Donation this Month: cwRsync

Published on 18 September, 2006 in 59ideas and products. 0 Comments

In keeping with my plan to make donation from my online earnings to opensource softwares that I use, this month donation goes to cwRsync.

cwRsync is a packaged rsync client and server for Windows. Rsync is an open source utility that provides incremental file transfer.You may not be familiar with this application as it is not featured widely. I only found out about it last month as well.

For the last 1 month I had been using it in the background and am very happy with the result. cwRsync solves part of the backup solution that I had been looking for.

This project deserve more attention. I’m doing my little to give it a small donation and promotion. Check it out!

Using my name or 59ideas

Published on 12 September, 2006 in 59ideas and blogging. 0 Comments

In a few of my blogs I had started to change my identity from 59ideas to Ken. I think more people prefer to know a person by real name than a nickname.

Not that I have anything to hide behind my handle (does anyone know what this word mean anymore?). I disclose about myself in the about page and if you like to know more just ask me.

Anyway, I’m see gradually more transactions lately and I plan to expand my online presence. So I want to assure everyone that you are dealing with trustworthy person, albeit in an unfamiliar part of the world.

Payday! Another Adsense check, another donation.

It feels good to be able to give back to projects and efforts that had helped me make my income. As promised it will be a regular thing.

This time I am making a small donation to BlogDesk.

BlogDesk is an offline blogging tool. It allows you to compose your blog offline and upload it to the server. Some of its most attractive featues includes

can manage multiple blogs
resize and upload images
templates

Look out for a full review on it in Free Biz Waresoon.

While BlogDesk may not be as feature packed as other blogging clients, it is lite and does the job for me.

BlogDesk is developed by Johannes Oppermann, a very helpful guy. I counted in my mailbox 50 email exchanges where he tried to help me with an upload problem. Truely he deserves your support.

If you are looking for offline blogging tools, definitely give BlogDesk a try.
