Automatic Internet
A modern person devotes to the Internet a significant part of his leisure or work time. Some may not even think of how unpractical their time allocation is. Living by the “as-long-as-it-works-I’m-happy” principle we are depriving ourselves of a great number of conveniences saving the precious time that we are always short of. Think about it – do you use the remote control for your TV, the timer on your radio, the answering machine, the cordless phone, etc.? Why? Obviously, because all these things make our daily life easier, adding comfort to it so we don’t have to waste the time on unnecessary actions. When applied to the Internet, the value of time increases, as the “time is money” principle works in the Internet in the literal sense.
This explains the growing number of numerous “Internet accelerators”. They try to solve the problem from the technical aspect, optimizing the hardware and the system settings. This increases connection speed to a certain extent. However, in practice such solutions do not produce any tangible changes. Therefore, optimizing the work of the user rather than the technical means is more efficient. Certainly, it is impossible to eliminate the human factor completely, but some applications are quite capable of automating some of the most annoying processes that take up a great amount of time. Thus, they turn the workaday routine of the Internet dwellers into an enjoyable pastime.
At present we would like to consider applications that save you the trouble of filling in endless forms that the Net abounds in – be it a domain or mailbox registration, signing into a forum or giving feed-back on an application, searching for goods in an on-line shop or just filling in a questionnaire… the list of examples is endless. Filling in these forms takes about 10 minutes on average. Isn’t it just the thing that is not worth wasting your time on?
Besides, in my opinion, this process irritates 99% of Internet users (perhaps, some actually truly enjoy entering their first and last names and grandma’s favorite meal J), therefore, applications that automate this process also save your nerve cells (that, as we know, do not regenerate J). Therefore, the time wasted on such actions is inevitably present in the “time-money-health” chain. In a word, there is no point in describing the benefits of such applications as they are obvious.
Let’s move on from the concept of such software to a more detailed study of definite examples. Perhaps, the best solution of this kind for today is the application iNetFormFiller. The last 2.6 version is a long way from iNetFormFiller v.2.5, differing by both new features and optimized speed and correctness of operation. The application has been considerably optimized for Russian speaking users. Many peculiarities of Russian sites have been taken into consideration, which has raised the quality of form filling to a new level.
This version is equipped with the ability to convert RoboForm databases into its own format, which certainly adds to the universality of the application. In general RoboForm is an older application that in its own time has gained a certain reputation. A younger, but rapidly growing iNetFormFiller already surpasses RoboForm by many parameters. However, until now older adherents of RoboForm have been finding it difficult to switch to iNetFormFiller, because they had to enter all data anew. Now they can painlessly test the new Internet helper in action.
Also, the new version of iNetFormFiller has expanded its scope, and now it fills in not only Web forms, but other forms in Windows applications. For example, at the start-up of WebMoney you are requested to enter your purse number and password. So what will it be, entering a huge number by hand and keeping some intricate password in your memory? Never, if you have installed iNetFormFiller v2.6 that will neatly enter all the information for you. I have tested it with many applications, and every time it proved to be up to the mark. Isn’t it nice when at every start-up of your favorite application at request to enter some data all you need to do is click one button, and voila, everything is filled in? On the whole I am convinced that the choice in favor of iNetFormFiller is quite logical and optimal. So let us move on to a more detailed study of its features.
