Remote Desktop Login : A well known concept in the web scenario. Infact most of the tech world depends on this. Remote Desktop simply means that you can control the other fellows system from your desktop (with his permission!).

Converting videos in Ubuntu using FFMPEG | The ultimate free video converter
If you are a multimedia junkie and felt it your karma to convert tons of videos and music to popular formats, then FFMPEG is the right tool for you. FFmpeg is a free video converter and so much more. It can be found in the default Ubuntu repository and also comes pre-installed in most other distro's. It's an open source project that contains an infinite number of libraries, the most noticeable among them is the libavcodec (for encoding and decoding of the audio and video data ) and libavformat( mux demux library).

Ultimate Geek Stuff | Centerim | Command line chat client | Yahoo Messenger and Gtalk
The command line plays an important part in the everyday life of a Linux Geek. Hardcore Linux Geeks prefer to have a command line equivalent for all the famous GUI applications. At present the most preferred way to communicate online is using a “CHAT” app which usually has a GUI frontend. No wonder Google Talk and Yahoo Messenger are so successful. Still wouldn't it be cool if you could chat via the command line? What could be more geekier than that?

Five useful plugins for gedit.
Text editors are very important both for developers as well as for the average user. In Ubuntu there are many text editors for text editing such as Emacs,Vim,Nano etc but the simplest one of all is “Gedit”. Gedit is the default text editor for the gnome environment and comes pre-intsalled in Ubuntu. You can open it from Applications → Accessories → gedit text editor. Besides Linux this editor is also available for the Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X platforms and is released under the GNU GPL license. Language behind this text editor is C,Python. When you first open this editor, you will compare it with the windows “Notepad” because of its similar GUI but believe me guys it much more than notepad. -

Make Your Work Easy Using Terminator
The Terminal is an essential part of all *ix systems and most Linux geek's like to spend their time on the command line terminals. Problems arise when we are using more than one terminal for our work and we have to switch between them regularly. We have an utility on most of the Linux distro's named as “Terminator” that is able to open multiple terminals within a single window. So you don't need to switch between different terminals.
