Finally, there is now a Chrome extension called Facebook Invite All, so if you are using the Chrome browser you can pick that up and it will add the ability to invite all your friends – and there is a GreaseMonkey script for Firefox to Invite All Friends if you want to try that as well..
Oh, and by the way, if you found this helpful please tweet it or share it on Facebook to help others find it too. The more people who share it, the more people it helps!

ell anyway I went on a little search and found that you could cheat the system by inserting a little javascript to make it happen! Here is how to do it:
  1. Go to your Event, Group or page and click “Invite People”.
  2. Once the page has loaded you should see all of your friends, but they are not selected.
  3. At this point, copy and paste the javascript code below into your Web browser’s address bar, then hit “Enter”.
  4. If all goes well, it selects all of your friends!
javascript:elms=document.getElementById('friends').getElementsByTagName('li');for(var fid in elms){if(typeof elms[fid] === 'object'){fs.click(elms[fid]);}}
If that first method doesn’t work for you give this a try:
Right click the “friend box” and open it in a new tab…
Then paste this ==> javascript: fs.select_all()

LaterNASDAQ helped the conditions by lowering the prices or bringing them down to a negotiable level so that trading could actually take place.
Over the years, the NASDAQ became more of an actual market ortrading platform. This was due to added trade volume and improvedautomated trading system.
In short, NASDAQ quotes are available in three levels;

With CEO Adnan Afridi, Karachi Stock Exchange is Pakistan’s largeststock exchange. It is owned by Karachi Stock Exchange Limited and is located in Karachi, Pakistan.

It is said that Karachi Stock Exchange is the biggest and most liquidstock exchange in Pakistan. This can be proved by the fact that it was declared as the best performing stock market of the world back in year 2002.
However, due to the recent situation, which is a result of events over the past years, Karachi Stock Exchange has experienced a big downturn. Global financial crises has also affected KSE performance a lot. So much so, that trading remained suspended for 4 months in the year 2008.
On the other hand, foreign buying interest had been very active in KSE.This was mainly due to the elections that took place and stocks were expected to remain cold. But KSE reached a 15000 point mark.
In all, KSE works on an electronic quote system. Therefore stock quotesare even available online. And now you can trade in Karachi Stock Exchange simply through web.

The race to capture the bigger market has begun. Google is now thinking of different ways to catch the attention of users. It is working hard on its features like Google TV and Chrome OS notebook etc whereas Bing is speeding up with its Facebook addition. To know who wins the race you need to question your favorite search engine through PC, mobile television or even Facebook.

Earlier, Bing publicized their new feature with the association of Facebook that it will show user’s friends Facebook likes and dislikes while searching for a particular thing using Bing search engine. In answer to this, Google makes a similar social search feature associated with Twitter. It also plans on launching a social networking service. Since people use Facebook more than Twitter, so the results for Google wouldn’t be much satisfying.
Google is bringing novelty and making their search engine better. They are moving way ahead in the areas like Google TV. Devices such as set-top boxes from Logitech and HDTVs from Sony is used to combine web with broadcast television, like if you to watch a particular show or a movie, simply enter the name and it will provide you with the list of local TV and websites offering you what you want to see.
Both the companies are working hard to provide us with the best of Digital Life. Although Microsoft is the biggest competitor when it comes to windows OS, Google also plans to introduce its application Google Chrome OS netbooks. However, it appears that it can’t capture the market the way Microsoft’s Xbox 360 has.
Taking in account ComScore’s results for U.S search engine, Google again proved to be the king in the market as it ranked on number one taking 65.4% of the entire U.S search. Yahoo stood in the second position with the percentage of 17.4, whereas, Microsoft’s Bing took the third position capturing 11.1% of the U.S searches.
Microsoft had to buy Yahoo’s search queries to get close to Google. Even then it couldn’t beat Google or came even close to it in market share. Considering the research done 16 months earlier, right after 10 days Bing was introduced, Google still managed to attract 1.2% more users. Hence, if you combine Bing’s search percentage with Yahoo that makes a total of 28.5, still way behind Google’s market share.
 There may not be any competition when it comes to web traffic, but the struggle for social web on mobile devices has just started.

Google went up to 66% in the share market and now dominates the world of search engines. Facebook and Bing( Microsoft) are partnering to improve search results on Facebook which many view as a mistake.

It’s the breakthrough in Online Advertising that made Google develop this fast. Facebook audience is growing at a rapid pace but the profits for each page is insufficient in comparison with Google. Bing has 11.2% of all the searches but the profits are fewer than that.
Google works as both search engine and advertising company, but the advertiseing wing keeps things camouflaged although it’s the ads that are bringigng in all the profits.
Google has spent a large sum of money to enhance its search engine which is the reason it broods about the online search service.
Advertisers in most cases believe that marketing via Google has profited them more than advertisements any place.
Facebook needs to improve the quality of its online search service to supersede Google in the future.

Facebook social network site, during Web 2.0 summit is going to launch new  email service name as Fmail. In the start of this year Facebook talk about their web base email service that is developed under the name ofProject –Titan. Largest social network website is going to offer email service to its more than 500 million users, in order to compete against the email service Giants that is Yahoo and Gmail.

Facebook has more than 500 million active users. By launching Fmail feature to the users of Facebook doesn’t mean that all of then will activate their Facebook email account. As most of them had already using email accounts but all together the Facebook email service will come to compete with existing email services like Yahoo, Gmail and Hotmail services.  At present, facebook users can only exchange messages together but present internal messaging service does not allow facebook users to exchange and send attachments together. Facebook has a biggest advantage to graft email onto its existing social services as it has large number of people data and information with them.
Facebook web base email service is expected to be incorporated and works with Microsoft web base version of office. Online read, edit and share documents option has already been added by Microsoft with its email client service called Hotmail online service. Therefore, web base office version option will be available to all Facebook Users at Docs.com. Introduction ofFmail, clearly shows Facebook‘s war with Google. In the past Google tried its best to compete with Facebook in social networking area, with introducing Orkut, Wave, Buzz and others but face very hard time.

We all have differing tastes and we each have our favorite TV shows, musicians, news channels, cartoons and so on and so forth. As we do live in a real and unfortunately imperfect world where things are bound to go wrong, we sometimes miss our favorite TV shows or programmers. Other times we simply want to see some music video we like and other times something funny might tickle our fancy and so we head off to the wonderful world of Youtube (now owned by Google).

Funny videos, music videos, TV shows, vlogs, football or any other sports clips, people doing crazy things or maybe even something serious like a documentary. Or perhaps you might just want to share a home video, in any case you can share and view videos on Youtube. The sheer volume of videos on Youtube means that there is always something for everyone. All this has meant that there is also a great demand for programs that allow you to download the videos off Free Youtube, because for one thing you do not want to have to search for it all over again and for another your Internet bandwidth might not be enough to allow you to stream the video seamlessly (that is without any stopping while it is buffering). Some people simply believe that with all the copyright infringement suits Google is involved in due to Youtube, their favorite videos might be removed and so they wish to keep a copy for safety’s sake on their hard drives. In any case no matter what the reason, if you want to know how to download a Youtube video free, we offer you a selection of sites that will let you do so without having to install any software prior. Keep in mind that all these sites that allow you to capture, download, convert or save Youtube videos and clips are free to use (however terms and conditions apply).
Download Youtube Videos is a site that is fairly simple. All you have to do is enter the URL of your video clip, music video, etc of choice and clickdownload. Then on the next page simply follow the instructions. There are no options to convert to any other format than FLV. This site involves renaming the file of the Youtube video or clip when you are saving it so be sure to follow the instructions. This site is best used with Internet Explorer.
Farkie is another site that allows you to download Youtube videos or clips. Farkie does have a few options in the file conversion format. You can choose to save the Youtube video as an MP3, AVI, WMV, WAV, MOV or FLV file. So if you want to download music only, Farkie can make it happen. Furthermore Farkie is very easy on the eyes, the site design is well done and instructions are clear and easy to follow. If you use Firefox, you might also like to get the Farkie addon. There is even a video tutorial for anyone who prefers to watching over reading.
KeepVid is another simple site. Simply enter the link of your favored clip orvideo and you will get the option to Free download it as an FLV file (low quality) or an MP4 file (high quality). This site also involves renaming the file and so be sure to do that or follow the instructions. If you are a Firefox user, there is a very handy link that you can drag to your links bar and whenever you are watching a video or music clip that you would like to Free download, simply click it and you will be redirected to the KeepVidYoutube video download page and so not have to enter the link of thevideo.
VideoDownloadX.com is another website that is easy on the eyes. This site allows you to download Free Youtube files in the FLV format directly or if you wish to convert it then you have the following formats available: 3GP, AAC, AC3, AVI, FLAC, iPhone, iPod, MOV, MP4, MP3, OGG and WAV. Furthermore in order to facilitate you, VideoDownloadX.com requires your e-mail address so that they can mail you the link when your Youtube clip or video has been converted. This is to avoid making you wait while other people are having their Youtube videos converted. In addition to that, VideoDownloadX offers the same Firefox feature as KeepVid, that is when watching a Youtube video or music clip that you would like to downloadsimply click on the link to get to the download page directly.
Download Youtube Videos is another site with few feature, simply insert the URL of your favored Youtube music video, funny video, vlog, clip, etc and click download. On the next page, follow instructions that tell you how to rename the file to successfully  Free download the video. This website also offers an Internet Explorer plug-in that allows you todownload Free Youtube video or clip directly without having to copy-paste the URL.
Youtube Catcher is a website that has a red theme at the moment. Some people may dislike this, especially if they use their computers in dark, poorly lit areas which may lead to such a theme being glaring on the eyes. The advertisements too are very prominent, however all this is offset by Youtube Catcher’s support for sites other than Youtube. This means that you can download free video clips or movies from sites like: Google Video, MySpace Video, DailyMotion, Metacafe, Break.com, Blip.tv, Spike, MyVideo.de, YourFileHost, zippyvideos.com, yikers.com, vimeo.com and others. For a full list see the site. The downloading part of the site is fairly straightforward. Enter the URL of your music videomovie clip of choice and click download . Then right click and ‘save target as’ (for Internet Explorer) or ‘save link as’ (for Firefox) and rename the video with the extension .flv to successfully download.
VConversion is another online resource that allows you to download free Youtube videos and clips. Simply enter the web URL into the box and select the format of your choice from a given list. These formats include WMV, MPG, MOV, MP4, 3GP, MP3, WAV and FLV. The website most helpfully identifies the media on which the file format is most likely to be used. For example MOV for Mac or 3GP for mobile phones.
Video Downloader is an absolutely no-nonsense, simple, easy to use website. There are no advertisements, in fact the only thing available other than the box in which to input your Youtube clip URL are instructions on how to save Youtube video. There are two formats available which you can use, they are MP4 and 3GP. We find that this is one of the simplest and easiest sites to use, besides being very elegant, and would recommend it highly if you wish to download a clipmusic videofunny video, vlog, or any other movie from Youtube.
Video Downloader is a very useful site if you want to download free clipsvideos or movies from sites other than and inclusive of Youtube. For a full list of sites supported go to the website. The downloading process is fairly simple, enter the URL of your Youtube or other sites’ movie, clip or video of choice and click download. You will then have the option to save the file as an FLV or MP4 and make sure you follow the instructions to download successfully. There is also a very handy addon for Mozilla Firefox and a video that shows you how to use it and its features.
Youtube Downloader is a basic site with a very bad design we are sorry to say. To download enter the URL of your Youtube video or clip into the box and click download. Its a very shady looking site and we would hardly recommend this as first choice.
ZamZar is a very useful site, not just to download free Youtube videostool but also to convert files on your PC into a format of your choice, and there is a lot of choice including: 3GP, 3G2, AAC, AC3, AVI, FLAC, FLV, GIF, iPhone, iPod, MP3, MOV, MP4, MPG, OGG, WAV and WMV. ZamZar also supports download and conversion of videos, clips and movies from sites other than Youtube (for list of supported sites see the website). There is also a browser button for FireFox that you can use to make things even simpler, very similar to the ones available at VideoDownloadX and KeepVid.
YouTubia is a slightly different site than all the others mentioned so far. On Youtubia.com you cannot download a Youtube video directly by entering a URL, instead you can search for videos on the site and then download a Youtube clip of your choice. The site design is simple and the website itself is easy to use. A nice concept that shows that there is innovation in the world.
Media Converter is a very nicely designed and classy site that looks almost like your Mac OS X desktop. Unfortunately, you can only make 4 uses before you are required to sign up. The conversion options are plenty and almost every audio and video format is available for use, you can even set advanced options. In addition to downloading and converting Youtube files you can also upload and convert files from your hard drive. You can browse Youtube on the site and there is even a FireFox addon that you can install. All in all a very functional site with good aesthetics. Fairly easy to use and lots of options available, however the sign-up is an annoyance.
vixy.net is a very useful site that also has a desktop version available for both Windows and Macintosh OS X. To download free youtube video tool simply enter the URL of your clip or movie of choice into the box provided and select a format. The formats that are available include AVI, MOV, MP4, 3GP and an audio only MP3 format. All in all a very simple but highly functional website.
Admittedly there are some drawbacks to using an online source todownload the video because it means that if your Internet is disconnected or your computer restarts for any reason anytime during the conversion process (almost all these sites convert the Youtube video into the FLV format or some other format of your choice depending on the options available) then you will have to start all over again. This is even before the actual downloading begins.
However the chances of such things happening are relatively small and these are in any case minor annoyances more than anything else and so we continue to use this online resources, with great satisfaction one might add.
