Rapidshare boost one of the largest file hosting website on the planet!!! If you’re looking for a particular out there, this is the goldmine and perhaps the standard. RapidShare is a German-owned one-click hosting pay- and free-service (with certain restrictions & limitations) website that operates from Switzerland and is financed by the subscriptions of paying users. Rapidshare is one of the world’s largest file-hosting sites with millions of files stored on its servers. According to Alexa, Rapidshare.com is currently the 12th most visited website globally!!!

File Sharing

The advantages of Rapidshare is that it allows users to upload files conveniently so that other friends can retrieve them, usually for files that cannot easily be stored and send through email. Users also normally don’t have an internet server to upload these. By paying a small subscription, users can send and retrieve huge amount of data (gigabytes) and the subscription model allows for short term (3 days, a month) to longer term (a quarter, a year) depending on what you need and can afford. The value proposition allows you to perhaps send all your photos across to someone else at ease. After you uploaded the files, you can send them a link to download. Unlike other file sharing service, rapidshare download speed is fast. Over time, the network a massed a ton of files. The problem is the files are hard to get to. For example, if you forgot the link you used 3 months ago, or perhaps if you are nosy on what other files are out there that maybe useful to you. Rapidshare does not provide an easy to use file search.

As a result, a number of rapidshare search engines had been built for this purpose, to allow you to access these files easily (like using Google). Here we’ll tell you the top 10 Rapidshare Search Engines we found so that you can literally do all the easy searches for your own use. (more…)

VMWare is a greta technology where your one single PC can be virtualize into many, or run multiple OS, and a mix and match of these. Imagine your XP machine running Vista, Windows 2003 Server, and other hybrids like XP Media Edition without re-installing your mahcine from scratch. Now imagine you can run any one of these whenever you feel like needing it. It’s very simple yet powerful concept. I’s the concept of virtualization…

I have been playing with VMWare for over a year and it has helped me tremendously testing various technology. With my Quad Core system, it’s blazingly fast. Over time, the systems I built get very big and processor intentive. How often have we hear about complain on VMWare Slow Disk, VMWare Optimization, VMWare boost performance?  There’s a couple of good resources online and I just want to share them here with you:

• I need more performance out of my VMware environment 
• Citrix on VMware Recommendations
• VMWare Workstation Performance Tuning

Enjoy!!!
