Paragon NTFS & HFS+ for Android Removes Interoperability Barriers between Android and Mac OS / Windows PCs

Incompatibility issues always are troublesome when you work in multiple platforms. Now-a-days, both Windows and Mac are widely used and as such interoperability barriers between Android and Mac OS / Windows PCs are getting strengthened. Very often a Windows user fails to record a program received by an Android-based media center to his USB stick (using NTFS) and a MacOS user copies a new movie onto an HFS+ formatted portable HDD but fails to play that on a Android-based media player. Both of these happens due to the lack of built in drivers for NTFS and HFS+ in Android based Smartphones. Paragon software has recently released a new application called Paragon NTFS & HFS+ for Android, that installs a driver on Android and is currently the only solution available on the market that mounts NTFS/HFS+ formatted USB drives or SD cards automatically! According to the developer 

You can get full and unlimited access to the most widespread file systems in the World on your Smartphone! Easily copy, transfer and modify data on NTFS volumes alongside with HFS+ ones. Forget about incompatibility issues between your mobile handheld and its big brothers - PC and Mac. Attach to your device any flash drives, hard disk divers and other media with NTFS and HFS file systems and work with them as if there have simple FAT32 one.

Close Duplicate and Emply Tabs in Firefox with Duplicate Tab Closer Extension

Tabbed Browsing made internet browsing smoother by removing distractions. It has become popular since Mozilla implemented this feature in its open source browser Firefox and mainly this is the feature that made Firefox the better choice among technologically inclined peoples.

To quickly reduce system resource usage originating from duplicate and empty tabs, you can use the Duplicate Tab Closer extension for Firefox.

There are a number of desktop dictionary software and online directories available that you can use but to quickly learn about an unknown word, a browser add-on is the best one to have. Multi Dictionary Lookup is a Firefox Addon that can quickly lookup a word from one of several different dictionaries. Currently it supports the Free Dictionary, the Urban Dictionary, and the Bee Dictionary. In words of the developer,

I created this add-on because I felt the need for a dictionary plug-in that lets me look up the definition of a word without leaving the page that I am reading. A simple right click on the highlighted word brings up a choice of dictionaries with which to look up the word. New words constantly appear in the English language, and such words may not be present in the official English dictionary. For such words, I consult the Urban Dictionary. For some words, it helps to know the synonym and antonym, along with sample usage in a sentence. For such words, I consult the Bee Dictionary.For the rest, the Free Dictionary is the best!
