Jan 5th
SWFUpload is a client-side file upload tool originally developed by Vinterwebb.se. It uses a combination of Flash and JavaScript to provide file upload functionality beyond what the basic browser provides with the <input type=”file” /> tag.

eyeOS a Web Operating System
I would like to talk to you about an open source Web application that I have followed since its beginnings: eyeOS. This application started with the goal to become a true Web Operating System and now the guys call it Open Source Cloud Computing’s Web Desktop.

It allows you to shorten any long URL (ie. http://www.ramirezcobos.com = http://bit.ly/8zivPq -click on it and you will be redirected here) and also gives you click statistiques.
Nevertheless, there are also other providers that allows you to create a small URL on the fly such as tinyurl.com or to.y. If any of you wishes to create small urls through their PHP code here I got a set of functions (using CURL) for you use on your More >
