Ventrilo for Mac
Well, it hasn't been long since TeamSpeex brought Teamspeak support to Mac users, and now we actually have a Ventrilo client available as well. Still only supports the Speex codec rather than the GSM one which everyone actually uses, but it's a big start.

Fun with Standards
Safari became the first web browser to pass the Acid2 test test. Acid2 is a test page written to test web standards. What's fun about this is trying out browsers other than Safari just to see the results.

Rebuilding a Spotlight index
I recently lost the ability to search message bodies in Mail. No errors, but there were never any results returned for any search. Turns out my Spotlight index was corrupted/missing/incomplete. Probably from the myriad of hard crashes while I've been trying to get ActiveSync 4.1 working in Virtual PC for Mac. You know, those crashes where the display turns translucent and you see an attractive multi-language screen telling you to hold down the power button? In any case, it's easy to rebuild the Spotlight index but opening Terminal and typing:

sudo mdimport -f /

It took about 40 minutes to rebuild the index, and searching in Mail is now working fine.
