Clickster – superb music machine

Robert Palmer’s Clickster is a superb free music player, MP3 music download client and Shoutcast stream recorder in one small package. What makes it different, and really interesting, is the fact that it searches and downloads music from the Web, not via P2P or any other type of sharing network. The result is that it’s very very fast, you can play music tracks directly from their location without downloading if you want, and Robert says because it’s not file sharing in the traditional sense, it’s legit….

Moka5 – infinite computers in your pocket

I’ve been playing with the new Moka 5 virtualisation software and it’s pretty cool. They call it ‘freedom computing’, but what they really mean is that you can install a Moka 5 ‘virtual’ computer to your iPod or USB drive, PC or whatever and then download and install any of a growing number of computer environments (called LivePCs) which are like small operating systems in a box. So for instance you can install the basic LivePC engine on a USB pen drive and then install Ubuntu or…
