Oy gevalt! Google Translate adds 9 new languages, including Yiddish (Download Squad)

Sep 1st 2009 4:55PM "But if you take an English phrase, translate it first into one language, then translate the resulting phrase into another and then try to convert it to English, you'll likely see what I mean. It's kind of like playing a long game of telephone."

What? A game? Like translationparty.com? ;P

Get more out of your Airport card with AirRadar (Download Squad)

Jul 11th 2008 12:39PM While this app does have its merits, Leopard does most everything this product does. If you don't want to automatically join open networks, just uncheck "Ask to join new networks" in the Airport pane in the Network System Preferences. Holding Option while clicking the Airport menu extra will tell you the MAC address, channel, RSSI, and transmit rate of the network you're currently connected to. And if you want to disconnect from a network without connecting to another, just turn Airport off. (Why would you want to leave it on if you're not using it?)

Rember the memory checker (Download Squad)

Jul 3rd 2008 12:26PM Using the Apple Hardware Test would be more thorough and wouldn't require an extra app. Just pop in the install disc that came with your machine, boot it with the D key held down, and select the Extended Test. Hit Ctrl+L before starting the test to have it loop until you tell it to stop or it errors out.

Dry Fire - Time Waster (Download Squad)

Jul 30th 2007 11:28PM Don't upgrade your attack speed more than once. The upgrades past the first one make your meter go down faster, but you still need to wait for the animation.
