Snapfish is a service by HP that allows anyone to send their digital photographs to be printed into many kinds of products. I have printed some photo prints from them, which turned out looking pretty good.

One good thing about Snapfish’s photo prints are that they are chemically developed (pardon my lack of knowledge of photography nomenclature) instead of being printed by an inkjet printer. This is the same kind of photographs you get when you send your films to the photo developing shops (although the processing seems to be different). You can get the inkjet printing from those “instant” printers outside photo developing shops. Prints that are chemically developed have longer lifespans (sometimes up to a hundred years) and will fade slower compared to inkjet prints.

I will be able for awhile to another country from 27th Jan to 13th Feb. I have tried to write enough articles to cover most of the time but I am unable to fully cover the entire stretch of time that I’ll be away. Do bear with me when no posts are made and I will try my best to make up for it when I come back.

Best of luck to all.

It probably wasn’t cheap to register some of the first domain names and these are some of the first .com domain names to be registered.

Interestingly, for those not in the list, Microsoft.Com wasn’t registered until 1991, Yahoo.Com was registered in 1995, and last but not least, Google.Com was registered on 15-sep-1997.

For those of you who are still using Windows XP, you might notice that file sizes are only displayed for files. Folders only get a blank size which does not help at all.

Folder Size is a program that allows you to see the total sizes of your folders. This includes all sub-folders and files in them, allowing you to find out which folders are taking up the most space on your hard drive. This is especially useful when you want to clean up your hard disk drive.

For those who are using Vista, this guide wouldn’t help you as Microsoft removed some of the functionality needed for Folder Size to work on Vista. Mac OSX users would probably be laughing as this is a native feature in Finder. Curse you lucky Mac users!
