Password management that doesn't suck - Ask DLS (Download Squad)

Jan 4th 2007 1:11PM I too am fed up of forgetting passwords. I have been trialling RoboForm2Go (the portable version) and it's pretty comprehensive, I just don't want to shell out $39 for it! Looking forward to seeing some other people's suggestions.

Facebook launches official Firefox toolbar (Download Squad)

Dec 4th 2006 5:01PM Great, now all they need to add are a selection of RSS feeds, something that, to me personally, seems blindingly neglected!

The great reinstall: Worth it or not? (Download Squad)

Nov 2nd 2006 3:09PM I'd recommend doing a clean install. Sure, you might have to spend some time tweaking and installing other apps, but more often than not, I always start with a trimmed down system...I come across apps that don't really need to be installed anymore.

Online productivity suite Scrybe released in phased beta (Download Squad)

Nov 1st 2006 10:14AM I'm glad that this lives up to most expectations, I personally can't wait for my Beta invite. I may finally find a solution I can stick with, instead of switching between 30Boxes, Google Calendar and the next 'almost there but not quite' offering!

RSS Readers: SOUND OFF! (Download Squad)

Jul 21st 2006 2:19PM I have always used Netvibes...good functionality, always works and good keyboard shortcuts.

Google Browser Sync (Download Squad)

Jun 10th 2006 11:27AM Mine has been timing out too, the Google Group for Desktop Sync has so far not been able to help. It tends to alternate between a 400 error and a 51 error. Will wait and see if this sorts itself out before using it... funnily enought, it works from my laptop!

Depression motivates comment spam too, not just profit-lust and worthlessness (The Social Software Weblog)

May 3rd 2006 2:19PM I seem to be getting lots of these 'whinebots' (my vote for their new description) on my Wordpress site. They don't even say anything of value, just how little they are getting done, how bored they are etc etc.
Actually quite amusing sometimes...thank goodness Akismet has worked out they're spam!
