Montreal Quebec - Here i Come

So i am planning on visiting Montreal next month with some friends. As usual, i am trying to plan out our trip. I did some searching and have found some helpful resources and would like to share it with u all.

Montreal.com - Information about events happening in Montreal and much much more.
VirtualTourist - Treasure trove of information for people travelling to any part of the world. The forum for the city of Montreal is here.
Montreal City Weblog
If my trip goes according to plan and i dont feel lazy typing it up, i will post my itinerary and places i thought was worth visiting.

Saturday Morning Edition

Google Earth is back - I was able to see car's parked on my driveway. Thats preety impressive. And best of all its free.
Learn Unix in 10 Minutes - found via digg.
NewsGator Online - Read your rss feed's online. I started using it yesterday and so far it has performed flawlessly. You can add individual feed or import feeds using opml file. One advantage of reading rss by using services like newsgator is that there is no need to synchronise what you've read/not read if you are reading from multiple locations using rss reader on your computer/laptop.

Scoble Junior


Robert Scoble(Microsoft Geek) has made his son Patrick Scoble (who by the way is 11 years old) do a podcast (called "Something Inappropriate") as a punishment. His son downloaded the explicit podcast done by Dawn and Drew. For an 11 year old, patrick seems to be smart and funny. And Robert seems like such a laid back and fun dad. I hope they do it regularly.
NOTE: The picture at the top is of Patrick Scoble and Chris Pirillo that i found on Scoble's old site. This was taken in 2001, so i guess he was 7 at that time.

Links for July 6th 2005

Niagara Falls Blog - Blog about the city of niagara.
Memory Master - Methods taught by professional on how to make the most out of
your memory. And the best ways to remember stuffs.
Guide For running OSX on X86 - It seems like OSX for x86 platform has been leaked but there
is no gui. So basically its like running darwin.

On a side note, i watched War of The Worlds and it wasn't as impressive as it was hyped to be. It is an ok movie. If i had a rating system out of 5, i will give it 2.5/5. On the other hand, Batman Begins gets 5/5.
