Random Link Dump

These are mostly just for my future reference and/or they don’t need a full blog entry. If there’s something that interests you here, enjoy, but I’ve got to get these out of my “to blog” folder so we can get on with the fun stuff:

• Start page showdown, with Netvibes (which I need to try) coming out on top.
• Apachetop, for monitoring Apache in realtime.
• Stupidly fast disk defragmentation.
• Control multiple computers with a single keyboard and mouse (though it doesn’t get rid of monitors, so KVMs are still more useful).
• Sharing big files fast (and I’m sure these are use entirely for lawful purposes).
• 7 Great Things Built on the digg API (I personally think this is the most useful).
• URLSnooper, a program written to help users locate the urls of audio and video files so that they can be recorded.
• Handy .htaccess generator.
• Using DynDNS as a laptop LoJack (be sure to combine that with LaptopLock).
• Things you can do in Linux but not in Windows.
• Mounting Wikipedia as a filesystem.
• Turning off that “Security Error: Domain Name Mismatch” error in Firefox (and there are some legit reasons to turn this off, if you know what you’re doing).
• Power management with group policies in Active Directory.
• Linux for the creative set.
• People are begging to have their computers infected.
• Foxmarks: Cool tool for synchronizing Firefox bookmarks among systems.
• Become your own ISP.
• 101 Blogging Resources.
• Writing the perfect resignation letter.
• Firefox extensions for bloggers.
• Force Terminal Services to disconnect clients when idle.

That’s all for now. Once I get all caught up, I’ll post more entertaining entries.
