Marxio Timer….The End-All-Be-All of multifunction timers for Windows
Looks like I’ve been neglecting Windows apps for a while. So here is a neat free (donationware) application……Marxio Timer .

JetBytes: On-the-fly file transfer……
Neat idea…..You all know about sites where you can upload a large file, for your friends to download. It’s simple, but what if you don’t want to store the file somewhere. It suddenly gets a bit harder, right. Now you need to bring up that FTP/SSH server, create userid’s, open firewall, forward ports, etc. You…
