Mashable has reviewed 12 services that will track much of what you do on your computer, and share that information with your friends – or otherwise – on the web. I’ve mentioned Last.fm in a previous post about PandoraFM, but it’s not just your taste in music that can be tracked and published. Wakoopa tracks the software you have installed, and what software you actively use. Cluztr and a number of other services lets you share every website that you have visited. Plazes lets people where you are right now and what you are doing there.

My quest for the perfect thin wallet
June 20th, 2007 · No Comments
In my quest for the perfect thin wallet, I’ve moved away from leather models and have been a very satisfied user of the ALL-ETT billfold for a couple of years. However, sometimes I only want to protect a couple of credit cards and some notes. That’s when I use a wallet that I’ve made myself out of a single A4 or Letter sized sheet of paper, as described on Instructables. The one I made using a single side of a Tyvek envelope has been used on a daily basis for several weeks without any sign of wear or tear.

Mindquarry collaboration server
June 19th, 2007 · No Comments
Mindquarry is an Open Source collaborative software platform for file sharing (documents, images, media files, etc.), task and project management, team collaboration and Wiki editing that meshes simplicity and functionality. As a result, knowledge workers are able to connect with team members and share information from wherever they are, effectively improving team-work and increasing productivity within the company.
I’ll have to check this out when I get a chance. It sounds like a Java-based alternative to Microsoft Sharepoint Server.
