  • How to find new research topics =)
    • How to come up with new ideas, tricks of the trade for those times when you need some inspiration.
    • How about trying to get an idea from a (sometimes) funny title. Hit refresh to get a new title.
  • Useful Free Software (as in both beer and speech) to help you in your research activities:
    • Qt-Creator an IDE for everything c++, not just for Qt.
    • GLSLDevil these guys are really nice for sharing their glsl debugger. (Unfortunatly only free as in beer)
    • Kile a TEX "IDE". Because after coding you'll need to write about it.
    • Gimp an image editor to help you with your figures. In v2.8 we finally get a single window interface. Wiii
    • Kdenlive a video editor for your cinematographic needs.
    • Mplayer simply the best video player and converter (mencoder) around.
    • Imagemagic an image conversion software. To batch convert those figures to eps.
    • Inkscape a poster editor for those not so lucky times ;)
    • Okular this pdf viewer is even better than "the original". It supports animations and embedded videos.
    • Meshlab to convert, clean and edit your meshes.
    • GQView an awesome image viewer. This thing can display huge figures with no trouble at all. Like vim for text files.
    • unicode rxvt terminal the app that I use the most.
    • Firefox a browser to view this page correctly. (Since chrome doesn't support my cursor blinking)
    • Check the links at the bottom of this page. Those are the most important ones ;)
