    I'm not the typical geek. Looking like a cross between a cowboy and a biker who with hair down to my asscrack and a beard almost to my chest and liking the really heavy metal music, I'm proof that you don't have to look like the stereotype part in order to do the job. How atypical of you. I'll bet you're the life at all the cool parties.

    FreePOPs is a great utility which allows you to check webmail (including Gmail / Hotmail / any Squirellmail based site) as if it were a standard POP3 account.

    It runs on Linux, OS X and Windows. If anyone is interested, I've written a guide for installing and using FreePOPs with OS X and Apple Mail or Microsoft Entourage.

    You can also use Aaron Swartz's link generator to create archive-safe links for the NYT. Two of our prominent Australian newspapers are planning to require registration in the near future - I wonder if that will drop their search rankings (which are currently much higher than the NYT).
