XML Notepad 2006

XML Notepad 2006Everybody likes quick and dirty apps, especially me. Anything quick and dirty that is also free is my holy grail. Microsoft is offering the XML Notepad 2006 for download, which is quick, dirty, and free. It is exactly what it sounds like. It is a simple XML editor for editing XML documents. Sometimes less is more, and this app proves it. XML Notepad does a nice job of helping you organize XML nodes and easily modify XML documents. Like I said, quick and dirty is the focus here, and it isn't (by any means) full featured, but it does it's job well and makes quick work of editing XML, should you ever need to. I 'm sure that most of the time, XML documents are managed by more complex processes and programs, because that is the point after all. This app is nice to have in case you run into a small-scale edit that needs to be done. You don't need to launch your behemoth programming IDE to do it.

This one shows the nodes expanded. That is about all there is to XML Notepad 2006, but it works well.

Forumwarz - a potentially offensive time waster

I pwn UAfter spending the better part of an hour on Forumwarz I still can't decide if it's just sick or if it's kind of fun. It's a bit like a car wreck on the highway. I know I shouldn't be looking but I can't quite turn away.

It's sick, it's twisted, it's the internet on it's worst level and darn it, it's kind of fun. At least for a little while.

Forumwarz is a parody role-playing game that takes place on the internet - or at least the Forumwarz version of it. Your goal is to complete missions that are given to you through a mock up of GoogleTalk called Sentrillion.

Your first "friend" is ShallowEsophagus who begins giving you missions to pwn various forums by being a troll. Depending on the character type you are assigned at start up, you have tools like drooling on the keyboard or bashing your head on the keyboard that you can use to destroy forum threads and eventually, pwn a forum.

Future missions involve buying illegal software from the Russians, pwning more difficult forums and other internet oddness.

Completing missions gives you cash, called Flezz in game, and items that you can pawn or use in other missions. The game is NOT for those easily offended. It's crass, coarse and there are frequent f-bombs in the fake chat sessions.

This is also a game for a more mature audience as it requires you to shop at the Drugs R Fun store to get various concoctions to improve your playing, engage in certain cyber activities to get more Flezz and just generally use a more adult perspective.

If you can get past that, here are the more enjoyable and time-wasting aspects.
