Catptcha's the small image you have to look at and type in when you're downloading something from Rapidshare or leaving a comment at someone's blog. This prevents bots from doing the stuff you don't them want, such as taking up a lot of bandwidth and adding to the spam.

But if you thought that Captcha's were meant to be the dale of beating spam (accessibility is a consideration where you don't have an audio message as an alternate to reading the Captcha image), think again, they're themselves getting beaten by PWNtcha, OCR Research Team, Greg Moriand & Jitendra Malik and Brains-n-Brawn to name a few, all utilizing OCR techniques.

Lol. Really cool. Check out the Youtube video link.

Microsoft Redesigns Ipod Packaging

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., October 9, 2006 - Google Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG) announced today that it has agreed to acquire YouTube, the consumer media company for people to watch and share original videos through a Web experience, for $1.65 billion in a stock-for-stock transaction. Following the acquisition, YouTube will operate independently to preserve its successful brand and passionate community.

I tried CoffeeCup Free FTP and Smart FTP. I didn't like either of them pretty much. While the former has a lot of connection issues, the later ends up taking too much resources all of a sudden on my XP Professional besides the cluttered UI which could do with a serious redesign.

I'm trying out Core FTP now and it seems to work good. I hope it stays that way.

Serisously, the best I've used as most of us have has been Cute FTP. It serisouly kicks ass. Real easy to use, you can opt for the trial version (1 month) if you wanna try it out.

Know any other good free FTP clients?

Ofcourse, if you want to use a commercial FTP client, Cute FTP is the best I've used, totally hassle free.

The weather is so awesome outside right now. Cool and breezy and the birds chirping and the clouds drawn. I'm not feeling sleepy any longer.

What they say?

I was looking for a MIME parser and searched 'MIME parser' selected C# and found a whole project about communicating with POP3 accounts, downloading mails, and extracting attachments. This simplified my life enormously. Plus, it gave me time to throw an office BBQ. Thanks Krugle.

I put up the note at the Technology DL at office since most developers I knew where not aware of it. Check it out. I'm not a programmer.. but coming from Google, it sounds promising.
