If you've ever tried to visit a website after it has been spread all over the Internet to sites like Digg, you may have encountered what is known as the Digg Effect. This means that a website gets so many people viewing it all at once that the server overloads and the site crashes. You then have to check back later in the day to see if it's back up, which can be a hassle.

If you're someone who does a lot of media work, chances are you run a multiple monitor setup. Maybe you're a gamer who just loves to see as much of the action as possible. Whatever the reason, finding a desktop background image to fit accross both screens isn't as easy as finding it for just one monitor.

The fine people over at Smashing Magazine have come up with a post of 70 beautiful images that will span over your dual-screen setup. Ranging from nature all the way to comic and games, there's bound to be an image there for you.

Have a look, but keep in mind that they look best if your monitors are the same size and height.

You know the scenario so well; open the fridge and ransack the cupboards but decide "Theres nothing to eat". Well the solution to this recurring problem has arrived with the website Supercook.

Type in what items you've got lying around the kitchen and Supercook will come up with a list of recipes for you. It lists entrees, starters and desserts too if you feel like skipping dinner. In addition it will suggest recipes if you type in just one ingredient and want inspiration.

SuperCook shows you what ingredients you're missing to make a certain dish, a helpful way to write your shopping list.

It's a free service and you don't have to sign up for an account either. If you do choose to sign up though, it will track what you enter for future recipes.

Microsoft's upcoming operating system, Windows 7 is now available for free. Before you get too excited, it's not a final copy, it's a Release Candidate, which means you're helping them test an unfinished operating system. It might not be 100% compatible with the software on your computer, so if you do plan on giving it a shot it's probably best using your home rather than your work computer.
