Program that runs my life
-Senuti-

its probably already common knowledge, but the program senuti is pretty cool because it allows you to transfer music from your (or someone else's) iPod to your computer.

This is perfect for if your computer crashes (or if you just want your friends music) and hasnt been possible with iTunes since iTunes 2 and these beasts.. good ole times.

seriously!

a few. fratmusic.com. its being reworked currently, but if you need a quick party playlist, this is a good start. ignore the douchey, bro-y comments/names.

mixmatters.com- a place to get some new hip hop before it is released to the rest of the world.

refworks.com.

u might need a subscription, but most schools have it. build bibliographies with like zero hassle. you can even export citations to a specific folder, which cuts bibiography building time to minutes

and for all those business nerds out there like me:

wsj.com for all your business news. seriously, no finer source of news on the planet, I swear by it. no fox news or CNN bullshit. just the facts.

and

It's basically the same thing as Seeqpod before it got disabled/the download option was removed. It works in a lot of places that have web filters.

I tried this site and it's been at least 12 hours since I have done it but I still haven't received the text. Is it working worlwide? And also, I took the song from a file in my computer and not in my iTunes, does it matter?

Conversion Table
Extremely helpful with conversions.

senduit
This is nice if you don't want to sign up for anything but need to get a file to someone. Just upload your file, set how long you want the file to remain "active" and then give the download link to your friend. In a set amount of time the file will expire thus you don't have to worry about it.

Ya there is a directory of a Bunch of good flash games on this site, from Fancy Pants to Helicopter.

When you browse for your song, and press enter, a pop up should come on your screen. There is an advertisement on it but don't X out. Let it go for a bit then more instruction will follow
