With all distractions that modern life brings, it’s not easy to keep your productivity up. Whether you’re an enthusiastic procrastinator, or just happen to have very little time at hand, there are a lot of people who really can’t afford to lose sight of business. However, by playing your cards right, it would be well [...]

Let me make a disclaimer here – I don’t really believe in fortune telling. Even more so, I don’t believe in fortune telling via a computer program. If the universe could somehow be tapped into by playing cards or marked stones, I fail to see how a program under 5MB could emulate that kind of [...]

Hit a key combination, type in a few characters and up comes Firefox. Onlookers think its magic, but you know you have installed a program launcher. Launchers are all the more useful for quickly opening commonly-accessed files, launch applications or when you are like us and your installed programs list fails to fit on the [...]

The northern hemisphere welcomes summer. I hope most of you are preparing for a vacation to escape your hectic lives and recharge for a couple of days.

This library, while readily accessible on the Internet, has no offline alternative – and even with Aibek’s tips on downloading flash games, Kongregate stumps us all. There seemed to be no way to play [...]

I mentioned in an earlier post that there was a new feature in Windows 7 called libraries, but I was mean enough not to provide any details. Here’s my attempt to make up for it. First off, this isn’t difficult or complicated, and it is very cool. Windows XP and Vista used something called Known [...]

How often do you use Google Image Search? Or do you bypass the image search for the “always in your face” Google Web search? I, for one am a habituated Flickr user; only occasionally traipsing over to Google Image Search for a look-see. And it was an error in judgment to neglect such a ready-at-hand [...]

Let’s be honest. There are a ton of free internet multiplayer games out there, a lot of them coming from the MMORPG genre, and far from all of them are able to match their retail competitors. A lot of these games are great fun, but they still feel like a free product. But then something [...]
