  • Instructions for building a FreeBSD-based firewall.
  • A free java-based database management utility for OSX. This will come in handy for the database management course I’m taking, and for getting my New Yorker DVDs on a hard drive.

  • This new revision to Gimpshop is finally OS X.4-compatible! Still requires X11, so it’s not entry-level software, but it’s worth taking the time to learn rather than shelling out for Photoshop.

  • I recently swapped Norton AntiVirus and IE for ClamWin and Firefox on a friend’s computer. This extension will scan every downloaded file from Firefox with ClamWin. Via: http://lifehacker.com
  • Videos from guest speakers at the Google campus.

  • First BellSouth, now Verizon is looking to squeeze content providers.
  • My aging dual 500mhz G4 has been misbehaving since I did some very clever housecleaning in the system folder. I’m hoping that an archive and install will resolve issues with my external firewire drives.

  • Wrapup of a year of video game lending at a public library. Seems like a great idea. Too bad discs are such a fragile medium.

  • Looks like I’ll be emailing Chris Coleman and Debbie Montgomery again. Here’s hoping they go for a municipally-owned, rather than a privately-owned, system.

  • The Feds are trying to force Google to release search records for evidence in the trial on the constitutionality of the Child Online Protection Act. Thus far Google isn’t complying.
  • DrunkenBlog gives a fantastic rundown on the Jabber protocol, which is gaining ground as the basis for interoperable IM. Google embraced Jabber with its GTalk client, which now interoperates with AIM and iChat.

  • AnonymOS, a BSD-based, TOR-enabled live cd for user-friendly secure internet use. Via: http://tech.memeorandum.com
  • An update to one of my favorite Firefox extensions. BugMeNot allows users to bypass logins for sites which require free registration for content. I use it all the time for newspaper sites. Via: http://boingboing.net
  • BellSouth is asserting that it’s not enough that users pay for access, but that content providers should pony up for bandwidth. Sounds like they’re just shy of blackmailing content providers for “complete and rapid transmission” of content. Via: http://sl
  • ArsTechnica gives a serious rundown on the performance of the new iMac. If you want benchmarks, skip ahead to p. 4. Also addresses user-servicability on the iSight iMacs. In short, it ain’t happening. This seems like a big step backward.
  • Wow is right. Newspapers, magazines, now radio. dMarc’s technology allows for per-station or per-demographic targeting of radio ads. Creative is uploaded via the web, and dMarc interacts with broadcasters’ automation systems.
  • This plugin turns Firefox into a rich search and browsing application across all of Amazon’s sites. Beats navigating Amazon hands-down. Via: http://lifehacker.com
  • Users form judgements about web pages in 50 milliseconds. Via: http://darrenbarefoot.com

  • I remain a little suspicious of OS X.4’s Dashboard. I’m not convinced that it’s worth the system resources it consumes. This little widget may change all of that. Now I’ve got one-keystroke access to my Ethernet, Airport and WAN IPs. Via: http://freemacware.com
