Plans for Weekend.

Hmm,

Good question. I think Plans for the weekend are going to involve a Birthday Party, and then some hard studying for my 70-621. (MCITP:Enterprise Support Technician), which I have next Thursday. Haven't been feeling the best recently, been strucken with the flu. I will be posting more PC related items, and items of interest within the next few days.


Here's a few things that caught my interest:

Windows Live Mesh : Basically a Remote Console for your Home, Work, and Virtual PC. Very cool and practical application. 3.7/5 for a relatively new BETA program that M$ released. Keep up the good work Windows Live.

Avast! : Personally, one of the best Anti-Viruses I've used in a long while, although if your running an old PC (Anything lower than a p4, with less than 1 GB of ram.) I wouldn't suggest it. It autoscans in the background, it pre-scans before downloads even initiate, and looks for all those badies that you wouldn't want running around in your PC. 4.2/5 since, I've only had a few issues with it, but thats when I was trying to break it :D

Opera 10 Unite : Honestly. And I know all you guys, probably scratching your head those that know me.. Opera??... Yeah. Typically i'm a Firefox, and IE guy. But honestly guys. This makes your life a joke. Built-in Mail reader, Notepad, Contact List, Tabbed Browsing w/ Speed Dial. If you decide to use Unite instead of Normal Opera BAM! you've got more applications, such as File Sharing, (Need I give an Explination?), the Fridge, which is kinda the equivalent of a Twitter to leave your post, Media Player/Photo Sharing.. (Once again, need an explination?), The lounge which, is pretty much a chatroom pre-configured, so you can chat with your friends in real-time, and a Web Server. All pre-configured. :D Well, enough sounding like an ad for Opera :) Try it yourself. 4.5/5 :)
