With all those rockin' photography tips we've covered here lately, I'm sure you've had more than enough time to enjoy the fruits of your labor with some pretty full photo galleries! But the downside to a full digital photo gallery? Uploading them to your Facebook, Flickr, Photobucket, and blog — it can take forever jumping from one site to the next. Don't you wish there was some sort of one-stop shop to upload your pics to all your favorite sites at once?
Wish no more my clicking comrades, cause Pixelpipe is here to cut your uploading time to a minimum. Just select which social sites you belong to (like Photobucket or Facebook), sign in as you normally would, then the next time you have a full batch of pics to upload, just send them to Pixelpipe, and it will upload your photos to as many sites as you want. Simple, fast, and free! That's my kind of photo party.

Oh man! I hate to disappoint this week, but I think our Hills crew left their cell phones at home when they went to Cabo. If you caught last night's episode of The Hills I'm sure you spotted the gadget goods and heard the tech talk amidst the quarreling between Justin Bobby and Audrina. Can't they just make up or break up already! (Well I guess that's next week). . . So on that note, gear up to take the short-yet-sweet tech quiz! And after you test your techie knowledge don't forget to check out how to get last night's looks!
Each just $35 that's way less than having your iPhone dipped in a precious metal, like Pharrell did. Come to think of it, he probably wants that $15,000 or so back since the 3G came out. . .
Today's families are much more likely than any other household types to have cellphones and use the Internet, according to a study by the Pew Internet & American Life Project. The phone survey of 2,252 adults, between Dec. of 2007 and Jan. of 2008, also shows that families use those technologies to stay in touch with each other throughout the day. The study also found:
About 89 percent of married (or partnered) parents with children own multiple cellphones.
Sixty-six percent have high-speed broadband Internet connections in their homes (compared with a national average of 52 percent).
Seventy percent of couples in which both partners have cellphones contact each other daily just to say hello, 64 percent contact each other to coordinate schedules, and 42 percent of parents contact their children daily using a cellphone.
Do you think smartphones and the Internet keep your family closer?
Last week at the Apple Event in Cupertino, CA, Apple Chief Operating Officer, Tim Cook, announced an interesting fact; that Apple had surpassed Dell to become the top supplier of notebooks in colleges and universities. In previous years, fifteen percent of students had Apple notebooks, now the number is closer to fifty percent. Tim then popped this pic up on the big screen and challenged the audience to find a PC. I myself was a Dell Inspiron girl in my early days of University, and I rarely lugged it to class with me — still a paper and pen note taker back then. What about you? Did (or do) you take a laptop to class with you? And if so, was it a Mac or a PC?
Revenge! Blackmail! Seduction! Last night's Gossip Girl brought out the backstabbing villain in quite a few of our favorite Upper East Siders and the loving friend in others. Vanessa, Blair and Chuck found themselves in a messy triangle, while Lily and Bart attempted to lay down the law on their new family and Dan and Nate continued their bromance. Did you notice all the shiny phones and texting amid the drama and pretty party dresses?! Take my quiz and find out! Photos courtesy of The CW
