is very simple.

Use Mail clients who allots more space:

Gmail gives 10 GB of data storage capacity with 25 MB of attachment size. If your file size is less than that, then you can go for Gmail. The new Hotmail or the Outlook offers almost unlimited storage with 100 MB of attachment capacity.For those who don't know, Hotmail is now Outlook.com which is much better and simpler then before and is also gonna give Gmail a tough competition.
Using Google Drive or Dropbox:

Its a two step process. The first step is to upload the file you want to share to Google Drive or Dropbox. The limit of the file size on a free account is 5 GB. Just upload the file and make it 'Public' or 'Anyone with link can see' in the settings for that file. Now, copy paste the link in the mail or press share option. You can send any kind of file through this method.

Using third party clients:

There are many mail clients who do this thing but i personally like WeTransfer for this one. Its free, simple, convenient and easy to use. You can send files having size of maximum 2 GB with it. Just attach the file, add the receivers mail address and enter your email address; click send. That's it. With this method you can send any kind of file.

Hope that these simple tricks and tips got your problem solved. Give your feedback in the comments and don't forget to hit 'like' and 'share'.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 review and specifications

2012-07-24T01:12:00.000-07:00

With the launch Honeycomb OS from Google which was specially build Android tablets showed some friction over the tablet market and with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, Android tablets started to make much sense. The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 is one such tablet in the mid budget range which makes sense.

At a price of Rs.19,300 Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 is a nice tablet for this range. The build quality is good and gives a nice grip while holding. The design is similar to a low budget galaxy smartphone. The back has a plastic grey matte finish which adds the comfort while holding. Coming to the processor and the multi-tasking point, the tab 2 scores good at that. The display is a TFT one, which has a short viewing angle and also looks dull at some parts. The only thing which is needed to be made better is the display. With TouchWiz running over it, it seems bit unresponsive. With calling feature, a plus point for this tab at this price it can be said a good contender for the other tablets in its range like the Galaxy Nexus 7 and others.

7-inch display with 1024 x 600p resolution
1GHz dual-core processor
1GB RAM
16 GB storage
3G capability with standard SIM card
3.15MP rear camera & VGA front camera for video calling
Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for connectivity
Android 4.0.3 (ICS)

Durability test:

I would say that you can go for this tablet but first wait for some time as Apple is going to launch iPad Mini and Amazon is planning for its Kindle Fire 2.

I am giving this Tab 2 7.0 3 stars (★★★). It is an OK type tablet good for this price!

Buy this from Amazon!
