Microsoft is inviting people who want to test their new beta released, Vista Beta 2. Windows Vista which will available in early 2007 is currently looking for any volunteer who want to try Vista Beta 2 and give comments to improve it’s performance.

But before you decide want to dowload Vista Beta 2, make sure your computer is able to run it. Or you have to wait 10 minutes just to boot it up.

System Requirements

• A modern processor (at least 800MHz1)
• 512 MB of system memory
• A graphics processor that is DirectX 9 capable

I love it’s interface. Reall love it. But it use too much memory, 512Mb RAM. WindowsXP minimum requirement is only 256Mb. Maybe the next Microsoft OS will use 1.2Gb of RAM.

What software do you use to read RSS Feed? I personally use FeedReader. FeedReader is a freeware which you can use to subscribe and read RSS feeds. It is easy to use and manage. You can download it for free here: Download FeedReader

How to use it?
FeedReader is easy to use. All you have to do is, go to the website that you want to subscribe and find it’s RSS link. Usually the link marked with one of these icons:

After you found the link, copy the link (not the image link) and paste it in Add Feed (File > New > Feed) box. Then click Ok. FeedReader will start searching for the site’s feed. If the feed is found, FeedReader will display RSS feed from the site that you subscribed.

Do you have an example?
Ok, for an example, copy my site’s RSS feed link below and paste it in the Add Feed box. Then click OK. After awhile, you will get my site’s feed in your FeedReader. It’s simple. Copy and paste.

On December 2005, I have wrote about Opera 8 - The Fastest Browser on Earth. After half year has past, Opera still hold the title. This site has performed web browser speed tests on 3 platforms (Linux, Mac and Windows) and almost all the tests won by Opera.

But from my opinion, Opera is good in speed but it doesn’t support some scripts and site layout on the net. For example, some sites that I open with Opera, the site’s layout change and the site does not look like a site anymore. But this does not happen in Firefox and IE perhaps.

Want to make your own USB Flash Drive with your unique company/personal logo on it? CustomUSB offer a service where you can make your own USB flash drive with low price. It is a good opportunity for any organizations or companies to promote themselves. And even if schools or universities want to make a big event, they can promote it by giving the flash drive as door-gifts (I don’t think so ).

CustomUSB offer up to 16Gb of storage for flash disk and for external disk they offer up to 500Gb. 500Gb? Hmm…what you will do with 500Gb space anyway? Well I think this is another great way to promote events or organizations.
