Rename many pictures at once -Windows XP tip

If you import digital photos, you're going to love this tip.

1. Open the folder where you've saved your pictures. Select your first
batch of pictures to rename.
2. Right-click the first picture selected and then click Rename.
3. Rename the first picture to whatever you like (for example, Boston
Vacation), then click any empty space within the window to deselect
the pictures.

Your pictures automatically rename themselves ("Boston Vacation (1),"
"Boston Vacation (2)," etc.). This tip also works to rename any
collection of files.

Featured tip is courtesy of the book Windows XP Killer Tips by Kleber
Stephenson.

Graylog - an easy solution for log management

Recently, I was researching for opensource log management tools. I had only two requirements. Log Search and Log analytics. A lot of posts in the internet suggested me to use an ELK stack. But, I wanted to do something different. I found graylog as an alternative to ELK. One can setup and run it in minutes. It uses mongodb, elastic search and graylog server. Here is the login page: grylog provides different options to stream logs into graylog server. I used the simple UDP listener and forwarded logs from multiple devices into this listener. Next step is to create dashboards using the search. Here is the search page: Once search is done, you can add the widgets to a dashboard. The dashboard will help you to get the summary of your devices at one shot. It is also possible to generate alerts on different conditions. More here: https://www.graylog.org/
