I came across this a while back and found it to be really great.
The way this bookmarklet thing is designed and functions, you have to try it to understand the experience.
Installing it and using it is also pretty simple.

Adverts are everywhere, whether you are checking your mails, watching a video on YouTube, checking some random site, doing a Google search, anything related to web surfing and they are there. Some disturb you when you are checking the website, some just hover around and not even let you access the content, and some are downright vulgar and lewd, NO MORE.
The solution, AdBlock. It's an add-on/extension for your web browser that blocks those pesky adverts all over the web.
Installing it is very simple, if you are using Chrome, click here , and add it to chrome.
If you are using Firefox, click here to get AdBlock Plus, and add to Firefox.
Hope that you find it useful, share it with others also.
Many times there comes a time when you want to transfer some data to or from your Android device (Phone/Tablet) but you can't get or don't want to plug the data cables.
Well now you don't have, in comes Airdroid.
All you need is a WiFi connection, a PC, and an Android device.
Download the App from Google Play Store, follow the instructions, drop the data cables to collect dust. It works on Windows, Mac, and Linux.

It's great when you learn new stuff, even better if you find it useful :D.
So I was checking videos on YouTube and found a rather interesting video about DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) uploaded by Geekyranjit (Ranjit Kumar).
I said yeah, let's try and get it working. I already had xbmc installed on my System (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS), went ahead and looked for Apps for my Lumia 520 and Nexus 7 (2012), found 'Nokia Play to' and 'BubbleUPnP UPnP/DLNA' for the respective platforms, and voila, Awesome Experience, Masha'Allah!
Made a quick video so that others can also come to know and use it. Hope you all like it and do share it with others if you found it useful.
P.S: I used xbmc on Ubuntu (Linux) but it works on multiple ecosystems so you should be able to use it with ease.
