Tungle Me!

I don't know if this is a good thing, or a bad thing, but it does sound like a FUN thing! I'm looking for a way to set up a family conference call with my father. We've used WebEx, but that required my brother to initiate the call. What we need is something that I can initiate wherever I am. AND, something easy for techno-phobes and "illiterates" to easily operate!! Well, let's check this out...



PS - Something new to me on this YouTube video is the use of Privacy Enhanced Settings. I have no idea how it works, but let me know if it doesn't!

Photoscape Plus

Here's a photo program that looks appealing - Photoscape:



My only question is - Do I really need another photo program? I'm going a little nuts as it is. I use PhotoShop CS4, Adobe PhotoShop Elements 5, Picasa, and Windows Picture Gallery. It's getting confusing!! Online, I use Flickr and Picasa, and have accounts also with PhotoBucket, Slide, youTube - YIPES!

eBundled Books

Do you own a Kindle? Well, I'm one of the lucky ones that does. BUT, how do I get free content for it? I've used the Kindle store on Amazon, but have recently discovered another way: SitePoint Books are now available in the MOBI format, which apparently is what the Kindle uses. I'm about to try it out. I took advantage of the SitePoint offer of 5 e-book-bundles (5 books, each in PDF, EPUB, and MOBI format) for $29.95, and have already downloaded them. The video embedded here shows us how easy it is to access these books on the Kindle. If it works, I'll soon have some new books available for my viewing pleasure!




BTW - I think the EPUB format is viewable on iPhone. I'll save that adventure for another day!

Read It Later Digest

Read it Later, an add-on for the Firefox browser, has added something new: a DIGEST. This nifty tool will automatically categorize the articles you save, so that they're easier to read when you finally get around to it. As an added feature, you can create your own "folders", or topics. Unfortunately, they've added a price tag. Even $5 is a deterrent to me - but it may not be for you! Check it out!!
