Micro Persuasion: Google Adds Usenet Atom Feeds

Micro Persuasion: Google Adds Usenet Atom Feeds

Topix.net Weblog: The Secret Source of Google's Power
The Secret Source of Google's Power Much is being written about Gmail, Google's new free webmail system. There's something deeper to learn about Google from this product than the initial reaction to the product features, however. Ignore for a moment the observations about Google leapfrogging their competitors with more user value and a new feature or two.

The Free Software Definition - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation (FSF)
Free software is a matter of the users' freedom to run, copy, distribute, study, change and improve the software. More precisely, it refers to four kinds of freedom, for the users of the software: * The freedom to run the program, for any purpose (freedom 0). * The freedom to study how the program works, and adapt it to your needs (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a precondition for this. * The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor (freedom 2). * The freedom to improve the program, and release your improvements to the public, so that the whole community benefits (freedom 3). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.

TEsttando SL #2 - Edição de Som

O Rezound é um bom editor de som. Pra captação, alguns ajustes, efeitos básicos. me lembra o Multiquencer e um outro que não lembro o nome. Exporta pra MP3 e Ogg. TerminatorX é um brinquedinho interessante. É um Live-Dj em completo. Seleciona-se os sources e dá pra concatená-los, mudando o pitch e adicionando alguns efeitos. Dá pra brincar de scratch com o mouse.
