  1. Quicktime 7 for Win on iPod nano, iTunes 5, iTunes Phone · · Score: 5, Informative

    With iTunes 5 also comes Quicktime 7 for Windows.

  2. Re:Two open source solutions on Password Storage for Fun and Profit? · · Score: 1

    I find KeePass quite useful.

  3. Re:Some foresight required on Matrix 3D memory is World's Smallest · · Score: 1

    After all, isn't some thing smaller than a pill going to cause a much smaller overall environmental impact than, say, a DVD video disc or a VHS cassette tape?

    The environmental impact of devices such as these should be measured not only in space they take in a landfill, but also on the manufacturing process and the resources needed to make them.

  4. But seriously, is it useful? on Google Ride Finder Announced · · Score: 1

    April fools aside, I'm not sure how this would be useful.

    They seem to only show available cabs, but which cab you get is up to the dispatcher, making the information available to you potentially useless.

    In other news.. GMail now offers 2gig storage at least + more space daily as you reach the limit as well as rich text editing. Plus the amusing page up now.

  5. Re:So ? on The Story Behind Cell Phone Radiation Research · · Score: 1

    I'm not as concerned about the rest of the city. Levels there are probably not so high on average.

    The more pressing problem in urban areas are cell phone towers on low rise buildings, especially when they neighbor higher buildings. I look out my window and have a cell phone tower 20 feet away on the same level. Is this safe? I highly doubt it, and I fear it will become more common.

  6. Older Sideclip on Best Leatherman-Style Multitool? · · Score: 1

    I have a Leatherman Sideclip which is no longer made. The pliers did break on me once, but Leatherman replaced it under warrantee without incident if I remember right.

    I would recommend getting a locking blade if possible. A blade that can move is very annoying.

  7. Re:Does it still drop files everywhere? on Picasa 2.0 Released, Reviewed · · Score: 2, Informative

    That was the main reason I didn't use the earlier version of Picasa as well. Just trying 2.0 very briefly so far, I haven't found files dropped all over the place yet. So the database appears to be more centralized. It does create a file or two when you edit a photo however, along with a hidden folder containing the original file. Nice for restoring, but I like to keep the directories neat, for use with other programs.
