Notables of the week –

Been busy this week with a lot work, so I have not had the chance to post much lately .  However this does not mean, I have forgotten about my blog 🙂    It is interesting…  When I made a personal commitment to actually write something often, everything I look at becomes a candidate for the blog.     So here are a couple of notables:

  • Diigo.com it is an old one, but I just started to use.  There are a few  things that are drawing me to it… 1) easy to use and clean interface; 2)  the Chrome Extension; 3) The ability to highlight text;  4) Bookmark, Tweet and EasyBlog at the same time.      I have been using Evernote for a long time… It will be interesting to see which one I end-up  with…
  • FreeFileSync – is a GREAT  *free* multiplatform tool to synchronize files.  Very streamlined interface, easy to understand, and fast.   Did I mentioned it is free?  I paid and have been using FileSync for many years, but there has not been an update since 2005.  Time to update… Tried the demo versions of GoodSync,  Allwaysync,  SyncToy,  and several others.
  • Microsoft’s Office Labs Community Clips Recorder (1) a free tool to easily record and produce your own screen casts.     Very easy to use.
  • I will post a dedicated post about virtualizaiton tools, but wanted to let you know about Sun’s VirtualBox ® virtualization client  —   Just took it for a spin and it looks like a very solid and good too! –   It is in the same league as VMware’s Workstation, with several unique features, including P2V.   Definitely worth checking. .

More soon.
