Five Scraps of Paper
Here are five suggestions, made to me by my friends, which I have carried around on slips of paper for a couple of months. I put them here just to remember them.
- SwapDrive - for sharing files over the internet
- Google Webmaster Tools - just what you think
- HandBrake - for converting my home movie DVDs to my iPod to show my mom
- Bones - get the complete first season DVDs
- The Third Man - watch it before going to Vienna
