There are a lot of nice additions in Windows 2000, although most of them can't be shown in a demo; look it up in Wikipedia if you really want a nice list. This is widely regarded to be the most stable release of Windows ever, and several people still use it as their primary operating system; Windows 2000 will continue to get updates until 2010.
Four service packs were released, some including extra functionality, but internal stuff that's not important for this video (like USB 2.0 support).
The name Windows 2000 caused quite a bit of confusion as its status of either a "business" operating system or a "home"/personal operating system. Obviously, the year as its name implies it is the logical upgrade from Windows 95/98. In 1998, Microsoft changed the name from Windows NT 5.0 to Windows 2000, and assigned the Windows 95/98 marketing team to market Windows 2000. It was planned that Windows 98 was to be the very last version of MS-DOS based Windows, finally moving the home user to the more stable (and slightly more secure) Windows NT operating system. Plans changed, and Windows 2000 was supposed to be a business operating system only (despite obviously having numerous media applications and such that were oriented for personal computing), and Windows Me would become the last MS-DOS-based version of Windows. Despite this, many home users purchased Windows 2000 as an upgrade from 95/98, and some still use it.
A Windows 2000 Home Edition was in development, but eventually canceled when Microsoft changed its mind about the MS-DOS vs NT affair. It was called "Windows Neptune" and featured a new log in screen and a help center. Windows Neptune would eventually form the base for the major additions in Windows XP. The canceled Home Edition is probably why the "lowest" edition of Windows 2000 ended up being called Professional (albeit, the other editions were meant for servers, so there really was only one logical choice for home users/clients/workstations).

Many of these were requested by iWeb 08 users. Particularly users that have there own web host rather then Dot Mac or Me Dot Com. Now iWeb 09 users can not only publish to there ME/Account but also to a specified folder & ftp/sftp account. Maybe one of the best features is now that when you update your site it only updates the site your working on rather then all of your sites, and to the selection you picked for it.
So if you build sites for others they no longer need to be on you Me/Account they can be saved somewhere else. Another great addition is the FTP upload directly within iWeb 09 is self. This is great if you don't already have a ftp client of your choice to use.
Feel free to comment or leave your suggestions on iWeb 09.

To software geeks, the arrival of summer can only mean one thing: Google's Summer of Code returns. Now in its fourth year, Google is expecting more than 1,100 students and 175 open source projects to take part in the festivities. In today's edition of the Free Line, we cover four projects that are choosing to spend their summer with Google.

Anyone who has taken a high school journalism class is familiar with the desktop publishing app QuarkXpress. It's versatile, it's powerful... and it's as easy to use as...a Boeing 737. For an easier alternative, try Scribus. While it contains most of the tools that QuarkXpress does, Scribus is one thing the name brand competition is not: user friendly. Scribus is available for most major operating systems -- and it's free.

As many loyal viewers of the Free Line know, OpenOffice is a great alternative to the big name word processing suites produced by Microsoft and Apple. But what if you want an alternative to the alternative? If this is the case, then AbiWord is for you. AbiWord does one thing - word processing - but it does it well. Small, lightweight and very easy to use, AbiWord is a good choice for those who dislike OpenOffice, but loathe the competition even more. And by the way, AbiWord was used in the creation of today's Free Line Report.

Being creative is great and all, but what if you just want to leave the house? Don't worry. Open source programmers have that covered as well. OpenStreetMap is is kind of like Google Maps, and operates under a Creative Commons license. This guide is actually created by its users. Armed with everything from GPS devices to pen and paper, participants in the project track, photograph, and write about everything they come across. These journeys, in turn, are added to the OpenStreetMap database.

And finally, if you like the idea of unwinding and have a few of those old LucasArts point-and-click adventure games lying around, then ScummVM is certainly for you. Created by uTorrent creator Ludvig Strigeus, ScummVM is intended to breathe new life into the forgotten classics like Day of the Tentacle and I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream. Perhaps the best part is that it will run on most anything, from Windows XP to the iPhone. But before you run off to play Monkey Island 3, a word of warning: while the emulator might be free, most of the games are not. Go to ScummVM for a world class emulator, but go to thrift stores or eBay for the games themselves.

Even though it is popular, a lot of its power isn't getting tapped by most users. If you think you might be missing out on some of the capabilities of google analytics, check out the Free Line today -- we've got a link to the top 20 resources -- just for Google Analytics. Sometimes it's amazing what you get for free. http://www.freelinereport.com/freeline-3-26-08 And you may know that Amazon has been offering fulfillment services for business owners and other online merchants for some time. But until now, any business using Amazon's fulfillment service had to go through a series of complicated and manual steps to ship anything. With the new Amazon API, this is all history -- so if you're selling physical products online, you might want to take another look at Amazon's fulfillment service. http://www.freelinereport.com/freeline-3-26-08 Ever wanted to share your iTunes music with your friends, but found out that's harder than it should be? Well, check out the the free iTunes utility, Mojo. With Mojo you can easily share your iTunes library over the internet, and give your friends access to your songs. http://www.freelinereport.com/freeline-3-26-08 If you use iTunes on windows, you might be greeted with a surprise automatic installation of the new Safari web browser. The Mozilla Foundation, creator of Safari's competitor, FireFox, is complaining, saying that users should at least have the choice whether or not to install Safari. http://www.freelinereport.com/freeline-3-26-08 And finally, Google Doc's has opened up its API, allowing users to add Google Gadgets inside of documents -- for example, now you can create stunning reports for your Google Spreadsheet using the Visualization API. Developers will be able to really leverage the two technologies, which is great for people that use Google's free online alternative to Microsoft Office. You know, it's getting harder and harder to compete with Free. http://www.freelinereport.com/freeline-3-26-08 Until tomorrow, join our email list at freelinereport.com so you can keep up with Web 2.0 -- in just 2.0 minutes a day -- for free.
