YouTube has become a web legend for its astoundingly awful comment threads. We’re not sure how it managed to overtake Digg and Slashdot in the inanity department, but it most definitely did. While we hold out high hopes for the sardonically named Stupid Filter, in the mean time we have solution for YouTube comments. Andy Biao recently pointed out YouTube Comment Snob, a Firefox extension that filters out undesirable comments from YouTube threads. The extension ...

You’ll never see me driving around in a pimped out car, but tweaking the looks of my computer and everything on it is a whole different case altogether. When you surf around the web long enough, it will happen. It’s just a matter of time. Sooner or later you’ll arrive on this God awful website that’ll make you scream out in terror and hide beneath your desk. For some reason or another, some people just ...

Recently, there was a minor earthquake in Los Angeles and even before the news channels could broadcast the information, the news spread like wildfire through different mediums on the internet such as Twitter, social media sites and news aggregators. In fact breaking news is in itself a fully fledged business on the internet and a huge number of blogs and websites work around the clock to get the news to its audience. Consequently, there are ...

Back in January I treated myself to a new laptop, a mobile workstation. Compared to my old laptop, the new machine was operating at the speed of light. However, with all the software that came and went over the months, and despite regular system maintenance, some minor but annoying bugs had crept in along with the performance slowly declining. At some point reinstalling your machine simply is inevitable. Although my system was not at that ...

Psst. Want in on a secret? You can leech free wifi from some paid hotspots by monkeying around with the URLs. Most paid wifi hotspots accept your browser’s request and then redirect you to a login page where you need to pay to access the network. But some systems of this nature are set up in such a way that images and other direct file requests seem to slip through without the redirect to the ...

Pewien niemiecki artysta postanowił publicznie wykonać 33-sekundowy utwór składający się wyłącznie z cytatów innych utworów audio. A konkretnie z cytatów z 70200 innych utworów. W świetle prawa autorskiego na użycie każdego z nich (jak “własność”, to “własność”) musi otrzymać licencję. Na szczęście dla niego, Niemcy mają swoje organizacje zarządzania prawami autorskimi, czyli swoje ZAiKSy, więc wystarczy zwrócić się do takiej organizacji o stosowną licencję wypełniając odpowiedni formularz. Po jednym na użyty fragment, czyli w sumie ...

Developerzy aplikacji użytkowych prześcigają się w kolejnych próbach przekształcenia znanych programów w oprogramowanie sieciowe. Wielu producentów za swój cel obiera sobie stworzenie funkcjonalnego edytora graficznego umożliwiającego obróbkę fotografii. Dotychczas, większość tego typu rozwiązań była jednak daleka od naszych oczekiwań. Nawet stworzony przez Adobe - Photoshop Express wydaje się mieć jedynie wspólną nazwę ze swoim uznanym kuzynem. Dzisiaj jednak przyjrzyjmy się aplikacji Pixlr, którą stworzył Ola Sevandersson - szwedzki developer internetowy. Pixlr w przeciwieństwie do swoich ...

Muxtape, one of our favorite ways to share playlists, has temporarily shut down due to unspecified pressures from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The company’s blog assures users that the shutdown is not permanent and Muxtape will eventually return. Muxtape is one of many services that offer streaming music from user-created playlists — you upload the MP3 files, and others can listen to them, but there’s no built-in way for anyone to download ...

Wczoraj niepopularny gbur, dziś mąż stanu na miarę Piłsudskiego - a wszystko dzięki jednemu przemówieniu. Eryk Misiewicz analizuje w “Dzienniku” metamorfozę, jaką na naszych oczach przechodzi właśnie Lech Kaczyński i pokazuje, w jaki sposób polityk, którego działania na arenie międzynarodowej jeszcze niedawno przypominały Polakom taniec słonia w składzie porcelany, nagle wyrósł na symbol polskiej racji stanu i wyraziciela nastrojów społecznych (kto nie wierzy, niech zajrzy choćby do niemoderowanej, więc na oko miarodajnej, dyskusji na Wykopie): ...

No one desktop is like the other. Some people tend to clutter their desktops rigorously, others prefer clear open space, and yet others enjoy it neat and nicely decorated. While my “hardware” desk tends to be somewhat cluttered and requires a thorough cleaning now and then, I belong to the last group when it comes to desktops. With no icons disfiguring my beautiful wallpapers, I’m a sucker for easy to access additional space for holding ...
