5 inestimables aplicacións de produtividade gratuítos para a facultade

Hai uns anos eu escribín sobre aplicacións útiles para o ensino medio — pero agora a facultade é aquí, e trae un novo conxunto de esixencias. Desde Cheguei en Harvard, Tiven que facer máis, e os meus programas tiveron que facer máis tamén.

Estes novos programas precisan realizar en todas as plataformas (Windows, Mac, Androide, IOS), sincronizar perfectamente entre eles, e axudar a manter a miña datos organizados. Teñen que ser versátil, robusto, e doado de usar. E eles teñen que ser libre.

With that in mind, here are the five apps that I’ve relied on most at Harvard and that I recommend to anyone in college or anywhere else in life. They’re ranked in order of usefulness.

Learn Computer Science with Khan Academy

The young man had finished his arduous training period of ten years. The grizzled old man next to him, his tutor, had devoted himself to teaching his pupil the arcane art, an art known only to a select few. Ten years of intense physical labor, deep within the mysterious dungeons and high atop the silver mountains, had finally prepared the battle-scarred young man. He was prepared to unleash his mastery of the dangerous art few knew even existed.

Error 404, elephant not found

tl;drhathix.com had some downtime but my super-helpful host WebHostingHub cleared it up immediately. Also, I apologize for the fanboyishnessit’s just that WHH is that awesome.

I was recently working with some so-called cutting-edge web programming techniques (parsing JSON using PHP from client requests using JavaScript and jQuerytold you it was gory) and realized I needed a new version of some software on the server that hathix lives on.

Chrome OS: all web, all the time

As you might have noticed, the guys at Google have released (ben, not released, they’ve just publicly shown it for the first time; Chromebooks are coming out on June 15) Chromebooks, which are netbooks that run the Chrome OS.

More about the actual computers later; the interesting part about the computer is its operating system. Chrome OS is a completely web-based operating system; it’s nothing but Chrome, Google’s web browser. Está certo, the only application on the computer is Chrome.

Esqueza flash drive con Dropbox

I’m sure this happens to a lot of people: you have an important file on your flash drive and you need to hand it in, print it out, or take it somewhere else. Only problem? You lose your flash drive. It’s happened to me far too many times.

So that’s why I decided to eschew flash drives and emailing stuff to myself and use the power of the internet.

I found Dropbox, which lets me access my files from anywhere as long as I have an internet connection. I don’t even need a flash drive any more; I can just store everything I need on my Dropbox account.
