Photo Sharing Services

ConsumerSearch has posted my update to their report on photo-sharing services. In short, Google's Picasa Web Albums probably works best for you cheapskates out there, as it is the simplest and most integrated way to organize, upload, and share your photos--plus it's free.

Other Lightweight GNU/Linux Distros

Anyone considering using GNU/Linux is immediately struck by the dizzying array of “distros” available. This thread over at the Ubuntu forums has an excellent starting list of lightweight distros worth considering, but many of them are very barebones, outdated, potentially unstable, or simply don’t work as well as one might hope. I narrowed my own list down by applying seven basic standards that any distro I use must meet, as described in this post.

A comparison of four window managers

These all happen to be "lightweight" window managers at that. The author prefers openbox and pekwm.

ISO Master

I highly recommend this utility. After messing around with Kiso and Acetone for a while and failing to get either to work consistently, I turned to ISO Master. Works like a charm.

Puppy Linux 4.00 is barking up the right tree

This is the best of the several Puppy Linux reviews I've read. Puppy Linux is in the running for being the best lightweight linux distro out there. My brother swears by it and uses it as his primary OS.
