MergePDF is a quick and hassle-free online tool for combining your documents in case you don’t have Adobe Acrobat or other PDF manipulation tools. Users who are in need of a quick PDF merge this tool is a good option though it has some small limitations. You can only work with ten files that are 5MB or less for each merge you perform. After finishing the merge you download the document, the original files will be deleted. This process isn’t as fast if combined them on a local computer with professional software but fine nothing the less.
If you don’t mind these smalls limitations, its a pretty decent solution for everyday use.

When you download a movie that is packed in rar archive, it would be really cool if you could play it without unpacking the rar archive. Only a few specialized video player (not many) can actually do that.
Rar File Source is a Direct Show Filter that adds an system wide support to play movies directly from rar archive can be played. To save space and time it is better not to compress the files.
If the rar archive contains more than one video file then the Direct Show Filter will add a menu so that the video of choice can be played. The other rar archive parts will go into the directory and can be accessed through the tool.
Make sure you have Microsoft Visual C++2008 Reditributable Package before running this application.

When it comes to online file storage and sharing most of us usually speak about Rapidshare, Megashare etc. But things are changing there are loads of new and emerging online file-hosting company that allows almost the same features as the top dogs, sometimes even better.
Using Rapidshare, Megaupload as free user are pain in the ass. So I guess we seriously need to consider alternatives and give these noobs a chance. Here are some of the best online servers that offers Free Unlimited File Hosting.
