Mike and I finally got around to putting our pictures together from our trip to Vienna, Budapest and Prague (Bohemia). The trip was for our 30th birthdays and, sadly, I guess I’m not as sprightly as I was in my salad days. Sorry this is so after-the-fact, I know a bunch of you were interested in seeing them. Have a gander and let me know what you think! (Links to previous trips are on the bottom of the page).
The TripAdvisor “Cities I’ve Visited” Application for Facebook is a pretty interesting widget to share your travel experience with friends on the popular social networking site. It’s free and takes only a moment to set-up.

Flickr has been beta-testing videos and has finally launched Flickr Video. For the initial release, Flickr Pro members can share up to 90-second clips on their account. I suspect that, soon, it’ll be available to non-Pro accountholders and the 90s quota will be increased. For more information, take a look at the below links.
This is a re-post from a press release on my company’s site. The original article can be found, here.
If you’ve been dissatisfied with Adobe Illustrator CS2/3 Live Trace, or event CorelDRAW X4 Power Trace, you probably rely on an old version of of Adobe Streamline or, even worse, farm the work out to unreliable Indian companies for small change. Read more
