Windows and Mac: get a free FileMaker Campus Productivity Kit to help you manage contacts, organize your lecture notes and homework, track assignments, and more.

This is a totally free (after a quick registration) download of a pretty slick GTD application; it's got five basic integrated modules that you can really go far with, but if you want to do even more (and you're a student), you can purchase the full version of FileMaker Pro for 50% off retail. The FileMaker Campus Productivity Kit is a free download, Windows and Mac systems both welcome. — Wendy Boswell

Lately, my PC speakers have sounded like a bowl of Rice Crispies, so this speakers troubleshooting guide over at WikiHow arrived just in time.

There are thankfully a very limited number of ways that your speakers could be messed up - sound card, bad driver, short in the wires, etc. I was able to use this article to figure out that I had sound card driver issues; all I needed to do was click "uninstall", one easy reboot later and my driver installed itself again automatically. — Wendy Boswell
