Army of Earth 0.519 Beta

noreply@blogger.com (Joe Cole) — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 15:01:00 +0000

Army of Earth is an online action/strategy team combat game, allowing hundreds of players and up to 6 teams to play together in an open, outdoor 3D environment. It is easy to learn and use, with mouse-based controls, yet provides deep gameplay. It is a TEAM game and mastery will require not only team strategic thinking but also leadership skills.

It is fully 3D, but has very modest graphics requirements; it should run fine on the majority of laptops. Gameplay is drop-in/drop-out, so there is no waiting for players. Built-in lobbies provide convenient matchmaking, and ranked games are tracked in the Elo-based leaderboard. The maps are created procedurally, which means they never repeat, the download is small, and there are no loading delays. The game has low bandwidth requirements and is also latency-tolerant.

This is an online-only game; there is no single-player component. Bots are used to fill out the game while the player-base grows. Please get involved and join our community!

Army of Earth is now in Open Beta and will be free to play throughout the Beta period.

Key Launch 1.82

noreply@blogger.com (Joe Cole) — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 12:13:00 +0000

Forget your start menu and the icons on your desktop - launch programs and documents from your keyboard, with just a few keystrokes, by typing abbreviations. Just type a few letters of what you are looking for and Key Launch finds it - enter e.g. ´calc´ to open the ´calculator´.

You can add aliases, e.g. you can define that "w" means "Microsoft Word", and from now on, you can simply hit Ctrl+Q, then ´w´ and enter to open MS Word, it´s much faster than browsing through your start menu.

noreply@blogger.com (Joe Cole) — Sat, 31 May 2008 17:37:00 +0000

Ninja is the freeware zero-configuration program designed for guarding computers against viruses transmitted by USB pendisks.

This ninja awaits quietly in the system tray for the times whenever a USB pendisk is inserted on the computer which will be examined to uncover the commonly malicious or virulent files known as “autorun.inf” and “ctfmon.exe” amongst many others.

To keep things simple, ninja is fully portable, self-contained and requires no installation.

Besides removing known virulent files, this tool will also immunize your pendisk and create a folder called autorun.inf with special protection permissions to protect your pendisk from being infected again when plugged on contaminated computers.
