Just came acros a Dilbert that I like to share:

Enjoy your weekend!

Today I installed 2 open source tools: SmartCVS and SmartSynchronize. SmartCVS is an innovative CVS client that replaced my old winCVS.

SmartSynchronize is a file/directory compare and merge tool. It can help you, for example, to synchronize two directories. Very useful , it replaced a commercial product: Araxis Merge

Major Features of SmartSynchronize 1.5

* works on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, OS/2 and other Java 1.4.1-supporting platforms,
* very easy to use,
* file compare with possibility to edit and merge,
* file compare with detection of inner-line changes,
* directory compare with ability to synchronize changes,
* configuration of ignored files and directories,
* ability to store and reopen profiles (directory-pairs)

There is also a nice flashmovie demo of SmartSynchronize.

Today I installed the brand-new *shiney shiney* WordPress 2.0. I really enjoyed the Famous 5 minutes install, it’s bliss. And I must say, the end result is also impressive. WP 2.0 is a major improvement for usability and looks.. A little bit of Ajax, nice new editor and lots more that I haven’t discovered yet.

I received lots of comment SPAM lately. Since I don’t really enjoy reading fake comments I installed a plugin with Captcha possibilities. Very nice, I am looking forward to receive no SPAM comments at all from this moment on.

The plugin itself is almost 1 year old, so I had to alter the scripts a little bit. Instructions are mentioned in the comments on the plugin page (below).
