This weeks tip:
Freeware download meter:
For the people fed up with having to do things like buy DU Meter, this is a freeware way of seeing how much bandwith and speed you are really using up with your internet. The good parts of this one include a estimate of what you will use that month, good for staying under your cap or download limit!
DailyDIY to the rescue again!


Video of the week:
SWIM
To be honest, I have no idea how to describe this video.
It's a very well put together 3D and musical piece that explores life and its creation..
Go watch on youtube
