Mini-Review: Obulis (game)Obulis is an outstanding physics based puzzle game for the PC. It began as a pair of excellent PocketPC games (Obulis and Obulis: The Second Epoch), which recently were named in a list of "All-Time Top 10 Games" by Smartphone and PocketPC Magazine (April/May 2008). Now that the game has made the transition to the desktop, there is no reason not to install the demo and take a look. You won't be disappointed.

Mini-Review-John's Background SwitcherJohn's Background Switcher
I am personally surprised that I didn't find more about this gem when I searched the DC forums! This background switcher is probably the best I have ever used. It provides not only the ability to use pictures you select, or entire folders and sub-folder you select, but also allows for random Flickr and Yahoo photos/pictures! You read correctly, you can configure John's Background Switcher to grab the top 100 or whatever user specified number of photos/pictures off Flickr and Yahoo for endless random backgrounds. You can also specify tag/text keywords for Flickr, and search terms for Yahoo. There are other services that unfortunately I don't subscribe to or use, specifically Phanfare, Smugmug, and Picasa. Now get this, new to the version released this weekend, you can also get your friend's and your own FACEBOOK photos! |

Jungle Disk Mini-Review: offsite data storageJungle Disk (from now on JD) is an application that lets you store files and backup data securely to Amazon.com's S3 ™ Storage Service. Unlike other services, with Amazon S3 ™ there is no minimum and no maximum amount of data you can store. You pay only for the actual amount of storage you are using. It supports 256-AES encryption if desired.
In practice it's possible to access the JD drive as a mapped network drive in explorer, over WebDav or via the local http server (JD Plus). JD keeps a local cache of 1GB by default which allows most operations to be instantaneous with any changes being made transparently in the background. There's an inbuilt backup utility included which works well and previous versions are kept if desired. This approach makes JD suitable for backup purposes as well as temporary file storage or as an remote filesystem as it will work with native copy tools such as robocopy, sync tools such as SyncToy and SFFS etc. Version 2 (in development and tested here) includes some excellent refinements, partly based on user feedback, these include but are not limited to (see release notes):
