This may be old news to information architects and the like, but for an outsider, the idea of "mind mapping" as a prototyping tool is exciting in a geeky sort of way. Seems useful for any number of applications and it's good to see options out there beyond spreadsheets and site mapping software.

"Some network programs require that you configure port forwarding in your router, so that they will work properly. This is confusing to many people, causing many newcomers to give up. For those who know what they are doing, it is time consuming. There is a quicker and easier way.
Fortunately, most routers support a standard called Universal Plug and Play (UPnP), meaning that you can use the BaUPnP tool to update your port forwarding settings, without going through all the menus in your router.
BaUPnP is a free command line utility that automates the process of forwarding your ports."

"The application is only useful under MacOSX. Under MacOSX several internet settings which were available under MacOS 8 and 9 are still present and are still used by most internet applications, but they are no longer accessible by the user. So if these settings get corrupt for some reason there's no way to repair these settings anymore. MisFox makes some of the most important internet settings accessible again."

With this new feature it will be possible to install applications just by clicking in a link that point to a new apt:// protocol, it will call a dialog asking if the user really wants to install that package, if yes the superuser password will be asked and the package will be installed. It’s simple like that :)

"This far out and groovy date picker is light-weight (about ~15k of javascript/css) and easy to use! It takes full advantage of the prototype JavaScript library, resulting in much smaller, leaner (but powerful) code. This means your apps will load faster! Yay! More hoopla for everyone!
Did I mention it's capable too? It can pick a date, or a date with a time, as a popup selector or an embedded calendar!"

"Parallels Desktop is the first solution that gives Apple users the ability to run Windows, Linux or any other operating system and their critical applications at the same time as Mac OS X on any Intel-powered iMac, Mac Mini, MacBook or MacBook Pro.
Unlike dual-boot solutions, in which users must completely shut down Mac OS X and endure a full OS start-up cycle to access a important application, Parallels Desktop for Mac empowers users with the ability to run important Windows programs like Outlook, Access, Internet Explorer and all other applications without having to give up the usability and functionality of their Mac OS X machine even for a few minutes."
