Sumopaint: Online image editor June 30, 2008
Posted by Jeffrey Vergara in : Web , add a comment
The world may not really need another online image editing application. After all, there’s already Picnik, Adobe Photoshop Express, FotoFlexer, and dozens of others. One of our favorites is Splashup, which has a very desktop application-like feel. And for the life of us, we can’t decide if Sumopaint is just a simple Splashup clone or just an incredibly similar web app.
The two web apps have extraordinarily similar user interfaces and you can apply a similar array of effects to images you upload. You can also import images from online various online accounts, although Splashup is the clear winner with the ability to import images from Flickr, Picasa, Facebook, and other web sites, while Sumopaint only supports Snap.
Check out an image of the two apps side by side after the jump and you be the judge. Separated at birth, or imitation is the sincerest form of flattery? After all, both look a bit like PhotoShop or the Gimp.

WiX: Web page creation made simple June 30, 2008
Posted by Jeffrey Vergara in : Web , add a comment
WiX is a web site creator that lets anyone design attractive (or not so attractive) web sites. You don’t need to know the first thing about HTML or CSS to use WiX, because everything is drag and drop-based.
While WiX might sound a lot like Google Page Creator or Weebly, WiX pages are entirely Flash-based. That means you can use the WiX editor not just to create standalone website, but also Flash objects that you can embed in other web sites. There’s even a MySpace tab in the editor in case you want to be one of those people who make ridiculously flash (and Flashy) elements that show up on MySpace pages.
WiX offers a fair number of templates that you can modify, but you can also create web sites and other objects from scratch. When you’re finished creating a site you can publish it online, but the URL will start with www.wix.com. You can also generate embed code that will let you include anything you create using WiX on another web site.

It has several versions, including a free one that lets you control your computer remotely using a different mouse and keyboard. Advanced versions add in remote printing, drag-and-drop file transfer, and support for several people controlling the same PC simultaneously.
If you are responsible for the maintenance of several machines, however, you don’t feel like actually visiting them in person. If this is you and you want to remote control your computers for free then use LogMeIn Free to obtain your remote control fix
Easy To Use Remote Access Software - ShowMyPC June 23, 2008
Posted by Jeffrey Vergara in : Tutorials, Windows , add a commentI am always on the look out for a good and easy to use remote access software because I very frequently provide computer help remotely to users in other part of the world while I am sitting at home or office. Sometimes seeing the problem with my own eyes is much more easier than explaining it over the phone or via forum. Here is another easy to use free remote access software called ShowMyPC which works with firewall and without port forwarding. Pretty similar as Crossloop and TeamViewer. Let’s see if ShowMyPC is good enough to beat my favorite remote access software TeamViewer…
