Why you need a Linux live CD at Lifehacker–I agree and suggest Ubuntu.

Just started taking Mozy for a spin–it’s a free online backup service that gives 2GB of space to store your files. Unfortunatly it’s for Windows XP only for now.

Bill Gates demonstrates how to efectively kill a presentation with information overload. Writers Block Live says,

I think this applies to a broader audiance than just corporate bloggers.
