Over the last year we've covered hundreds of different applications, but there are only a handful that are both worthwhile and small. You may recall that we've done a post with 15 ultra tiny apps, all of which were 250KB and under in size. My favorite tiny program of the year, however, was not on that list!
John Slater, the Creative Director over at Mozilla, has given some early insight into the Firefox 3 website redesign process. Just like with Firefox 2, a new website will be accompanying the next big milestone release of the browser which is planned for early next year.

It wasn't too long ago that Hulu launched into their private beta - October 28th to be exact.

The only way you can try Hulu is by getting an invitation, and those invitations haven't been available in abundance... until today!
Welcome to Daily Downloads brought to you by CyberNet! Each weekday we bring you the Windows software updates for widely used programs, and it's safe to assume that all the software we list is freeware (we'll try to note the paid-only programs).
