Gom Player

Ok so I was just browsing the web…as I tend to do and I came accross this cool player caleld GOM

The site claims that it will play any format that you throw at it and it has many advanced features

…and let me tell you …the site does not lie …it played everythign I threw at it …

I tried all of these


  • WMV
  • Xvid
  • H.264
  • Mp4
  • Mp3
  • Avi(windows video)

as you can see it plays a lot also it has a bunch of really cool features too..including many skins
Check it out

Ok also one more thing…now I am only going to include small image with every post …but I will have a bunch of images for each app in my own hosted photo gallery at
Dlotd.gallery.net.tc so make sure to check there for tons of images

browse privately with Browzar

It has been all over the web…the new private browser Browzar
Browzar is basically a shell for IE , it is about 300k and is very cool looking (IMHO)

The basic idea is that it saves NOTHING no history, cookies , forms NOTHING so nothing that you did online has any evidence..

It is currently in beta (surprise surprise)  and comes in two colors … Silver or black

Some cool apps

One day I was chatting in irc On irc.hak5.org to a friend of mine Tom Bell    , we were talking about how windows xp has transparency built in…and  sobody said it would be cool if you could make use of it on ANY app and not just the ones that its available on ….Tom Bell is the lead developer of Nubuntu …a coder

He replied “I can do that” and he came back 20 minutes later with this:

The same day I was tring to drag things from one window into another and they kept loosing focus and covering each other…so I asked him to make an app that make a program stay on top of others…20 minutes …came this:

Finaly…I was tired of having to minimize all the apps on my screen to look at the clock…and all the clock apps I looed at were bloated and had a bunch of things I didnt need…so tom being a crazy coder as he is rose to the challenge once again and created this:

(zoomed for better visibility…actual size is about the size of the taskbar clock)

…from now on …I will be submitting my apps in this form …
