If we took a poll right now, it would be a safe bet to say that most would say they loved using Wikipedia. For good reason too as Wikipedia provides people with easy access to information they would otherwise spend a bit of time looking for on the Web. But what about those who aren’t native English speakers or children who are still developing their vocabulary? Fortunately, there’s a Wiki just for them.
All things geek. All the time.

Most of the standard computer speakers and MP3 speakers that are available today have one thing in common, they sound like someone’s singing inside a tin can. Most of these standard speakers that come bundled with your PC or media player end up in a pile somewhere and are forgotten immediately. If you’re looking for something that does the job (actually sounding like a speaker) and small enough to fit on your desk, take a look at this.

Almost everyone who owns a mobile phone wants to customize it to fit their unique personality. From wallpapers, themes, and ringtones, we want our own look and feel. Having your own favorite song as your ringtone is great but can get annoying when it’s a whole song. Editing the song and cutting out the part you want is easy enough but might be more work than most of you are willing to put up with.
mp3cut is a free ringtone creator that is entirely web-based. No app download and installation needed. Just upload your mp3 of choice, adjust the sliders to the part you want to use as your ringtone, and click the split button. Once it’s done you’ll get to download your cut version. That’s it, 3 steps and you have your own custom ringtone.
