InfraRecorder 0.46.1

I haven’t touched Nero Burning ROM anymore since I discovered InfraRecorder. Oh and since Nero started pumping their installers to 370 mb. InfraRecorder is just that: a free CD/DVD burning solution for Microsoft Windows. It offers a wide range of powerful features; all through an easy to use application interface and Windows Explorer integration. InfraRecorder is released under GPL version 3, free and open source. Highly recommended!

The new Hotmail look

For all kinds of subscriptions to mailings lists, newsletters and such, I still use my old @hotmail.com mail address, besides my Gmail and my @zzillezz.net addresses. I’ve noticed that Microsoft has started to deploy their new look to certain accounts, but mine hasn’t changed as of yet. From what I’ve seen, it’s an improvement. And it’s actually faster, less cluttered and easier to read. Just as they said it would be! And coming from Microsoft, that’s errr, weird.

RIP Zanna

As unbelievable as it may seem, Zanna got hit by a car yesterday or the day before. Only three weeks after Cezaar. She was carrying little kittens due any day now. If I find the person responsible for this, I will personally kick out all of his teeth with my bare hands. Fucking drive slower and more carefully !
