Media Monkey 3 – Music Managing Just Got Easier
I’ve been using Media monkey for about 5 years now and converted many people along the way to this awesome software. For those who hate itunes and I know you all hate windows media player, here is the solution. Media monkey 3! So don’t take my word word for it and down it over here.

Monitor your internet bandwidth live from your computer
As I goto this snow season, i have signed up on a optus 3g plan @ $23.95 a month for 200mb. This means I have to be very careful how much bandwidth I’m using as once I go over it will cost me a fortune.
I have found the following tools useful:
Netlimiter: Free version lets you see how much each application is using and statistics on how much in total you have downloaded per hour, per day, per month etc..
DU Meter: Everything that netlimiter does but more! Although this is a paid version for $24.95
