LastPass, like KeePass, looks interesting. Maybe I should try it some day.

Whenever we talk passwords, we always preach the same thing: Use strong, difficult-to-remember passwords, and different passwords for every site. Easy to say, extremely difficult to do through sheer willpower. I've tried many password-remembering systems, and this is what I've stuck with.

This should make Firefox more like Chrome

Firefox: If you want to compact your user interface in Firefox and turn your address box into a destination for not just URLs but searches too, Foobar combines the address box and search box into one.

If you often find yourself typing in a search command into the address box when you actually meant to use the little search box off to the side, Foobar is a handy addition to your Firefox arsenal. Install the extension and your address bar becomes a little more spartan, the address box and search box are now one.

URLs typed into the box take you to the site, but anything outside a recognized address like HTTP, FTP, or ABOUT: becomes a search in the selected search engine. In the above screenshot my entry of site:lifehacker.com Firefox will pull up the Google search results for Firefox on Lifehacker.com.

Note: Sharp-eyed readers noticed Foobar is similar to previously reviewed Omnibar—minus the handy shortcut building features in Ombinar. If you want your interface condensing with more kick, you'll want to check it out.

Have a handy Firefox extension—interface-altering or otherwise—to share? Let's hear about it in the comments.

Great. Now we can run again the Mosaic bowser!

This is just great: NCSA Mosaic on GitHub at http://github.com/alandipert/ncsa-mosaic.

This now joins the Quake source as one of my favorite old school projects.

(Hat tip flangy.)

I think that this is a bit silly, as tethering with the iPhone would be great for the wifi-only model.

Swedish site Slashat.se reportedly emailed Steve Jobs asking the simple question "Will the wifi-only version somehow support tethering thru my iPhone?" Steve Jobs' reply was a simple "no" and was sent from his iPhone.

Tethering is t...

Muy bueno.

Genial esta ilustración perteneciente a la serie Scrabble de Eduardo Salles que encontré vía Lento y disperso. Seguro que les encanta a los del Comité Contra las Faltas Voluntarias y el Lenguaje SMS.

Vaya. Tanto entrenar para al final que te den estas bírrias de medallas??

Ganar una medalla de oro en las olimpiadas cuesta un enorme esfuerzo, pero en cuanto al material del que están hechas las de las últimas olimpiadas de invierno, 550 gramos de plata bañados en 6 gramos de oro, esto le da un valor de mercado de unos 419 euros. La medalla de plata, que lleva 509 gramos de plata y 41 de cobre vale 305 euros, mientras que la de bronce, con unos 450 gramos de cobre y otros 50 de aluminio y zinc apenas llega a los 3 euros y medio.
