I am a part time nerd, part time chef and full time whiner. Did I type whiner? I meant winner...no wait, I whine a lot. I've worked in High Tech and Television and a few places in between. I've eaten fire roasted snakes and hand fulls of peeps (not in the same sitting of course). I'd like to share my experiences, so read on.

Technology: Software review 06/05

Type: CCleaner, Windows Systems Cleaner
URL: http://www.ccleaner.com/

This software is called CCleaner which stands for: Crap Cleaner. It really gets deep into you system and get rid of all those temp files and unused application files. Before using, READ CAREFULLY as to what is being deleted. IT will delete a lot of stuff, such as internet files etc. I cleaned around 1.3 gigs off my system the first time I used it.

Type: Azurues, Windows Bit Torrent Client
URL: http://azureus.sourceforge.net/

This is a Java based Windows Bit Torrent Client. Even though it uses java, it is very fast and seems to be well put together. It also support swarms, or tracker-less torrents. This will allow the downloading to continue as long as you use Azureus. BTW, the name Azureus is a word for Blue and is the scientific name for an blue arrow dart frog with yellow spots by it's legs.

download it now!

Type: Tor, Pathless P2P Program
URL: http://tor.eff.org/

As you can see, Tor is hosted at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, and justly so. Tor is a P2P system that creates random paths to and from sharing data. The paths are encrypted so no one know who is sharing what and where it's going. Uses include: Allowing Chinese to publish web files in their country without fear (the same people who just had msn ban words like "democracy" from Chinese search engines).
