When I look back at the blog items I post linking to interesting developer essays and articles, many of them are originally from osnews.com. OSNews is a frequently updated blog that posts lots of small items every day. While nominally about operating systems, they really cover a much broader domain including websites and technology companies. They do an outstanding job of bringing early attention to interesting technology essays that I don't see mentioned elsewhere.

JayIsGames.com 2007 Competition Entries AnnouncedI can't quite tell if Jay is announcing a couple of entries each day or what, but there are some entries posted that you can play, from there 2007 flash game competition, and they sure look fun! I'm especially interested in trying Gateway 2, since I really liked the first one. http://jayisgames.com/tag/cgdc2 |

TaskMonifier -- Notifies you when some processes finish workingI've just released TaskMonifier -- a simple (FREE!) application that will monitor the processor, network or disk usage and notify you when this drops below a specified level. http://taskmonifier.ideasasylum.com/ It is ideal for detecting when a huge download has finished, when your hard disk image has been created or when those photos have been imported. I wrote this utility as part of my PhD to inform me when my calculations had finished. Once the level drops below the threshold, TaskMonifier will perform your selected action (play a sound, hibernate/shutdown, send an email or even an SMS to a mobile phone). |

Documeron: A nice free program for Recent DocumentsHere's a website that reviews very nice software. The program that's listed, Documeron, is a free, sophisticated "My Recent Documents" type program. I would recommend looking at this program and taking a look at the other software on the site. Documeron is a small memory-resident program that keeps track of all the files and documents you access at any time in order to enable you to find and/or locate these later on. It provides a number of functions such as filtering by date and type and tracking of deleted or moved documents.... http://www.freewareg...007/02/20/documeron/ |

Extensive Description of Windows ServicesWhile I have seen other descriptive information about the Windows services, none of the other presentations were nearly as comprehensive. What are services? By definition, it's a program that runs invisibly in the background. But can't the same thing be said for a number of programs that run in the background such as anti-virus programs? Yes, but the real difference is that services load and start running whether or not anyone logs into the computer, unlike a program that is launched from the Startup Folder under All Programs. http://www.theelderg...m/services_guide.htm |
