For all you gadget and gaming freaks do not forget that Sony’s new handheld gaming device the PSP hits Stateside tomorrow. I wonder if Walmart will have them available at midnight tonight? I will let you know if I can manage to snag one and I might even do a review if I can squeeze […]

Damn, if this isn’t an exciting year of competition for everyone! Yahoo buys Flickr. HP buys Snapfish. Google does what Yahoo does and refers to these as ’side projects’. Well now we are back to the desktop search phase of the game and Yahoo is updating their’s by allowing users to index both offline and […]

If you live in the US, I am sure you are familiar with the Columbia House (or BMG) process of getting 12 CDs for a ridiculously low price. As tempting as it was, your parents probably always told you that there was a catch and for me that catch involved black helicopters, FBI agents, and […]

We provide free storage and free bandwidth for your […]

While surfing around the web I came across this demo application of someone using AJAX to implement a live chat room. Not sure if the page updates for your screen if we are on at the same time, but it is a good way to see AJAX in action.

When you are new to Linux you will find that there are more commands to use on the commandline than there are words in the English language (okay not really). But all these choices can be a bit overwhelming. Fortunately, Linux also provides a mean to easily find out what these commands do. These are […]

The new PowerBooks apparently have a small device called an accelerometer which is supposed to sense when the laptop is dropped. If sudden movement is detected by the accelerometer, the hard drive instantly parks its heads to protect data. Definitely a neat piece of technology, and, of course, it has piqued the interest […]

Though I’m not sure why, a guy took the time and effort to mod his motorcycle to run UNIX (FreeBSD 5.2.1 to be exact). It currently logs video off his helmet cam and, eventually, he’d like it to log tracks from a Garmin GPS V, power his iPod as well as interconnect with the […]

Wired recently published an article that took an in-depth look at the world of blank media, mainly the CD and DVD industry.
They assert that basically all of the hundreds of brands available come from one of 3 manufacturers, although some media is made to specific standards by whoever is purchasing it (sony, fuji, etc.).
Does brand-name […]

FeedTagger is a new online RSS service that lets you upload your feeds via an OPML file. Once you have uploaded them, you can organize them using tags.
If you really like organizing your information using tags (think del.icio.us), then you should give this a try.
UPDATE: I added the link. Sorry I forgot to include it.

It can’t.
At least, that is what Dean Edwards is saying. He has had a look at the rendering engine used in IE, named Trident. He says that for that engine to support CSS2 properly, it would need to be completely rebuilt, which cannot be done by the date they are expected to release the first […]

David Lazarus of the San Francisco Chronicle published an article today that took an in-depth look at one of the sites that claim to give out Free iPods.
It was a site that I had not heard of before, and its practices seem to be much different than that of Gratis, which runs the FreeIpods.com and […]

I describe it as a ‘Titanic’ in space. It’s a real tearjerker, and it will be received in a way that none of us can expect

WTF is that shit? He must be out of his mind if people are going to see it like they do Titanic. Nobody knew what to expect with Titanic, but […]

That weird guy (some people call him Dan Benjamin) over at Hivelogic has written an excellent tutorial for anyone on OS X showing you how to install Ruby, Rails and FastCGI so you can jump on the next great development bandwagon.
Why do bloggers seem to write better tutorials than other major sites?

DVD-Jon (the guy who broke the CSS encryption on DVDs just so he could watch the damn things on his Linux computer) has done another remarkable feat and created an interface that allows you to buy iTunes Music without the DRM. Since I don’t buy from iTunes because I purchase all 586 CDs I listen […]

An article in InfoWorld discusses whether Longhorn will have enough compelling features to convince users of Windows systems to upgrade. The article goes into details about why it is difficult for Microsoft to create a best of breed anything and it seems that the answer is they are just too big.
In my non-expert opinion, Microsoft […]
