The WinSCP program (for Windows users) is a great alternative FTP client you should really try out.  Totally open source, this program makes it safe when copying files between a local and remote computer.

I really like it when any FTP program can give me better integration with my operating system, and WinSCP does do that [...]

Now you can often hear me singing the praises of Paint.net, because it is an awesome free alternative to some of the most expensive photo and graphic editors out there.  Another good one you should try is Photobie.  It is a free download for photo editing, scrapbooking, animation, screen capturing and more.
Here is a [...]

Free file sharing sites are a dime a dozen out there, however every so often one catches my eye.  S4ve.as allows you to upload any tile of any size for free and get a link back to it that remains good for 24 hours.  So if you need to quickly send a big file [...]

There is no doubt that I am a big Nintendo fan boy.  Well, I might not have a life-sized sculpture of Mario made out of mashed potatoes sitting in the corner of my office (or do I?) but I do like creating desktop icons from my favorite Nintendo characters.

Site features include:

Free uploading.
No bandwidth limits.

He might not be everybody’s favorite new Punch-Out character.  Love the Disco Kid or hate him, you do have to agree with me it is always fun to give him a glove to the mouth via Punch-Out for the Wii.  To match up with my previous Punch-Out desktop icons, I thought I’d toss him into [...]

The Easy Musicplayer For Flash, or otherwise known as EMFF, is in my opinion easily the best free audio player, built in flash.  I have been using it to provide a player on up to six of my latest shows on webhostingshow.com.
What makes it so cool?  Well, for one, it does not take a college [...]

It is no secret that I am a huge fan of anything that has the Legend of Zelda slapped across it.  With that said, some people asked after my first Link icon, why did I stop there?  Well, that is a good question, that now has an answer.
