  1. Social Bookmarking
  2. A comfortable and browser independent way to store my bookmarks

How to identify processes

I would like to kill some processes that run on my machine. I don't know exactly who they are and what do they do.
I discovered that What process has a utility that you can download on your machine and that allows you to discover some info about the processes riunning on your machine.
You can also discover this information using the web browser. For example, you need to know what is csrss.exe, so you can point your browser to the following URL http://www.what-process.com/process-info.aspx?p=csrss.exe and you got process information plus some users comments!

The following HTML code can be used as a tool to query process info!

<HTML>
<body>
<form >
<INPUT type="button" name="button1" value="Submit"
OnClick='var a="http://www.what-process.com/process-info.aspx?p=";
a=a+text1.value;
window.location=a'>
<INPUT type="text" name="text1">
</form>
</body>
</HTML>

The 25 Top Jobs for 2005

Mi sembra molto strano trovare tra i "Top-Jobs" per il 2005 citati da Fastcompany.com quelli relativi all'IT.
La classifica dei job e` stata compilata in base a:

  • Richiesta
  • Stipendio
  • Livello di scolarita'
  • Innovazione e creativita`

I find surprising discover that among The 25 Top Jobs for 2005 there is still place for IT jobs.
The rank is based on the following criteria:
  • Demand level
  • Salary Range
  • Investement in education
  • Innovation and creativity
