If you find some difficulties with file sharing, Dropbox is one of the best tools you can use. If you haven't tried yet, visit Drop box web site. click here
Good news : Drop box can be used under Linux platform.
Bad news : It only supports for a few distros. You need to compile the source code for the other distros. linux version
Here are the listed distros.
I downloaded the Debian version and installed using the normal dpkg command.
dpkg -i nautilus-dropbox_0.7.0_i386.deb
This is just an installer, not the actual dropbox daemon. To install dropbox daemon you need to use following command.
dropbox start -i
That's it. Once it finishes the installation, it will load a wizard to login, basic settings and file selection. enjoy !!!

Midnight Commander
What is your file manager ? It can be Nautilus, Thunar or Dolphin. All these file managers are quite popular in most of the Linux distributions. If you are using the core installation of any Linux distribution (install the OS without a Desktop Manager) for a server or any kind of secure system, you might have problems with managing files using the terminal. Midnight Commander is a good tool for terminal base file manager. It doesn't require a X-window system.

Ajax to PHP
If you are planing to develop a real time web application or a web based tool, you may use javascripts or action scripts. In javascripts you can only develop only client side applications. If you want to develop a server side application, like a registration form or login page, then you need to use server side scripting language to do that. Most popular server side scripting languages are PHP,ASP.NET and JSP.The main disadvantage of the server side scripting languages is you need to submit the entire web page to the server.
Is there any solution ?
Yes, simply you can use jQuery.
How to use jQuery ? where can I find that ?
You can download jQuery (it's not a program, it's a javascript .js file) from their official web site. click here
This is a simple usage of jQuery.
This is the ajax code which calls the php function. You can call this in button click event or any other event.
1. The java script function should be call with a string parameter.
2. You should include the path of the jquery.js inside <script> tags.
3. make a variable which include the path of .php file. (line 5)
4. In line number 6-8 is the function of jquery.js which makes a html post to the php script.
5. You may see a few parameters in that function.
url - which explained before
name - you can directly call $_POST['name'] in php. It will gives the value of param
param - the parameter should pass to this function when it calls.
mname - a variable which takes the returning value in php script.
6. line 7, Div1 is the id of a div tag and by calling html().show() function, it's inner html should assign with mname value.
This is the php code, which gets the input from the html page and return the string to the html page. (strrev() is the function which reverse a string).

Find them all (nmap usage)
Nmap is a useful port scanner for networking stuff. You can download Nmap from their official site. click here
For linux users, you can directly use your mirror sites to download.
ex: In debian type
# apt-get install nmap
Wanna do something crazy ?
check your current public IP. click here
and type this in your terminal. ( If you are using Windows cmd, type in cmd )
you have to change 192.168.1.0 to your subnetwork address (you can get it from your public IP) and give the range as 255.
If there is no error, the scan should start.
It will show all the public IPs within the range which are up.
PS: This is Nmap Ping Scan - go no further than determining if host is online
For linux users, you can directly use your mirror sites to download.
ex: In debian type

Using Google Map API.
Google code is the Google's official developer site. Featuring APIs, developer tools and technical resources. google code. If you visit APIs & Tools you will see a lot of APIs which can be useful for web development, in other words for web applications. From this post I'm going to show how to use a well known google API called Google Map API. There are lot of categories under Map API Family.
1. Click on Map API.
2. Then click on Static Maps API
3. Now you will see a page which contains all the information to use this API.
4. If you feel it is too hard, just use this link.
5. You can give different values to center, zoom, size. (you can give the city name as center value.)
ex:
http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?center=Tokyo&zoom=12&size=300x300&maptype=roadmap&sensor=false
6. You can also change map type by changing maptype value to roadmap, satellite, terrain and hybrid
. 7. For further changes, always go through the Map API info page which I have mentioned above.
Ok, this is a simple registration form which I have created by using php and javascript. I have added Google Map API link to generate maps. Check this out.
http://shankcode.appspot.com/samplereg.php
PS: There can be many bugs in that registration form.
