Since Xtorrent is not free anymore (20€), what Torrent client can we use on OSX?

Is this the best choice???
bitrocket.

This is my choice (interface is good and functionality are quite the same as xtorrent). I’m still looking for a torrent client that let me download a single file inside a shared folder (like mtorrent for windows is capable to do).

34 Reasons Why People Unsubscribe from RSS feeds:

Too many posts - 37
(that’s a real problem.. and that’s why I unsubscribed blogs like gizmodo)

Infrequent Posting (or the blog is dead) - 29
(That’s not a problem for me: In google reader I don’t even see the blogs with no posting)

Partial Excerpts Feeds - 25
(That’s HUGE problem about feeds. I also hate the feed without no images that quickly tell me what is the post about)

Too many posts that I see elsewhere (Redundant, Repeated or Recycled News) - 19
(Hate that too.. But I’m used about that. Isn’t there some coder that wanna try to fix this problem? Maybe implementing some “reduntants news” finding and merging?)

It’s called launchy (and It’s not really Quicksilver, but only a clone). Take a look if you wanna copy “quicksilver working style”. But what is Launchy?

Launchy is a free windows utility designed to help you forget about your start menu, the icons on your desktop, and even your file manager.

Launchy indexes the programs in your start menu and can launch your documents, project files, folders, and bookmarks with just a few keystrokes! Josh Karlin

Simply click the mouse to shoot a wire straight towards the mouse pointer. If close enough to a colored surface, it will adhere to it temporarily and yank you toward it from the elasticity of the string. You can have two wires in use simultaneously, hence the name of the game. Use them to keep moving forward because the game window doesn’t stop scrolling. If you go too far outside the game window (in any direction) the game ends.

Sorry for NOT italian readers.

Sì, l’avete ucciso voi. Con le vostre firme, con le vostre petizioni. L’avete ucciso voi l’autista del giornalista Mastrogiacomo rapito. Una condanna a morte ovvia.

Beppe Grillo scrive:
Quando si è saputo che è stato ucciso l’autista di Mastrogiacomo abbiamo tirato un sospiro di sollievo, temevamo il peggio. Ma si trattava, fortunatamente, solo dell’autista. Permettere che un nostro giornalista stia in Afghanistan mentre è in corso una nostra guerra, con il nostro esercito e le nostre armi. Beh, vuol dire andarsela a cercare. Se fossi un talebano lo rapirei subito. E’ un piccolo investimento con un grande ritorno mediatico.

Sono d’accordo con Grillo. Ma quanto ci vuole a capire che i riscatti non vanno pagati? Che per ogni rapimento / riscatto andato a buon fine ce ne saranno altri ed altri ancora? Ma quanto ci vuole a capire che appelli, raccolta firme, petizioni non servono a nulla, se non a far capire ai rapitori che hanno in mano molto più potere di quello che hanno realmente? Ma quanto ci vuole per capire che più l’attenzione dei media è concentrata sul giornalista rapito e meno importante (e quindi sacrificabile per ottenere credibilità e maggior potere nella contrattazione) diventa la vita degli altri rapiti (come il povero autista di cui nessuno parla)?

To get you started, we’ve given you a $10 bonus that is automatically applied towards your first purchase of $10 or more (before shipping and tax) at participating stores. If you’ve just made an eligible purchase, you may have already used this one-time bonus. Otherwise your bonus will expire April 30, 2007.

What to buy with the 10$? (many stores do not ship to this Italy) Is there something digital I can buy?
