SongBird : no more itunes + limewire …

   Bird flipping through records

Like iTunes, Songbird has a mini-player which unlike iTunes, mini-player, looks great. Songbird has a lot going for it, but they still need to incorporate some key features that this preview leaves out. Things like an equalizer are absent in this preview. Once sufficient devices support, including iPod support, makes it into Songbird, Apple may need to watch their back - everyone loves the little open source app that makes it big, *cough* Firefox. Songbird may very well be THE music player/manager for all Linux users, beating out Amarok and RhthymBox. The preview released today is a “proof-of-concept” distribution, so it was only available for Windows. There is, however, a strong possibility of Songbird being released on Linux and Mac in the near future. I hope to hear more about Songbird in the future. Download the preview (from yousendit because Songbird’s server is down) and let me know what you think.

Sick of pulling your hair out over this error? OK folks the fix is easy and the short answer is, this is a standards compliance and implementation issue. The fast fix is, use Flock. Flock is a new version of the FireFox/Netscape web browser and it’s designed for use with Web 2.0.

Create Separate User Profiles in Google Chrome

The Digital Inspiration blog points out that new-browser-on-the-block Google Chrome shares one thing with Firefox 3 not mentioned in many press reports—a history-aware address bar, or “Awesome Bar,” that can create some red-faced moments on a shared computer. If more than one person on your system is switching to Chrome, and you don’t feel like staying in Incognito Mode all the time, creating a new profile in Chrome requires manually creating a folder in Chrome’s application data folder, but that’s all there is to it. Vista and XP users, hit the link below for help finding your Chrome profiles folder, and then creating a custom shortcut to launch your own Chrome without leaving tracks behind on others.

Back to School Gadgets for Students…

Summer has gone fast hasn’t it? Hard to believe that many of you will be heading back to school sometime in the next few weeks. That means it’s time to get on a schedule and prepare yourself for another semester of boring lectures, homework and tests. Sure, there is a lot of fun to be had—but the party is going to come to a screeching halt when you get out there into the real world. That’s why you have to apply yourself now so you can get a good job when all is said and done. Either that, or you have to learn how to cut corners more effectively. Since this is the Thank Giz It’s Friday roundup, we are going with the latter.
