The updated 3.0.8 patch notes released today have an interesting, yet significant, change to mining. Miners will now only hit the node once to get all the ore and associated loot. digg story

Sync Facebook and Outlook Contact Photos with OutSync - I started by saving Facebook profile photos and manually adding to Outlook contacts. Thinking there’s surely a application for this, I found it on Lifehacker. Outsync is simple, it matches Outlook contacts to Facebook friends and adds their photos to Outlook. Which for me means I now have most contacts on my Windows Mobile Phone with pcitures now!
