A few months ago a colleague of mine implemented a generic widget for simple web-based customizable surveys. This widget is hosted on www.widgetbox.com . Despite the fact that the widget did not store survey results permanently (instead it sent one email for each vote to the owner of the survey) it got quite a good user feedback. So let me introduce .... Free Online Survey Widget Version 2 ! This post gives you a short introduction how to set up the widget for your own web-page. But let me start with it's features first: Complete customizable survey widget (number of questions, text for questions, feedback type (one-off, many-off), colors, fonts, basic behavior, etc. Voting results are available as diagram within the widget (customizable) Voting results are stored on tec-it.com.

A colleague of mine just stumbled over a very useful generator for test data . He used it for preparing some test cases for our label printing and reporting software TFORMer . Below are 2 screenshots - the first one shows how to adjust the general characterics of the test data to be generated: The second one shows the results: Hope this tool is also helpful for you!

Warning! Non barcode-related post ;-) Are you listening music while developing software? If yes - the same is true for some members of TEC-IT. A few days ago I read about a free music portal named Jamendo . Because I think it is worth trying it here is some advertisement: Jamendo is a community of free, legal and unlimited music published under Creative Commons licenses. Share your music, download your favorite artists! My favorites (mostly progressive and trance) until now: Opener of the Ways (by Solaris), Psychonaut (by Solaris), Encre (by Silence), Wood (by Greg Beaumont), Pretium Doloris (by A.n.K.h). Highlight: You can listen to music without registration. There is also a little draw-back: Music download is free but I was unable to manage downloads on Windows Vista (not sure if it depends on Vista or something else). However - MP3 download worked with FF on Ubuntu. Hopefully the Jamendo team will fix this issue shortly.
