No Microsoft is not here to rescue you..
Let’s face it: most PC’s are a mess. Adware, spyware, desktop applications, processes – all clogging your system resources and leading to frustration. Sure, you can use tools as Ad-Aware but they are good only for removing adware. You can also use tools like Advanced Systemcare for fixing Registry errors and fix system errors. But what if it’s not adware or system errors that are bloating your PC?
The Answer is - http://www.soluto.com/
1 . Soluto aims to solve one of the problems that bugs all computer users: poor computer performance , majorly cuts down the pc boot time.
2 . It is primarily dedicated to analyzing and optimizing your boot timing.
3 . Drivers, useless software, services and applications that run in the background and are not necessarily needed all the time as Quicktime player, Acrobat Reader, Bit torrent clients etc,can cause your computer to slow down while it is trying to boot …
In simple terms what Soluto does is .. it stalls all the above mentioned unnecessary
applications to initialize (it offers the option to pause the automatic startup process or delay them) ..
4 . It gives recommendations but no automatic optimizations.
5 . The company’s PCGenome project -- this is STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION could
help solve low level problems. Based on its user base, Soluto can identify which hardware has had issues with which software and offer the best solution. It can also help you pick out software that runs well on the specific model of PC you’re using. It is like we give the Option of “Send Error Report” in Windows to Microsoft to report the issues we faced ….
Tested and tried it Works Gr8..
Din't knew Isreali's could prepare explosive websites too.. :)

'Google' for recipes
Yummly
Powerful semantic food search portal. Yummly is launching a new food search site to find and share over 500,000 recipes on the web.
Similar to other recipe sites, Yummly aggregates recipes from around the web. But what differentiates the site is its powerful filters and search features. Not only can you filter results by type of food, course, and ingredient, but you can also break down recipes by diet, allergy, nutrition, price, cuisine, time, taste, and sources.

Back-Up & Version Control your Files on Mobile and Computer
http://www.soonr.com
Soonr lets you have a automatic and continuous way to back up files, remotely. It's great not having to manually copy files to an external drive; it's cumbersome to maintain and keep the external drive updated, and in a safe location ..
so SOONR is a complete one stop solution for all your safe storage needs and guess what it has mobile app too .. so you can store .. view and version your files from your mobile...
I wonder why in the world we use paid s/w's (CVS,SVN...) when there are free stuff like Soonr .
