Did you know that the average person spends 11,862 hours in the bathroom, or one year four months and five days, in a lifetime? That's according to Roto-Rooter who has launched their "Pimped Out John Sweepstakes." They're starting this contest because the "crapper" as they say, has not really been revolutionized since a flushable toilet was invented back in 1898.

YouTube is continuing their quest to promote creativity. The rumor has been floating around the Internet for quite some time now, and finally Chad Hurley, co-founder of YouTube has confirmed that they plan on sharing advertising revenues with users who submit original videos. Good news for inventive users, bad news for those who just post copyrighted material.

Paint.NET is an photo and image editor that is about as feature intensive as you can get while still keeping it a fast (and light) application.

Here is your week in review with Sunday's Summary! If you missed something, check it out.

Recently, I stumbled across Wayfaring, a visual map creation service that uses Google Maps.

My oh my how the time flies. It seems like only yesterday I was writing about the Firebug extension for Firefox and singing its praises about how much it helps out when working on websites. The time has come to move it out of Beta and into the hands of millions of people...watch out because Firebug 1.0 has been unleashed! :D

Now I've seen some interesting Firefox themes in my day, but this one surely takes the cake. Mario comes back to life in this theme and the intricate details are sure to leave a warm feeling in the heart of anyone who pounded away at the Nintendo controllers trying to beat King Koopa and his kids.

There's no need for a white-board or paper the next time you need to organize your thoughts and make a diagram.  Instead, try bubbl.us, a mind-mapping product powered by flash that makes great use of Web 2.0 technology. This is for anyone who needs help organizing, or planning and sorting out your ideas.

Opera Mini has only been available for one year and it has come a long way. In fact, it almost has as many users as the desktop version of Opera! According to Opera there are 10 million active users of Opera Mini with Opera Desktop almost dropping to second place with 12-15 million.

There's a social network for just about everything these days, why not music? iJigg went live on January 15th and is a Digg-like social network for music. It's not the first social network for music by any means, but to my knowledge, it's the first Digg-like one.

Googlebomb: A prank where people attempt to cause someone else's site to rank for an obscure or meaningless query. Also known as linkbomb.

Missed a season of your favorite show? Want to "try" out a TV series before you buy the whole season on DVD? Don't have a TV, but have highspeed Internet? I'll stop there, but the excuses/reasons for using Peekvid are probably endless.

And yet, more Vista news! I’m sure in the next several days, there will continue to be more Vista news and announcements. Yesterday, on the Windows Vista Blog, they announced that any computer running Windows Vista can go to a North American T-Mobile HotSpot from January 30th until April 30th for free, “blazing-fast broadband” Internet.

Just because Vista will be the latest Windows operating system doesn’t mean that everybody will run out and upgrade. For one, it’s expensive. Secondly, some people simply don’t like change. Upgrading to the latest operating system is last on their list, especially if they’re still getting used to XP.

Ever since October when Google announced that they were purchasing YouTube for 1.65 billion, lots of big questions were asked. The most obvious was whether or not Google was going to keep the two services separate. It was quickly answered that in fact, the two services would remain separate.

If you haven't heard of Windows Crossbow then you shouldn't be too ashamed. It is the next version of the Windows Mobile operating system and is not a codename for the next desktop operating system like some people might think (the codename for that is Vienna).

There has been at least one other known spamming trick with MyBlogLog, and now there's another.  This time, the trick will get people to join your community without your knowledge in just one click. LoveDeep Wadhwa found this trick, and here's how it would work:

Getting the size of folders in Windows XP has always been way too much of a pain if you ask me. There should be a built-in option to display the folder size much like how file sizes are displayed.

The One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) computers fall a little short from being a hardcore gaming machine, so they need to include an efficient Web browser that can handle the job without consuming all of the available resources. Opera is working on a custom version of their browser for the laptop but, as this post states it really isn't anything different other than a custom skin and toolbar.

As Microsoft continues their battle with Piracy, they have disclosed that one in five, or 22% of Windows installations are not genuine.
