This week’s news flash is a very cool project I decided to pursue this morning-so here’s the scoop. We’ve had this problem concerning a bunch of TV shows we taped in the states in MPEG1 format just laying around on a computer, with no easy or convenient way to watch them. So this morning when I looked at this old 850MHz computer I had laying around, I thought to myself, “This would make one heck of a media center.” So, having absolutely nothing to do with my day, I set off to work.

I haven’t done updates to the site in a long time.  The current project is the school’s newspaper-ish thing, The Bubble, which will be released tomorrow.  I’ve also got a cool Windoze hack for you soon…stay tuned.  Sorry, school has kept me busy and friends have kept me busier.

A special announcement on behalf of someone who reminded me my site hadn’t been updated.

Consider it my Christmas present to anyone who uses this site. Wanna know how it works? First here are the terms:

  1. Don’t abuse it. This means no spam, hatemail, or any other forms of communication that just aren’t very nice. Your account would be deleted without notice. That means you can’t sue me.
  2. The username must be longer than 5 characters and shorter than 20 characters. No profanity, please.

Short terms, eh? Also, nab a cool address. Don’t just be bob@dustinsoftware.com, but something sweet like ceo@dustinsoftware.com or lolcrackers@dustinsoftware.com. It’s not a requirement, just style points. The service is proudly powered by GMail, so it’s the same friendly interface, only cooler. When you register, I’ll send you a temporary username and password which you are required to change when you log in. That way I can’t read your stuff. It’s also pretty secure, too!

SIGN ME UP!

Essentially it’s an ALT+TAB hack just like Vista’s, except designed for XP! It works quite nicely, although I’ve got it set on the default WindowKey+TAB so if I need to switch while running a 3D application, it won’t lock my computer up. Here’s what it looks like:

It’s called WinFlip, BTW.

Update: I compiled some of the updated files together so it’s much more stable now, although still beta. To download it, just click wflip0421.zip. And don’t worry, last time I checked it contained no malware. ^^
