This is a cool site that posts a picture of your face plus whatever you have in your pockets at the current time that you scan.  Great idea!

Things that are living in the pockets of your bag, jeans or jacket: travel and pay checks, old cigarette pack that just looks interesting, sugar lumps and all the stuff that has found home in your pockets. They are all the treasures our project is looking for! Our goal is not only bring all this objects into light but show the owner of them.

The process.

Place the objects on the scanner. Place your face/part of it on the scanner as well. Aaaaand scan it! Send us the picture you’ve got to:

This program is pretty cool. Especially if you are a last.fm user. It automatically fetches the ID3 tag data for your currently playing song and allows you to update the meta data in your song. Moretunes is a bit different than the MusicBrainz classic tagger, in that it does not require you to open the files in a separate application. Moretunes works in tandem with your music player and detects when the song changes.  It has a mini view that only shows the album cover as well as the full info view shown below.

How many times have you created a favicon.ico… Then time goes by and you need to create another one. I always seem to forget how I created it. Was it Photoshop? Some other program? Well no need to think about it. This site does it for you. Just upload your favicon file and it automatically resizes it for you. It creates the icon in a zip file that you can download.

This is a simple list of tips to keep in mind while developing websites. Some of them are common sense like learn from others and planning, and others are pretty helpful such as the IE Box Model Hack.

The difference between a good web designer and a great one is the ability to know how to take short cuts and save time without compromising the quality of work.

They have no idea of what the central bank does to the economy, or to their own economic lives; of how and why it was founded and operates; or of the sound money and banking that could end the statism, inflation, and business cycles that the Fed generates.

Dedicated to Murray N. Rothbard, steeped in American history and Austrian economics, and featuring Ron Paul, Joseph Salerno, Hans Hoppe, and Lew Rockwell, this extraordinary new film is the clearest, most compelling explanation ever offered of the Fed, and why curbing it must be our first priority.

Alan Greenspan is not, we’re told, happy about this 42-minute blockbuster. Watch it, and you’ll understand why. This is economics and history as they are meant to be: fascinating, informative, and motivating. This movie could change America
