AutoCAD for Mac 2011 now available for purchase (TUAW.com)

Oct 15th 2010 5:34PM You may want to try out the FREE AutoCAD clone that works on both the Mac and the PC. It's called DraftSight and it's from Autodesk's biggest competitor in the CAD space SolidWorks/Dassault. It should "look and feel" very similar to AutoCAD.

Jason's Favorite Windows apps: MindManager (Download Squad)

Oct 7th 2008 8:33PM I too agree FreeMind is an excellent FREE alternative and best of all it is cross platform. As someone who uses the Mac, Windows and Linux having cross platform capabilities is crucial and I know that all the hard work I've spent creating a complex map isn't lost if I choose to change computing platforms in the future.

The editor-in-chief giveaway: Win Ryan Block's gadgets (Engadget)

Aug 23rd 2008 1:22AM Anything I'm not interested in I will give away or donate to charity...no online auctions or making a profit for me. Got it free, give it free.

Pismo File Mount turns any ZIP or ISO file into a virtual drive (Download Squad)

Jul 27th 2008 12:17AM Wow...just read that AOL, Weblogs, etc. seems to be in trouble. As a faithful reader and ad clicker I'm very disappointed at the lack of notice, lack of posts, lack of recognition of the challenges, etc.

Visitors are quite loyal and a quick and dirty post to say we're halting new posts a few days would be nice.

And a little support for the "little guys" who spend many hours a day researching and posting would be nice too. Bet the "big-wigs" are drawing their salaries during the tough times.

Sriracha - the ultimate condiment (Slashfood)

Jun 22nd 2006 3:44PM The beauty of this sauce is it not only adds heat (and considerable heat at that) but also flavor with a slight sweetness and a garlic kick.

I pretty much use it anywhere I want to add a little kick. It's indispensible for rice, Chinese, Thai, Japanese, etc. but the most unique use so far for me...

Is it's the source for the heat and kick in my home made barbeque sauce. I prefer spicy foods and it adds that unique blend of kick, heat and garlic flavor. I've used other chiles, peppers, pepper sauces, etc. but most either added too much of a vinegar flavor but little kick or didn't compliment the other flavors in my barbeque sauce.

If I'm cooking homemade pasta sauce or just customizing a bland bottled sauce I also use it and pretty much universally I squirt it on pepperoni pizza for a little added kick.
