The mistery of #Portal

During my search for a free Portal implementation, some times ago I've find #Portal, a content management system (CMS) written with Microsoft .NET technologies, using Microsoft SQL Server.

On the official site of the project you can read that "the goal of #Portal is to allow everyone - even the people who don't know the slightest about web technology, to be able to manage a website by using simple and efficient web pages."

All is wonderful... but there's a problem... is #Portal live now? If you sign in for a registration, the confirmation email is not sent to you... if you post something on the little forum of the project, no response are given. #Portal seems to be only a future project. Why?

Is there something that have news about it?

Skype, a P2P Telephony application...

An interesting free application that must be tested... Skype.

Skype is free and simple software that will enable you to make free calls anywhere in the world in minutes. Skype uses innovative P2P (peer-to-peer) technology to connect you with other Skype users. Skype calls have excellent sound quality and are highly secure with end-to-end encryption. Best of all, Skype does not require you to reconfigure your firewall or router—it just works!
