And yes, the Query Express is a small (100KB executable), free, simple SQL Query Analyzer look alike. It can be run where the SQL Server client tools are not installed or licensed. It works for Oracle and other OLE-DB compliant databases too.

Just put it on your desktop and click!

Login to the database server

The interface. Quite similar with SQL Query Analyzer.

Let’s compare with this.

The SQL Query Analyzer

Almost the same! You should give it a try. It’s an alternative tool.

Google Chrome OS is an open source, lightweight operating system that will initially be targeted at netbooks. Later this year we will open-source its code, and netbooks running Google Chrome OS will be available for consumers in the second half of 2010. Because we’re already talking to partners about the project, and we’ll soon be working with the open source community, we wanted to share our vision now so everyone understands what we are trying to achieve.

This is technology.  Second half of 2010, I can’t wait for this to happen.

A t-shirt?  Yes, it’s a Ubuntu T-Shirt which i ordered from melayubuntu. His blog is one of my favourites after Tombuntu, where I learned a lot about this distro, tips & tricks before I started to fall in love with Linux. Heh. I’m still new i must say, a 10-months old ubuntu user.

Ubuntu?! How to pronounce? Watch here .

Ok. Full stop.

Let’s have a look at the shirt.

At the back of the shirt, it’s printed there ” Ubuntu Malaysia, Linux For Human Beings“. Cool.

Now zoom..

..the front design. I like!

Woooot! Just another superb project from Google. They hired Codeweavers to make Photoshop CS and CS2 work better under Wine. A good news I must say for all Linux users as Google & Codeweavers are working hard to improve Wine for Adobe Photoshop in Unix platform. Yah as we know.. There are quite number of people who use “Photoshop” as an excuse not to switch to Linux 100% (including myself) . I still prefer dual-boot because of this single reason.

What is Wine, anyway?

Wine is an Open Source implementation of the Windows API on top of X, OpenGL, and Unix.Think of Wine as a compatibility layer for running Windows programs. Wine provides both a development toolkit for porting Windows source code to Unix as well as a program loader, allowing many unmodified Windows programs to run on x86-based Unixes, including Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, and Solaris.

Thanks Google for this Open Source project! Wooot!

Actually, i have installed the Gutsy Gibbon in my machine using the CD i burned from the iso image i downloaded from their official website early this year. . Aha, now i’m using Ubuntu as the secondary OS, dual boot with my Windows XP.

Why Linux you may ask? It’s for fun, plus I want to experience the power of Linux. Ho Ho! More serious now. I choose Ubuntu as my favourite distro to fulfill the purpose.

Oh ya. I was given 4 Ubuntu stickers together with the CD. Don’t wait. Request yours now.

Argh, need to upload few urgent thing for printing. I asked Mr Google and I found FireFTP, a Firefox extension.

What can I say? It’s a great tool, simple, fast and you can even do the file transfer in the browser tab. Quite useful and efficient, eh? If you are a Firefox user and uses FTP client for your daily work, maybe you need to consider FireFTP.

So far based on my experience, I think Filezilla is still the best FTP client for me. And now maybe I’ll treat FireFTP as an alternative for my Firefox version.

Download and Try? Or consider a donation.
