World at Night

I’d just like to say that most every geek has seen Google Earth. Also, I’m willing to bet that everyone has seen the space-based night shots of the earth. Still, this video is pretty snazzy. Now, go turn off your lights!

Browser Keyboard Shortcuts

I’d just like to say I am a diehard keyboarder. In a perfect environment, I should find myself rarely reaching for the mouse. Keyboard shortcuts are an efficient and quick way to manage most applications and their respective tasks. I’ve stumbled across another cheat sheet covering keyboard shortcuts for Mozilla, IE, and Opera. Cut down on your mousing-hand carpal tunnel by memorizing this table. You may even learn something new!

Google Cheat Sheet

I’d just like to say I came across this handy dandy Google Guide Quick Reference page. I am usually pretty good at using search engines and getting the results I am looking for, but I’ll be the first to admit I had no idea about a number of the advance operators. FAB!

Rubik’s cube solver

Current Song: Greenday – Welcome to Paradise

I’d just like to say I suck at Rubik’s cube. Maybe I just don’t have the patience for it? ADHD?

Happy birthday MP3

Current Song: Nirvana – All Apologies

I’d just like to say that today, July 14th, is the audio-codec-currently-known-as MP3′s 10th Birthday! It amazes me that it is still the defacto digital audio standard after all this time, even with competing formats like AAC, WMA, and Ogg.
