Tangerine

An awesome little Mac App that analyzes your iTunes library, and allows you to create playlists based on the Beats Per Minute (BPM) in a song.

Now you may think this process would take a while, but it doesn't. It has taken about 15 minutes to analyze my library of 1210 tracks on my 2.0 Ghz Intel Core Duo MacBook with 512mb of RAM.

Right now, Tangerine is in Beta, so it is currently free. So if you want to pick up a copy hop on over to the Potion Factory, and download Tangerine.

My Top 'Must Have' Ad-ons for Firefox 2 RC 2

1. Adblock Plus - This is a must have extension for every Firefox user, but is not complete without...

2. Adblock Filterset.G Updater - This handy little extension automatically downloads the latest version of Filterset.G every 4-7 days. Filterset.G is an excellent set of filters maintained by G for Adblock that blocks most ads on the internet.

3. Foxmarks - This extension is great if you have Firefox on multiple computers. It stores your bookmarks on the Foxmarks server, and allows you to sync your bookmarks across multiple computers.

4. RTSE - The Rooster Teeth Site Extender, this is a must have for anyone that is an active member of the Rooster Teeth comunity.

5. Pinstripe for Firefox - If you are on a Mac, this is the theme for you. The theme still has a few rough edges, but is very usable, one of my favorites.

6. Aqua Firefox Set - This really isn't an extension or theme, but it is a must for any Mac user running Firefox. What it does is replaces Firefox's standard radio buttons, check boxes, ect. and makes them more 'Macish'. Even though it says it only works with Firefox 1.5.0.7 and above, it does work with Firefox 2 RC 2.

7. Nightly Tester Tools - This extension is great if you love to jump onto the newest versions of Firefox, that aren't the 'world standard'. Nightly Tester Tools, basically forces 'incompatible' extensions to work with the current build of Firefox you are running.

Those are my favorite Ad-ons for Firefox 2 RC 2. If you have any others that are worth checking out, feel free to leave a link to them in the comments!

Formatting is Fun!

No, not really. Anyway, on the topic of formatting, I just reformatted my Windows Box. Fun stuff.

So right now I am in the process of copying all of my data from my backup hard drive to my computer. Right now it is about halfway done, and has about an hour left. After that folder is copied I have two more to restore, but those are much smaller than this current one.

After all of my data is restored, I need to install about 50 Windows Updates, then I'll install my games. Hopefully I'll get it finished soon!
