One of my favourite little applications is DigiGuide. By application I actually mean an old style .exe. DigiGuide was a piece of software I downloaded years ago, pay for and use every day. It’s an electronic TV listings guide for the UK. Sure, it lets me sort channels and show them in a display format […]
Desktop dinosaur – the Applerex
There are hardly any wallpaper posts here on Geek Native and they’re very popular.

As expected that would make the […]
How fanboys see operating systems
This funny visual was put together by (I think) Joey Devilla (what a great name). So make sure you visit his site and give him some love. Let’s avoid the debate as to whether the Mac OS is just Linux or whether it’s wrong to lump all the Linux flavours together. Let’s just point and […]
