On a regular basis, we at OStatic round up our collections of open source resources, tutorials, reviews and project tours. These educational toolkits are a big part of the learning mission we try to preserve at the site. We regularly collect the best Firefox extensions, free online books on open source topics, free tools for developers, resources for working with and enjoying online video and audio, Linux tutorials, and much more. In this post, you'll find an updated set of more than 50 useful open source resources. Hopefully, you'll find something to learn from here, and the good news is that everything found in this post is free.
Are you increasingly using public Wi-Fi hotspots? If you are, you're in good company, as many more people use public Wi-Fi for work and play. Airports, coffee shops, hotel lobbies, conference centers and many more types of locations are Wi-Fi enabled. Many hotspot hotspot users, though, don't take the right steps to secure their sessions. In this post, you'll find six tips and applications--including both open source and freeware offerings--that you can use to lock down your sessions.
Is open source finally making sense to Microsoft? Jeremy LaCroix sees a number of reasons to believe so. He notes that within only six months, the company has contributed 20,000 lines of code to the Linux community, given away countless copies of Windows 7, launched its CodePlex foundation, and announced that it is opening up the .PST data format behind Microsoft Outlook. I think it will be a long time before Microsoft fully wakes up to the benefits of open source, but some divisions hear the call, and more will over time.

Firefox 3.5 has been great but more than half my Firefox plug-ins are broken! Add-Ons like Alexa sparky and Google desktop search haven't been working since I installed v 3.5 about a week ago. At first I thought it was simply a matter of time before Alexa, Google and others updated them and today when I went to the Firefox add-on site - I found out that they already have versions that are compatible with 3.5!!
I've gone in and uninstalled the old versions and added the new versions but HAS to be an easier/automated way to do this! Is it something I'm missing??
I have installed chrome last week.. It was working fine at that time. There was a torjan/virus infection on my winlogon.exe recently and I realized this when I have to start my computer two times, in order to succesffully login to the system.. Anyway AVG antivirus has found and cleaned the virus. I made a full system search with it and also used Spyware Doctor for a possible spyware infection too.. Now as far as I see there is nothing in the system.. However chrome started to not work on any site giving the error belows. iexplorer and firefox seems to be working on some basic sites and for some others giving "Content Encoding Error".(Eventhough I have reinstalled them)
Chrom is giving (net::ERR_FAILED): for all sites... I don't want to reinstall whole system just for this strange situation. any suggestions?
I noticed that sometimes a cached object doesn't show up in the Net tab that it was loaded and other times it shows up as a HTTP 304 response. Does anyone know what causes the difference between the two?
