Amazing photos - all taken with a mobile phone

by Volker Weber

Heiko
Photo Heiko Hebig

Travel notes: Heiko is on vacation and he is shooting photos along the way, uploading them to Flickr. He is not carrying a camera though. Instead he is just using his mobile phone.

Google Gears beta for Safari

by Volker Weber

To get started, download the Google Gears package for Mac: Firefox or Safari.

by Volker Weber

Check out "C:\Documents and Settings\...\Local Settings\Temp\" and remove the 500 MB installer that Lotus Notes 8 leaves behind. How many employees does IBM have? 300,000? 150 Terabyte of wasted storage.
