Yoono

Saturday, November 1st, 2008

Yoono is a plugin which has been around for a couple years now and I’ve seen it both featured in the Firefox plugin directory and reviewed on a number of other websites. I guess the best way to describe it is as the Flock sidebar for Firefox, however with support for more social networks and [...]

New Windows Live Photo Gallery Plugins

Thursday, September 18th, 2008

Today after weeks of rumours and leaks the Windows Live Wave 3 beta was released for public download and testing.
There is so much to talk about but I’ll just stick to what’s relevant, the new Live Photo Gallery and also the final release of Live Writer. Writer has always supported extensions but now includes [...]

The 3 Best Paint.NET Plugin Packs

Friday, September 12th, 2008

Paint.NET started out as a replacement for the Windows Paint program, but has since grown into something much more over the last few years. The Gimp is another open source alternative which is much more powerful however I prefer using Paint.NET just because it’s that much simpler and easier to use.
What you may be [...]

GimmeSomeTune; an iTunes Plugin You Need

Monday, September 8th, 2008

 
About a month ago I decided it  was time for me to download iTunes and try it out. It gets consistently referred to as the best music jukebox (and perhaps the most popular as well) I tried it for a very short time a few years ago but quickly uninstalled it for being horribly [...]

VistaBird 0.4 – My Theme-in-Progress

Saturday, September 6th, 2008

Songbird is coming along nicely and 0.7 is better then ever. If it wasn’t for the hideously bad memory usage (150mb while idle) than I think there’s a fair chance it could really take off. It’ll be interesting to see what the version 1 release in December is going to be like.
One thing they’ve done [...]

Using LastFm with MediaMonkey Scripts

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

Media Monkey, the ultimate tagging solution for your music library.
The sheer comprehensiveness and number of features alone is staggering, but Media Monkey excels at one other thing; managing huge music libraries. When Windows Media Player chokes, iTunes falters and Songbird crawls away sheepishly Media Monkey can shoulder the load and display thousands of songs [...]

XMPlay Audio Player

Saturday, August 30th, 2008

This is guest post from Martin over at gHacks. Chances are that that’s where you’ve come from anyway, so he doesn’t need much of an introduction!

Josh asked me to write a few articles as a guest blogger here at Extendably and I figured it would be a nice way to educate the masses about [...]

AutoRate Songs in Media Monkey

Sunday, August 24th, 2008

I just reviewed music management software Media Monkey over at gHacks today. I mentioned that it can be extended using scripts.
Today I found a great script which although it’s a little old, it still works well with the latest Media Monkey release, 3.03.
AutoRate 2.2
I would love to have all of my songs rated properly [...]

Photosynth released as public browser plugin

Thursday, August 21st, 2008

Forget Aero, forget the iPhone and and forget multi-touch technology… Photosynth is hands-down the coolest end-user product I’ve seen in years.
I say that because amazing prototypes and services come out of companies and research labs on a regular basis, but all too often they never reach the light of day again… or if they [...]
