Homo-Adminus Blog

Was really surprised today when heard really funny rap song about “kill -9″ Unix command:

• Video is here.
• Lyrics is here.
• Audio record is here.

Funny thing for admins from admins: Hot-Babe!

A small graphical utility which displays the system activity in a very special way. When the CPU is idle, it displays a dressed girl, and when the activity goes up, as the temperature increases, the girl begins to undress, to finish totally naked when the system activity reaches 100%.

There is even Windows port for Windows admins.

Today, 3 March 2006, my friend Dmytro Shteflyuk and I have started new Web 2.0 startup, which is the best possible Web 2.0 startup in the world according to Web 2.0 Validator from 30 Second Rule.

You can check described result by testing our startup in Web 2.0 validator (if it will show error message, simply try again - it looks like it is overloaded now).

We think, this startup would be the most creative and innovative startup of this year, So, venture capital is welcome!

P.S. Because URL http://kpumuk.info/samples/web2_0/ was blocked by validator authors, page has been moved to http://kpumuk.info/wp-content/web2_0.

Some guy installed 100 very popular extensions on Firefox to stress test it! He says it did pretty well under the load - includes screenshots.

P.S. In some of the next posts in this blog I will describe my set of favorite FF plugins and my favorite web tools.
