DansData has some more letters. This addition covers Wind-up hybrid cars, power supply testing, STOP error hunting, detergent scams, and sex toys.

TechArp has posted this parody wish list for Christmas which should give you a laugh. "Number 10 - Friends: Don't all people have friends? Nope, not me. I assume it's because I'm too great a person and an altruist to boot. But of course, I get lonely sometimes. It's a hard job being as awesome as I am and sharing that aura with potential buddies."

PCStats has an interesting article about setting up your own FTP Server on Windows. "FTP is an easy way to transfer files over the Internet and in this guide PCSTATS will explain the basics of using it, and how to set up a home FTP server on WindowsXP."

This article delves into content protection in Windows Vista. "Windows Vista includes an extensive reworking of core OS elements in order to provide content protection for so-called "premium content", typically HD data from Blu-Ray and HD-DVD sources. Providing this protection incurs considerable costs in terms of system performance, system stability, technical support overhead, and hardware and software cost."

Also it seems that Microsoft is trying to patent RSS. ""The big mystery is what Microsoft is planning to do with the patents if they are awarded them. The sad state of patent affairs in the United States has led to several cases of Microsoft being sued for technologies they did arguably invent simply because some else owned a generic patent on them."

Yonas has sent in funny video of some guy impersonating 100 different characters in 5 minutes.

Pandora, an internet radio station is set to become more social with the addition of some new features.
