Erik's Pulse has been published. Information Overload I've been operating in some kind of information overload mode in the last few days. It all started when I decided to listen to various podcasts while doing my early morning blog scans. I must be crazy. I'm using Doppler and WinAmp, with a custom podcast view. The next version of NewzCrawler will support enclosures. Yeah! Itsy Bitsy Little Utilities I recently stumbled on various freeware Windows utilities which I find quite useful:

• Mp3 Tag Tools, a MP3 ID3 tag editor. I use it to keep my tags in sync. A necessity if you use multiple MP3 players like I do.
• Ping Plotter, a nice alternative to traceroute.
• Empty Temp Folders, a temporary directories/files cleaner. Finally, a simple way to get rid of the crap left over by too many applications.
• Audacity, a cross-platform sound editor/recorder.
• AVG, a virus checker. It has now permanently replaced Norton AntiVirus on all my machines.
