With all the fuss on the internet about Google Wave invites, here’s an excellent short video that explains pretty clearly what Wave can do for you. I’m really looking forward to it. (via lifehacker)

From recipezaar, here’s an recipe for jewelry cleaner that works beautifully - even better than the jeweller’s dipping solution I pay way too much for. It’s very basic, very simple and very effective.
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 tablespoon dish detergent
1 cup water
1 piece aluminum foil
1. Heat water in the microwave for 1 or 2 minutes.
2. Cut a piece of aluminum foil that roughly covers the bottom of a small bowl.
3. Pour hot water into bowl. Place salt, soda, and dishwashing liquid into bowl. Place jewelry on top of foil and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes.
4. Rinse jewelry in cool water and dry jewelry completely with soft cloth. Discard solution after use and make a new batch next time.
