iPhone App Overload? Never!
In: Cool Tools
25 Jun 2009I love my beautiful iPhone and the ten million apps and games I have on it. Well, there’s about 10 apps and the rest are games. Buckingham Palace Mysteries, Bookworm, Yard Sale, bloons, Myst (which I still hate after these many years of trying to complete that incomprehensible *%#&)….love the games. And I love the [...]
Scribd–what it is and why I don’t care about it right now
In: Cool Tools
23 Apr 2009Ok, its a self-publishing archive. I get it. They call it “democratized publishing.” I get that. Even our President has a Scribd page with 100 friends. We can use it to embed documents into websites. Like that. Check!

Vanishing Point
In: Cool Tools
11 Apr 2009I completed the next lesson in PS CS4 Classroom in a Book. Correcting and Enhancing Digital Photographs. This one was pretty easy because I skipped most of the camera raw stuff.

Masks are like taping off things you want to retain like taping off the trim when you paint a room. [...]
I’m learning Photoshop once and for all
In: Cool Tools
1 Apr 2009I have PS CS4 Extended. I thought I could learn it on my own. Ha! Then came the endless stream of books that I either bought or brought home from work that I just knew would tell me everything if I stuck them on a shelf near the computer. I did make efforts to [...]
Twitter…
In: Cool Tools| Opinion| funny bits
26 Mar 2009Ok, I’m not completely getting it. It is great to twitter and read other people’s tweets at conferences but as Jenny Levine and others point out, these little batches of information about a specific event or topic are ephemeral. Well, I guess you could save these “threads” if you start using an entirely [...]

You Suck at Photoshop

13 Aug 2008This is my new favorite series! It is so great to laugh hysterically while learning new stuff. I do suck at photoshop but I’m really trying to get some skill on. http://www.mydamnchannel.com/
