This is a list of eight &#8220;Personal Finance&#8221; (accounting-type) programs that are entirely free, open source and mostly cross-platform. KMyMoney is not cross-platform but in the future it will be. The programs are listed in approximate order of simplicity and features.

Software benchmarks, like statistics, are easy to manipulate to make them say whatever you want. I just stumbled on this blog post showing a simple benchmark where Ruby comes out considerably faster than PHP. Since Ruby is generally considered a &#8220;slow&#8221; [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[iPlayer is a BBC service that allows you to watch TV shows several days after they&#8217;ve aired. However, it has been heavily criticised for being tied to Windows and Internet Explorer. In particular since the BBC is a government agency, it has a mandate to be vendor neutral.
Recently BBC announced a version of iPlayer for [...]]]></description>

I currently use Darcs and I am very happy with it, but I&#8217;m also interested in Monotone because it has an integrity assurance that I like (backed by cryptographic signatures). So I set out to choose a revicion control system. My basic criteria are simple:

		<description><![CDATA[Lately I have become interested in Minix 3. For anyone who hasn&#8217;t heard of Minix, here is some brief background.
Background
Minix (mini-Unix) is a Unix clone designed to be simple and easy to understand. A computers science professor (Andrew S. Tanenbaum) wrote Minix 1 in 1987 to teach his operating systems class. He also wrote a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In a previous post I said that Mozilla Prism is not an alternative to Adobe AIR. Thinking about it a little bit more, I think XULRunner is a more likely contender against Prism on its own. Like AIR, XULRunner is a tool for developers to use &#8220;web technologies&#8221; to make desktop applications. So I&#8217;ll just [...]]]></description>
