Comeks has a large collection of colorful images for you to choose from. You just have to upload your photo from your computer or mobile phones and you can start adding “stuff” to your photos.

Extensions on Google Chrome by May.

We all know Chrome, the new browser started by google. It started with the most basic and common features that everyone asked for. But now, we see Google slowly is adding more and more features to Chrome.


One of the reasons why lots of people still aren't using Chrome as their primary browser is because of lack of extensions (plugins, addons) in it. But firefox has a vast collection of addons available.

And according to the Google OS blog, it is expected that we will see Chrome with extensions by May 2009. A session on Chrome extensions at Google I/O conference documents revealed some information that give hints of extensions coming to Chrome.

Learn how Google Chrome makes it easy to write extensions using the web technologies you already know. This talk will cover the basics of the extensionsystem (distribution/packaging, installation, updates), as well as the different APIs to enhance with the browser.

I wonder if this will work out the right way for Chrome?

Using emoticons on Twitter.

I think we all use twitter. And twitter is a great place, but it's missing something: emoticons.
Lot's of users use emoticons, but they use those boring emoticons :)
And since you can't use graphics on Twitter...

Here is TwitterKeys, a website that has a compiled list of UTF-compatible characters that you can use as emoticons on Twitter.
Using them is very simple. Just double-click the emotiocn you want to use, and press Ctrl + C to copy it. And just Press Ctrl + V to paste it where ever you want to display it. You are not restricted to use them just on Twitter. They can also be used on other sites and social networks.

MergePDF: Fuse your small sized PDF documents.

You may have lots of small PDF documents. It's a bit annoying to have all those files in one document. So here is MergePDF. this is an online tool that you can use to merge PDF documents into a single file. Now you can combine all of your multiple, small sized PDF documents to one document.


With MergePDF, you are allowed to merge up to 10 PDFs with sizes not exceeding 5MB, for each process.
If you think that the file size limit is rather small, you’ll have to do it using desktop applications such as Acrobat PRO or some other PDF related desktop software. If you’re merging large files, then most probably you don’t want them to be lurking around the internet anyway. Even if MergePDF stated that the files that are uploaded are removed right after the merge process is completed.

The only thing that is not safe in itself is the data transfer as we are not
transferring through SSL. If our users send us an email requesting SSL, we will
happily address that and provide upload over https.


This is a cool and simple tool for doing a simple task and it won’t cost you anything. It merges PDFs, no manipulating no editing,that’s as simple as it gets.

Whspr: receiving emails without giving your email address.

well, here is Whspr: a new messaging tool that you can use if you want to receive email messages from people you don’t know without handing them your email address. You can use this on twitter, in forums and chat rooms. this way you can keep your email hidden from other users


For example: let's say you want to advertise a job opening on Twitter, and you
don’t want to share your company email address for safety. Some applicants may
not want to post a public @reply, and they can’t send you a direct message if
you don’t already follow them. Include a whspr! URL, and they can reach you
discreetly.


What the tool does is create a URL/page for you to share. That page contains a message box where anybody can type in their message. It’s like having your own contact form or comment from that you see on blogs and websites. You can set an expiration period for the message page.
The messages sent to you through the Whspr page will then be forwarded to your email. The service also uses Captcha to prevent spam and you have the power to delete your Whspr page anytime. Just remember that this is just for receiving. Replying to the messages will definitely reveal your email address.

Leaked photo's of the HTC Google android G2.

Well, here at Studentspedia we inform you on the newest gadgets and services. And I know lots of people were looking out for the Google phone (google G1), Well here is the next one. The G2 is the Google Android powered smartphones by HTC.


the HTC T-Mobile G1, didn't quite catch the spark. And although Google announced an unlocked version of the Android G1 around the 2008 holidays, people still preferred the iPhone 3G. But this will change soon, as Gizmodo uncovered some leaked photos of the new handset which appears to be quite authentic.


The first thing you would notice is its shiny plastic finish, which is very much welcoming from the pale gray look on G1. Also this time there is not a physical keyboard present, which is a little disappointing. Though the touchscreen is large, but we know the current Android interface had some issues.


The back side has a new surprise a 3.2 Mega Pixel camera, though even mid range phones for vendors like Nokia boast a 5.0 Mega Pixel camera these days. What would be interesting is the video capabilities of the G2 ( don't know if it actually has this).

The current rumors suggest that this handset would hit the shelves this summer though there are still no official announcement. The only thing I personally like to see is a prettier interface than the current one, but the only thing we can do for now is wait for the official word on the release.
