CleanHaven Declutters, Formats, and Fixes Any Text You Paste In
"Windows/Mac/Linux: The email arrived with tab breaks everywhere, excess spacing, strange Word-conversion characters, and you just don't have time for this. CleanHaven is there, on any system, to fix the text any way you need it, whether it's human or computer error. Paste in whatever text you've got, then pick from the drop-down menus and sections up top what you need fixed. CleanHaven knows how to patch up capitalization and spelling errors, sure, but can also sort items in alphabetical or numerical order, strip out excess spaces or tabs, quickly repair broken email or HTML copies, and otherwise do the things you'd grumble about while doing manually. There's also a find-and-replace function that's pretty powerful, and analysis options for seeing the frequency of words and phrases."

UNIX: The Enlightenment’s Operating System » the billblog
"I choose Unix over anything else because I believe that the respect for the systems administrators, programmers and end-users that lies at the core of the Unix philosophy remains our best hope for creating computer systems that will promote and encourage free expression, liberalism and humanism. Unix is the operating system that most clearly expresses the values of the liberal enlightenment that form the basis of my own personal philosophy, and I will continue to use and support it."

DirSync Pro (Directory Synchronize Pro)
" small, but powerful utility for file and folder synchronization. DirSync Pro can be used to synchronize the content of one or many folders recursively. Using DirSync Pro you can make incremental backups. In this way you'll spare lots of time because you don't have to copy all the files each time you want to update your backup; only new/modified/larger files would be copied. Use DirSync Pro to easily synchronize files from your desktop PC to your USB-stick (PDA, Notebook, ...). Use this USB-stick (PDA, Notebook, ...) to synchronize files to another desktop PC. Unlike many other synchronization software, DirSync Pro is Open Source; it is 100% free of charge, 100% free of commercial text, 100% free of advertisements and 100% free of spyware. Programmed completely in platform independent Java so it can be run under nearly every modern operating system including Windows, Linux and Macintosh."

Windows 7, Mac OS X and Ubuntu: A Tale of Three Operating Systems | Technovia
"Anyone who tells you with absolute certainty which operating system is “the best” without knowing your individual needs is probably going to be wrong – and I include myself in this. The right choice for you may be Linux, or it may be Mac, or it may be Windows. Choosing is a complex dance between hardware needs, price, aesthetic preferences, application requirements, technical competence, and even “what my friends use”. I think the best piece of advice that I can give, though, is this: if you are considering switching platform, don’t expect “the other side” to be the land of milk and honey forever. Every computing platform has its pros and cons, and once the honeymoon period is over, you’ll run into them."

GNU Screen: an introduction and beginner's tutorial || kuro5hin.org
"a terminal multiplexer. Using it, you can run any number of console-based applications--interactive command shells, curses-based applications, text editors, etc.--within a single terminal. The desire to do this is what gets most people hooked on screen. I used to start a half-dozen terminal emulators when I logged into my machine: I wanted one to read my email, one to edit my code, one to compile my code, one for my newsreader, one for a shell into my web host, and so on. Now I start one terminal emulator, and run screen in it. Problem solved. The other main cool feature of screen is its ability to decouple the terminal emulator from the running programs. This means that you can use screen to keep programs running after you accidentally close the terminal emulator, or even after you log out, and later resume right where you were. It means that the idea of a "session" in which you are running a number of console programs is a free-floating entity that you can bind to any terminal"

The Cathedral and the Bazaar
a classic. abstract: "I anatomize a successful open-source project, fetchmail, that was run as a deliberate test of the surprising theories about software engineering suggested by the history of Linux. I discuss these theories in terms of two fundamentally different development styles, the ``cathedral'' model of most of the commercial world versus the ``bazaar'' model of the Linux world. I show that these models derive from opposing assumptions about the nature of the software-debugging task. I then make a sustained argument from the Linux experience for the proposition that ``Given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow'', suggest productive analogies with other self-correcting systems of selfish agents, and conclude with some exploration of the implications of this insight for the future of software."
