I use passwordmaker.org which doesn't require keeping anything in a database. It uses a master password combined with a URL to generate a one-way hash which you use as a password. There are browser extensions to make it easy to fill in passwords when logging in (they pre-fill the URL in for you). You can customize the password hash algorithm, character set to use, length of password, and also any prefix or suffix that is to be applied. Since many sites need a capital letter, a number, and a special character I have them static as a suffix to apply to the hash. With these settings it'll generate a password that meets 95% of the sites password requirements.
Honestly, the harder part is now remembering the username for each site (usually email or a few variations of usernames). I keep a database of my usernames for each site in the cloud.

I'm in the same boat, I administer the family business website (now #1 in sales in USA for their product). As a SW developer I can program, but graphics and design, not so good.
Either way, just keep trying. Approx every 2 years I'll refresh the site's graphics and design. Photoshop will be your friend. I don't think any books will really help, you need to try some trial/error.
Also, look at other sites to get ideas, nothing wrong with tweaking an existing site that you like. You'll get better and learn on the way; even build your own portfolio.
Or, you can hire out... but that's hard when you are a DIY'er
Maybe they can finally get rid of the 'beta' in the logo:)?
Overall, I think Google has a hit with their latest offerings. Google desktop for instance is a perfect addition to indexing and searching 65k+ Outlook emails (work still uses Outlook). Similar to Lookout, but doesnt crash Outlook. Google Documents has greatly improved and is perfect for sharing documents across PCs. Installing Microsoft office or OpenOffice is really optional now. While Gmail's interface isn't perfect, they have been making small updates throughout the months. I still think it beats Hotmail, Yahoo, etc...
I primarly use GAIM for AIM/MSN at the same time with logging. However I need to keep AIM installed to send/receive files; you would think the file capabilities would be working in win32. It is a PITA.
I'm sorry but my roomate LOVES Stargate.... I cant stand the show. Take this as a rant but does anyone else think the series sucks? Bad acting, lame plot, etc...
Dont get me wrong but I agree most SCIFI series are lacking now; ever since STNG ended they just fell. Voyager was "OK" and enterprise just rates next to Stargate.
This is just my opinion, seeing if other agree or maybe I'm just way out in LH field on this one. I just cant see how ANOTHER series based on this is coming.....
Please dont take this as trolling or whatever they call it now.
I dont know but IMO a smaller/thinner notebook is a very specialized product for a small market. I personally have a Dell Inspiron 4150 and I think it weighs in around 5-7lbs, but I think it is a perfect weight/size. When you go smaller you start to lose drives (ie, cdrom, etc..), I/O connections, and also the laptop is so light that if you *accidentally* snag your power cord then its to the floor w/ the laptop.
I hate the devices that are too small... PDA/phones that try to be laptops (or laptops that try to be palm/small sized) are less user friendly.
Here is roadrunner's policy, doesnt specify many actual constraints but says they can limit:...
(b) The Road Runner Service may be provided by Operator subject to certain maximum "throughput" limits (i.e., limits on the rate at which data may be sent to or received from the Subscriber at any time). Operator will provide Subscriber with information regarding any such limits from time to time.
(c) The Road Runner Service may be provided by Operator subject to certain limits on the maximum amount of bandwidth consumption available to Subscriber per month for the level of Road Runner Service subscribed for by Subscriber. Operator will provide Subscriber with information regarding any such limits from time to time.
(d) Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that Road Runner and Operator shall each have the right to monitor Subscriber's "bandwidth consumption" (i.e. aggregate volume of data that may be sent or received) at any time and on an on-going basis, and to limit excessive bandwidth consumption by Subscriber (as determined by Road Runner and/or Operator) by any means available to Operator or Road Runner, including suspension or termination of the Road Runner Service....
"All copy-protections can be hacked, but if (we) give people what they are asking for in terms of value, they won't go out and steal it. It's called trusting the consumer."
i'm sorry but you cant trust the consumer!
Not only does this PDA look cool, but you can go into your local electronics store and hassle people by turning on and off the home electronics there. My favorite quote from the review: "A visit to a local consumer electronics store that shall remain nameless proved that the Clie TG50 is quite capable of controlling most electronics on the market, with some exceptions. I wandered the store turning devices on and off, frustrating a few customers who were shopping."
great so why do I need another remote??? sure it is cool, dont get me wrong; but where do we draw the line of functionality vs. need?
Or even better, a cheap laser printer, and use a service for your photo printing. I have never owned a printer, imagine that.
I agree completely! There is really no need for color printer at home. If you want to print digicam pics, then best bet go to walmart or whereever and pay.20$ or so. For me at least, out of 100 digicam pics only around 5 are worth printing...
Really I just print at work:).. Nice laser/phaser so cant go wrong... oh ya,,, free too!

Intel was a main contributor to the PCI bus... you dont call that Intel-propritary do you? The PCI express SIG has many members; Intel is just one of them...
face it... the computing industry is run by benchmarks and benchmarketing.
I personally dont put too much trust into any benchmark. If I see an increase in performance compared to the actual software/hardware that I run, then thats all I care about...
Either synthetic or not, you can only put so much into a benchmark. Half of the graphs for bencharks have scales which are EXTREMELY misleading. It makes a.4 fps difference look like a 400 fps difference.

I think the little businesses just starting on the web will be hit bad if all sales were to be taxed. A lot of times, I bet the savings of sales tax is the reason for buying online. This will just reduce online sales and profits for these businesses.

Even at high resolutons (>1280x1024), the zoom is horrible. When fully zoomed out, you are limited to such a small portion of the map. I like the 3d but let us zoom out just a little bit more.
Also the maps are SMALL! You end up taking over 1/2 the map when you play the game. If you try to play with 6 players you realize the 8person maps are still too small.
Overall a good game, I think they did an OK job.
Intel already does invest a lot of resources into compilier development for their architectures. Usually you find a significant performance boost when using the Intel compiler on Intels. Ironically their compiliers also seem to provide performance gains for non-Intel as well.

"The issue is front and center in an obscure but important legal battle under way in Hong Kong.

I wonder how the amount of money spent on legal fees compares to the $$ lost from just allowing mod chips? Is this just a principle thing?
