"You can get decent photos out of a standard, consumer-grade digital camera, but a little post-processing can turn them into fantastic wide-angle landscapes. You don't need to be one of those people who can explain the concept of lateral chromatic aberration to get truly eye-catching digital pictures. With a few shutter clicks and some free, cross-platform software, you can easily mesh standard digi-cam shots into true landscapes, fix one photo's deficiencies with another, and create layered photo collages. Let's take a look at how to use the free, open source application Hugin to make two basic kinds of panoramas."
"JoikuSpot, developed by Joikusoft, is FREE and SECURE mobile software solution that turns S60 Smartphones to WLAN HotSpots.
"Check out this live London webcam overlooking the Abbey Road Presetrian crossing, made famous bt the launch of the Beatles music album, Abbey Road.

"The Iain MacMillan photograph gracing the 1969 Beatles album Abbey Road made it one of the most famous album covers ever. It’s such an iconic image that whenever you see a group walking single file on a zebra crossing, you automatically think of Abbey Road. It’s been imitated, honored, lampooned, and recreated by countless artists."
"curl is a command line tool for transferring files with URL syntax, supporting FTP, FTPS, HTTP, HTTPS, SCP, SFTP, TFTP, TELNET, DICT, LDAP, LDAPS and FILE. curl supports SSL certificates, HTTP POST, HTTP PUT, FTP uploading, HTTP form based upload, proxies, cookies, user+password authentication (Basic, Digest, NTLM, Negotiate, kerberos...), file transfer resume, proxy tunneling and a busload of other useful tricks."
"OpenProj replacement of commercial project management applications is highly disruptive for existing vendors and important to the entire industry," O'Brien says. OpenProj reads and opens Project files, a function that makes migrating from Project much easier, and OpenProj runs on Linux, Unix, Windows, and Mac OS.
"When we say the system is slow we mean that it isn’t responding to our input in a reasonable time, or taking too long to complete a task. This can happen when there is *another* program using too many system resources, starving *your* program of resources, causing it to run slowly"
"The gPhoto project is one of those open source gems that works so well that it is easy to forget it is there. Plug in a digital camera, and the photo management app of your choice -- be it F-Spot, digikam, gtkam, or another -- identifies the camera, then quietly and expertly retrieves your photos with little to no fuss. But for most cameras, gPhoto can do considerably more, including just about any function supported by the camera's firmware. That includes USB image capture, a function normally thought of in the context of always-attached webcams, but available for nicer digital cameras, too."
