take backup of your tabs and bookmarks in firefox

I was excited to figure out that its possible to take backup of my tabs, windows and bookmarks, basically my "profile" in firefox! Why? I usually keep many tabs and windows open, all for separate purpose and never close them... who knows when they will be helpful!

This is the link published by mozilla. The steps are quite simple too :)

Enjoy!

Link for Gazebo installation in Ubuntu 12.04 with ROS Hydro package

I had to search a little bit to figure out how to install Gazebo in Ubuntu 12.04 with ROS Hydro package.( Gazebo is now updated with ROS Indigo, which works in Ubuntu 14.04. )

So here is the link:

After this in terminal,
$ sudo apt-get install ros-hydro-gazebo-ros
$ rosrun gazebo_ros gazebo
