Review: Younity bridges gaps between device storage, cloud computing, & social

Younity is a combination of file sharing, social sharing, and cloud storage that works on many levels, though with some reservations due to the setup requirements. While it doesn't offer centralized storage like a cloud tool, it facilitates active, real-time transfer of files between devices running the Younity app to give you universal access to those files, and the results are mostly good.

For Younity to be useful, it needs to be first installed on every device on which you want to share files, including desktop computers. This will take a few minutes to do, and if you want … Read more

Review: Manage what you copy with ClipNote Special

ClipNote Special packs so many neat goodies that you might be a little overwhelmed. Once you catch your breath, you'll wonder how you ever did work on your mobile gadget without it.

Once you don't need what's on your clipboard anymore, you can delete everything with one touch. If you want to keep something through multiple deletes, you can save it as a favorite. The app buttons can sometimes seize … Read more

Review: WizMouse keeps windows active and clickable

WizMouse from Antibody Software takes care of an annoying issue in Windows that has only gotten worse as PC screens have grown bigger: the need to click each window before you can use your mouse in it. With WizMouse running, any visible window is active; just mouse over it to activate menus, commands, and links for clicking. Whether windows overlap or are separated by space, WizMouse treats them the same. And not just buttons, either: WizMouse also enables scrolling, even in applications lacking mouse wheel support (though that's an experimental option that can cause "strange behavior" in … Read more

Video download options

The GetGo YouTube Downloader is a software application for downloading your favorite videos and/or audio. You can view them offline on your computer or on other supported devices in a number of formats.

Overall, this video downloader isn't the best out there. It managed to download a 3-minute video in a little over 2 minutes -- the output was an MP4 (iPod Touch) -- and the video quality was clean, but the audio wasn't. It sounded a little like it was underwater. Other similar download software has had better sound but not as high quality video. One … Read more
