Making Life Easier for Mac UsersI heard about you when trying to find a free screen shot capture utility [Screenshot Captor]. I write user guides as a small part of my job, and I love that I could get such a useful program for the PC (my mac has one inbuilt hehe). Looking through your catalogue since donating, there seem to be a few others that might be very useful to take the edge off having to use a PC all day. So my paltry donation (I'm a underpaid trainee) probably wont cover the use I get from your site.

Wallet Test = Honesty Test -> How Will People Behave?Here's an interesting situation. Will people keep or return the valuables when a wallet is dropped in front of them? ...Each of the 100 wallets contained $2.10 in real money, a fake $50.00 gift certificate, some miscellaneous items and a clearly written ID card identifying the lost wallet's rightful owner. We were curious as to how honest people would be and wanted to see how different groups would compare to each other. For example, who would return the wallets more often... men or women? Young or old? http://www.wallettest.com/

CyberNotes: Recover Deleted Files FreeOne of my worst nightmares is deleting a file from my PC just to realize that I still needed it. It has happened to me several times, especially since one of my favorite key combinations is Shift+Delete, which “permanently” deletes a file– bypassing the Recycling Bin. Then a few moments later is when you say “uh oh!” Have no fear, because Windows just deletes the reference to the file without actually removing the file from your hard disk…therefore giving you the possibility to recover your lost file. This is also important because if you can recover files that have been “deleted,” so can many other people. http://tech.cybernet...eted-files-for-free/

FatBlog: "Joel, Please Get Off of Software"I link to Joel Spolsky essays quite frequently (I find them often insightfull even if Joel can be much too self-promoting for my tastes). Well member f0dder on our forum posted a link on a recent forum thread, to a blog that rips into Joel with some serious skill and humour. For your consideration is this terrific autopsy with commentary on an essay Joel wrote on hiring people: Am I the only person who’s sick of watching people like Joel On Software spew obvious nonsense? Starting a business is about not throwing away your budget. Most of us don’t have a several year old blog full of other nonsense to convince VCs to recapitalize us just because we lit our first budget on fire to watch the pretty dollars burn. http://blog.sc.tri-bit.com/archives/171
