Well, time to get back to normal with some links for today … I’ve got a bunch!

Share a mobile phone connection with a wireless router – Some guy took a mobile phone, an access point which can be overwritten with OpenWRT, and a cable and now can surf the Interney anywhere that his GSM can reach on his phone. Very good stuff.
(Extra props for the OpenWRT site using WordPress!)

How to data-mine with Google – This is a nice page which talks about the different things you can do to “mine” data from google. I’ve used it to find some links that I did not even know existed for places to our web site.

2.60 Firmware Capable Of Playing Tetris (PSP) - I lack shock about this … the person whom has been programming Tetris for the PSP has it working with 2.60 firmware! The door hasn’t exactly spring wide open on development past 1.50, due to its enhanced complexity, but this might help it out even more.

How Nintendo sells their DS systems (Joystiq) – Joystiq is one of my favorite blogs, and this is a nice story about how the DS has done such a good job of marketing itself, so much so to the point that it’s sold out in Japan for the next month!
