* Apple is offering a [free 30-day trial][1] of their post-production photo tool, Aperture. The trial gives you an uncrippled version of Aperture, but it doesn't come with samples or tutorials and it expires 30 days after the first launch.
* One of the first things I noticed about Firefox 2.0 was that it ditched the option to block 3rd part cookies. [Here's a thread in the MozillaZine Forums][2] that tells how to restore that setting.
* CNet reports that Microsoft's failed MSN music site will soon be [redirecting to the Zune Marketplace Web][3].
* Did you know the NSA uses Linux? Did you know you can [download their "security enhanced"][4] version?
* And finally, there's an interesting (and long) [story on IEEE Spectrum][5] about a new project named Parakey, from Blake Ross the creator of Firefox.
