MeeTimer - Curb your online procrastination

"The Web is replacing the TV as the #1 time-thief in our lives. And, unlike the TV, the Web cannot be shared with friends; nor does it respect the boundaries of work. Thus you spend more time 'working' and less time socialising. This ramps up stress for everyone; but particularly affects those who charge by the hour (and thus actually lose money to procrastination, in addition to less free time).

Thus we wrote MeeTimer, a Firefox extension that uses a two-pronged attack to curb your (misplaced) time online. First it makes you aware, explicitly showing you which activities and sites are taking up most of your time... you will be surprised! Second, it actively deters you from using a site, in case your willpower is not up to the task! "

The University of Michigan Tibetan Collection

"The Tibetan Collection at the University of Michigan holds approximately 3000 volumes of Tibetan language materials containing more than twice as many titles. These include xylographs in traditional pecha format, bound codices, manuscripts and over 1500 titles on microfiche. The majority of these books were distributed by the Library of Congress as part of the PL480 program and often reproduce rare and important Tibetan works that have since been lost within Tibet itself. Most of these materials were published in South Asia through the 1960s and 70s in very limited numbers and are now out of print"

Beginning Perl

"Perl is a well-established programming language that has been developed through the time and effort of countless free software programmers into an immensely powerful tool that can be used on pratically every operating system in the world. Perl started out as the "Swiss army knife" of computer languages and was used primarily by system administrators, but over time it's grown into an immensely robust language used by web-developers and programmers worldwide. It's also a great way to learn programming techniques and develop your own style of coding."
