    Addictive little online games

     

    It's the Friday before Christmas weekend. Stop pretending you're trying to get any work done today. Your boss is either off on vacation already or has her feet up on the desk, waiting for the appropriate hour to sneak off for a "late lunch" and never come back. To help you in your final hours of pre-holiday work, I compiled a list of some addictive online games, easy to play but hard to master. Have hours of fun. Go on, you deserve it.

    Line Rider - You know it, you love it. This is the new version, just released.

    Winterbells - Jump a bunny from bell to bell.

    Finger Frenzy - How fast can you type the alphabet? (My high is 8.54 seconds. (Slow typer.))

    Sober Santa - Steer drunk Santa away from the rails.

    Falling sand game - Part game, part physics experiment.

    ...and many more.

    10 online operating systems

    This is an interesting article about WebOS concept, also has links to 10 WebOSs and reviews about them.

    Here is the list:

    1. Craythur
    2. Desktoptwo

    3. EyeOS

    4. Glide

    5. Goowy

    6. Orca

    7. Purefect

    8. SSOE

    9. XinDESK

    10. YouOS

    Here's the excerpt from the link:

    But what is a WebOS (not to be confused with another definition of the term, see here), or a Webtop, anyway ? Here’s a simple definition: WebOS is a virtual operating system that runs in your web browser. More precisely, it’s a set of applications running in a web browser that together mimic, replace or largely supplement a desktop OS environment. It’s a tough field to start in for a Web 2.0 entrepreneur, because to be successful you need to create several applications that are at least as good as other competitors, and you need to connect them all into a usable bundle. What’s also expected by most users is that all this looks decent, operates similarly to a “real” OS and behaves as a real “OS” would, and is relatively bug-free. Simply put, to gain real everyday users, your WebOS has to be damn good. We’ll see how these newcomers fare in the following months and when (and if) some big giant like Google decides to create their own WebOS.

    Everything about binary trees

    This site has solutions (source code) for problems involving Binary trees. It contains source code in C as well as Java. All the solutions are recursive solutions.

    Binary trees are recursive data structures, any operations on the binary trees (traversals, finding depths, search,printing) can be done recursively.

    non recursive solutions for a binary tree are much complicated. Pre-order traversal of binary tree can be done easily without using the recursion (using stacks), but post-order and in-order are complicated. post-order and in-order non-recursive traversals require an additional element (visited) added to the binary tree data structure.
