Installation And Upgrade
SongBook Chordpro for iOS runs on all iPhones, iPads and iPod touch devices with iOS 8 or later. It is optimized for iOS 10 and the new iPad Pro.
When you upgrade to a new version, all songs and settings will be preserved. You'll find the complete version history at the bottom of this document.
See demo on YouTube. Tutoriel français by Alain Lachapelle. Function map by Peter Reath. Czech blog by Karel Jačko.
Where To Find Songs For SongBook
SongBook uses the chordpro format, a plain text file format where chords are written in square brackets within the lyrics. It can also work with tab files. Unfortunately, we cannot provide songs on this site due to copyright restrictions. However, the Internet has huge archives of songs in chordpro or tab format: simply type the song name and chords or tabs into your favorite search engine. Or use the built-in Internet search.
You can also easily create your own chordpro songs. Write the lyrics as usual and insert the chord names in square brackets at the appropriate positions as in the following example:
[Em]Alas, my [G]love, you [D]do me [Bm]wrong,
SongBook will render this as:
Em | G | D | Bm |
Alas, my | love, you | do me | wrong, |
A detailed explanation of the chordpro format as supported by SongBook is available here.
Note: Our desktop applications SongBook Windows and SongBook Mac make it easier to edit or convert chordpro and tab songs on a bigger screen.
How To Get Songs Into SongBook
The SongBook documents directory is shared with iTunes. Just select your iPhone/iPad/iPod touch device in iTunes, then click on the Apps tab, and scroll down to see the list of applications with shared documents (see also here). Select SongBook and drag/drop songs to/from Explorer/Finder. To copy whole directories (categories) to SongBook, zip/compress them first, then copy the compressed zip archive into the SongBook shared folder in iTunes.
The following file extensions are understood by SongBook
*.pro, *.chordpro, *.chopro, *.txt (native chordpro files)
*.tab, *.crd (tab files, chords on separate lines)
*.lst (playlist files)
*.pdf (PDF files
*.chords.txt (user defined chords)
SongBook can also open files with supported extensions, from e.g. mail attachments, Dropbox or other file sharing apps.
Note: SongBook does not work with DOC files, because these cannot be easily reformatted, transposed, searched etc. You need to save your songs in plain text format with one of the supported file extensions to use them with SongBook.
Dropbox SyncIf you have a Dropbox account, you can easily synchronize your song collections with SongBook. Simply enter your Dropbox account data in Settings, and copy your song files to the /SongBook directory and its subdirectories in your dropbox. Synchronization takes place either manually with the refresh button or automatically whenever you open the categories list (the initial screen on the Songs tab as shown below). If your files do not show up in SongBook, check whether they have one of the supported file extensions (see above).
Note: Synchronization is two-way and (except for the first sync) includes all deletions and modifications since the last sync. It will also sync playlists and custom chords. You can sync multiple iOS (and Android) devices with one Dropbox account. For technical reasons, subdirectories of the SongBook directory (categories) can only be renamed/removed on the device. To overwrite all songs on the device, disconnect SongBook from Dropbox in Settings, then delete all songs/categories, then connect the app with Dropbox again.
To synchronize SongBook Windows or SongBook Mac with SongBook iOS, just install Dropbox on the PC or Mac, and select the Dropbox/SongBook folder on the PC/Mac as your song folder (with the "..." button next to the category dropdown). Then connect and sync SongBook iOS with Dropbox as described above. See this video for details.
You can share folders in Dropbox with other users (see here). So you can either share the whole SongBook folder, or only a sub folder (category) with others, and they can use it either as their SongBook folder, or as a sub folder (category).
Song List
Songs are structured in categories. Categories are similar to folders on your computer. You can group songs in categories to help you both organize and search through your song titles. But, just like folders on your computer, deleting a category will delete all songs in it. Songs can also be organized in playlists and filtered by tags.
Use Edit on the Categories list to add, rename or remove a whole category. Removing a category will also remove all songs in that category. From the Edit Categories view, you can add (move) multiple songs to a category by tapping on the + button. Unchecking a song will move it back to - Unfiled -. To put a single song in a different category, open the song, then select Category from the action menu in the lower right.
The song list displays title/subtitle and key of all songs in the selected category. SongBook determines the key by looking at the first chord in the song, or the value of the {key: ...} directive. You can search for a song by title, subtitle, or full text.
To create new songs, select a category, then tap on the + button on the lower toolbar.
Use the sort toolbar button to sort the song list by title, subtitle, key, or last modification date.
Use Edit on the song list (or swipe-to-delete) to delete individual songs.
The globe search button in the song list toolbar will open a simple Internet search for songs in chordpro format. Songs imported via the search will be added to the currently selected category.
The button on the lower right will give you quick access to the tab to switch to playlists, chords or settings.
Song View
The song view displays the current song with lyrics and chords. Tap on a chord to look up the chord definitions. Use the chord toolbar button to toggle display of the currently used chords at the bottom (or to the right) of the song. The list will start with the first chord of the currently visible part of the song.
Chord, lyrics, comments and tab font and text/background color can be changed by selecting Settings from the action button in the lower right.
Tap with two fingers on the lower/upper third of the song to scroll down/up one page. You can also use AirTurn or similar bluetooth pedals to scroll up/down and switch to the next/previous song in the current category or playlist.
Swipe right/left or tap with two fingers in the center part of the song on the left/right side to move to the previous/next song in the currently selected category/playlist.
The toolbar at the bottom gives you access to several functions which in turn will show their own toolbars or menus. On the iPhone in portrait mode some functions are only accessible via the menu button in the lower right due to limited space. Tap anywhere on the screen to go back to the standard toolbar.
The play button will start auto-scrolling the song. You can adjust the tempo with the slider. If you have found a suitable scrolling speed, tap Save to save the current scroll tempo in the song (as a {tempo-iphone/ipad: } directive). To temporarily pause the current scrolling, tap with two fingers anywhere on the screen. Repeating this multiple times will add to the delay. A three-finger tap will start/stop auto-scrolling without the need to open the auto-scroll toolbar. Note: this will only work if you have not assigned this gesture to some other function in the global iOS settings.
You can optionally insert {pause: x} directives somewhere in a song, where x denotes a pause in seconds (e.g. {pause: 20} to pause for 20 seconds). When the line with this pause statement reaches the top of the screen, auto-scrolling will pause for this amount of time. You can also put that directive at the top of the song to delay the auto-scroll start.
SongBook features a built-in metronome. You can configure whether you want an audible tick or a flash of the upper toolbar (or upper part of the screen) or both in Settings. Use the Save button to save the current metronome speed (in ticks/beats per minute, as {metronome: } directive) in the song. This is a separate setting from the song auto-scroll speed because the latter depends on screen size and orientation. Use the Play button at the right to switch to auto-scroll (and vice versa).
You can change the font sizes for the current song with the familiar "pinch" gesture, or with the font size icon on the lower toolbar. The pinch gesture changes the zoom level only for the currently displayed song. The zoom buttons change the zoom level permanently for all songs. Use the Save button to save the current zoom level with the song (as a {zoom-iphone/ipad: } directive) so that this particular song will always display in the selected size.
Unlike zooming of pictures, zooming of songs in SongBook will trigger a re-layout of the song, so you will never have to scroll horizontally.
The Auto-Zoom option will zoom the song so that everything fits on one page without scrolling.
Use the chord toolbar button to switch on/off the chord band on the lower/right border (configured in Settings). This chord list shows the easiest variant (or the {define...} variant) for each chord currently visible on the screen. If you don't like the inverted display, switch it off in Settings. If you select the piano instrument in Settings, you will see the notes of the chord (treble). Tap on the chord to see the full chord view with all definitions.
You can transpose the song into a different key by tapping on the b# toolbar button. Tap on the b/# buttons to change the tuning in half-tone steps or choose the key to transpose to directly from the popup. To determine the current key, SongBook will look at the {key: ...} directive or (if not found) use the first chord of the song. You can define the key from the menu at the right.
Use the "All b" and "All #" buttons to convert all sharp chords to their flat equivalent or vice versa. Tap on the Save button to permanently save the changed chords in the song, use the reset button ↺ to reset to the original key. If you just tap outside the transpose toolbar, the current transposition will be active until you switch to another song.
You can use Set Capo to define a fret for a capo. This works just like a transpose down the same number of steps, but will show a Capo: ... indicator at the beginning of the song.
The menu at the right-hand side lets you convert song chords into the Nashville Numbering System which will convert all chord names into number 1,2,3... This only works if a key is set in the song (with Set Key from the menu). If a song is already in Nashville Number format, you can convert it back into regular chords (again based on the defined key). Use the reset button ↺ to undo the conversion.
More Song Functions
The menu button on the right of the main toolbar offers various additional song actions. It lets you switch off display of chords or lyrics, mail the song as an attachment (as chordpro file, formatted PDF or plain text), or change the category or assign the song to a playlist. If you have an AirPrint-capable printer, you can print the current song.
Link with Music
If you want to play along with a music (MP3) file, you can link a SongBook song to an iTunes music file with the menu in the lower right. SongBook will automatically link matching songs based on the song title. Once a SongBook song is linked to a music file, the metronome button is replaced with a notes button to show a mini player toolbar. You can start/pause the song, rewind/fast forward in 10sec intervals, or start the auto-scroll. Unlink a connected music file from the menu.
Alternatively, you can copy an MP3 file into the SongBook song folder (via Dropbox or iTunes), then reference the music file with {musicpath: file.mp3}. This works across devices and platforms. Note: for PDFs, there is an automatic link to a music file with the same name in the same folder, e.g. Song.pdf -> Song.mp3
Play together
You can link up to seven iOS or Mac OS X devices running SongBook together, so they will always show the same song and scroll to the same line. Enable Bluetooth or WiFi on all devices, then select Settings - Play together to start the search for other devices. If a song is not found on one of the connected devices or has a different content it can be copied automatically. When you transpose a song, the transpose step will also be sent to the other devices. The connection is peer-to-peer: every device can control all other devices. When a device switches off or shows the lock screen, the connection will be dropped. SongBook will automatically try to re-connect once it is back in the foreground.
Full Screen and VGA Mode
To make maximum use of screen real-estate, SongBook can display a song in full screen mode where the whole display is used to display the song. To switch to/from full screen mode, just tap anywhere on the song view (not on a chord).
SongBook will automatically switch to multi-column mode if the song is narrow enough and would fit without scrolling on the screen.
When you connect a beamer or external display using Apple's VGA or HDMI adapter to your iOS device, SongBook will show the current song (or chord view) with full resolution on this display. Note that the screen ratio of the external display may differ from your iPhone/iPad, so the song view on the device is resized to match the display, and may consequently show black stripes. When you scroll/zoom on the device, the song on the display will scroll/zoom accordingly. Note: on newer iPad devices with the HDMI adapter, the device screen will be 1:1 mirrored to the external device using AirPlay. With an external display connected, you can change the external display to only show lyrics via the menu. This can be useful if your audience wants to sing the song you're playing.
If you have a Google Chromecast device in your network and select it from the Chromecast button , SongBook will display the current song in auto-zoom mode on the Chromecast TV/beamer.
Note: SongBook will automatically increase the auto power-off (idle) timeout up to 15min while a song is displayed.
Internet Search
SongBook has a simple Internet search for chordpro files built-in. You can use one of the two main search providers, or type a URL of your own. If the displayed page contains a pre-formatted song, the Import button in the lower right will become active and open the song editor. You can then save the song in the song list or cancel the edit and get back to the search view.
Note: By it's very nature, Internet search can be hit-or-miss, results may vary. You are responsible for obeying the respective copyrights of the material found on the Internet.
SongBook supports MIDI on all iOS devices. When MIDI is activated in menu Settings, SongBook will connect to all input and output sources on the MIDI bus.
You can select a song with a MIDI command by inserting a directive {midi-index: <command>} in the song. You can also send certain MIDI commands when opening a song by inserting {midi: <command>,<command>,...} in the song. You can also use a MIDI pedal to scroll up/down in a song, by entering the respective command in Settings.
The general MIDI command syntax is <id><MSB>.<LSB>:<subvalue>@<channel> (see table below). However, in most cases it is easier to just select the MIDI command from the list of last received commands (via menu in song editor, or for up/down pedal in Settings).
Command | Explanation | Example |
N | Note (On/Off) | N60 |
PC | Program Change | PC6 |
CC | Control Change/Bank Select | CC100.10 |
SS | Song Select | SS99 |
START | Start | START |
Tab files
Songs that are not in chordpro format, i.e. don't have a {title: } or {t: } directive are considered tab files. Unlike chordpro files, tab files have separate lines for the chords, like
Em G D Bm
Alas, my love, you do me wrong,
To have fixed chord positions regardless of font preferences, SongBook renders tab files with a fixed font (also in the editor). SongBook will automatically recognize chords within the tab file, render them in chord color, transpose them or let you look up the chord fingering. You can switch off tab support in Settings. The song editor has a menu entry that can convert songs in tab format to chordpro format by inlining chords with lyrics.
PDF documents
SongBook can display PDF documents. It will always show a single page at a time, or two pages in landscape mode. You can scroll to next/previous page with two-finger tap or a pedal, just like with regular songs. You can also reference PDFs in playlists. However, PDFs cannot be zoomed, edited, tagged, transposed etc. If the PDF is from a printout (not scanned), you can optionally zoom to content, which will automatically adjust the zoom factor so the white/transparent border will not show.
To import PDFs, use "Open In" SongBook, or copy them into the SongBook folder with iTunes or Dropbox sync.
Song Editor
You can edit songs or add new songs. Use the pinch to zoom gesture to change the font size for editing a song. The Preview button next to the Save button will show you a preview how the song would currently be rendered without saving it. On the iPad in landscape mode, the preview will only take up half of the screen so you can edit and see your changes in realtime. On iOS 6 and above, the editor will mark the chordpro control statements in different colors (syntax highlighting).
To see more text on the iPhone, use a three-finger tap on the text view to hide the keyboard. SongBook supports the normal iOS undo methods: shake the device (iPhone) or use the Undo button on the .?123 keyboard (iPad).
The {..} menu in the upper right lets you easily enter the most common chordpro control statements. Inserting {...} controls or [] while text is selected will "wrap" the control around the selection.The first letter after the opening square bracket [ will automatically be converted to upper case.
The entry "Keyboard Chord Row in the {..} menu toggles an extra keyboard row with the chords that are currently used in the song. Chords that do not fit on the toolbar can be accessed from the menu button on the right. There you can also open the built-in chord library for lookup of arbitrary chords.
SongBook features a unique tab editor that lets you edit tablature sections (tabs) with a fixed font. You activate it by choosing Edit Tab from the context menu while inside a {sot}...{eot} section, or when inserting a new {sot}{eot} directive with the {..} button. In the tab editor you can toggle between overwrite mode and insert mode via the context menu. In overwrite mode, tapping space will just move to the next position, while tapping delete will move to the previous position. Use the buttons in the toolbar to insert a whole column of "-" or "|", or delete the current cursor column.
To further organize your song collection, you can assign arbitrary tags to a song. On the main song category screen, you can switch from Categories to Tags to filter songs by tags. Select additional tags from tag icon in the upper right of the song list to show only songs that contain all of the selected tags.
When you remove a tag, the song is not deleted. However, if you delete all songs that contain a certain tag, that tag will disappear from the list of tags. Unlike with categories, songs can have several tags assigned. In the song, tags are stored with a {tag: xx} directive.
Playlists (aka sets) are collections of songs for a special purpose, e.g. a concert, or training. Playlists behave just like iTunes and iPod playlists. Removing a song from a playlist does not delete the song from either the device (it remains in its category), nor any other playlist the song might be in. Songs can be in multiple playlists, and in fact, can occur multiple times in a single playlist. You can collapse and expand playlists for easier navigation.
Use the Edit button to add, delete or empty existing playlists. The sort button in the upper left allows you to sort the list of playlists alphabetically or by date.
Use the + button to add songs to a playlist. Alternatively, you can add the currently displayed song to a playlist with the "Add To Playlist" menu from the song view.
To change the order of songs in a playlist, select Edit, then drag the song to the new position in the playlist. You can also shuffle or sort your playlist via the action popup menu.
Use the menu button for various other functions like printing or it or sending a playlist via mail to another SongBook user.
SongBook comes with two automatic playlists that list the most recently created/changed or viewed songs, respectively. You can switch these playlists on/off in edit mode, and also adjust the number of entries.
Playlists can automatically transpose songs to different keys. To store a different key for a song in a playlist, open the song from the playlist (not from the song list), then transpose it as usual, but do not save the transposed song. If a playlist song has a different key then the original, the key will be shown in italics.
Note: Playlists contain only references (via title and subtitle) to the real song. If you remove the song, it is not automatically removed from the playlists but can no longer be viewed. When you change the title or subtitle of a song, all playlists that reference this songs are automatically updated.
Chords and Instruments
SongBook comes with comprehensive, extensible chord libraries for many instruments like guitar, ukulele, mandolin, banjo, and piano. You can view and change the tuning of the selected instrument in Settings.
Chords are sorted by base pitch. Each chord can have several variations. SongBook knows about identical pitches (e.g. C# = Db). Click on the looking glass to search a chord by name or by fingering (enter e.g. 2 2 1 to find Am and more chords with this fingering).
To change the currently used instrument, select Settings - Instrument or tap on the chord list title. This instrument is used for all chord lookups. If you're left-handed, you can switch on left-handed chord view in Settings to see all chord diagrams with reverse string order. Select latin chords if you prefer DO RE MI formatting instead of C D E. There you can also change the standard tuning of the instrument, and the chord fingerings will be adjusted accordingly.
If a song requires a certain instrument, you can define that with {instrument: ...}. When such a song is displayed, chords will be shown for the given instrument. When you leave the song view or switch to the next song, the default instrument will be used again.
In addition, you can define a custom tuning for a song with {tuning: ...}. This also requires an instrument define in the song. E.g. you want to play a song in Guitar Drop D tuning, write
{instrument: Guita}
{tuning: D A D G B E}
User defined chords
You can extend the string chord libraries with your own chords. SongBook comes with a chord editor that lets you define fingerings, base fret and muted strings. The search button on the right will look up the currently defined chord in the chord library. Tap the notes button to play the current chord.
User defined chords will always show up in the first position in the chord view. Note: if you need a special chord only for a certain song, you'd better define the chord in the song with {define: G 1 3 2 0 0 0 3} rather than in the chord library.
The added chords are saved in a file <instrument>.chords.txt (e.g. guitar.chords.txt) in the documents folder and are synchronized with Dropbox (if linked). You can also edit this file with a standard text editor like Notepad or TextEdit. If you want your extra chords appear in the built-in SongBook chord libraries, please send us this file.
Do you have a song that is not rendered correctly? Is an important chord missing in the chord database? Please let us know.
Special thanks to Kenny Song for his invaluable help and constant encouragement.

How To Organize Your Domain Name Portfolio
Think for a moment that you have well over 10,000 domain names. You are on the phone with a client, he's ready to buy now, and asks you the magic question "well, what do you have?" What will your reply be? "Uhm.. well, hold on... let me log into my registrar.." all the while fumbling with your 2-factor auth code that is taking longer than usual to come (like it always does when you're in a rush). Or... Will you be a boss, switch over to your spreadsheet and start naming off domain names? Do you ask them what kind of domain they are seeking? If so? Can you sort your domains by their wants and needs? What if they ask you for a 2 word .com with more than 10,000 searches a month that is aged at least 10 years... what do you do? If you are not organized and ready to answer these questions, you are leaving so much money on the table long term that you would be better off quitting today before that number gives you a heart attack 20 years from now. That's how seriously I take this. Overall, this will help you in more ways than one. That is why I made the video and I hope you take something away from it. Enjoy!
Hey Guys! Ali Zandi here: Zandibot.com. Today I want to jump into organizing your domain portfolio. I think it's super crucial that you have a highly optimized and highly organized domain portfolio so that you can, not only keep track of all of your domain names, you can keep track of their costs, the dates you bought them, their expiration dates, categories, and a whole lot of other statistics that you can recall all of your domains by. The best thing you can do is to organize your portfolio as soon as you can. It can be a really tedious task if you wait too long and you accrue thousands of domain names like some of us have. But, I've spent some time organizing my portfolio, and, it was a real pain but I ended up with something I really, really liked, and it's functional for me and my investing future.So, I'm going to jump right into it. The first thing you're going to need to do is to open up a spreadsheet. Something like Google Sheets, Excel or Numbers (on Mac) will work just fine. Once you have it open, the best thing you can do is start making your headers and titling them. This is basically what you are going to be organizing your portfolio with - is all of these titled columns and headers that you'll have and you can freeze, and you can, you know, scroll up and down, sort alphabetically (from A-Z and Z-A, so on and so forth). Being that I have an Afternic-centric portfolio, I usually download the Afternic blank spreadsheet. That gives me access to a ton of different categories that I can give my domain names - so I can sort by category. It also allows me to set up my spreadsheet in a way where uploading to Afternic, anytime I make a change, is a lot easier and smoother. So if you have an Afternic account, you want to sign in. Once you're signed in, you're going to go down to PORTFOLIO, click ADD DOMAINS. Once it opens, you can see over here: UPLOAD A SPREADSHEET. You're going to want to download the BLANK TEMPLATE. So click this and it should download. Once it's downloaded, you can open it up and you can take a look at all the different sheets that are in this blank template. The most important ones for me are going to be 'My List of Domains' and the 'Category Details'. The 'Category Details' is going to let me come in here and really find a perfect category and sub-category to apply to a domain name, so that I can organize my spreadsheet, or organize by names and sort through 'em via a category. So, I'm going to go over here to 'My List of Domains'. I usually just take all the headers, copy 'em (because I'm going to need all of these when I'm uploading to Afternic). So I take all of these, and I come back here to my spreadsheet. I'm just going to paste them in there. Now I have all the Afternic headers right? So what I want to do is…I'm going to size them, and then, you know, the ones that are not required, like: 'Reserve Price' - I never put a reserve price, so I'm going to bury that one over here. 'Floor Price' - I always use. 'Buy It Now Price' - I always use. Here's your 'Categories'. Leave blank – shut it down. Leave blank – shut it down. I leave 'em there. I don't delete 'em because when I copy and paste, like I highlight all and I ship it over. So as long as that column's there, it doesn't matter if it's hidden. As long as it translates over to the spreadsheet and leaves this blank, verses, you know, that being deleted and being filled with like description because it'll move over. 'Description' – sometimes I used, sometimes I don't, so I'll leave it open. 'Listing Status' – that's required. These are leave blanks. Leave blanks. So I'll shut those down. Alright, so now I have my Afternic headers. But that's not all I want to be able to sort my domain portfolio by. So what I'm going to do, I'm going to take these guys here and I'm going to add – I like to add my columns to the left, my custom columns. I'll 'Add Column' to the left. You can add them to the right, it doesn't matter. So I'm going to insert thirteen (13) to the left here. I'm going to size these all down. Alright, so these are Afternic's , these are my custom ones. I don't like that color. I'm going to change the color. I'm going to change. I'm going to center everything, and I'm going to give the font a white color there, make sure it's bold – it stands out. Alright, perfect! I'm going to add another row above here. I always like adding a row above for like, totals. Let's say, 'Acquisition Cost Totals' where I can do, you know, I can put 'cost' here and then up here I can create a formula, but we'll get into that. So let's say, first column I want to be able to sort by is the date I bought it. So I put, 'BUY DATE'. Right? And then the next column I want to sort it by length. So we'll go 'LENGTH'. Next column. Let's say search volume so I'll just put 'SV'. You know I like to make these columns as small as possible. So, let's see, I'll give them some acronyms. You can name yours whatever you want. I like to give mine acronyms because it makes the columns smaller. And then, you know and then I can sort through them. I can put 'CPC' in here. I can put 'Age'. I can put – let's see, let's see – most importantly, 'Cost'. How much did it cost me? So cost, I want to highlight it. I like highlighting and giving specific ones, you know, specific colors. Cost – Red; red is a cost. It's a negative. I like the color red. You can color yours however you want. So 'Buy Date', 'Length', 'Search Volume', 'CPC', 'Age', 'Cost'. I like to do 'Type' – you can name this whatever you want. We'll get into that. Something like I would put 'One word' – like it's a one-word domain. That's the type of domain it is - it's a one- word domain. We'll get further into that. So 'Type', we'll go 'TLD'. Let's see! 'Buy Date', 'Length', 'Search Volume', 'CPC', 'Age', 'Cost', 'Type', 'TLD'. What else can we organize by? We can put 'Expiration' (EXPIRATION). Something I've been doing lately is I've been registering my domains for ten years at a time, at least the ones I plan to hold long term. And then I could put the expiration in here and consolidate them all. Let's say all of my domains will expire, January 1st 2025, then you know I could put, you know, [types January 1st 2025]. And I could sort by that. I could be like, 'Hey! How many of these have I paid 10 years registration for?" Should I sell it right now? Do I need to, you know, lower my price? I mean, it's already paid for, I might as well hold on to it. So these are some of the things you can keep in mind and sort by. So lets say – we've got these. You know, obviously, you can keep going and going and going with the different, you know, types of sorting. But I think I have the ones I want to start with and I can always add more afterwards. So now, let's just delete these for now. And as I go, I'll think of other things. So let's say – 'Buy Date'. Let's say I bought a domain today. What's the date today? Today is the 7th. So we have four – do we have 4? Where are we at? [types 4/7/2016]. Don't know the length. Don't know da, da, da, da. Okay, so the domain name. What did I buy today? Let's just say I bought domainname, you know, domainname.com. Whatever! And then the 'Expiration', let's say I paid it up to January 1st 2025. 'TLD' – it's a 'com'. I don't like to put periods before the 'com' because when I go to sort it, I want to sort it by the letter, not the period. It's just lest work for me. The 'Type' – it's a two-word. Let's see! It is a two-word domain. Ok. 'Cost' – Let's say I paid- Lord knows it's a lot more valuable than this - but let's just say I paid, for instance, I paid twenty-five grand to pick it up a long time ago. 'Age' – it's ancient. Let's just say it's twenty plus years old, right? It's twenty years old. I don't know the exact age of domainname.com. It's just an example. 'CPC' – let's say it's eight dollars and ninety-two cents. 'Search Volume' – I'm assuming it's dramatic, but we'll put, let's just put five hundred thousand. 'Length' – So what do we got here? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, then. It's a ten-letter domain. Alright, so now I have domainname.com basically organized in my spreadsheet. Right? So it's in my - it's in my portfolio. I have it in here. Now I can go over here and be like, "What do I want to price it? What kind of category do I want to put it under? You know, and what my floor price is? And a description" So let's say 'Minimum Offer' – I won't even talk to you if you don't come with at least a two hundred and fifty thousand dollar minimum offer. (You don't want to put dollar signs or commas in anything to the right over here in the Afternic upload because when you upload it, it even states in their upload instructions – somewhere- it says that you should not put dollar signs. Where is the dollar sign here? There it is: "Do not include the dollar sign symbol." And don't even put commas in there either.) Okay, so two hundred and fifty thousand. Say the 'Floor Price' – so the floor price in Afternic is the minimum amount you're willing to allow the Afternic brokers to negotiate on your behalf without asking you. So put this at a number where you feel comfortable selling the domain without even being bothered should an Afternic broker be involved in making the sale for you. So, let's say, you know, 'Floor Price' – we put a million dollars. 'Buy It Now Price' – we'll just, you know, whatever - five million. 'First level Category' - So now you can go over to the Afternic BLANK TEMPLATE. You can go to 'Category Details'. From here, you know, you can go down, let's say, domainname.com - we'll put business. Right. It's a - it's business domain. Let's say, 'Category' (you know, we're not really going to categorize domainname.com. It's just an example. ) - 'Business.' And then it's a, let's say domainname.com is going to be a, you know, management service for domain names or what not. Ok, so we got the category, we got first level, second level and then listing status. So what is listing status? We're going to come over here: [Reads Afternic's guide: "Three equals for sale through domain resellers"] So we'll just put a listing status of three. It's required, so I'm just going to paste it all the way down to the bottom here, just so that it's always there. Okay! So we have all of these different headers that we can categorize and sort through our portfolio with. Now, 'Description' - you can put it in there if you want do. Description shows up on the Afternic landing pages. Here! Actually, let me just give you an example here. Let's go [types HDPC.com in search browser] So 'Description' - I haven't put a description on this one, but this is where it shows up. So 'Description', it shows up right there right? And then 'Categories', it shows here. 'One and two characters' – oh that's not correct. I have to fix that! 'Listing dates' - so on and so forth. Ok. Back to it! We don't need that anymore. Alright, so that's done, that domain name is in here. That's categorized, that's in there and it's saved. So lets add a few more as a demonstration. One, two, three, four - let's just make ten domains. Let's say this one is health.org, this one is security.net, dollar.com, you know, truth.io, whatever.whatever, and, you know, so on and so forth. Domain.org, Domainnet.com. Okay, so on and so forth. Now, we've got all these different type of domains in our portfolio. So this is a dot-org, this is a dot-net, com, io, whatever, org, com. This is a two-word. This is going to be a one-word. I always list my ngTLDs as two words or three words. I just remove the dot and count the words. That's just how I like to categorize them. It's totally up to you how you do yours. This is one-word, one-word, one-word, so we just copy these- paste, paste. Let's say I pay thirty five thousand for this, five thousand for this, nine thousand, eight hundred, six thousand. Ok. These are all just examples right? Just showing you exactly, you know, how it's going to work when you go and organize your portfolio and you need to recall stuff. It's super important that you have, you know, everything set up to the point where, if you get asked, 'Hey! What else do you have in the, you know, business management vertical that I can take a look at?" Well you can go okay, "Okay. Hang on one second." You categorize these by business and then you know, you can categorize second level by management and you can go okay I've got these domains. Boom! Boom! Boom! Let me send them to you! You know, and as you can imagine, the different every row is, the more stuff you're going to be able to sort. So like, all my prices here, I can say, "Hey! What's my most expensive domain? (Oops! Let me freeze these headers. Another good point - go to View-Freeze - Up to two rows. Since I have two rows here, I want to freeze them.) So, I'll tell you what my most expensive domain. I want to sort it. Hey look! Forty-seven grand -Domainnet.com – I paid forty-seven grand for it. It's not really my domain. But yeah! So you can sort everything. What's my oldest domain? What's my highest CPC? What's my highest search volume? Lowest? What's the longest domain? The shortest domain? When did I buy it? How old is it? When does it expire? You know, the more data that you have that you can sort through for your domains names, the better it is. So now let's say you got all your domains- ten thousand domains sorted right here. All, you know, you have all of your categories. Everything has a different category. You come in here, you know, you got all this stuff categorized and so on and so forth. Whatever! Done. But what about the domain names that are pending? Like, you just bought them, say, you know, at Flippa and it's being pushed to your GoDaddy account. You're just waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting. Whatever it is! You bought it 'Buy It Now' and it's transferring, you know, it doesn't matter. You create a second sheet. Right! So I'm – I'm just going to just highlight everything, take it over to sheet 2, and I'm going to paste it. So now I have all this stuff again. Let's see ba ba ba. And I'm going to delete it. Ah, more columns I thought about. Let's see here. I'm going to add one here and one here. So, I like to have 'Notes' and 'Registrar'. Bingo! Alright! So I'll go, I'll go back here, get all these, highlight them, paste them. Boom! Ok. Get rid of this stuff. Okay so let's say you have domains that you just bought; they're pending transfer. You know, you're not quite ready to take them over to….let's say - [types 'DOMAINS' and then 'PENDING DOMAINS' ] I can name this sheet here. So I have my live domains and I have my pending domains. So let's say I'm waiting for, you know, thisdomain.com to hit my account. I can fill out all this information, you know, get it all prepped and ready. (Actually, I can change the heading color just a little bit here so I know it's PENDING DOMAINS. Let's see! Yeah! Just so that I am reminded before I go and start offering the domain for sale.) Ok, so it's a different color. Now, I can fill out all this information down here. Right! So, let's say, let's just take this, for instance. And let's say this domain is pending. It hasn't hit my account yet. I can't sell it; I'm just sitting around. I have it waiting in here. So, the moment I get the email from, say GoDaddy, and it's like, "Hey! Your domain transfer is complete." I can highlight this row, come back, plop it in here. Boom! My domain is now in my category of domains that I have open and that are available for sale. Again, more stuff I can add here. Let's see! So I can put a 'STATUS' row. Now, for me I like to do different colored statuses, like, if this one is at Afternic. Right! So it's posted for sale. Let's say these are all posted for sale at Afternic. Let me center these. I'm going to give it a different color. Let's say I'll just color it blue. And then let's say these are at, you know, these are at GoDaddy auctions. Right! (Copy and paste these. So let me bold and center this entire row here.) So, these are at GoDaddy auctions. And then let's say, for instance these are 'PENDING NEGOTIATION'. You know, and then you can have stuff like 'IN ESCROW,' so on and so on and so on. You know, different colors help so that way when you sort it, it stands out more. You can see all the domains in that category. It helps me. So you know you can add these, add these, blah, blah, blah, so on and so forth. So now that your entire portfolio is organized. You have all your pending domains waiting to be pushed over to your live domains spreadsheet. And then, okay, so all your domains are uploaded. Now, you want to put them up on Afternic. Super easy! All you got to do is grab all these rows, copy them, head over to 'My list of Domains,' paste them. Right! Go to File-Export-CSV. Right! Hit next. Go to Desktop –(upload)upload CSV. Boom! That's it! Then you hop back over to Afternic, click the 'UPLOAD SPREADSHEET' button, choose FILE. Right! You open this up - the 'UPLOAD CSV' folder. Right! Click 'My List of Domains' - double check it, you got them all. And then you click 'UPLOAD FILE', and all of your domains are uploaded and they're still organized; they're always organized. You never have to worry about them again. So once you get into the, the mode of listing your domains in here and just taking a few minutes (tops) to put one of your domains. Let's say you bought 20 domains that day. At the end of the day, get in here and organize them. I mean, you can have hundreds and hundreds of columns if you want to. It really, really doesn't matter. It's totally up to you. It's a preference. But if you are an Afternic user; if you are this passive sales kind of person, where you have thousands of domains and you just want them all organized all in one place, then get these columns handled. And make sure they're always to the left or always to the right - doesn't matter which side. But as long as you can grab them all at once, head over to your spreadsheet and just paste. You know what I mean? That's that. It's super easy! And that's my little organization tutorial. I hope you guys enjoy it. If you have any questions, any concerns, anything pops up or even have any ideas, just comment below. Let me know what works for you because you never know what you tell me might work better for me than what I'm doing. Or somebody else might pick something up on it. It's always awesome to share things. 'Preciate you guys coming by. Zandibot.com. Bang For Your Buck! Have a good one!

The rapper diva's attempts to stay in the spotlight trigger numerous controversies. The latest news reveal that Nicki Minaj is slammed for mocking religion in her Grammy performance by the Catholic League. Find out more details about this celeb scandal.
The Catholic League decided to take action against the
anti-religious behavior of the rapper diva. We find out from the
latest celebrity gossips that Nicki Minaj is slammed for
mocking the Catholic Church in her Grammy performance in which she
used the theme of a 'live exorcism' to shock the audience and the
media. First Nicki Minaj appeared on the red carpet with a strange
man dressed as The Pope.
According to the diva, who revealed in Ryan Seacrest's KIIS-FM
radio show that the controversial show had in the central role her
alter ego Roman Zolanski, "I had this vision for Roman for him to
be sort of exorcised. People around him tell him he's not good
enough because he's not normal and he's not blending in with the
Average Joe."
The mock-religious show was undoubtedly a complex performance. The
fans could watch a Catholic confession sesh, signs of demonic
possession, a levitation scene and a few dancing monks. Nicki also
added that, "The people around (Roman) him are afraid because
they've never seen anything like him. He wanted to show that not
only is he amazing...But he's never going to change. He's never
going to be exorcised,[...]Even when they throw the holy water on
him, he still rises above."
The Catholic League decided to react to the offensive
performance. President, Bill Donohue claimed that, "Whether Minaj
is possessed is surely an open question, but what is not in doubt
is the irresponsibility of The Recording Academy. Never would they
allow an artist to insult Judaism or Islam[...] It's bad enough
that Catholics have to fight for their rights vis-a-vis a hostile
administration in Washington without also having to fend off
attacks in the entertainment industry,[...] The net effect,
however, will only embolden Catholics, as well as their friends in
other faith communities."
The President of the League also wrote on their website that,
"Perhaps the most vulgar part was the sexual statement that showed
a scantily clad female dancer stretching backwards while an altar
boy knelt between her legs in prayer." Nicki Minaj offered a simple
answer to all the accusations, "the most comfortable I've ever been
What do you think about this celebrity scandal?

Service stop timeout
I have two windows services running together. One is the main program, and one is an "updater" wrapper for the main. The updater service starts and stops the main one (as in you should never start or stop main service manually, only updater). On most computers it works great, the updater's onStop() can start and stop the main service perfectly. On some computers, though, the updater hangs when it tries to stop the main service. It acutally does stop the service correctly, but it doesnt seem to be getting a return telling it that the other service has stopped, so it sits there until timeout. protected override void OnStop() //for updater { this.eventLog1.WriteEntry("about to try stopping main"); updater.Run.StopService( ); //see below this.eventLog1.WriteEntry("should all be stopped. how long did that take??"); } public static void StopService( ) { SysLog logger = new SysLog(); logger.Log( "Stopping the Updater." ); //some other code goes here StopMain(); //see below logger.Log("main stopped"); return; } private static bool StopMain() { SysLog logger = new SysLog(); logger.Log("stopping Main"); ServiceController sc = null; /* Determine if an instance of Main is running. */ try { sc = new ServiceController("nameOfMainService"); sc.MachineName = "."; Thread.Sleep( 2000 ); } catch( Exception ex ) { throw ex; } try { sc.Refresh(); if ( sc.Status == ServiceControllerStatus.Running || sc.Status == ServiceControllerStatus.StartPending) { logger.Log("in StopMain(): Main is started, need to stop it"); try { logger.Log( "sc.Stop()" ); sc.Stop(); logger.Log( "sc.Stop() done" ); } catch(InvalidOperationException ex) { logger.Error(ex.ToString()); logger.Error(ex.StackTrace); } } } catch(Exception ex) { logger.Error( "Error stopping service. " + ex.ToString() +ex.StackTrace ); throw ex; } return true; } //Main's onStop() protected override void OnStop() { this.eventLog1.WriteEntry("stopping Main. This is where its hanging up"); // Insert code here to define processing. } Ok. So theres the relevant code. The wierd thing is this... if you find in the StopMain() method, there are two logger lines one that outputs "sc.stop()" and one that outputs "sc.stop() done". There is a 30 second delay between these two statements executing. This would cause me to believe taht the hangup is in the onStop method for the Main service. However, if you look at the onStop, the first thing it does is output to the event log. This event log output is 30 seconds after the logger.Log( "sc.Stop()" ); line. There is a 30 second gap here, where i really dont know what is happening. So in summary, there is a 30 second gap between the last thing the StopMain() does before calling sc.stop() and the first thing the onStop() method does, with nothing in between. So, that was a lot. I hope that made sense. Any ideas what would be causing that 30 second timeout there? Sponsored Links |

SOUTH LA (CBSLA.com) — A family says a pizza they were served at a local restaurant was laced with drugs and sent them to the emergency room.
"It was a like a rush, sweating, heart beating real fast," grandmother Ava Farley said of how she felt after eating several slices of the mushroom pizza this weekend.
The symptoms her 10-year-old grandson, Clintay Jones, was experiencing were far worse.
"He started cussing, going off, talking crazy, ran out the door butt naked," Farley said.
"I started feeling like dizzy and like crazy," the young boy said.
Farley and her grandson became so sick they had to be rushed to LA County/USC Medical Center. Doctors told them their urine turned up traces of marijuana intoxication.
The grandmother said doctors began questioning Jones as to whether he had been exposed to pot at home.
"They questioned him like, 'Have you had any of this? Did you do this? Is there anything in the house? Is this normal?' No, all we had was pizza," Farley said.
Farley's granddaughters both ate the pizza and didn't get sick but they both had taken off the mushrooms. She believes it was the mushrooms that were tainted and filed a police report.
CBS2/KCAL9 is not naming the South LA pizza shop because police say they haven't begun their investigation.
Eduardo Selbereo, who owns the pizza restaurant, says he can't believe the accusations.
"No, that's incredible, because nobody smokes marijuana right here," Selbereo said.
Farley says she just wants to make sure this doesn't happen to anyone else. She's hired an attorney and says her family may sue.
"I think that it's a threat to the community," the grandmother said.
The LA County Department of Health reports the shop has been rated a 95 on a 100-point scale.

'Covert Affairs' EP on Annie's Plan B, Calder/Auggie's Cover-Up and What's Next
[Warning: Spoilers ahead for the midseason premiere of Covert Affairs.]
Annie Walker's (Piper Perabo) deep undercover mission is proving more difficult than she thought.
"It's going to be messier, a little bit more chaotic," Covert Affairs co-creator Matt Corman promises The Hollywood Reporter of the next five episodes.
With a completely new look (dark hair!), a new name (Jessica Matthews!) and a new plan of action to take down Henry, Annie is approaching things with a no-holds-barred attitude. Completely separated from the once-stable CIA world, Annie is completely alone -- and that won't change any time soon.
VIDEO: 'Covert Affairs' Returns: Auggie Confronts Calder Over Annie's 'Death'
Corman hints that the coming weeks will see "more Annie on her own, acting independently," pointing out that Annie going completely dark is a CIA goal. "That's what the CIA wants and wants their spies to aspire to, but very few people go to a level that we're now seeing where Annie is where she's totally autonomous," he says. "It's what everybody would want out of their job, where they're making decisions all on their own without any supervision. But when you're in that position, the mistakes are yours as well."
The co-showrunner talks to THR about where Annie goes from here, the thought process behind her new look, the sacrifices Calder and Auggie are making and much more.
How much discussion was there with how dramatic you wanted Annie's look to change?
There was a fair amount of thought that went into it. We realized that it was probably important to embrace it fully and everything that it represented. That's where decisions like actually having her dye her hair rather than wearing a wig came from. We wanted to commit to what this meant from a physical transformation standpoint but also from a storytelling standpoint. It's a little bit of a different paradigm. With things like that, you can't dip your toe in, you have to go all in.
Is there significance to the "Jessica Matthews" name that she uses?
Not really. It's just an innocuous name. She wanted something that wasn't going to draw a lot of attention to itself. It's a fairly common first name and a fairly common last name. Those decisions when you're a spy aren't arbitrary. They can save your life. If it's too distinctive or too specific, it can draw attention. That goes along with her wardrobe as well. It allows her to be a chameleon, allow her to blend in to situations. Her goal in the back six episodes is to not only bring down Henry, but to survive. When you're in survival mode, every decision matters.
STORY: 'Covert Affairs' Bosses Discuss Annie's Life-Altering Move and What's Next
With her new identity, Annie's gotten a lot more brutal with how she operates, which we got a sense of in the interrogation scene. Is that just a preview of more to come?
Yeah, she's definitely making decisions that she wouldn't have made in the past. I think being alone and the stakes force her to be a little harder, a little edgier and a little more brutal in certain instances. If she doesn't do these things, no one else is going to do these things for her. All this life as spy, all these missions, all the treachery and deceit, it's starting to make her see the world in a slightly darker way.
We don't see her interacting with Calder [Hill Harper], Auggie [Christopher Gorham], Joan [Kari Matchett] or Arthur [Peter Gallagher]. How does she go about communicating with them?
The short answer is it's important that she not communicate with them. Now in this last six [episodes of season four], she will have interactions with them but whenever she chooses to do so, it's going to become loaded with meaning, importance and danger. Let's not forget, Calder played a role in covering this up, so if she were to emerge alive, he would be in considerable trouble at the agency.
Speaking of the CIA, they're taking more measures to spy on their own with things like polygraph tests. How does this affect Calder and Auggie as they continue to keep Annie's whereabouts hidden?
It makes it much more challenging. You'll see an agency on a back tilt and a very paranoid agency. That certainly makes it very difficult to maintain a sophisticated cover-up, which is what Calder, and to a lesser extent, Auggie, have perpetrated.
Are the risks that they're taking with their careers and lives by doing this going to bite them in the butt later on?
(Laughs.) If it came out in the wrong way, they would certainly lose their careers and possibly be tried for treason. The risks are enormous. What you'll see is that these back six episodes build to a very dramatic place where literally more is at risk for all of our characters in [episodes] 15 and 16 than we've ever seen before. That's what we're shooting now. We sent a lot of crew and cast to Hong Kong, which is an enormous undertaking. It's going to be a roller-coaster ride and those last two episodes are absolutely filmic -- they're really big in scope and we're building toward that.
Calder is being put in a position to be a double agent, in a sense, by befriending Henry [Gregory Itzin] and his group while maintaining his loyalty to Auggie and Annie. Does that put him in a compromising situation down the line?
He's definitely in a complicated place. Interestingly, he has engendered a lot of good will from Henry, who's a pretty distrustful person -- at least in the beginning of the season. That's an interesting spot for Calder to be in. The first 10 episodes we were always wondering whether Calder was good or bad, and I don't think that's the case anymore. I think we know he's on the side of good. but that doesn't mean he'll always agree with Auggie or Annie. He's a very opinionated character; that's why we love him. He's going to be bring his own agenda to every situation.
Does he have another agenda that we don't know of yet?
It's more just about process and the way they're handling the Annie situation. He and Auggie are really going to have a lot of conflict about that but it's not that he's a true double.
What about Joan and Arthur?
They have a lot on their plate. Arthur and Joan still have a lot of legal issues, or at least Arthur does. Joan is increasingly pregnant and also relegated to a menial job at Langley. It's quite a dramatic change from where we saw her from at the beginning of the season. All of that puts a toll on their marriage, and there'll also be some new reveals that will put further strain on it -- or a better way of putting it, Arthur will be privy to some of the things that Joan did that we saw.
They're not aware of Annie's true status?
They're understanding of the situation at the beginning of the season is that she's truly dead, so they're mourning. They're mourning her and they're mourning Teo [Manolo Cardona], who's really dead.
Do they find out about Annie?
I think it'll be better to not talk about that. That will be a big part of this back six, but I don't want to give stuff away.
Annie's original plan that she had is now off the table, so what's her next move?
She continues to try to bring Henry down and Jai's mom is an integral part to that. The first 10 episodes our team is playing defense a lot, and now we're going to start to see them play offense and strike back in some dramatic ways. It's tricky. Henry's a master manipulator and a master chess player. It's hard to outflank him, but that's what this is about.
Right now Annie and the CIA are running on two parallel tracks, so how do these worlds collide?
At a certain point, Annie will emerge from the dark and it's going to be very dramatic. It's in the middle of these episodes, but they will collide through her actions.
Covert Affairs airs Thursdays at 10 p.m. on USA Network.

text: Flip Through Apps Like a Fiend With These Improved App Switchers for AndroidAlan Henry3/20/13 3:30pmFiled to: AndroidAndroid downloadsDownloadsSwitchersUtilitieslauncherShortcutsFreeTime SaversApplication switchersApp switchersAndroid launchersApplication LaunchersApp launchersTop612EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink App switchers are a fast and flexible way to move between the app you have open and the one you want to use. No swiping through home screens, no endless scrolling through your app drawer. Here are some of the best, and how to pick the one that's right for you. Why You Should Try an App SwitcherSwitching apps in Android isn't difficult, but it could be faster. If you're using Gingerbread (as many people still are,) most phones let you long-press the home or search buttons to bring up a list of running or recently used apps, but if you want one not in the list, you have to find it on your home screen or dig through your app drawer. Ice Cream Sandwich and Jelly Bean users have quicker access to their app switcher through a dedicated button. App switchers give you a little more simplicity and configurability, letting you get not only a list of recently used apps but also a customized list of your favorite apps, through a number of different gestures.AdvertisementThe catch is that there are so many app switchers available that it's tough to tell which ones work well and which ones aren't worth your time. Here's a look at the best ones for different types of users.For the Speed Freak: SwipepadIf you just want the quickest possible way to get from the app you're in to the app you want to use, Swipepad is the app for you. Swipepad sports a 12-button launcher that you can customize with your favorite apps, folders, or shortcuts. When you need them, a simple swipe from the edge of your screen will open the grid on top of whatever app is currently running. Move your finger to the item you want to open, and it'll launch. It's simple, fast, and free. The video here show you how the app works, but don't blink: it's fast.Swipepad has come a long way since we last mentioned it, and if you're willing to spend a dollar here or there, you can get more pads with the MoreSpace add-on ($1), launch widgets with the WidgetPad add-on ($1), or let Swipepad dynamically assign apps to the launcher based on your habits with the Dynamic Pads add-on ($1).
