Sometimes CPAN install fails because of registered site's problem.

You can change the URL by this command.

cpan> o conf urllist push "CPAN URL"

CPAN site list is available on CPAN SITE page.

If you are UNIX-ite, you will like the web site "Goosh".

"Goosh" is a web based Google interface which imitates unix type CUI.
It has UNIX commands like "ls", "more", "clear", "cd", etc.

You can search images and videos by the command "images" and "video". And also "wiki", "news", "blogs", "feeds", "place", "translate" are available.

This is kind of worthless web program but you can just have fun on unique type of web site.

Even If you don't like the default desktop picture of Leopard and change it to the picture you like, MacOSX displays the picture again while booting up.

You can find out the default desktop picture in the path "/System/Library/CoreServices". Just get rid of the jpeg file "DefaultDesktop.jpg". Then you will never see the bored default picture from next boot.

I opened an image file with FireWorks CS4 by mistake, and I thought it would go to crash. But, it showed the activation dialog and could quit the application safely after opening the file.
Then I tried to check FW CS4 as main editor in DW CS4. Anyway though, there are still many possibility of sudden crash.

DreamWeaver CS4 almost runs well on my works.
I usually use dual display (display of MacBook Pro and an external display). I sometimes bring out MacBook Pro to other work place, and when I plug a different external display (different resolution), DW CS4 forgets the work place I registered. It messes up palettes.
I hope this bug will be fixed in next beta version.

I started to use Adobe DreamWeaver and FireWorks CS4 Beta Trial verision.

And trying to leave trial reports on Techlog.
