FeedTree: P2P syndication delivery

FeedTree: collaborative RSS and Atom delivery
This is an interesting project that helps relieve the stresses on servers providing popular RSS/Atom/etc. syndication feeds by using the peer-to-peer concept to push updates around without having everyone hit the primary server. (Useful for those that get on the Slashdot temporary blacklist too).

Ricky Gervais Podcast Season 2 - At a price

The Ricky Gervais Show new series
I have thoroughly enjoyed the The Ricky Gervais Podcast, finding myself laughing out loud at the nonsense that comes out of Karl’s mouth and reactions from Ricky and Steve. It has been proven that laughter is good for the body, and their 30 minutes a week is one […]

Those who like it…. get arrested

CBC News: Actor in beer ads faces child porn charges
Alexander Keith’s annoying, kilt-wearing TV commercial personality gets pulled and tossed in the slammer (please forgive the double entendre). While getting hauled to jail I wonder if he said “Those who like it, like it alot.” At least Labatt has pulled the ads, one […]

Mac OS X 10.4.5 Login problem

FYI. I just installed the software update to 10.4.5, upon rebooting I could not login - my password kept getting rejected as incorrect. I double checked that Caps Lock was off, and I typed it in slowly character by character but all I got was the shaking head of the login window. […]
