A couple friends had recommended Farscape to me (since I loved Firefly so much) so I started watching it last week. The first couple episodes just seemed weird to me but after I got used to the puppet aliens I fell in love with this show. I've watched quite a bit of so far as I'm already nearly done season 2. I've been trying to watch Enterprise lately but it has got to the point that if I want to fall asleep I just watch an episode of Enterprise. Anyways, haven't been doing to much development at home which is all to blame on Farscape.

I used to use The Gimp for windows for my graphical needs at work but since Paint .NET it has been uninstalled. I love Paint.NET so far. For the average person who just wants to resize, rotate, or make minor changes to a picture this is the program to use. And it's free.

Google just started a new service called Google SMS so you can send messages like "d cow" and google will respond with the definition of cow to your phone all using SMS. It's not available in Canada yet but it sounds like it will be pretty nifty.

2nd, GmailFS for windows finally came out. It's pretty nice. I gave this a try at home and it worked very slick. Google will probably prevent stuff like this in the future but for now it's kind of cool to have tools like this.

A new version of the gmail notifier came out today. They changed the icon to a letter in the system tray and added some additional options for which browser to open. Besides that it's pretty much the same.
There were also some new features added like an atom feed but my account still hasn't got this change.
