PICKS OF THE WEEK (software/hardware?):

Steve’s Pick: Kodak Zi8 Kodak Zi8 digital HD video recorder

  • Friend bought it
  • GREAT video and when combined with an external mic (it has a jack) a powerful combo.
  • So nice his daughter wanted to take it–instead of a Flip that she had access to.
  • Weakness? Digital zoom (always a weakness)
  • small memory card comes with it, but it is SD so buy a big one!

Josh’s Pick : Connectify

  • This allows you to make your Windows 7 PC into a hotspot
  • The technology was originally slated to be included in the GA version of Win 7 but Microsoft scrapped it but left the code still in.. Someone finished it off

Tony’s Pick: SendOutCards.com

  • Friend sent me a card using it
  • I often forget to buy cards for holidays/occasions
  • SOC allows you to go online and send physical cards easily.
  • You can even send them your handwriting, and it becomes a font.
  • Also opportunity to make $ if you choose to go that route.
