My week on the web

Web browsers icons

Here are the websites I bookmarked into my del.icio.us account over the past seven days:

  • SilverStripe - Open Source CMS / Framework
    Simple. Flexible. Scalable. Fast. Standards Compliant. Modular. Template Freedom. Open source. Cross platform. Easy to install.
  • The XP alternative for Vista PCs
    'While Microsoft is still pushing Vista hard, the company is quietly allowing PC makers to offer a "downgrade" option to buyers that get machines with the new operating system but want to switch to Windows XP.'
  • How to clean your home in 19 minutes
    Fabulous - I thought, as I clicked through, only to realise that they meant '19 minutes A DAY'! Two hours and thirteen minutes every single bloody week. I think I'll start naming our dust bunnies instead, they are family now.
  • How to make a vertical, ergonomic keyboard
    The tie-fighter keyboard allows you type in a neutral, handshake position with your arms and shoulders supporting your hands. Very interesting concept, must see, hard to explain.
  • DailyLit: Read books by email and RSS.
    'DailyLit brings books [...] in convenient small messages that take less than 5 minutes to read. This works incredibly well not just on your computer but also on a Treo, Blackberry, Sidekick or whatever the PDA of your choice.' Email or RSS
