This week we made our own Tech News with Tim’s Linux 1 week challenge, Keith’s Leopard and Dave’s dual screens.
Applications this week is IM from Mozilla, screen savers [...]

Lightning, the cool email extension covered in TGGP episode 59 is now at version 0.7. Released on October 25th, Lightning now sports a new interface design.

Just the other day, I wrote about an article published by NewScientist which discussed an internet census that was conducted, mapping out the entire internet.
