Ya van apareciendo las primeras imágenes de Kumo, la nueva plataforma (aunque parece que no definitiva) de Microsoft en lo que a búsquedas se refiere. Por cierto, algunos “pajaritos” están cantando que este proyecto podría ser un primer paso en la unión Microsoft – Yahoo! Search.
Windows only: Tiny utility Rightload makes short work of uploading files to almost any server, whether you have your own FTP or just want to quickly send images to Flickr.
Once installed, take a trip over to Tools -> Manage Servers to configure your accounts. Rightload supports FTP, SFTP and Flickr out of the box, but you can get more plugins from the download page, including Imageshack, Rapidshare, and Tinypic. After configuring, you can upload files by dragging them into the window, or simply use the Rightload options from the context menu—once the files are uploaded it can even generate links or image tags. The context menu options don’t work in Vista 64-bit, but they have a set of Send To shortcuts for you that do the same thing.
We’ve mentioned this utility before, but since then they have added support for HTTP upload sites and custom plugins, making this a must-have utility for anybody sharing files online with friends or embedding images into a forum.

A carpenter in a Chinese village, perhaps unwilling to spend what would amount to a month’s pay on a bicycle, has created a 100% wooden one to ride around town instead.
55-year-old Peijia Wu, from Shandong province, allegedly took three months to build his DIY wooden bike. It features no metal parts whatsoever – joints are fixed with small wooden bungs and a rod-crank system has replaced where the chain would normally be.
Ingenious! It’s like a stair master and a bike rolled into one and it’s probably less likely to fall apart than other wooden bike models.
