Geek Goodies!

What kind of nerd would I be if I didn't add some neat software + web links on my blog, eh? Here's a grab bag:

• Konfabulator: Add widgets to your Win2k/xp pc, i.e., add fun(ctionality). More RAM, better performance.
• kewlpAd: Only the best notepad on the planet. Free. Skinnable. Excellent 'Find' feature, reads any size .txt files (not restricted to 60kb like Windows Notepad ;-) ), especially useful for IRC file lists.
  
• Approcket: Cute little program launcher (Win2k/xp). Also launches bookmarks, media files and more. Again, needs memory.
• WackyVids.com: Great little videos to watch, including banned commercials, bloopers and more. Free.
• Extensions:

1. Foxytunes: Control your media player (choose from the list) from your browser. Very neat, plus skinnable!
2. Gmail Notifier: QUickly log in to your Gmail account with 2 clicks.
3. CuteMenus: Adds icons to context options when you right-click. I'm a gfx fetishist, so this works for me.
   

Nothing really. I've gone off posting those reviews for a bit, since I haven't been watching or reading much. Maybe when I finish a couple more books I'll have something substantial to say.

Great new albums out this year:

• Nevermore - This Godless Endeavour (Power Metal)
• Pagan's Mind - Enigmatic: Calling (Power Metal)

• Opeth - Ghost Reveries (Progressive Death Metal)

• Freak Kitchen - Organic (Progressive Rock)




• Ill Nino - One Nation Underground (Nu-Metal)
