As I check out Jason Mraz’s videos on YouTube, I was surprised to find that there is a new channel design for YouTubers.

As you can see in the photo, it offers a much more clear design, and a much more efficient/easy way to access to different videos of the user. More javascript, more user friendliness, and most of all, more flexibility.

Changing your channel from the old one to the new one is easy. I’ll show you how the get and customize the new design.

Alright, it’s been a long time. We admit that. CubePoints 1.2.5 b1 is finally here, with the following features:

• [Feature] Reset all points to 0
• [Feature] Number of points given for registration
• [Change] Doesn’t remove white space in user names (Thanks Corey)

Okay, fine, I know it is only a small release, but I hope that through this, we can express the message that “we are not giving up CubePoints”.

The language files and the docs are yet to be updated yet. New language lines are as follows:

The amount of points of all your users would be reset to 0. Are you sure you want to continue? This action cannot be redone!

Reset all points

Number of points new members receive for registering

Do not add points for new registrations

Report any bugs you see! Have fun with the new release, and we will come back with more updates! Download it here

Microsoft has officially announced the availbiliy of download of Windows 7  Beta. It is now completely legal to download and install Windows 7. From the download page, the requirements are absolutely impressive, and if I reckon, it is much less than Windows Vista. Good job!

Minimum recommended specs call for:

• 1 GHz 32-bit or 64-bit processor
• 1 GB of system memory
• 16 GB of available disk space
• Support for DirectX 9 graphics with 128 MB memory (to enable the Aero theme)
• DVD-R/W Drive
• Internet access (to download the Beta and get updates)

This Beta expires on August 1, 2009, so you still have some time to play with it. Anyway, I am not going to continue and talk about useless stuff, download it at this link: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/beta-download.aspx

Oh, here is a wonderful comic from XKCD talking about Windows 7:
