Today I logged into my Yahoo! email account and was pleasantly surprised to see that they have upgraded everyone for free. Seems as though they are trying to catch up to Google, which shows why competition is a good thing. Here is what’s new:

Increased storage capacity to 100MB
Increase in total message size to 10MB
A streamlined […]

Nice for those people who wonder where the good security libraries are in PHP and might be tired of constantly writing their own. Make sure to read the comments for even more suggestions.

It’s coming. My favorite browser is quickly approaching its next milestone and soon we will be at 1.0. If you are interested in seeing what is new in the most recent version of Firefox then you should go over to MadPenguin and check out his take on it. I recommend you go check it out […]

Everyone’s favorite column is back this week and today they talk about surfing the web…with Lynx…ummm…no fun. In any case, if you are bored and left without a GUI well then Lynx might be your only option. Sort of like being stuck in a storm shelter and having nothing to eat but saltine crackers. In […]

It’s now time for Part II of this series. I tried to look over the code, but it pains me to read code on the webpage and I wasn’t in the mood for cut & paste action. Anyways, they use modules so I am guessing that it must be halfway decent.

Every programmer needs to know how and when to use multitasking. Peter Aitken shows you how easy it is to accomplish in .NET.

You hear that?! Every programmer needs to know. So if you are a programmer you have no choice but to read this article or they will seriously take your programming license away. Seriously…….Not […]

This goes along with my article on the Geek Ego. Unfortunately there are no real new revelations in this article, but saying how the Linux community is splintering is kind of silly.

We now have two distinct classes of Linux users whose interests are not the same, and perhaps we have more than that if […]

MoreGoogle seems to give you better annotated results for your Google searches. Looks really nice, but no way in am I going to use IE. But if that kind of thing works for you it seems to be some pretty cool software to try out.
On a sidenote, Google is probably gonna jump all over this […]

Don’t really know how important that is as most people who use bluetooth devices aren’t really transferring large amounts of data, but progress and innovation never hurt. At least they are keeping things backwards compatible.

Griffin Technology announced today that they have begum shipping the iTrip mini FM transmitter for the iPod Mini, one month earlier than originally announced.

Can’t say that I ever go diving, but if I did I would make sure to load up on some music before all the sharks ate me. Highlights:

Enables you to listen to digital audio media while SCUBA diving, free diving, snorkeling and engaging in other active water sports
Review audio manuals on dive equipment use (Perfect […]

It’s not much of a secret that Apple is increasingly eyeing the Digital Media field. It started with the iPod then moved onto Apple creating a separate iPod division and now we have the AirPort Express. The latest and greatest G5 is merely a 2.5Ghz when we were promised a 3Ghz machine around this time. […]

If you liked the two sets of Clone Wars animated shorts which aired earlier this year and late last year, you’re in for a treat. It’s been anounced that there will be five new episodes which will air in March 2005. Even better, instead of being three minutes long as before, each of these episodes […]

The mouse was a great invention. It was, without a doubt, one of the catalysts that moved computing from the lab to the office and home.
However, experienced users often find that the mouse sometimes gets in the way and slows us down. Moving a hand from keyboard to mouse breaks the flow of many operations.

A Linux distribution that seems to get rave reviews, but not tried by many because you have to purchase it is Xandros. Well now they have a free, non-commercial edition available and if you are interested in Linux or are currently using it I would highly recommend that you give this a shot. There are […]

I would like to say something insightful, but the only thing I can think of is the Simpsons episode where Homer eats sushi and the new chef cuts it wrong so Homer thinks he is going to die. Homer probably wished he had the new fish instead. Less worries.
It is fascinating though how they rid […]
