Sometimes you may download or create multiple pdf documents that you may want to merge into one document. Maybe you have used a program like WinScan2PDF that turns scans into pdf files or Joliprint which turns web pages into pdf documents, or you are receiving reports in pdf format regularly. If you end up with multiple pdf files you may want to join them together to improve the accessibility of said files.

10 Years Of Australia’s Fires As Seen From Space
NASA’s latest visualisation tracks fires across the planet and their effect on vegetation as they go. It’s frightening and yet hypnotic viewing. Imagine, if you will, a terribly serious documentary about fire. Inevitably, a stern toned man would pipe up about how fire was man’s first tool, and at the same time one of his deadliest foes. Fires can be warming, but they can also be devastating, and Nasa’s visualisation of the world’s fires makes for compelling but disturbing viewing.

Get Your External IP Address With A Quick Search For ‘IP’
Need to get your network’s external IP address on the quick — say for a quick round of port forwarding testing? You could head to your router’s admin page, but that’s kind of a hassle. You could point your browser to a single-purpose website like WhatIsMyIP.com. Or, even better, you can just search for IP. If you’re using Google or DuckDuckGo, those search engines will return your IP address above their top result. Handy!

Bargaining 101: How to get lower prices on everything
Bargaining, “wheeling and dealing” or just getting a deal—whatever you call it, it isn’t always easy to find exactly the item or service you want, and then ask for a lower price. Our American culture often views this sort of thing as the move of a cheapskate, or disrespectful/distrustful of the merchant and his or her pricing.

How to Avoid Fads
Are you or is someone you care about following that latest fad or craze without truly reflecting on why? In reality, fads make money out of our eagerness to allow our egos to be stroked and to be both like others and to not miss out on what others are enjoying. That said, it's very hard to resist a fad when your friends and family are keen about the latest object that seems like a must-have. It can be really hard to say no to what the rest of your tribe is playing with and using. And yet, you don't have to follow whatever your peers are wearing, saying or doing. And in so doing, you are not any lesser a person, nor are you missing out. Quite the opposite, you're showing other people that resistance is intelligent and likely to improve your wealth quotient too.
