HotBox for MacOSX

HotBox for MacOSX
HotBox is a background application for MacOSX, that allows you to make anything on screen full screen. Just press a keystroke and drag a box around whatever you want, and it will fill your entire monitor. It works great for things like webpages with videos or flash movies that don't have a full screen button, games you want to play full screen, text or images you want to enlarge, or anything else you might ever want to see become big.

TravelSIM.at for free roaming

TravelSIM.at for free roaming
With TravelSIM.at you get a standard GSM SIMcard with a +37 area code for Estland. If you travel with this SIM card to various countries, you don´t pay for receiving phone calls there. The caller pays the standard calling fare to a mobile phone in Estland. Pretty interesting. I will try to test this ASAP.
