Change notepad view with simple trick

In earlier post I have explained How to use browsers as Notepad (click here). Now let see how we can change the view/appearance of a browser notepad differently. While doing any work in our system, normally we use NOTEPAD for write something in it. Notepad is a general tool which is most useful and generic tool to write something in it. generally all the windows notepad tools are in same format and it really boring to write anything in it.SO What if the screen color changes when we are writing any thing on the screen? and What if it gives you line number as give us the color to words in text? Then we are so Interested to write anything on the screen. we can achieve this both by suing some script in browser. Here we do not use the notepad tool. we need a chrome browser and some code (Chrome browser will more fast and suitable for this code).

Specialty :

The specialty of the the below  code is, it will capture the typing speed and increases the color intensity  to maximum color(In our case maximum color is red )  and when you slow down you typing then it slowly decreases the color intensity and give you the color accordingly (When we stopped typing then it will slowly decreases color intensity from RED to White)

Step 1: Go to Browser(Chrome or Mozilla Fire Fox)

Note: In some versions of Mozilla and Internet explorer this version will not work because of version incompatibility

Step 2: Copy and paste the below code in the address bar of the browser and press Enter. Now browser will allowing you to write anything on the browser screen attributes provided in the code.

Code: 

Copy the entire code in below box

data:text/html, <html> <head> <link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'> <style type="text/css"> html { font-family: "Open Sans" } * { -webkit-transition: all linear 1s; }</style> <script>window.onload=function(){var e=false;var t=0;setInterval(function(){if(!e){t=Math.round(Math.max(0,t-Math.max(t/3,1)))}var n=(255-t*2).toString(16);document.body.style.backgroundColor="#ff"+n+""+n},1e3);var n=null;document.onkeydown=function(){t=Math.min(128,t+2);e=true;clearTimeout(n);n=setTimeout(function(){e=false},1500)}} </script> </head> <body contenteditable style="font-size:2rem;line-height:1.4;max-width:60rem;margin:0 auto;padding:4rem;">

below are some of the screens how the color of the browser screen changes according to our typing speed

Get faster maps using Google LITE mode || Google Lite

Hello Everyone!!!!! When ever we go to new places we don't the exact locations of a particular place. So we generally open Google map and search the location. But sometimes this takes so much time to load the location of the page and this is because of some extra feature added to the present Google maps, like loading the 3D images and Earth view, Showing your computer’s location on the map, measuring the distance between places,coordinates of the routes, Draggable routes, and etc. These newly added features will take more time to load the page if you are having the low internet connection.

To increase the search speed and to access the location in the maps more fast, we have to remove all the features from the existed application and this can not be possible. But technically we can stop these features by using the Google LITE mode

Trick #1:

Go the below Google maps link.

https://www.google.com/maps/?force=lite

In the beginning of the search box and click on menu symbol (with horizontal bars). Now you will see the LITE mode switched on your device.

Now your map page is more faster than earlier. It will exclude all the below mentioned features from the map page loading and run faster while searching any location.

• Seeing 3D imagery and Earth view
• Showing your computer’s location on the map
• Setting home and work
• Searching nearby, measuring the distance between places, and getting coordinates
• Reporting a map data problem in Google Maps
• Embedding a map
• Sending a place to your car
• Viewing My Maps in Google Maps
• Draggable routes

If you want to revert back to the present Google maps then click on "Switch back to full maps"

Trick #2:

To get more faster  then click on the below link and you will see the old version of Google which doesn't contain any of the above features so it will be faster to search.

https://www.google.com/lochp

Generally, the previous version of Google maps are more faster than the present Google maps. So Some times its better, do not upgrade/update the changes of any app/software if its working well and good.

Note: Second trick is more faster than first trick, and it will also works in our smartphones

Browse websites without internet || Using Chrome browser

Hello everyone!!! In Previous posts I  explained how to watch youtube videos in offline mode (i.e without internet) Imagine If we can browse any webpage in offline, that means browse any webpage without internet. Then that would be a very awesome tweak Do you believe  that, Is this possible? Answer is NO. Now imagine If we can browse the webpages in offline which were opened recently, Do you believe that, Is this possible? Answer is YES. You can browse the websites without internet by using chrome browser in your System/Mobile. This trick will work for the websites which are opened recently in chrome browser.


This trick will also useful, when you are browsing for some important websites and suddenly your internet connection is disabled in your system due to some technical issues. Then by using this below chrome feature you can reload recently opened pages and continue your work


Step 1: Open chrome browser then copy paste the chrome://flags// in the address and press enter. A list of options will appear on the screen.


Step 2: Try to search "Enable Offline Load Stale Button" by using Ctrl+F(find)

Step 3: Change the value in the drop down box from Default to Enable.

Step 4: Now browser will ask you relaunch the entire browser then click 'relaunch now'.

Step 5: Now try to open any webpage, for example www.tekitricks.blogspot.com. Now this page is stored in your local system.

Step 6: Disconnect the internet in your and reopen the earlier page that you opened i.e., www.tekitricks.blogspot.com. A normal error page will appear with some "show saved copy". After clicking on this, again the page will open from the local memory.

Note : This trick will only work for pages which are opened recently in chrome browser. Because when ever you open the any webpage, browser will store the page in the local memory(browsers local cache memory)and the size of this local memory is very less(say 2MB to 4MB). so the next time you try to open the same page without internet then browser will bring the page which stored in browsers local cache memory and display. This trick will work for all the devices which are having the chrome browser.
