Jabber
Over at the Ubuntu forums they’re trying to make a big push for visitors to adopt Jabber. If you don’t know, Jabber is an free and open instant messaging standard. The benefits would be similar to how email operates now. You could use any client, have any address as your username, etc. If you have a Gmail account then you already have a Jabber name. You could use Google Talk or add it to your current IM client. If you don’t have one and would rather not use Google to get one, just go to Jabber.org to find various Jabber servers.
Searchmash and Ms. Dewey
Just wanted to share some search engines. I am (like many) a huge Google user. Recently though I learned about Searchmash. I really like the interface and I was told Google actually owns it.
Another one that is just for fun, Ms. Dewey. I believe it is just an experiment by Microsoft.
