"Adobe Photoshop is the market leader when it comes to photo retouching, image editing, or even creating new images from scratch. However, for most people's uses, it may just be too many features to wade through, too much money to spend, or too complicated to use. Thankfully, there are plenty of powerful alternatives that also have tons of features. Here's a look at five of the best."

No keyboard :( but a fantastic pricing. I want a couple (one for my son, one for me). I hope they deliver on their promise. And that CPU better deliver all the stuff it says too.

Mindset list for the class of 2014. They will now be awash with a computerized technology that will not distinguish information and knowledge. So it will be up to their professors to help them. Members of this fall's entering college class of 2014 have emerged as a post-email generation for whom the digital world is routine and technology is just too slow.

File-sharing is a complicated beast. Some files are too big to send in emails; some need to be seen by a lot of people; some need to be private; some should be public. There are a ton of different applications that want to be the host for all of your files, but drop.io stands ahead of the pack.

free time lapse photography software for a while now and finally found Perios. Perios is a tiny download and very, very simple to use. For my first movie I set the software to record one frame every five seconds but I feel I need to continue experimenting for improved results. Once the software captures all the still pics you have to export them as a movie file. I then added all the credits and music in Movie Maker. Too easy!!! The only hassle I had with the software was trying to get it to work with a webcam. I eventually just stuck with the built in camera in my laptop. Possible Time Lapse Subjects - flower blooming / plant growth - spider spinning a web - tracking shadow movement throughout a day - artwork being made - a classic game of chess - the classroom working - lego construction - snail race - decomposing fruit - butterfly hatching - traffic outside your window for surveys - is the movement of the lunchtime crowd fractal? - fill up and ant farm and record tunnel creation - growing of crystals - your fish tank - clouds across the sky / storm coming

I've been mulling over doing a screencast so I made a small survey looking for the best choices for Mac screencast apps. This is not a review since I haven't had time to actually try them all out. But if you're looking for what's available and some links to useful reviews, this is a good starting point. Screenflow and Snapz Pro seem to be excellent choices although I had people recommend iShowU and Zing to me as well. I tried iShowU and wasn't too impressed. I tried Screenflow and thought it was pretty amazing.

Yes that's correct this is a Wi-Fi Detector t-shirt. Way too cool for the geek in your life (or, the geek you are).

One man's opinion: The more I use these, the more I really don't care for iWork. Sure, Keynote makes some darned pretty presentations, but NeoOffice (and OpenOffice for the matter) cuts the mustard quite handily. For real polish, you still can't beat Office 2007/2008, as much as I hate to admit it. What do you think? Oo.org 3.0 looks to rock out loud too. Is iWork irrelevant, or is it just me? Reread the repost below and I'll give this some more thought next week when I'm back from vacation.

jsut for some types...

a good type software...free...too

It's free and doesn't require any pre-planning with the site - you don't even have to register. All you do is go to the site and give your "virtual" room a unique name. Then others can log-on, too. Up to eighteen people can participate in the call.

here to watch and find tech about global robotisation, and their equipments... also the interfaces are shown too.

Looks pretty nice, and has some nice effects and good variety of genres of graphics. The Mindmap tools don't seem too strong, though.

YouTube has a global audience, so if you want to reach as many people as possible, you'll have to make sure subtitles are available for your videos. You'll want closed captioning to reach the deaf and hard of hearing, too. Thankfully, that process has shifted from relatively easy to an absolute breeze in recent months. Here's how to make it happen.
