I posted about it today over at Two Guys Tech, but starting Friday morning and running through this weekend, (6/20/2008 - 6/22/2008), you can play team fortress 2 for free!

You can even pre-load the game now, so that you don’t have to waste one precious moment of game time.

This is really a terrific first person shooter, it looks like a Pixar film, and emphasizes teamwork.

Sorry for the delay on Wallpaper Tuesday, I was at work until about 3AM this morning working with the local phone service to resolve some T-1 issues.

I picked this wallpaper because I would really like a set of those arms. I bet my productivity would really be increased. Except, I would probably have to take time out to fight Spider-Man.

This week’s choice for wallpaper is "Multitasking" by Professional-Icons. I found the wallpaper on Interfacelift, which was recommended by Art. Wow, some really great stuff out there. I’m willing to bet that I’ll start featuring some more picks from here.

In this round of links, I tried to pick a batch that would have something for almost everyone. Enjoy!

Blender 3D - Noob to Pro - Blender is a free, and powerful, 3D modeling program. Just like the programs used to make animated movies like Shrek and the like. It has a bit of a learning curve, and this Wikibook can help you get started.

The Drupal Cookbook - For Beginners - Sure, you love WordPress, and who doesn’t, but if you’re going to launch a media empire that one day will rule the world, then you’re going to need a content management system. Drupal is very powerful, and like Peter Parker’s uncle said, "With great power comes great complication", or something like that. Fact is, Drupal isn’t quite as straight forward as WordPress, but this guide can help. Yes, Two Guys Tech is Drupal.

Zombies in Plain English - I know, there was awhile there where I was posting about Zombies pretty often, heck, I even think I’ve covered this one too. I still thought it should be in here. You never know when the Zombie Apocalypse may start…

How to Install and Configure NMap for Windows - You read that right. NMap for Windows. The long time favorite network mapping and network exploration tool for Unix and Linux, NMap is now available for Windows. Did you want to see what hosts are on your network, or what services those hosts are running? How about what OS? NMap is the tool. This Search Security Article can help you get up and running with NMap.

Gimp Resources on Simplehelp.Net - Simplehelp.net is really a great site for tutorials, and I know Ross puts a great deal of effort into creating them. Here is a collection of resources for Gimp, the Open Source, Free, image manipulation program. Hey, go ahead and spend a big chunk on photoshop if you want to, but don’t tell me I didn’t warn you.

I haven’t actually used photoshop much, but my needs are pretty simple. Gimp has always been able to meet my needs, and I haven’t even scratched the surface of what it can do.

Money Magazine - What it takes to be Rich - A series of stories about people who have become very well off. How they did it, and what you can learn from it. If you do follow the link, and use the strategy to become rich, remember who sent you there. I wouldn’t turn down a finder’s fee

I wonder if you can order these. With my luck, I would probably get arrested.

These came in a random email, so I don’t know where they originated from.
