Capture and Edit any Webpage using Internet Browser Extensions

If you frequently run browsers like Chrome or Mozilla Firefox, the extensions or add-ons available in these browser, enable you to capture the webpages or the specific part of the webpage. Chrome store contains more free browser than Mozilla and also it is easy to navigate for particular and perfect extensions suitable for you. But, it does not emphasis that Mozilla Firefox browser is not suitable for you. It also acquires many different add-ons that can change your browsing experience.
I would like to share my experience on the extensions or add-ons which i found on chrome store and Mozilla Add-ons store to capture any webpage and simply edit according to your need. You can also save your capture webpage in JPG or PNG format.
List of Screen capturing Extensions or Add-ons:
1. Evernote Web Clipper: I think this is the most popular extension available both Firefox Add-ons and Chrome store. It has many feature to help you capture web page content by just clicking on the button available on the top-right corner of the browsers when you install it. Select the text on web pages and then, save the content whether in Evernote or on your desktop. It allows to grab the entire page with a single click and choose the Clip URL option to grab just the link, Clip to your notebooks or shared notebooks where you have permission to modify, clip PDF's you view in Chrome directly into your Evernote account.

2. Awesome Screenshot: It is also a popular and most widely add-on available on both Chrome Store and Firefox Add-ons. It is easy-to-use extension that comes as a button on the top-right corner when installed in the browsers. It includes features such as saving the full article, discover similar site and many more. But, i found a different feature in this extension, when i installed it on Firefox and Chrome browser. The feature to save the 'selected text' on the web page can be selected on Chrome browser and it's not available in Firefox. Although, it provides the tools to add text and shapes on that web page and can be saved on your desktop in JPG format.

3. Clipular: It is the extension available only on Chrome Store. But, the feature i liked is that it allows to crop the web page and thus, save it accordingly. When you install it in chrome browser, the button will emerge in the top-right corner. Now, you have to click on it and will be redirected to sign-up page of clipular so that you can save in JPG format online in clipualr account. It will also provide you small video for the tips to capture webpages, after sign-up.

4. Abduction: It is a Firefox add-on to easily capture web page by just right clicking on the selected text. It is easy-to-use just right click on any web page, click "Save Page As Image..." and then re-size the selection around the piece you want to save. The element that you right clicked on will automatically be selected, you can quickly expand the selection to the entire page by double clicking, to restore, double click again.
The Firefox plugin specified above can also be run on the latest release of Firefox 22.0 but, still other add-ons on Firefox store does not support latest Firefox version and will be blocked to download, if you have installed the latest version of Firefox browser on your Internet.

Buzzer interface with 8051 microcontroller

Buzzer  is a electronic device that converts the electronic signal into buzzing noise, that is applied to it. It can be used as electronic bell or as quiz buzzer in many applications around us. Here, i world like to discuss the interfacing of a small buzzer with 8051 microcontroller and how different projects can be constructed. Buzzer Interfacing: This project shows the interface with AT89S52 microcontroller to a buzzer. When a push button is pressed, the buzzer will get ON and OFF ( number of times set in the code ) and then stops. Circuit Diagram: - The port P1 of the microcontroller is connected to buzzer. This type of connection is possible, if the current requirements of the buzzer is not more than 20mA. The output is in current source mode so that buzzer will turn ON when the output of the port is logic LOW. Switch is connected to port P3 which remains at logic HIGH by pull up resistor.  Code: #include "REG52.h" #define buz P1 sbit SW=P3^0; long i...

Comparison Chart Between 8051, 8052, 8031and 8751

8051 is a popular 8-bit microcontroller and has been used in many applications since Intel introduced it. Many 8051 architecture are produced by Triscend, Intel, Atmel, Philips, Infineon (Siemens), ISSI, and Max Corp. Today, 8051 microcontrollers may not be popular but, the 8051 architecture is still popular and employed in thousands of embedded applications. This 8-bit architecture has been different segments such as 8052, 8051, 8751 and 8031 . 8052 is the super-set of 8051 and 8031 is the memory-less microcontroller hence, it has interfaced with external ROM. Whereas, 8751 chip has only 4Kbytes of on chip UV-EPROM. Everyone knows about the general 40-pin microcontroller i.e. 8051 introduced by Intel in 1980s and consists of serial communication pins, Timer, Interrupts, RAM, ROM. It has 4 ports and each port has 8 pins, total 32 pins and other 8 pins for other purposes. 8052 is the super-set of 8051 that consists of 8K bytes of internal RAM (4K in 8051), 256 by...

Different ways to generate delays in 8051

The delay length in 8051 microcontroller depends on three factors: The crystal frequency the number of clock per machine the C compiler. The original 8051 used 1/12 of the crystal oscillator frequency as one machine cycle. In other words, each machine cycle is equal to 12 clocks period of the crystal frequency connected to X1-X2 pins of 8051. To speed up the 8051, many recent versions of the 8051 have reduced the number of clocks per machine cycle from 12 to four, or even one. The frequency for the timer is always 1/12th the frequency of the crystal attached to the 8051, regardless of the 8051 version. In other words, AT89C51, DS5000, and DS89C4x0 the duration of the time to execute an instruction varies, but they all use 1/12th of the crystal's oscillator frequency for the clock source. 8051 has two different ways to generate time delay using C programming, regardless of 8051 version. The first method is simply using Loop   program function in which Delay() funct...
