Free photo rescue program saves the day

PhotoExtractorThanks be to the good people at Mabusse, developers of Photo Extractor, the free windows application that can extract otherwise lost photo data from a corrupted SD Card.

Enjoy the software author's webpage:

Do You take a digital camera with You to the holiday? Have You ever seen a message on the display about the flash card is unreadable and will be formatted now?

Google is awash with crappy demo versions of similar products that do the same thing, only for money. Photo Extractor is free, functional, and saved the day. If you have a damaged memory card, before you give up and send your photos away into the ether, try Photo Extractor. Some of the photo rescue programs I saw while hunting around wanted as much as $90 for a functinoally identical product. Worse, some of the photo rescue programs show you your unrevoverd photos and stamp "DEMO VERSION" across the top of them, effectively holding your photos hostage for $30 in blood money. Screw you guys.

Photo Extractor just works, works well, and doesn't try to exploit my panic over my lost photos for their financial gain.

I don't have any eGold, but if I did, I'd, as the author of Photo Extractor suggests, "transfer 10 USD to my e-gold account 1324912. "

Didja notice? Firefox Three has a wacky new UI?

Did you guys notice the new UI that came with the recent update of Firefox 3?

Backward!


Forward!

At first, I hated this.
But, getting over the initial shock, now I like it.
I think, though, UI design peaked in 2007 with the advent of the Ribbon. I wish there was a full-on ribbon version of IE available. I might even use IE then.
I've been using Firefox3 at work for quite a while now. It seems more stable-- but that's probably becuase I don't have any extensions enabled on it.

Wishywashy loser, am I.
