Picasa

First to recommend

Description

If you are like most digital camera users and have files and files full of photos, but spend way to much time looking for just the right one, or if you have several different digital image programs on your computer, maybe it's time to simplify with Picasa.

One of the many free Google tools available on the web, Picasa is the easiest and most intuitive/user friendly program I have found to organize and manage digital images. Photo thumbnails are always visible and are listed by the date they were taken (and you can change details like this if you find that your photos were stored with the wrong dates attached). There is a very cool "timeline" feature that lets you scroll through your images by date. You can tag items so they are easily searchable, create web albums to share with friends and family, manage the printing process, upload and order prints online. It is a very feature rich program.

In addition to the organizational features, Picasa also includes all the basic photo editing tools that most people need for everyday use. There is even a magic "auto correct" button that lets Picasa decide what to change for you. But don't worry - Picasa always saves the unedited original for you in case you don't like the edits you make.

I can't say enough good things about this program - I don't know what I'd do with out it.

FreeLoader Solar Charger

First to recommend

Description

This looks like it covers all the bases with connectors... a great idea. Plus it will store the power for up to 3 months, so you can charge the solar powered charger anytime, stick it in our pocket and have it ready when you need it - even on a cloudy day or inside. It will also charge via usb cable.

according to the website, it will charge an ipod for 18 hours, a mobile phone for 44 hours and a psp for 2.5 hours... that's pretty impressive!

Power Strip Adapter (Set of 5)

First to recommend

Description

you don't have to get rid of the power strip to make it more functional... just use these adapters to create the space you need for all the plugs and adapters that are just too big to coexist peacefully side by side in the power strip.

What a great idea - ear buds with a built in volume regulator so that you can protect your kids' ears! No matter what the ipod or other mp3 player volume is set for, the Ultimate Ears delivers a healthy volume for young ears.

USB Carabiner flash drive

First to recommend

Description

I'm not sure I'd trust my life with this USB Carabiner if I were rock climbing, but it sure looks like a handy way to keep data at hand by clipping the carabiner onto your backpack, briefcase, purse, belt or keyring. And it's pretty, too!

Sandy — your personal email assistant

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

this is the greatest new freebie out in cyberspace!!!! While i'm not crazy about the name of the service (I want Sandy), I have become quite reliant on Sandy to remind me about meetings and other events in my life. She's so sharp... she'll email me and send me text messages. Currently free and in beta, it's definitely worth looking at if you could use a personal assistant... and really, who couldn't use one????

Jott

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

In my quest for moving toward a more organized life, I love sites like Jott. This free web service turns your voice mails into text messages that you can send to yourself or to friends.

I Jott to myself a lot - particularly since I have Jott on the speed dial of my phone and can access it from anywhere. Great for reminders and for any time that it's just easier to speak than to type.
