Mediamax is another online storage service. But this one is free, yes i know some of them offer a free limited service. But this one offers 25 GB of space for free! Pretty impressive indeed! Some of the features are batch uploading, batch downloading, backup, and file synchronization.

They do also offer a paid service, but you can sign up totally free ( no credit card required or anything) to the free service for your 25GB of space.

Now for the catch! The free space has one catch and that’s that you can only download or share 1GB per month and it has a filesize limit of 25 MB. Still not bad at all, depending on your needs and considering its free. If you want more you’ll have to get your wallet out.

If you need a program that will help track software bugs, you need to check out Bugzero.

Bugzero is a Web-based bug tracking tool but that is not just what it is used for it’s also a defect tracking, issue tracking, and change management system used in a distributed team environment to track software bugs, hardware defects, test cases, or any other issues.

But there is more to Bugzero than all that; it can also be used equally well as a helpdesk customer support, trouble ticketing, or email management system to collect and manage customer feedbacks, incidents, requests, and issues.

The new version, Bugzero 4.5.2 which just hit the market yesterday has these latest Changes:

• A new virus scan feature was added

So you’re wondering what Pamela for Skype is? Well, its a digital personal assistant for Skype. For example when you start a call on Skype it asks if you want to record the call. It then says “this call is not being recorded”, but that message can also be heard by the person you are talking too! So be careful!

It’s relatively easy to navigate, with a simple to understand interface. The message center is great as it allows you to see at a glance how many voicemails, skype voice mails, skype recordings, custom recordings or birthday notifications you have. It’s available in 4 versions, each with its own set of unique features, one version even supports Skype video.

Some of the features it adds to Skype include:

• Call Recording
• Video Recording
• Answering Machine
• VideoMail
• Emotion Sounds
• Auto Chat Reply
• Birthday Reminders
• Skype Status Change
• Chat Recording
• Email Forwarding
• Contact Personalization
• Auto Start Applications
• Skype Blogging
• Skype Podcasting

EverNote is note taking software, it’s also capable of recognizing digital ink (handwritten notes on a tablet) and multiple other formats, as well as images, emails, html, and supports custom templates.

It stores your notes, handwritten memos, ideas, brainstorms, etc. It stores them in chronological order and you can also create categories to help you better organise things. As well as this, it also has a powerful search function.

A cool, useful little feature I like is the ability to download a Firefox extension or Internet Explorer button at the homepage, so you can instantly select webpage text and “add to evernote”. It can also encrypt your notes for added security and peace of mind.

For the full list of features, which is pretty impressive for this neat little program,(spell checker, synchronisation, support for a wide range of pen tablets, drag and drop support, and more) check out the homepage here where it’s available in both free and pro versions.

Here is a good software for you to use to detect dead links and duplicates.

AM-DeadLink detects dead links and duplicates in your Browser Bookmarks. If a Bookmark has become unavailable you can delete it from your Browser. This software is really good. It checks Bookmarks from Internet Explorer, Opera, and Netscape. With AM-Deadlink you can also download FavIcons for all your Favorites and Bookmarks.

The truth is the software is not a hundred percent accurate it could declare some links as dead when they are still active but like I have observed it doesn’t happen often, you can be sure of a 98.5% accuracy, which is more than good enough.

A new version, AM-DeadLink 3.0, has just been released with these changes:

• Windows Vista: Flip3D, thumbnail preview and correct animations supported
• Windows Vista: Use “Segoe UI” as default font
• Windows Vista: Several controls could disappear when the ALT key was pressed
• Internal check technology completely rewritten (should fix several “mysterious” bugs)
• Save all Firefox FavIcons to disk (extract embedded FavIcons)
• Sort Bookmarks with FavIcons to the top of list (Bookmarks menu)
• Several user interface tweaks
• File+Open works also for Opera/Firefox/Mozilla
• AM-DeadLink could crash on exit when a anti virus software or a desktop search software blocked the configuration files
• Minor tweaks and fixes

Footnote is an impressive resource that allows users to access millions of historical documents online.

Interested in the Civil War or maybe the Bureau of Investigation? Just look it up on Footnote and in seconds view digitized copies of the original documents including photographs, signed documents, letters, case studies and more.

Footnote has also established a partnership with the National Archives providing access to millions of historical documents for viewing online. Around 4.5 million documents have already been added to the site and apparently millions more to come.

I’ll admit, I wasn’t one to raise my hand during history class, but it’s pretty neat being able to view transcripts that George Washington wrote back in 1775 for the Continental Congress and the signature of John Hancock.

I’d imagine Footnote to be a prime attraction for genealogists, historians, public libraries, school systems and history buffs in general. Check it out for yourself!
