Some people (not me) don’t like using their blog’s web-based post editor any more than they have to. There are a few desktop clients to get around this, but which one is for you? Nutshell Journal recommends Qumana, and has a review up.
Google’s getting serious with their plans to become a cellphone/internet service provider. They’ve got a couple of “gPhone” prototypes in the works.
PC Users: There’s some more nasty malware (what else is new?). W32.Deletemusic deletes all your MP3 files. Nice. My question: Does it delete WMAs or AACs? Despite not liking Microsoft, I admit to using WMAs because a 64k WMA seems to be about the same quality as a 128k MP3. The files are noticeably smaller, and my MP3/WMA player only has a gigabyte of storage.
Microsoft is combating piracy in China by reducing the cost of Windows. What the heck? The article states that they’re lower the prices by 50%. Why can’t they do that here too? We all know that they’re making huge profits off us. Seriously, they’re lowering their rates in China, and they’re still making a substantial profit off the sales. Don’t tell me that Microsoft has to charge $250 for Vista. The problem with monopolies is they can charge whatever the hell they want.
North X East looks like a great resource. Unfortunately their links don’t appear to be working right now (something wrong on their end), but I was able to access the latest articles by subscribing to the feed…
Yeah, I’ve been reading North X East for a couple of months now. They’re pretty good. The links just stopped working today (I’m guessing they were changing permalink settings). They’ve fixed it now by the way.
