There’s a site I do enjoy called LifeHacker … it’s got some elements of geek to it but it mixes these things with the right batch of common sense in how people use these powers of geek to actually make life go smoother.
Here’s some links on today’s front page that came out and grabbed me:
Featured Reader Desktop: LiquidBlaze – This is how desktops should look! Very neatly put togerher, streamlined for a few uses, but not over the top. Finally, a decent Active Desktop usage.
Yahoo! Open Shortcuts – I’d like to see someone give this a shot and see if it’s goods, it looks like it is. It’s nice to see Google and Yahoo trying to 1-up each other in the field of useability … eventually I’m sure my blog will be hosted by one of them (except I like LJ too much)
Open Business Directory: Yellowikis – This looks like a new way for people to look up companies and information via the wiki format. Let’s just hope it doesn’t have all the negatives of a wiki too (just ask Adam Curry about that!)
10 Apps Every New Mac User Should Download – Haven’t read this either but I have a sense that I have a few of these apps already.
How to run another OS on your PC – I think I’ve posted on this before but it’s the method on how to use the free VMWare Player to run any OS that you want for nothing. This is a program I need to play with more in the future, good stuff here too.
