Ever wanted to create a bootable usb stick ?

Quote from Unetbootin

UNetbootin allows you to create bootable Live USB drives for a variety of Linux distributions from Windows or Linux, without requiring you to burn a CD. You can either let it download one of the many distributions supported out-of-the-box for you, or supply your own Linux .iso file if you’ve already downloaded one or your preferred distribution isn’t on the list.

UNetbootin can create a bootable Live USB drive, or it can make a “frugal install” on your local hard disk if you don’t have a USB drive. It can load distributions by automatically downloading their ISO (CD image) files, or by using existing ISO files, floppy/hard disk images, or kernel/initrd files, for installing other distributions.

Want an easy integration of your FTP’s in Windows’ Explorer ?

TeamDrive maps a drive-letter to online storage services to make them easier and faster to use. Windows Explorer can be used to manage files on this virtual drive and any program can open and edit files directly in-place. Different team members can securely share documents and eliminate problems with concurrent changes.
TeamDrive uses a variety of techniques including background writes and local caching to speed access to files.

WinToFlash can transfer Windows XP, Vista, and 7 onto a flash drive as well as Server 2003 and 2008. WinToFlash can also transfer Windows Preinstallation Environments to flash drive.

WinToFlash is a softwaretool for transfering your Windows XP, Windows 2003, Windows Vista, Windows 2008 and Windows 7 setup from CD or DVD to flash in some mouse clicks.

The process is simple and mostly obvious. You tell WinToFlash where the installation files you want to transfer are located and either let the transfer wizard take care of things, or specify settings like what kind of format the flash drive will undergo.

Windows vista and 7 can also be installed on a USB drive with the following tutorial.

If you work in a stressful environment, like me, you’ll need a good dose of coffee to keep you going. But who’s turn was it for the “office-coffee-round ”  ?

Offcourse  you could workout a scheme in Excel or Access, but the good people of Douwe Egberts have created a software packet for this: Koffiemanager.

You create a coffee-group on the first startup, so that when someone in your network comes online and installs the program he can see this group and become part of it. You can give up to max 4 timetables when decided it’s coffee time, a user then receives a notification if he would like to participate.

Not only suitable for coffee, but also for tea, water, espresso, limonade, etc. Furthermore, “Koffiemanager” chooses who’s time it is to get some beverage.

And ow yeah: it keeps statistics about the amount a person has drunk.
