<p>I personally own a couple of HP printers, well i don&#8217;t really own all ,1 is mine (<a href="http://www.cartridgesave.co.uk/cartridge-list/HP/Photosmart-7260.html">HP Photosmart 7260</a>) while the others in the house belongs to my sisters.One thing that i &#8216;hate&#8217; is when i received that &#8220;ink level is low&#8221; warning, I&#8217;m the kind of person that doesn&#8217;t have the time to refill (ok..i&#8217;m lazy) but the point is i have to fork out some $$ to buy new catridges, and if you&#8217;ve been printing much you would know that catridges ain&#8217;t cheap.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve decided to buy my <a href="http://www.cartridgesave.co.uk/find-cartridge/HP.html">HP catridges</a> online at CatridgeSave.co.uk, the site offers a wide variety of <a href="http://www.cartridgesave.co.uk/find-cartridge/HP.html">cheap HP cartridges</a> and even if your not using HP do not fret, the site offers catridges for the likes of Epson, Lexmark, Dell, Compaq, Canon and more.</p>
<p>The other thing about this site is that if you ain&#8217;t a lazy person like me you can save even more of your precious $$ and take advantage of their refill kits,as for me i&#8217;m not interested in any other brands right now so i checked the Inkjet Refill Kits for HP printers and found out that an Inkjet colur refill kit, Magenta, cyan, yellow, 3 x 30 ml + 1 x 30ml Cartridge costs only Â£11.05, sweet deal if you ask me!.</p>
<p>Check out the <a href="http://www.cartridgesave.co.uk/jet-tec-hp-inkjet-refill-kits.html">Inkjet Refill Kits for HP printers</a>, i&#8217;m sure you;ll find what you need.</p>
<p>The site also offers Toner catridges, Xerox Solid Ink,  Paper &#038; CD/DVD labeling Kit and USB cables.</p>

<p>Most people are anticipating the iminent release of Apple&#8217;s iPhone, however i am not &#8220;most&#8221; people and will definitely settle for this brand new sexy looking glossy <strong>Samsung Ultra Smart F700</strong>.</p>
<blockquote><p>The Ultra Smart is a part of Samsungâ€™s Ultra portfolio which boasts a full touch screen as well as QWERTY key pad. It reflects the recent trend in telecommunications industry of touch screen user interface and, for users who are not yet familiar with a touch-screen-only user interface, it also implements a QWERTY key pad and VibeTonz technology which allows them to feel the buttons accompanied by responsive vibrations. A â€œDrag and dropâ€ method of touch screen was adopted for easier menu navigation along with music play list control for an expanded multimedia experience. Volume, play lists, brightness of screens as well as other menu control can be controlled utilizing the touch screen.</p></blockquote>
<p>Kinda reminds me of that MP3 player used in Fergie&#8217;s and The Pussycat Dolls music video (<a href="http://e-techblog.com/2007/01/11/samsung-yp-k5-featured-in-fergilicious-wait-a-minute-2/">Samsung YP-K5</a>), and did i mentioned that it has a 5 megapixel camera? <img src='http://e-techblog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

Is OpenMoko the open source version of the latest release from Apple Inc -The iPhone?</p>
<p><strong>What Is Open Moko?</strong></p>

Moko is short for Mobile Kommunikations. &#8216;K&#8217; is a tribute to all hackers around the world that build software that drives innovation into the platform. Open means that developers around the world can evolve the platform in anyway they like.</p>

Covered in a shiny red enclosure, the rail-thin Nano is flash-based and ready to withstand any rigorous use. Since Tyra takes her iPod to the gym, Gina Hughes also recommends the Nike + iPod Sports Kit to track her progress online after each workout.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

There are doubtless many online and other freeware programs out there that allows you to download videos from YouTube but still i have the sudden urge to spotlight yet another freeware product known as the YouRipper.</p>
<p>This 3MB piece of program is a no brainer to use, just download it, install , just paste the URL of the YouTube webpage you want to rip into YouRipper and the video, in Flash Movie <strong>flv</strong> format is downloaded onto your PC.</p>
<p>The only one downside as far as i&#8217;m concerned is that it only works for<strong> Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows XP</strong>..bummer <img src='http://e-techblog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Fancy yourself starting yet another social network site but instead of a piad script your looking for an open source one?</p>
<p>Well than, AROUNDMe may very well be the script you are looking for</p>
<p><img src="http://img296.imageshack.us/img296/8632/aroundmelogojf1.png" alt="" /></p>
<p><em>AROUNDMe is the perfect solution for you to bring people together around shared goals, activities and interests to form a shared knowledge network.The platform encourages participation in activities which introduces a person to like minded people. That person will form friendships with those other people thus building a social network around themselves.</em></p>
<p><img src="http://img105.imageshack.us/img105/3460/aroundmescreenshot1al9.jpg" alt="" /><br />
The AROUNDMe me script is still a wok in progress but you can download it and have a go installing it on your server, it&#8217;s a pretty nice script as far as i can tell but as the people behind it has pointed out there&#8217;s still some weeks to go before it is perfected and bugs are squashed.</p>
<p>Learn more about the script and play with the demo version<a href="http://www.barnraiser.org/software_aroundme.php"> here</a></p>

<p>A rather intresting news concerning Apple&#8217;s forray into the phone market with it&#8217;s iPhone is that the company plans to sell the phone<strong> &#8216;unlocked&#8217;</strong> which simply means that you are required to insert a GSM subscriber identity <strong>(SIM)</strong> card, the good thing about this move is that it now opens up most of the world as the target market instead of just the US.</p>
<p>If Apple decided to be tied down by the likes of Cingular or T-Mobile than there will not be marketing for the iPhone abroad, Apple could potentialy stand to make alot of money if they decided to go with Cingular or T-Mobile but<a href="http://macnewsonline.com/wp/2006/11/16/apple-iphone-to-be-sold-unlocked/"> they have decided to leave it &#8216;unlocked&#8217;.</a></p>
<p>On another note the iPhones are expected to be released within the first <a href="http://money.cnn.com/2006/11/15/technology/apple_phone/index.htm?source=yahoo_quote">six months of next year</a> as Apple has assigned the task of completing 12 million units of the iPhones to Taipei based Hon Hai Precision Industry Co.</p>
<p>This is cool news indeed, i&#8217;m looking foward to owning an iPhone sometime in the future <img src='http://e-techblog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p><a href="http://www.pcworld.com">Pc World</a> has reviewed Canon&#8217;s new offering to the inkjet printer market -The <strong>Canon Pixma MP830</strong>.</p>
<p>They have given the Pixma MP830 an 81 out of a possible 100 points which is very good indeed.According to the review the MP830 is geared more towards small-business use and it provides two key features not found on the other two previous Canon models (MP500 &#038; MP950) : faxing capabilities and an automatic document feeder.</p>
<p><em>The MP830 uses a USB 2.0 interface. Despite its office-centric features, it doesn&#8217;t include ethernet or Wi-Fi networking&#8211;and at press time, these weren&#8217;t available as options, either.</em></p>

Last Friday Microsoft launched <a href="http://aggreg8.net/">aggreg8</a>, a social networking and collaboration space for the IT community.</p>
<p><strong>aggreg8</strong> allows IT Pros to &#8220;mix-n-mingle&#8221; and a forum for developers to share scripts, tools, or best practices, or even to just connect with others within the profession.</p>
<p>Kevin Remde, an IT Pro evangelist for Microsoft, wrote in a <a href="http://blogs.technet.com/kevinremde/archive/2006/11/10/aggreg8-home-for-it-pros.aspx">blog post</a> announcing the service.Aggreg8 has no relation to the RSS reader project that carried the same name. <strong>Philip Roche</strong>, the creator of that program, was approached in July by Microsoft if he would sell the domain names. Both Aggreg8.com and Aggreg8.net were sold for $5,000, he said in a<a href="http://www.philroche.net/category/projects/aggreg8/"> blog post</a>.</p>

Microsoft&#8217;s answer to Apple&#8217;s iPod is Zune and it has been reviewed by Wall Street Journal, New York Times and ABC News.</p>
<p>Priced at around $250 to compete with Apple&#8217;s 30 gig iPod, Microsoft will launch a digital download store Ã  la iTunes, where Zune owners can buy songs for about $1 each and albums at prices comparable to iTunes&#8217;.</p>
<p>JONATHAN SILVERSTEIN of ABC writes:</p>
<p><strong>With Apple in firm control of more than 70 percent of the digital media player market, Microsoft has its work cut out for it, even though close to 70 percent of Americans don&#8217;t even own a player yet.</strong></p>
<p>David Pogue at New York Times writes:</p>
<p><strong>â€œCompetition is good and all. But what, exactly, is the point of the Zune? It seems like an awful lot of duplication â€” in a bigger, heavier form with fewer features â€” just to indulge Microsoftâ€™s â€œwe want some oâ€™ thatâ€ envy. </strong></p>
<p>While Walter S. Mossberg over at Wall Street Journal writes:</p>
<p><strong>Overall, the iPod and iTunes are still the champs. Still, I expect the Zune to attract some converts and to get better with time. And this kind of competition from a big company with deep pockets and lots of talent is good for consumers in the long run.â€</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://img516.imageshack.us/img516/7204/93516mediumdv6.jpg" alt="" /> FastStone Image Viewer is a nifty cool image viewer freeware, it is a fast, stable, user-friendly image browser, converter and editor.</p>
<p>FastStone Image Viewer for Windows boasts a nice design already, but you can customize it to your liking with several skins. Clicking a thumbnail puts a larger view of the shot in the lower-left pane, and you zoom in simply by dragging the mouse around. Though its image-editing tools can&#8217;t compete with those offered by a full-featured suite, there&#8217;s still enough here to make a decent amount of tweaks to your shots. You can resize, crop, remove red-eye, and adjust color, brightness, and contrast.As usual it supports all the major image types &#8211; <strong>BMP, JPEG, JPEG 2000, GIF, PNG, PCX, TIFF, WMF, ICO and TGA.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Not too long ago there was a craze for the &#8216;word cloud website&#8217;, basically it&#8217;s a site that has some keywords on it and you could buy (or rent) that keyword and use what ever link you want.</p>
<p>For example, someone might buy the word &#8220;Hosting&#8221; for the site and place his/her hosting affiliate link which could bring in some $$ especially if the site that displays this keywords receives much traffic.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Back in the good old days of photography the only way you could view your photos were to process the neagtives after you have taken a pic, but thank goodness for digital cameras that has made it even easier for people to view their pics, be it via a PC,Notebook or just plainly from the LCD panel on the camera.<br />
<img src="http://img128.imageshack.us/img128/1976/digpaxalt1ya7.gif" class="left" alt="" /><br />
But if your like me you probably had some family members who are not tech oriented and you couldn&#8217;t possibly send them an email with a zip file of your latest holiday pic attached becuase they don&#8217;t even have an e-mail address!.<br />
<span id="more-328"></span><br />
Well the simple solution could be to just process the pics or print them out from your printer at home&#8230;.or you could just use the <a href="http://www.iwantoneofthose.com/digital-photo-frames/index.html">Digital Photo Frame</a>.</p>
<p>The Digital Photo Frame is an amazing breakthrough tchnology that allows you to showcase your digital pics (duh!).</p>
<blockquote><p>It&#8217;s wonderfully simple to use, all you need to do is plug your camera (or computer) into the frame via a USB connection (lead supplied) and then you can download single images, or the whole lot. You can even load images onto the frame from key-drives and card readers. You can then, via a simple menu, edit the transition time and effect between every image. It&#8217;s easy to add or delete images, and the frame automatically sizes your pictures to fit. It will stand either as a landscape or portrait frame.</p></blockquote>
<p>Check it out at <a href="http://www.iwantoneofthose.com/digital-photo-frames/index.html">I want one of those</a></p>
