Interesting tidbits

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Couple of interesting things I saw over at Chris’ Blog this morning that I think need to be shared. First, the good folks at Lockergnome have started up FileofTheDay.com. That might be something to keep handy when you’re in the mood for some good freeware or shareware.

Secondly, the Barenaked Ladies have a blog. If you’re a fan of the band I’m sure you’ll enjoy reading it, although, like Chris, I’m a tad disappointed that they don’t have a way for fans to leave comments.

    Found via last night’s Tech Support Alert newsletter, F-Secure has made available a beta version of Backlight, a rootkit scanner/revealer for free, until July 1, 2005. This is a great chance to scan all of your home PC’s for free over the next couple of weeks. I’d have to recommend taking advantage of that! Tags:…

  • Random weekend thoughts

    Some things to ponder over the weekend: Umm where are you priorities? this story of a man who grilled a kitten has hit the Daypop Top 40, with all of appropriate condemnations, including a letter-writing campaign. That’s all fine, but if that’s blogworthy, where are you people on the abduction, rape, and murder of a…
