How to send a Secret message that will Self-Destruct in the Recipient's Inbox?

          Sometimes you need to share private information(account number, password or various bank information) with a family member, friend or Colleague. It is simply possible to send the personal information via email or chat message to the recipient.


However they might forget to delete the message and thereby its risky as the private information may be viraled.Wouldn't it be fantastic if you would have been able to share the message/information via a self destructing message which automatically gets deleted once it has been read?

This is where a very useful website BURN NOTE(www.burnnote.com)  comes into action.
It allows someone to send a message to someone else in such a manner that the message will be automatically deleted in predefined time. This ensure that your message truly remains private.

All you need to do simply is start your browser and connect to www.burnnote.com  and type the private message . For security the recipient cannot copy the messge and it is also possible to put password on the self destructing message . BurnNote also allows you to set the prdefined time after which the message gets automatically deleted from the receiver's inbox.

2  .CLick on OPTIONS button to access all various options available to you.
3  .Once you are done after typing the private message and selecting various options, Click on Send  button.
4.  Burn Note will create a link for you. Now you need to paste the link to recipient to share the message. Recipient will be able to read the message only after typing the passsword(if you choose one).

The best part is that the message can be viewed only Once and will get deleted automatically after n number of seconds.

How to convert your phone into a Remote Control For your computer?

Everyone of us always wondered to control of our laptops and PCs with mobile.
Being precise let me tell that one can do this by using Unified Remote app.
Unified Remote comes  in two parts -the Unified remote server that needs to be installed on computer and UNIFIED REMOTE app that needs to be installed on your  Android  phone.
Firstly install the  Unified Remote server from http://www.unified remote.com on your computer and make sure that Windows firewall is not blocking it.

Once you have installed the server on your computer, you should download and install the UNIFIED REMOTE from the google play store on your android phone.

As soon as you launch the app on your phone, it will ask you to to automatically scan for coresponding server or maually add one. I recommend you to manually add the server.

Now if your computer is connected to Internet through a router, you need to enable POrt Forwarding ion it so that your android app is able to connect to your computer
You can get the detailed instruction on enable port forwarding by visiting
