This post is a continuation of the previous post ‘Apache Open Source Projects – Part 1 ‘. In this post we will look into other cool projects of ASF (Apache Software Foundation).
James
Apache James is a Enterprise mailing Server which integrates emailing protocols such as SMTP, LMTP (from V3), POP3, IMAP (from V3) and Sieve filtering funtioality. Apache James is 100% pure Java application based on the Java 2 platform and the JavaMail 1.3 API. It works alone without the need for any other server or solution. James Server uses Mailets to process emails. There are Mailets APIs available so that user can write their own mail handling code, such as creating archives, filtering mails, update database.
mod_perl
It embeds Perl interpreter into Apache HTTP server, so that dynamic content produced by Perl can be provided as response to the incoming requests. mod_perl can emulate a CGI (Common Gateway Interface). It provides complete access to the Apache API, allowing developers to write handlers for all phases of Apache Http server. Everything from virtual hosts to authentication settings can be configured via Perl.
Pivot
Apache Pivot is an open-source platform for building RIA (Rich Internet Applications) in Java. It combines the enhanced productivity and usability features of a modern RIA toolkit with the robustness of the Java platform. It provides a comprehensive set of foundation classes that together comprise a framework. These classes form the building blocks upon which more complex and sophisticated applications can be built.

The Apache Software Foundation is not only famous for its Open source Web Server, it has more open source projects. In this post we will look into some of its cool projects.
HTTP Server
Its a widely used and most popular web server; supports differentoperating systems. Since it is an open source software, hosting your web site in this web server will cost you less. This web server supports several server side programing languages which includes PHP, Perl, Python, .Net and Ruby.
Ant
Ant is a tool to build Java applications. Its is similar to the Make, theonly difference between these is Ant uses XML to describe the build process where Make uses make file. Ant supplies a number of built-in tasks allowing to compile, assemble, test and run Java applications.
Directory
This project provides Directory solutions which includes a LDAPv3 compatible Directory Server and a Directory Studio. The Directory Server supports Kerberos 5 and Change Password Protocol. The Directory Studio contains LDAP tools which can be used with any LDAP servers.

Twitter has become the top happening place of social media.Twitter is becoming better and better.Recently twitter has also released the New twitter design and features which sounds good.But Still there are few good features missing.
One important feature which I would consider is to see people whom I follow are following me back.This feature is still missing in Twitter.But friendorfollow fills that gap.Using friendorfollow we can find the friends who are not following us back.
There is one indirect way to check if someone is following us back through New twitter layout.If the Message button is visible in the profile page of your friend than he is following you back or else he is not your mutual friend.
Not Following Me On Twitter
Following Me On Twitter
Follow me on twitter @joypack [would definitely follow you back if your a real person

If there is a place to find the availability of user name and domain name for our name,company or brand at one place that would be really cool and helpful.NameCheck(ud.com) is such a place to find the name availability around the web. ud.com checks for the user name in leading social media sites and domain name availabilities.
Give a try you would like it.

But suppose if we are tried to go for the next set of results by the page navigator at the bottom,there is a option to change the number of search results to be displayed per page in Google search.Here are the simple steps to change the no of results to be displayed :-
- Go to Google.com
- Select search settings at the top right corner of the screen.It will go to the preference page.

I was wondering, it would be great if I am able to login into two of my gmail accounts at the same time from the same browser window. Historically, Google doesn’t allow you to login to multiple google accounts; if you try to login to another user account then Google will prompt you to log off the currently logged in account.
Now its made possible in gmail by the new feature called ‘Multiple Sign-in‘. To enable this feature you need to login into Google account.
Multiple Sign-in Feature
Click the ‘Edit‘ link in the Muliple Sign-in, you will be forwarded to the page where you should click on ‘On‘ radio button and couple of ‘checkboxes’ and click ‘Save‘. Now, your account is enabled with multiple Sign-on feature.
Sign in to another account
To add another account, click on the Accounts menu at top right side of the Browser menu and select ‘Sign in to another account‘.After you login into another gmail account the Accounts menu will show you both the accounts.
To switch between accounts click the accounts menu and click the appropriate Google account.
Switch between accounts
Note:
- As of now this feature is available only for Desktop browsers and not for Mobile browsers.
- You can use this for the following Google products only :Code, Calendar, Gmail, Reader, Sites, Voice.

In Windows XP,if you find the task manager with out title bar,program tabs or menu bar,don’t be panic,the Task Manager is running in Tiny Footprint mode. Its not the virus which made your task manager like this.You may have double-clicked the empty space in the border around the tabs thus Task Manager switches to this mode.
This problem can be handled easily.Simply just double-click on the border of the window showing to bring back the task manager to normal mode.
