Funny video that’s been sitting in my temp folder

This video has been sitting in my temp directory since July, 2005.  I figured some day I would get to it, and since I am cleaning my temp directory, that day is today.  The video is a clip from an HBO comedy performance where the comedian mimes actions to Natalie Imbruglia’s "Torn."  He does it with amazingly smooth transitions from each action to the next, not to mention how he choose to mime certain words.

Finally, a replacement for Lookout, aptly named Lookeen

After Microsoft bought Lookout, by far the best Outlook indexer, they incorporated its functionality into Windows Desktop Search.  WDS is a horrible app, in my opinion.  Microsoft chose to intentionally disallow Lookout as an add-in in Outlook 2007.  I have tried other indexers that work with Outlook, but none could compare to the efficient and fast Lookout.  I settled on Nelson Email Organizer (NEO), which is a standalone application.  It does do some nice things, but it just isn’t the same.

A successor to Lookout has found: Lookeen.  Like Lookout, it is a COM add-in just for indexing your mailbox (not a bloated app that also indexes your mailbox).  It is very fast, and offers a nice feature that Lookout never did: it display results in a tabbed window, so you can view results by their item type (messages, appointments, contacts, files, etc.).  Lookeen is in beta right now, but you can download it and give it a try.  I haven’t tried any complex searches, but my early results are very positive.
