It’s all about individual needs and/or preferences.

I installed the Web Developer add-on in Firefox on one of my computers I use at work. I think this one may add some value to my web environment. Following recommendation from Mozilla site, I also installed Yoono but uninstalled it shortly afterwards. It tried to do too much for me.

The MORRIS bookmarklets can now have Libcat equivalents, e.g.


Keyword(s) Anywhere on Libcat


The bookmarklet does not work here because the wordpress site renders it distorted.

I played Zuma a few times online and was gettinq higher scores each time, as if there was no limit to the progress! The Zuma Deluxe download offer was tempting but futile.

I tried a few other games too. I could play more and longer, if I only could afford…

You must learn to like (if you don’t) the easy registration, client downloading, login, ads..

• I visited the Wetpaint site at http://digitalreferenceshelf.wetpaint.com/ after some time again and tried a few new exercises on it. I added a comment to the McMaster subpage and then tried to change the heading of the comment. That did not seem to be possible. So, I added a comment question to get others comment on the experience. So far no comments on the comments…

• I also visited the PBWiki site at http://myfavouritebooks.pbwiki.com/ again and tried new exercises on it too. Comments can easily be removed. Can they also be edited? I left this for others to try (see my added task at http://myfavouritebooks.pbwiki.com/Some-things-to-try-on-PBwiki)

 At http://www.myspace.com/ they, said “Cool New Videos” and  “46,059 uploaded today”.  Well,  I uploaded too.  I guess I upped the number and made someone (the counter?) happy. I wonder how many of the 46,058 others got happy too?

I am not sure if http://www.myspace.com/ is entirely my space.  You do not have to look much around there to know that you will find something for that’s right you, but before you do you may have to see what you might have never wanted to. One thing is sure, time will pass away anyway…

Amazing applications, all great, and all within the category of “yet another..”: “lightweight”, “simple”, “really simple”, allowing this or that. Very valuable if you have nothing on your computer (no applications, not even the free ones), only an operating system, a web browser, and a good network connection. 

 What about yet another (web?) application: an account manager for all the accounts opened on the way?

 What about “the other…”, a heavy weight one?
