LogMeIn remote computer access beefs up free service

LogMeIn Free beta
LogMeIn provides a suite of free and commercial applications that let
you remotely log onto your PC or Mac from any machine with a web
browser. But there are a few drawbacks. While you really can use pretty
much any web browser, you'll have better results with Internet Explorer
or Firefox because those applications can handle an ActiveX control or
plugin. If you're using a different browser, your remote session may
look more like a slideshow than a live view of your remote computer.

3D Lunar Lander - Time Waster

Time Wasterby Jason Clarke (RSS feed) Aug 27th 2009 at 12:00PM

3D Lunar Lander

Well, we're a little late given that the 40th anniversary of the Apollo
11 lunar landing has passed, but this version of Lunar Lander is just
too cool to pass up. Grant wrote about the classic versions of Lunar
Lander last month, and though this one is certainly inspired by the same
event, the implementation is just a tad different.

To play this 3D version of Lunar Lander you will need the Google Earth
plug-in for your browser (don't worry, if you don't have it the page
will automatically prompt you to install it). This version of Lunar
Lander attempts to simulate the landing that Neil Armstrong performed on
Apollo 11. The game is rendered in 3D using Google Earth's moon mapping
capability, and your view is from outside the lunar landing module.

Go there...
