Share1t provides simple, free file hosting up to 100mb


Some things are best kept simple, and that's exactly the way Share1t.com approaches its file sharing service.

The Share1t home page is totally uncluttered, with nothing but a thin information header at the top, banner ad in the footer, and a nice, big browse-and-upload form right in the middle.

After uploading your file, you'll be given a truncated URL, HTML and BBCode for embedding your file, and an option to email the link to the file. It only handles one address at a time, but the Ajax form provides the option to enter another recipient once your message has been sent.

Files of up to 100mb can be uploaded and will remain on the site for 15 days. The TOS does declare, however, that a file may be downloaded a "reasonable number of times" after which point it may automatically be deleted, though the specific number isn't mentioned.

With that in mind, Share1t is probably best suited to small(ish) uploads that you'd like to share with a few select people. Still, it's an uncomplicated, fast service and handy enough to bookmark just in case.

Thanks, William!

Civiballs is a beautiful, soothing physics puzzle Time Waster

CiviballsI have an absolute weakness for physics games, and while Civiballs isn't the strongest physics-based game, what it lacks in the physics department it makes up for a few times over in style and fun.

In Civiballs, you are presented with a few colored balls, and your goal is to get those balls into the same-colored urn on the level. The "civi" part of Civiballs is that there are 3 sets of levels to play, each representing a different civilization. While the civilization doesn't affect gameplay, the artwork for each level is beautifully themed to it's appropriate era.

To play the game, you are given only one tool - a sword with which to cut the chains that are holding the balls. The puzzle part of the game is in figuring out what order, and with what timing to cut each chain. Do it right, and all the right balls end up in the right urns, with no stray balls entering an urn (a no-no). Do it wrong, and you get to start over again.

Civiballs is not terribly deep on gameplay; the entire game can be completed in about 15 minutes. But if you enjoy this type of game, it will be a very enjoyable 15 minutes.
