If you’re an early adopter who got burned by Blu-Ray’s victory over HD DVD, Wired’s How-To Wiki details how to convert your old-and-busted HD DVDs to the victorious Blu-Ray format. The catch is that the process, from start to finish, is a major pain, and you’ll need both an HD DVD drive and a Blu-Ray burner on your PC. In all the conversion is probably more of a hassle and just as expensive as re-purchasing your HD DVDs in Blu-Ray or buying a dual-format player, so if you’re really considering going through this process, you may want to take that into account that before diving in. If you were stung by the demise of the HD DVD, let’s hear how you plan to cope in the comments.

Sometimes, when you want to open a file in notepad and find there is no direct solution, and going through the whole procedure of opening up notepad first, then selectively opening the file from there takes some serious time if you do it frequently. What if you could open any file with notepad, wordpad or just about any other text editor just by right clicking on it? Yes, you can.

To open any file from Notepad, do this:

• Start Run. (Start->Run)
• Type “sendto”.
• The sendto folder will be opened.
• Now create a shortcut of the text editor you want to use.
• For example, to use notepad, simply create a shortcut of notepad in this folder.

Now, you can right click on any file, go to the send to menu, and send the file to notepad to have it opened in notepad. And it works for any kind of file which you have on your system.

Besides notepad, you can also create shortcuts of any other text editor such as Wordpad, Metapad, etc. and have the file opened in them. Just make a new shortcut of them in the sendto folder.

Note: This tweak works in a per user basis in Windows, which means if this is done by user A on a system, it will not work for user B on the same system.

Everyone and their grand mothers know that Windows clipboard captures only piece of text or any data at a time. CLCL is a clipboard monitoring utility which lets you monitor all clipboard activity and automatically save all data transferred through it. It is quite compact (100 KB) and doesn’t even needs installation. Just unzip and run.

Supports All Formats (text, images …)

It supports all clipboard formats from just plain text to OLE objects (an image, word documents formats etc). It also provides support for Unicode Text format through a plug-in. Various plug-ins extend its functionality such as uppercase/lowercase conversion, Word Wrap, Always on Top, etc.

It actually runs in as two applications: the monitor itself, which resides in the system tray, captures the clipboards’ content automatically, and lets you view the last few captured items right from the context menu, and the configuration utility.

It is free, lightweight and extremely easy to use. If you copy and paste a lot more than usual, and need to reuse clipboard’s content, then this utility is for you.
