I just sent them translation to Croatian language, so this is kind of little update about translation of FLVPlayer4Free although useful just for those who speak Croatian language (Serbian and Bosnian as well).
Nice little FLV player, better than most out there I have to say.

Send self-destructing email with BigString
We’ve all been there. It’s late at night. And you send the email equivalent of the drunk dial. That e-mail message you can never get back. Well, it turns out you can. Kind of.
BigString is a new web-based email provider that lets you create self-destructing e-mail. Here’s how it works:
You login to BigString and send an e-mail. Your recipient receives that message. But if you decide you’d rather withdraw the e-mail, you can go into your sent mail box, find the message you’d rather not have see the light of day, and click “self destruct.” While the message header will still show up in the recipient’s they won’t be able to read it anymore.
That’s because BigString converts your email messages to image files. When you click “self destruct,” what you’re actually doing is deleting that image from the server. Now when someone goes to read your message, they won’t be able to access the image anymore.
Of course, this means they also won’t be able to copy and paste from your e-mail. And if you happened to send something inappropriate in your subject header, you’re out of luck.
As a standalone e-mail service, BigString has the usual bells and whistles. You get a 2GB mailbox with a free account. For $2.50 a month you get 5GB and 30 minutes of video mail storage http://www.bigstring.com/mail/main.php

A while back, Tucows was known as one of the internet’s top sources for downloadable freeware and shareware. But if you kind of forgot about Tucows, what with Download.com, FileHippo, and hundreds of other download sites out there, you’re probably not alone.
Well, this week Tucows launched a major new site design that highlight’s a new focus: solutions. You can still find and download boatloads of great software from Tucows. But the web page now prominently features a solutions center with advice for everything from what software to use when setting up a blog or website to instructions on how to use BitTorrent.
There’s also a social aspect to the new design. Registered users can vote articles up or down and popular articles are featured on the front page.
Tucows has been publishing these articles for a while now. In fact, many of them are written by Download Squad alum Jordan Running who left our humble blog earlier this year to become a resident expert over at Tucows. It’s nice to see the site give these excellent tutorials and explanations a more prominent place on the home page. http://tucows.com/
