Secure RSS Syndication
Solution for making your own private RSS Syndication using bloglines, encryption and Greasemonkey.
The way you'd use this is to make an RSS feed that you can access from anywhere. Then encrypt it and use a Firefox script on Greasmonkey to decrypt it (at least thats the way I understand it). The cool thing about it is that you could throw it right on pages with all relevent information across the web. As soon as you updated it, it would reflect in your aggreggator.
I could see this being used for my many network passwords, but not my accounts. I'm a little to paranoid for that.

Whax How to (formerly known as whoppix)
The WHAX Live CD OS (formerly known as WHOPPIX) has a useful knowledgebase of growing information on how to use its very modular features.
I notice a few people coming to my blog to find tutorials on WHAX/Whoppix, but where you really want to go is here:
http://iwhax.net/modules/xoopsfaq/
If there is something you want to know just ask the WHAX gurus on their interactive site. The Whoppix webpage looked nice but the creators of this incredible tool made a briliant move in this new interactive, blog howto structure.
If you Whax guys read this, I suggest getting some trackbacks.
