new toys.

I have two new toys that I discovered today while randomly surfing the net.

(1) Google Desktop

It's so cool! It's way better than Konfabulator (which I'm still using for its calandar), and it's got loads of functions like a search bar, newsfeeds, updates, notepad, to-do list ... and email feed if you're using gmail. It indexes all your files and you can search them and stuff as well. I'm still exploring, and so far it looks fabulous. Plus it doesn't take up much physical memory like Konfabulator does (e.g. I run 3 widgets and my lappy starts to cough and splutter, while here I'm running the equivalant of 7 widgets and I still have lots of RAM to play with).

It's FUNKAY!

(2)Flickr photos

This is a really awesome photo-sharing website. There's a new flash button linky thing that I've put on the sidebar of my blog, you're welcome to pop by. Either click on the sidebar thingy or go to: http://www.flickr.com/photos/chellespics. And by the way, the photos from my 18th are up there, so you now have added incentive to go have a squiz.
