    Ten minutes for 2 commands...
    - On host, Create a shared folder with name SHARE_NAME (the name you want) to a local path.
    - On guest, enter commands:
    sudo mkdir /media/SHARE_NAME/
    sudo mount -t vboxsf SHARE_NAME /media/SHARE_NAME/

    The only problem is that this shared folder exists under c:Users, which is already shared by VirtualBox, and it doesn't cover how to accomplish this with a directory that resides outside of c:Users, for example, c:tempdata. This is significant, because there are security restrictions limiting people to their home directory.

Facebook Advertising Coupon – What Happened?

It used to be that Facebook had many different promotions in which they gave out free $50 advertising coupons. Facebook Advertising Coupon is only getting from some hosting service that is include in godaddy Hostgator and 1and1, If you do a search for “Free Facebook Coupons” on Google you’ll probably see some results like this: Free coupon when you buy WordPress hosting through GoDaddy Free coupon when you setup a DIY website through specific website builders Free coupon when you “like” Facebook’s Marketing page Unfortunately none of these are still active.

Contextual Design and Development is the Driving Force Behind all Successful Mobile Applications

The time of ordinary custom web application design & development is long gone. Today the focus is on contextual design and development. It is the rise in the popularity of mobile applications that has provided the impetus for giving importance to ‘context’ when it comes to app or web development. Let’s focus our attention on mobile applications and why mobile applications need to be developed keeping the context in mind. Because they are used in diverse locations Let’s face it. We all love mobile apps because they can be used just about anywhere and at any given point of time. Yes, that’s right, they can be used in offices, on a train, in the kitchen, movie theatre and the list just goes on. So, the app needs to be developed in context of the location.
