Overuse of “Like” is a bad thing.

Ever been annoyed by having a site try to force you to register in order to access some pitiful resource from it?

Well, maybe you haven’t, but I have. For a while now I’ve been using bugmenot (and it’s associated firefox extension) to avoid many of these pointless registrations. It’s simply a database of usernames and passwords for sites of this nature that are free to use by all. The firefox extension will even do the lookup and login for you automagically. Check it out!

Bugmenot also now has a sister site called www.retailmenot.com full of coupon and voucher codes for many online retailers. There’s a firefox extension for this too – I’ve not used it in anger yet, but if it’s as useful as the bugmenot extension, I reckon it’s worth taking a look at.

Well, did you try rebooting?

Um…

“Banking on my hopes that whoever grades this will just look at the pictures, I drew an exponential through my noise. I believe the apparent legitimacy is enhanced by the fact that I used a complicated computer program to make the fit. I understand this is the same process by which the top quark was discovered. “

A few times now I’ve had to deal with iPods of various flavours. It’s never much fun, but I’ve always been loathe to install iTunes, cos (in my opinion, at least) it seems to be a little bit shit. When dealing with an iPod all I have ever wanted is a simple interface for moving media to/from it. Enter SharePod.

On Windows at least, SharePod seems to be the tool for the job. It’s been able to deal with any iPod I’ve ever connected to it, and is a much more pleasant experience to deal with than iTunes. Try it, you might like it!

Oh, and by the way, did I mention it was free? I like free. Free is a good thing.

Yay!

“The world is like a ride at an amusement park and when you choose to go on it you think its real because that’s how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and round and round, it has thrills and chills and it’s very brightly coloured and its very loud and its fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time and they begin to question: is this real or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to us and they say: hey, don’t worry, don’t be afraid, ever, because: this is just a ride.”
