About Download Queue
A slim, but fully featured, download manager. It supports the http, https and ftp protocols including support for manual and auto-resume, acceleration using multiple connections per download, a bandwidth monitor and a full download history. Downloads can be scheduled to run, and optionally stop, automatically at a chosen time every day or just once at a particular time and date. Downloads can also be controlled manually.

A data transfer limit, including a “free” period, can now be setup in the preferences. To keep you on top of your data the Bandwidth inspector displays all data received, as well as the average data rate. You can even set Download Queue to stop all activity when your data limit is reached.

Once your files are downloaded you can open them from Download Queue, or move them anywhere you like just by dragging them to the Finder.

An optional Safari extension can be installed which adds Download Queue menu items to Safari’s context menu; it also enables direct adding of downloads when the Shift key is held down.

A Firefox extension is also available.

    About Nexuiz
    Has been in development for close to five years by a team of amateur developers led by Lee Vermeulen. It is a 3D deathmatch game made entirely over the internet. The purpose of the game is to bring deathmatch back to the basics, with perfect weapon balancing and fast paced action, keeping itself away from the current trend of realistic shooters. It uses HFX textures by Evil Lair, and currently has 27 maps to frag in. With an advanced UI, the user can select between 15 different player models to use, with an average of two skins for each, and can connect to our master server to play people from all over the world.

    The game’s content and source are GPL. Meaning, it is entirely free and any of it can be used in other free projects, even if modified. This is a first for any large game project of its type. We hope this will support the free game community, and encourage more GPL projects.

    About Return to Dark Castle 3
    In a time of magic and mythical beasts, the ominous Dark Castle glows eerily under the full moon. For centuries, the evil Black Knight has dwelled within these walls, spreading fear over the once peaceful countryside. All seemed hopeless until one day, a traveler from a faraway land wandered into the peasant village.

    He called himself Prince Duncan, and told the townspeople he had come on a quest to vanquish the Black Knight. Overjoyed that peace might finally be restored to their land, they cheered as Duncan set off toward the castle. But alas, their hero never returned from his valiant quest.

    Tales of his bravery were all that were spoken of Dark Castle for many years…. Until now. A new hero has arrived, ready to face the perils of the castle and destroy the cruel Black Knight once and for all.

    2. Got my iPhone App Icon Created at 99Designs - This past week I have been working with the designers at 99Designs to create new artwork for our Tasting Notes iPhone app. 99Designs works by letting you create a contest where artists compete for your project. It is a very interesting concept and while not 100% smooth it did get the job done.

    4. Sony VAIO P tackles netbooks, iPhone at once - Sony at CES has outed its long-expected VAIO P. The computer is Sony's approach to netbooks but also claims to take on smartphones through an extra-long design with a crazy 1600x768 screen, 3G and GPS; it's small enough to fit in a pocket, the company says. Does anyone see themselves carrying this instead of an iPhone or iPod touch, though?
