Jekyll is a simple, blog-aware, static site generator. It takes a template directory containing raw text files in various formats, runs it through Markdown (or Textile) and Liquid converters, and spits out a complete, ready-to-publish static website suitable for serving with your favorite web server. Jekyll also happens to be the engine behind GitHub Pages, which means you can use Jekyll to host your project’s page, blog, or website from GitHub’s servers for free.

These instructions will guide you through the process of setting up a reddit clone for the first time. We also have an automated install script for Ubuntu Linux 12.04.
Reddit has a very intuitive comment system. They release their source code so anyone can build upon what they have already built.
ZMap is an open-source network scanner that enables researchers to easily perform Internet-wide network studies. With a single machine and a well provisioned network uplink, ZMap is capable of performing a complete scan of the IPv4 address space in under 45 minutes, approaching the theoretical limit of gigabit Ethernet.
ZMap can be used to study protocol adoption over time, monitor service availability, and help us better understand large systems distributed across the Internet.
PIXresizer is a photo resizing program to easily create web and e-mail friendly versions of your images with reduced file sizes.
It’s like a spreadsheet, immediately familiar, but much more suitable for complex data because it’s hierarchical.
It’s like a mind mapper, but more organized and compact.
It’s like an outliner, but in more than one dimension.
It’s like a text editor, but with structure.
Have a quick look at what the application looks like on the screenshots page, see how easy it is to use in the tutorial (out of date, the live in-app tutorial works much better!), then give it a download (above).

Open vSwitch is a production quality, multilayer virtual switch licensed under the open source Apache 2.0 license. It is designed to enable massive network automation through programmatic extension, while still supporting standard management interfaces and protocols (e.g. NetFlow, sFlow, SPAN, RSPAN, CLI, LACP, 802.1ag). In addition, it is designed to support distribution across multiple physical servers similar to VMware’s vNetwork distributed vswitch or Cisco’s Nexus 1000V. See the full feature list here

Memfetch
It is a simple utility to dump all memory of a running process, either immediately or when a fault condition is discovered. It is an attractive alternative to the vastly inferior search capabilities of many debuggers and tracers – and a convenient way to grab “screenshots” from many types of text-based interactive utilities. To install memfetch:
## FreeBSD ## pkg_add -r -v memfetch ## other *nix user download it from the following url ## wget http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/soft/memfetch.tgz tar xvf memfetch.tgz cd memfetch && make
via Top 8 Tools For Linux / Unix Memory Forensics Analysis.
This looks like a useful tool. From the README file:
Debuggers like gdb are pretty good for examining small sections
of code or memory, but are pretty much useless for massive comparison, sophisticated searches and such. It’s good to be able to retrieve full memory image to run it thru grep, strings, your favorite viewer or any other tool. Quite obviously, I developed this code not because it’s extremely difficult to do it on your own, but because it is a valuable shell utility for all kinds of deep hacking activities that simply saves you time.Memfetch is a convenient screenshot grabber for ssh or screen sessions, by the way 😉
I chose memfetch from the eight since it seemed the most intuitive and simple. The downloadable tarball contains a single .c file and a make file. Unfortunately the installation isn’t as easy as portrayed in the above blurb. On Fedora 14 I needed to futz with the C_INCLUDE_PATH and add the kernel…/asm-generic into the path. I also had to symbolic link an asm to asm-generic in the kernel source include directory because the program wanted a asm/path.h file. Things have changed since 2007 when this program was last updated. But it works and it may prove useful. I’m sure Backtrack 5 must have this tool, or tool like this, pre installed.

This installs with the rpm fusion distribution so it was simply `yum install openshot` on Fedora 14. After running the editor it does seem useful and the GUI is intuitive. When I have to edit another video I’ll compare it to Avidemux. It doesn’t run on Windows however.
