I’ve finally received my copy of the latest Mac operating system, the Mac OS X Leopard. The official website is still counting down towards the launch date but we are already receiving it; some slight advantage to start the day earlier here in Asia I guess. Apple announced that the new operating system will be arriving 26th October 2007 and it did, timing is as punctual as I ordered my iPod Touch previously.
What if you have files that need to be uncompress (unzip) but they are in formats you just don’t have the software do it? Most of us encounter this when we are downloading files from the internet, where author compress the files in formats like 7z, RAR, ISO, etc.
Wobzip is an online service that helps you to unzip almost any compressed formats, and that includes these following formats for now:
7z, ZIP, GZIP, TAR, BZIP2, RAR, CAB, ARJ, Z, CPIO, RPM, DEB, LZH, SPLIT, CHM, ISO
To uncompress files, browse to your file and click uncompress from the website. Wobzip currently supports up to 100Mb of single compressed file. Wobzip will list all files for download after it has successfully uncompress it.
In a nutshell, Fauxto is an online application that not only functions like Photoshop but also looks like Photoshop, but the only difference is – it’s free. Fauxto allows you to open an image or start with a new canvas. It implemented many Photoshop concepts like:
It even supports image filtering options like Sharpen, Blur, Find Edges, Noise, Emboss, Enrich, Posterize, Clouds, Invert, Desaturate, Grayscale, Colorize, Hue Saturation and Contrast/Brightness. It’s amazing that a web application can actually cover these much.
Fauxto is free, but requires sign in. It only runs on Flash Player 9, so any version lower than 9 will need upgrade. Download and installation takes about 1-5 minutes, depends on connection speed.

About a month ago, Steve Job announced a range of new products in the Apple’s “The Beat Goes On” conference and introduced iPod Touch in the last session of the conference.
