Another social bookmarking system

de.lirio.us is social bookmarking system which allows to store and organize your bookmarks and describe them by key words aka tags. I use the similar system – del.icio.us for an year and I like it. de.lirio.us seems less handy than del.icio.us. But maybe I just got used to it 🙂 Anyway, you can find useful de.lirio.us plugin for Firefox. It allows to add new page […]

Spam Karma 2 in action

The big number of spam comments in my Nucleus blog was the last straw to move to WordPress. WordPress has an effective mechanism to filter spam: approval comments or permit to add comment only for registered users. Also, there are existing different plugins for this purpose.

Selection of Instant Messenger for Linux

After trying licq, gaim and kopete I decided to use sim – just another IM for KDE. It has pretty good user interface, supports UTF-8, allows to define encoding for each person in the contact list.

Yandex – найдется все!

Вслед за Google, предоставляющим программу для локального поиска на компьютере, Yandex (русский Google без преувеличения) тоже анонсировал подобное приложение для ПК – Персональный поиск Яндекса. Фирменная фишка Yandex – поиск с учетов морфологии русского языка присутствует и здесь. Так что по крайней мере одно преимущество перед Google Desktop уже налицо! Вообще, на мой взгляд Yandex в рунете просто вне конкуренции. Это и онлайн словари, и […]
