So I write this simple, yet extremely useful Chrome extension.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s called &#8220;Lyrics for YouTube™&#8221; and you can <a target="_blank" href="https://chrome.google.com/extensions/developer/detail/kggldhblikkmmnbkeococbeoaacgelkf">download</a> it at the Google Chrome extensions gallery:<br />

<a href='http://orenyomtov.com/lyrics-for-youtube-google-chrome-extension.html/lfyw1' title='lfyw1'><img width="150" height="150" src="http://orenyomtov.com/downloads/lfyw1-150x150.jpg" class="attachment-thumbnail" alt="lfyw1" title="lfyw1" /></a>
<a href='http://orenyomtov.com/lyrics-for-youtube-google-chrome-extension.html/lfyw2' title='lfyw2'><img width="150" height="150" src="http://orenyomtov.com/downloads/lfyw2-150x150.jpg" class="attachment-thumbnail" alt="lfyw2" title="lfyw2" /></a>

<p>With one click of a button, the lyrics will appear right next to the music video, at a very natural fashion. This way, you have the playing music video and the song&#8217;s lyrics, in a beautiful side by side comfortable display.</p>
<p>Usage instructions &#8211; Click the extension&#8217;s icon and the song&#8217;s lyrics will magically appear right next to the video.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Background</h3>
<p>Have you heard about Google&#8217;s latest service &#8211; <a target="_blank" href="http://www.google.com/support/cloudprint/">Google Cloud Print</a>?</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a cool service which allows you to print stuff from your home printer using any other computer in the world or even (and especially) mobile devices.</p>
<p>The service is still in beta, so right now you can only print through mobile devices with <a target="_blank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML5">HTML5</a> compliant browsers which can access Google&#8217;s Gmail and Docs mobile version.<br />
They claim that their next step is embedding this functionality in <a target="_blank" href="http://www.google.com/chromeos/">Chrome OS</a> notebooks.</p>
<p>It kind of looks like they skipped over Google Chrome&#8217;s version.<br />
That&#8217;s why I developed an extension for Google Chrome through which you may print using the Google Cloud Print service to any of your connected printers.</p>
<p>I encountered quite a few technical challenges while developing this extension. But I&#8217;ve overcome all of then and I&#8217;m proud to present the final outcome.<br />
Everyone is welcome to <a href="http://orenyomtov.com/how-to-view-a-google-chrome-extensions-full-source-code.html">download and study the extension&#8217;s source code</a>.</p>
<h3>Download</h3>
<p>You may <a target="_blank" href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ffaifmgpcdjedlffbhenaloimajbdkfg">download the extension</a> here: (A 5 star rating will be greatly appreciated :)<br />
<a target="_blank" href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ffaifmgpcdjedlffbhenaloimajbdkfg">https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ffaifmgpcdjedlffbhenaloimajbdkfg</a></p>
<h3>What does the extension do?</h3>
<p>The extension gives you the ability to print any doc/pdf/txt file, Gmail attachment, email or Google Docs document using Google Cloud Print™.</p>
<h3>Screenshots</h3>
<p>Here are some screenshots of the extension in action:</p>

You actually are on orenyomtov<strong>.com</strong> as opposed to this morning, when this website lived under the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.info">.info</a> <abbr title="Top Level Domain">TLD</abbr>.</p>
<p>It has been quite a long time since I made the decision to move to the new domain. But there were two drawbacks which delayed the domain transfer. The first one is lack of time, and the second one is&#8230; Well, my laziness.</p>
<p>Anyways, I thought I would share some of the steps I took in order to move the website to the new domain. I was lucky enough that I didn’t have to change hosts. Doing that may have required some additional steps.</p>
<ol>
<li>I <a target="_blank" href="http://www.godaddy.com/default.aspx">bought</a> the new domain and linked it to my hosting.</li>
<li>I downloaded the <a target="_blank" href="http://wordpress.org/download/">latest WordPress installation</a> and uploaded it into the new domain by <abbr title="File Transfer Protocol">FTP</abbr> (<a href="http://orenyomtov.com/filezilla-vs-flashfxp.html">Looking for an FTP client?</a>).</li>
<li>I copied the <code>wp-content</code> folder. And in my case, the <a href="http://orenyomtov.com/downloads/">&#8220;downloads&#8221; folder</a> which is the folder I chose to store the uploads in (Default is <code>wp-content/uploads</code>).</li>
<li>I also copied the <code>wp-config.php</code> file and the <code>.htaccess</code> file.</li>
<li>I used the <a target="_blank" href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search-and-replace/">Search and Replace WordPress plugin</a> to replace &#8220;orenyomtov.info&#8221; with &#8220;orenyomtov.com&#8221; in the database.</li>
<li>I notified Google of the domain change in <a target="_blank" href="http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/">Google Webmaster Tools</a>.</li>
<li>I exported a new sitemap using the <a target="_blank" href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/google-sitemap-generator/">Google XML Sitemap Generator plugin</a> and submitted it to Google Webmaster Tools.</li>
<li>I opened a new <a target="_blank" href="http://www.google.com/analytics/">Google Analytics</a> account and deployed the new tracking code in the theme I copied in step 3.</li>
<li>I edited the old .htaccess file to contain only:<br />
<code>RewriteEngine on<br />
RewriteRule (.*) http://orenyomtov.com/$1 [R=301,L]</code></li>
<li>I updated my <a target="_blank" href="http://feedburner.google.com/">FeedBurner</a> account and all other similar services.</li>
<li>I updated my website to the new URL in all of my favorite social platforms (<a target="_blank" href="http://twitter.com/orenyomtov">@orenyomtov</a>) and forums.</li>
<li><a target="_blank" href="http://twitter.com/orenyomtov/status/8072391263">Twit twit</a>.</li>
<li>And then I began writing this post.</li>
</ol>
<p>The move didn&#8217;t take as long as I expected it to take. Even though it does seem a little complicated after writing it all down.</p>
<p>I hope that your move will be as smooth as mine. Good luck, Oren.</p>

They both took place in Israel.</p>
<h3>The Big Geek II</h3>
<p><a href="http://orenyomtov.com/downloads/BigGeeklogo.png"><img src="http://orenyomtov.com/downloads/BigGeeklogo.png" alt="BigGeek 2 Logo" title="BigGeek 2 Logo" width="500" height="229" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-348" /></a></p>
<h4>Startupseeds</h4>
<p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.startupseeds.com/"><img src="http://orenyomtov.com/downloads/startupseeds.jpg" alt="StartupSeeds" title="StartupSeeds" width="207" height="117" class="alignright size-full wp-image-347" /></a><br />
This event was organized by <a target="_blank" href="http://www.startupseeds.com/">StartupSeeds</a>, a non-profit organisation encouraging teen Israeli entrepreneurs to make their first steps in the entrepreneurship world. Whether it&#8217;s by giving them <a target="_blank" href="http://www.startupseeds.com/forums">a place to talk about technology</a>, or by conducting monthly meetings with the most interesting lectures (for free!). StartupSeeds even assists young innovative kids with starting their own startups by providing them financial help and the <a target="_blank" href="http://www.startupseeds.com/Page.aspx?page=mentors">best mentors</a> available. The online forum and meetings created a large and friendly community for the Israeli teenager who breaths technology and internet.</p>
<h4>What&#8217;s the event about?</h4>
<p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.startupseeds.com/BigGeek/Team.aspx">Sixteen kids</a> (Ages 14-18), divided into four &#8220;teams&#8221;, worked 24 hours non-stop on their unique idea for a startup. Each team raised a fully working service within those 24 hours (!). While the projects are not breath-taking nor unbelievable, they are still awesome considering the time spent working on them. Actually, they&#8217;re awesome not matter what.</p>
<p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.fixedinch.com/"><img src="http://orenyomtov.com/downloads/fixedinch.jpg" alt="FixedInch" title="FixedInch" width="250" height="83" class="alignright size-full wp-image-362" /></a><br />
The project that <a target="_blank" href="http://www.fixedinch.com/about-us/">my team</a> and I developed is <a target="_blank" href="http://www.fixedinch.com/">FixedInch</a>. It&#8217;s a free online service for displaying objects in their real size over any screen in the world. We have discussed the possibility to continue working on it, and we most likely will, in the near future.</p>
<p>What else can I say? It was an awesome experience that I will never forget. It was 24 hours of fun and <a target="_blank" href="http://www.startupseeds.com/forums/tech/t65663-biggeek_%D7%90%D7%A9%D7%9B%D7%95%D7%9C_%D7%94%D7%91%D7%93%D7%99%D7%97%D7%95%D7%AA">jokes</a>, some of could not be told anywhere else like (via <a target="_blank" href="http://www.twitter.com/taldromi">@TalDromi</a>):</p>

<h3>Startup Weekend Israel 2009</h3>

<p>This is a <a target="_blank" href="http://startupweekend.org/">world-wide</a> known event, which started in 2007. Since then it took place in over 50 cities and growing (!). This is kind of a grown-up version of the Big Geek.</p>
<p>During the first day, 140 Israeli entrepreneurs pitched 50 unique ideas which turned into thirteen motivated teams. Each team consisted of about 4-8 people who designed and developed their idea for three days. The second day was all about work and food (lots of it!). On the third day of the event, the teams finished their work and <a target="_blank" href="http://www.newsgeek.co.il/startup-weekend-israel-updates/">presented</a> their project.</p>
<p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.frayermeter.com/"><img src="http://orenyomtov.com/downloads/frayer-meter.jpg" alt="Frayer Meter" title="Frayer Meter" width="250" height="132" class="alignright size-full wp-image-363" /></a><br />
<a target="_blank" href="http://www.frayermeter.com/about/">My team</a> and I worked on <a target="_blank" href="http://www.frayermeter.com/">Frayer Meter</a> &#8211; an online free service that suggests the most economical cellular plan according to one&#8217;s needs. While it&#8217;s not fully functional, we plan to continue working on it as we believe in it&#8217;s potential.</p>
