I'm sure you're familiar with the daily stress of a normal business day - balancing multiple projects, responding emails, sorting files, conversing over phone - while you're desperately trying to focus and achieve in a limited timeframe. Believe me, I can relate.
Freckle is a web service made for freelancers, consultants, and teams that work together on projects. It's a tool made to make ease of time tracking/logging - something that many of us really appreciate. Tracking time, whether it's billable or unbillable time can be a chore, we abhor it. But what if it was simple, fun, engaging, and helps with self and career improvement? Time tracking can be a big help in increasing your own productivity. After 18 months of going live: freckle has continued to innovate and deliver, and I dare say, some of it's features are even better than what's to be had at basecamp.
Check out freckle's tour and see if it's right for you.

@Posterous Today We Celebrate Our Independence Day!
read the full details at blog.posterous.com
Ok, not today but I just couldn't help but to quote the movie.
Just four days ago, Posterous released a very significant update that allows users to create/edit blog posts, and to manage their content assets (ie. photos). Funny that a blog service only has this now, shouldn't this be a fundamental core feature every blog needs? Not for Posterous.
Posterous shines as the 'easiest' blogging platform. Easy because it specializes in email blogging - compose an email, send to Posterous and you're done. Posterous then aggregates your post to all your other profiles online (ie. facebook, twitter, vimeo, youtube).
In other words, Posterous never needed a post editor on their site, it depended on email (or it's now obsolete and very basic 'Text Editor 1.0'). What they failed however was 'content asset management'. Before Post Editor 2.0 was released, there was no way of editing your photos, videos, and audio clips, or even check how much space you've used. Only via the official iPhone app 'PicPosterous' could one manage his own photos and videos. This wasn't the perfect solution.
With the previous launch of 'customizable themes' on Sept 16, 2009 and now 'Post Editor 2.0'. Posterous has indeed grown up to be feature independent. What will be next?
Thanks Garry, Sachin and team for the respect you've given to your loyal fan base over the years.

Arrived! Evangelion 1.11
My order of Evangelion 1.11 Special Edition blu-ray just arrived from Japan today. This is one of the two animes I watch and love. It's sheer masterpiece at the cost of RM80 with shipping.
This is basically a remake in HD of the popular mid-90's Neon Genesis Evangelion. Evangelion 2.0 is the latest and was shown at the cinemas a month back. It's not available on blu-ray yet.

It's Official: Monkey Island 2 Special Edition (Enhanced)
Monkey Island 2 is the mega-bomb of the series, it's the -very- definition of Monkey Island brand and (in my opinion) the best. The screenshot above: that's the new graphics (that's coming), click next to see the original and do a comparison.
The head bone's connected to the, hip bone...
