Webby Goodness

Some days it seems as if the Wonderful Wide Web is full of extra goodness and goodies ... I have been muchly enjoying Gmail, Google Reader and RadioParadise. (Mental note - need to write up a post re: the RIAA royalty BS that is threatening to take away such lovely things as RadioParadise)

My newest most favoritest web site on all the intartubes is now LifeHacker.com. Why did I not know about this long ago? It is just chock full of informative tidbits, goodies, downloads and all-around geeky fun ... check the how-tos for this week alone:

• How to read your Hotmail from Gmail
• Make your brain learn faster
• Sound more intelligent
• Haggle your way to a great deal
• Create a stop-motion movie
• Copy TV shows to your iPod
• Clean your keyboard
• Sync your Greasemonkey scripts across computers
• Fix a non-booting iPod

Oh yeah ... a barrel full of monkeys for the geekiest of geeks. I have been playing with Texter ... much sweetness there. And I loves me some new Greasemonkey scripts too.

And then, I don't mean to brag, but .. oh yes I do! I have iScrybe! Squeee! Check it out!



Is that not awesome? It's just as sweet to play with as it looks in the video! Worth the wait? Well ... I signed up for this beta back in October. Many others have waited that long, or even longer. But yeah ... it was worth the wait. I have been transferring my school schedule into it and it's living up to its promise. I will be trying out the rest of the functions it has so far too.

I just found out that I was given another grant for school ... it's called the Smart Grant ... a new federal financial aid program for 3rd and 4th year students majoring in science, math, technology or engineering with a GPA of at least 3.0 from their first two years. Yes, I am a poor, impoverished, brainy geek ... and this grant effectively cuts the loans I will need from here on out to just about zip. Sweet.

And that's my Happy Crap for this week ... it's Spring Break. I am chillin' ... or trying to anyway. I'll be getting ramped back up this weekend ... the rest of my midterms are coming up. But for now, I am focusing on Good Things™ and trying to ignore all the scary, bad things as much as possible. I do what I can.
