For as little as $0.25, you can set up web sites at NearlyFreeSpeech.NET, the original home of only pay for what you use hosting.

This is the penultimate service that this server provides as I have already transferred email to Google Mail and ClickOnce hosting to Dropbox.com.

I believe this is better for the long term. I was thinking of decommissioning the server anyway, as the last service it provides is media server that works with my XBOX360. For this purpose, I am now looking at the LaCie Network Space MAX 4Tb.

Jim, as you may remember, is currently using Karaokidex to run the karaoke parts of his gigs. He asked me to give him a website, so there it is.

We’ve always liked Weather Underground for its no-nonsense, real-time weather info. Today they’ve released a new service called Full Screen Weather that mashes up Google Maps with weather data for nothing but maps and up-to-the-minute weather info.

Robots born with the sole purpose of solving the Rubik’s Cube are nothing new, but we’re pretty sure we haven’t seen one crack the code in under a dozen seconds before.

Now all we’ve got to do is finish papering, and get new skirting boards and door and window frames.

What if you want to snap a window to the right edge of the primary monitor, or the left edge of the secondary monitor for that matter?

Well, thankfully, Aero Snap can also be utilised via the keyboard:

• Holding the Windows key down and tapping the left cursor key will cycle the current window from monitor edge to monitor edge anti-clockwise.

• Holding the Windows key down and tapping the right cursor key will cycle the current window from monitor edge to monitor edge clockwise.
• Holding the Windows key down and tapping the up cursor key will maximise the current window on the monitor which it is displayed.
• Holding the Windows key down and tapping the down cursor key will restore the current window if it is maximised and minimise it if it is restored.

Like prior versions of Windows, this is one of your options when right-clicking an item; it does what it says: it sends a copy of the object to the option you choose. The default choices with a normal right-click are the Desktop, a Zip folder, a fax or mail recipient, or any additional drives connected to your PC.

The How-To Geek offers an easy way to customize the default choices. Simply type “shell:sendto” (without the quotes) in the location bar of a Windows Explorer window. You’ll see the default choices here. Now you can pull any of the defaults out or you can add locations you want in the standard list with a simple drag-and-drop.

The couple I usually add are Notepad++ and BareTail for log file monitoring.

One of the cooler stories out (of) the whole Google-China debacle is that Google hacked the hackers.

I’d initially looked at the RCA EZ409HD, but after reading the disappointing reviews, I decided on the Flip Ultra HD. It’s fairly inexpensive and very easy to use, and the quality is excellent.

You can see some of the early camera work by me and Laura on Alfie’s blog.

Here is a simple hack that can enable you to place ALL the Tasks Control Panel and System Settings in ONE place!
Create a new folder on your Windows desktop.

Name the folder as:
