Skype Video Message (Max Limit: 3 Minutes)

Hi friends,

Skype added Video message. This new feature let you record your video for maximum of 3 minutes and send to your Skype contact.

Which means, when the recipient is offline, you can send a video message to him/her. When recipient comes to online, they can view your video by clicking on a link.

I have just tried it and its simply superb.

 

Recording your video message:

1. Select contact which you want to send video message.
2. Desktop App: Click on “Video Message”
3. Tablet:  Click on “+” icon to get “Video Message” option. Click on “Video Message”
4. You will get a message like “Looking Good!! Hit record when you are ready”
5. Click on record button
6. Click record button again to stop your video message
7. You can discard message by clicking on “X”(CANCEL) button
8. You can playback your video by hitting “Play” button
9. If you are satisfied with your video message and clarity then hit the “Message” icon to send the video message

 

View your video message sent by your contacts:

1. My friend recorded his video and sent to my Skype (though I am online), I got a link in my Skype chat like
2. “You've received a video message. View it at: some random link and some 4 digit pin”
3. Click on the link and it will ask you enter the PIN
4. Enter the pin provided along with the Skype video chat link
5. Now you can view the video which has been recorded and sent by your Skype contact

Hope, you will enjoy this cool feature.

Open command window shortcut with the current/present working directory/folder

In my previous post, I had explained about opening command prompt and auto-executing a command.
I was thinking it would be better, if we have a shortcut to open a command prompt in the present/current working directory/folder.

I found two options to do that.
GUI (Windows 7 and above):

1. Hold “Shift” keyboard key and “Right Click” your mouse button
2. You will find an option “Open Command Window Here”, click on it
3. It will open a command window and path would be your current directory

Custom Shortcut:

1. Right Click your mouse
2. Choose “New”
3. Select “Shortcut”
4. Enter type the location of the item as “cmd” and click on “Next” button
5. Enter type a name for this shortcut as your own custom name e.g. CurDirCmdWindow and click on “FInish” button
6. It will create a shortcut with your own specified name
7. If you run/double click the shortcut, it will open a command window with the path “C:\Windows\System32” i.e. the default command window directory
8. Now, we have to change the default opening directory to the drive where this shortcut located
9. I hope you are familiar with %CD% environment variable in windows, which stores the current working directory path. We are going to use this now.
10. Select the shortcut and “Right Click” with mouse
11. Select “Properties”
12. Now shortcut properties windows gets opened
13. In “Shortcut” tab, navigate to “Start in:” textbox
14. Replace the existing “C:\Windows\system32” with %CD%
15. Note: Don’t change the target textbox content
16. Click on “Apply” and then on “OK” buttons
17. If you run/double click the shortcut, it will open a command window with your current directory as path.
