Imagewell done
November 8th, 2006

One of my favorite little image editors went beta 3 on Tuesday. ImageWell is a free image editor. ImageWell lacks all the fancy tools and functions of Photoshop, but packs just enough features to be added to the dock. In the time it takes to open Photoshop, ImageWell is open and ready for action (go figure with a company name like xtralean). This is the main reason I like the little guy. It makes simple tasks of editing images a breeze.
While you can purchase a version for $14.95, I choose to stick with the basic version. If you’re a basic version user now, you can upgrade for the low price of $9.95 during the beta 3 period.
I have to ask, is anyone else out there using this little gem?
CSSEdit App
November 7th, 2006

Since it’s recent release, I’ve heard nothing but good things about CSSEdit. CSSEdit is a stylesheet editor for the OSX platform. It’s made by MacRabbit and and comes with some pretty nifty features, including one that makes use of x-raying a page to see the underlying structure.
While I’ve yet to try CSSEdit, I’m looking for reviews or opinions from anyone who has. It’ll be a tough task to overtake my current code editor of choice BBEdit.
Ah, Technology

I came across this little beauty in the SkyMall magazine. You know, the one located in the seatback of the airline seat in front of you.
Yes, it’s a Head Massager and it can be yours for only $49.95 plus delivery!
If only we could find a way to do good with technology.
What other great items have you came across?
Blogging Worldwide
November 2nd, 2006
I’ve been doing a bit of traveling as of late (as noted by the lack of recent posts). I’ve been traveling the east coast between Jersey, Philly, Indy and the single trip south to Raleigh. While spending lots of time on planes and in airports, I’ve continued to hear people discussing one topic, Blogging.
Seems that no matter where you go, people are talking about it. Business people are talking about corporate blogs. Family members are discussing how to post information about upcoming family birthdays and holiday plans. Frequent travelers are looking to blogs in airports to catch up on news, sports, and business. I don’t think I’ve seen such a large number of people all focused or looking to the same media source for information in a long time.
As blogging continues to increase, I’m sure that new methods of catching up on blogs (RSS…hint, hint) will begin to be seen more in airports and cafe’s around the world. Blogging has been around for a long time, but seems that just recently it’s seeped into mainstream culture as part of our everyday life.
I’m sure we’ll all continue to blog and provide insight into the everyday happenings, either trival or ever so important, but regardless of nature, a reader base has begun to grow and this can only be a good thing.
