Le transfert des fichiers peut se faire via les différents services de partage de fichiers qui existent aujourd'hui. Sauf que ces outils sont parfois exigeant au niveau de la taille du fichier à partager. Ainsi la plupart des services d'email ne supportent pas des fichiers de grande taille à part Gmail qui fait recours à son service de stockage google Drive pour permettre à ses utilisateurs d'envoyer des fichiers volumineux. Mais cela n'empeche qu'il existe des services indépendants qui nous offrent cette possibilité et c'est là qu'intervient transferbigfiles.

SkyFonts will install Desktop versions of Google Fonts on to your Windows 8 PC. Please note that the download and installation of SkyFonts require .NET Framework 4 installed. If you do not have it installed, you will be prompted to install the set up first.

You will also need to create a free account with fonts.com for downloading and syncing new fonts from the app. If you don’t want to do so but still use SkyFonts, you can download fonts directly through the Google Code project.

Late last year, we covered a little tip to show you how you can run multiple instances of any app on a Mac. It requires you to run a script and is pretty simple even for someone who has never used the AppleScript Editor. Though there is one caveat with that method – it doesn’t work for all apps, as we noted in the aforementioned post. Skype was one such app that we identified would not run multiple instances with the script. The reason has something to do with Skype itself, rather than the script. If you were disappointed by this and have the need to run multiple instances of Skype, Multi Skype Launcheris a free Mac app that will do the trick. It’s currently in beta and requires OS X Lion or higher. The app is basically a launcher for Skype, but allows you to launch a new instance of the popular app each time you click it, be it a hundred times if you need to.
