So you finally decided to go for it. You will have an online presence. Is time for your very own webpage! But wait a second, what is this HTML code you are talking about? CSS who? img source what? And that’s when you remember you skipped those web development classes when in college. But not all is lost! there is hope.. a light at the end of the tunnel. In fact, even if you are able to move swiftly with hand coded html, sometimes we need to create a quick page for testing purposes (or for that family member annoying us with their great idea that will make millions! we just have to make them a webpage for free).
As you know, there is a very well known web development tool called dreamweaver. It’s a nice program that allows you to visually create websites and keep track and update every page on your site with templates. The problem is the cost. So to overcome this issue, I will present you with two free alternatives to web development that have many of the features found on dreamweaver. In other words: A dreamweaver alternative.

I admit it! For this topic I had a 3 pages long article in mind, and then I felt tired
Instead I give you a video that explains how to easily and painlessly (and for free!) save Wikipedia or any other sort of online articles to a PDF file. Just in case the web servers that host your articles go down (or in case the article is erased). Continue reading »

At first glance, this article may appear complete out of place, but with more and more portable MPEG4 video recorders available at cheaper prices, I thought it would be a good idea to present an easy way to edit footage from such cameras. Besides, this article contains a number of links to useful free software to either playback or edit video.. now that everyone wants to be a youtube star :3 Continue reading »

I am not going to lie, I used to do this for a living. And although my job title was different, I called it “Distortion of the concept and perception of real beauty on women.. mmm, technician”. Yep, those were the days. When I spent countless hours with a digital pen on my hand, erasing “imperfections” and adding “features” to innumerable images. Continue reading »

And now, for something completely different. Up until a month or so ago, i used to have metroPCS mobile phone service… you know, the ‘$50 a month unlimited everything’ deal. It sounds nice and all, but there were a few little things that made me feel as if I wasn’t getting such a great deal. Continue reading »

To be honest, I did not even know that such a thing could exist. In a way, you could say that I am old school… and I was hoping to one day buy me a large and heavy scanner so I could convert all my books into digital format. However, the guy(s) at TopSoft decided to laugh at my ignorance and created an exquisite piece of software that makes use of what you already have to OCR documents: a digital camera (or smartphone) and your computer.
