I have been utilizing Box.net service since around 1 year. The service is unique, although of the existence of other alternates but the reliability of this service & the continuous update to their offerings has gained attention & I really expect they will be enhancing the service to beat their competitors.

Some main advantages for this service are:

1. Ads-Free
2. Free 1 GB (If you invite 10 people, you will get an upgrade for free to 5GB account).
3. Blogs Support (WordPress, LiveJournal, TypePad and Blogger.com). This can be done using the “TO BLOG” option. Audio files will be embedded within a flash player, photos will display a thumbnail, and Other files can have a direct download link.
4. Java Uploader Window: Only drage and drop the files to the window & the file will be uploaded. You can give tags to the file & place it in its appropriate folder.
5. Tags support, which makes searching so easy.
6. Many other options like having files privilege & sub-users.
7. The ability to share files or folders.
8. The ability to use lite version which uploads any file quickly & give you the HTML code to use for viewing thumbnail or icon.

As crazy and scary as it sounds, it’s true! Sam Ramjii, Director of Microsoft’s Open Source Software Lab, has extended an invitation to the Firefox and Thunderbird developers asking them if they’d like to visit the company’s open source research center. Microsoft’s hopes are that, in a four-day span, the company can provide the open source developers with enough information to get the popular web browser running smoothly on Windows Vista.

Last Saturday, Ramjii posted a message in the newsgroup “mozilla.dev.planning” asking Mozilla’s Mike Schroepfer and any other Firefox developers if they’d be interested in visiting the Windows Vista Readiness ISV Lab. Ramjii said that he’s made a special exception for the Mozilla team since this isn’t how the lab invitations normally work.

Billed as the smallest dice in the world, each one measures 0.3 x 0.3 x 0.3 mm (for perspective, see the photo above showing one of the die next to a 0.5-mm diameter mechanical pencil lead). The tiny dice are painstakingly crafted one by one from BsBm (brass) in a 9 hour long fabrication process that relies on the latest in micromachining technology. Each one weighs 0.00016 grams and the pips measure 0.05 mm in diameter. While the 100,275 yen (US$870) price tag includes a special case and the cost of shipping, it does not include the price of the microscope you will need to make sure nobody cheats at the craps table in your flea circus casino.

Take a look at this video game, which I have customized to view Amman Map starting from “King Hussein Sports City” area. The game shows a plane where the player can go up, down, left, and right using the arrows. (Down Arrow to raise the height of the plane, Up Arrow to lower it down)
It will show a virtual tour over Amman.
Please be careful before pulling down so low, as the plane will crash.

Click this link to start the game. Press the START button to start. Please don’t change the city selection, as another city will load.

Note: This game needs a reasonably fast Internet connection. (Above 128 Kbps)
