IBM Lotus SymphonyDisclaimer: I work for IBM so I may be biased but: IBM just released Lotus Symphony a free office suite (word processor, spreadsheet, presentation program) which handles Open Document Format and compatible with M$oft products. Although in beta, it's very polished and professional. I've been using Microsoft products for years and this is the first free alternative that I can actually see myself using (even if I didn't work for IBM). Having opened may presentation and spreadsheets files created in Microsoft (with formulas and extensive formatting), it seems to work just as if opened in MS. http://symphony.lotu...s/symphony/home.jspa You must register first to download but hey....it's free. |

Flash Tower Game of the Day: Toytown Tower DefenseYou may be getting sick of tower game posts but it find the genre irresistible.. Here's another one highlighted by JayIsGames.com, who always do a nice long writeup of the games they find - sounds like a fun game for kids especially. Aesthetically, the game is great and the pixel art is full of all the joy you can expect with pixel art. The ersatz mix of arrows, cannons, a castle you're defending and a Space Marine with a laser gun make the game either thematically diluted or pleasantly diverse, depending on your disposition. The enemies consist of typically non-scary creatures, flying pigs and penguins and little jellies—once again this can either come across as distractingly underwhelming or whimsically cute. http://www.utterlysu...b.com/games/tttd.htm |

Screen Stream - Broadcast your live desktop stream to others (free)The issue of software to share your desktop with others was raised most recently in this thread on our forum. Here's a free solution which doesn't require any special software (though note that users can't control your pc only watch it). ScreenStream lets others 'watch' your screen on their computers over the network or the internet. It is the modern equivalent of the overhead projector. When you turn on screen sharing others on your network (or even the internet) can view what is on your screen by typing the link (and optional access code) into their internet browser. They can continue to watch your screen until turn off screen sharing. http://www.nchsoftwa...om/screen/index.html

Help! My computer has lost the hibernation feature! Member UrlWolf on our forum asks: "I have no idea why, but after installing all drivers from dell, I still don't get hibernation as an option. It's greyed out in the task manager, not offered in the window that shows closing options."
