And recycle! Seriously, if we might as well make use of this vast, unused (obsolete) resource.

Utilities 2003 (for XP even) - in my best Ronco Voice ever

I must have been living under a rock (or I was absent that day), when I missed the Windows 2003 Resource Toolkit. A really nice collection of utilities for those laborious tasks that a well-defined batch file usually solves and more (now how much would you pay?).

Long have I wanted to implement a continuous build process that had 2 lava-lamps (green/red) indicating the success and failure of the build. I've been trumped by the Build Bunny. I stumbled across this on Greg's Site and I'm absolutely sold! Copious use of the Nabaztag API is all that's required. I wonder if this will fly with my boss?

Drivel (not dribble!)

Trying Drivel for the first time. Seems easy enough. Simple,clean interface (I love the GNOME desktop) an it supports half a dozen different blog-types. Worth looking into if you are using Ubuntu or another alternative.
