Song of the Week #5

Chicane – What am I doing here Prt. 1

This song is truly beautiful!
There is no heavy “wub”‘s or “unce”‘s that you find in today’s electronic music, this song has “laid back” smooth chords in the background, which accompanies the vocals, truly a masterpiece in music.

A great chillout track!

This song is from the album Giants, I was listening to it yesterday night and i loved EVERY SINGLE TRACK on that album, i would totally recommend to check it out, you can find it on Spotify here.

You can visit Chicane’s website here.

Here is the song, Enjoy.

 

For the folks that need something more upbeat you can check out a remixed version here.

Free Game: Halo Trial

Hey, I just got out of a pretty intense match of Halo Trial, which is the demo for Halo Combat Evolved(halo 1), it is a free demo that you can play online on.

There is of course some restrictions:

  • Only 1 map
  • No tanks or ghosts
But that doesn’t matter if you just want a good game to play with your mates!

I really love this game, I used to play it with my brother back in the day, also i was in a clan a little while(DAE) which I unfortunately believe is dead now.

It still works online and stuff, you should try it out!
You can download it here

Program of the Week #1

PuTTY

I thought id start something more relevant to geeks, a program of the week series, this is a series in which I am gonna pick a program and tell you why it is awesome.
Sounds simple enough.

So this week we got Putty, the open source and free SSH client that everybody loves!
If you have used linux before, or you got a website you manage on a linux machine through SSH, you have probably used putty.

PuTTY is a free implementation of Telnet and SSH for Windows and Unix platforms, along with an xterm terminal emulator. It is written and maintained primarily by Simon Tatham.

PuTTY is awesome because it is FREE, and it WORKS, that in itself is enough to use anything, another reason might be that there are plugins for PuTTY!

You can download PuTTY from the creators website here
