Quitter, a Twitter client disguised as Windows Command Prompt

Remember SpreadTweet, the Twitter client that looks like you are using an Microsoft Excel sheet? Isn’t that great to use Twitter at work on the sly? Quitter is another such Twitter client made for working people and particularly those who often use the Windows Command Prompt at work (network admins?).

Well, Quitter looks exactly like the Command Prompt. It’s a single executable file (105KB) that requires no installation and stores its settings in a small XML file. For navigating around the application you use the arrow keys, just like the real Command Prompt, and the program makes use of keys like Enter and Escape as well to execute functions.

With Quitter, you can

Read, post, reply and retweet.
Organize the people you follow into groups and read tweets by group.
Filter (or highlight) tweets from specific users or that contain certain #hashtags.
Use URL shorteners like TinyUrl.com for tweeting URLs.
Easily open tweeted links from other users in your default browser (no copy/paste needed)
Send and receive direct messages
Follow or unfollow other users

Quitter runs on Windows 2000/XP/Vista and requires Microsoft .NET Version 2.0. It’s free and open sourced.

However, there are times when you may want to change the cover photo frequently and periodically to match event dates or some special promotion that you are running or plan to run. So, here is how you can do that.

How to Record CPU and Memory Usage Over Time in Windows?

Whenever the computer is lagging or some application is taking too long to respond, we usually fire up task manager and look under the Performance tab or under Processes to check on processor utilization or the amount of free memory available. The task manager is ideal for real-time analysis of CPU and memory utilization. It even displays a short history of CPU utilization in the form of a graph. You get a small time-window, about 30 seconds or so, depending on how large the viewing area is.
