A time tracking software has become free. The software looks interested and is said to be more useful for students. I haven't tried it out but perhaps you'll want to download the software and get the license key for free first.

The Facebook Series #3: HTTPS Support

Tech Speak: Bing Uses Google Results As Their Search Results

http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2011/02/microsofts-bing-uses-google-search.html

Bing is reportedly using Google's search results in their search engine. Bing is created by Microsoft and it has denied doing so. However a simple experiment done by Googlers showed that Microsoft is in fact doing so.

Personally I don't think that Google's experiment was very concrete though I guess they did a more thorough research but did not put up the full details on their blog. Anyway, Microsoft should come up with a statement soon, admit that they did it and apologise to Google.

That said, by looking at Google's method to conduct the experiment (do read the article at their blog), it's obvious that they can manipulate the search results to show us what they want. This isn't news, but still it is unsettling.
