I’ve been hearing this for quite sometime, that Adobe is coming out with an online photo editing tool. The day finally came, and if you haven’t seen, you can check out the beta release of Adobe Photoshop Express. It would be unfair to compare this with the full version of Photoshop, its a great utility for people who wish to store & brush up photos online.
Now, the battle heat up. While PS Express lets you import & edit your Picasa, Facebook and Photobucket photos. It’s not surprising to note that the ever popular Flickr is missing. I guess, Picnik smelled whats Adobe’s cooking and teamed up with Flickr. Now you’ve Picnik in Flickr or Flickr in Picnik, beside Picasa, Photobucket etc. Beside that all premium features are now FREE. Continue reading ‘Photoshop Express’
Boxes of Bloxes

From the people who bought you ENSO. Though not officially announced, another Humanized product, BLOXES. It’s more of a low-tech geek toy rather than any serious ‘building blocks’. But true to it’s name, from computer software to cardboard b(l)oxes, they sure live up to its name.
From their blog,
Bloxes are essentially 3D cardboard Legos that ship flat, and fold up in modular building blocks that are strong enough to stand on. While they aren’t tech per se, we use them for building tables, walls, cubicles, and desks at the Humanized office. Google and Mint.com have already ordered some, and Mozilla has expressed interest in using them in their offices too.
Catch some ways to use Bloxes in this Flickr group - Flickr: Bloxes!
In another context, looking at some of their works and their philosophy. I won’t be surprised if it goes the JotSpot way. Yep! get acquired by some bigwig firm like Google.
Natural Iteraction
In their own words,
Natural interaction is defined in terms of experience: people naturally communicate through gestures, expressions, movements,and discover the world by looking around and manipulating physical stuff. The key assumption here is that people are meant to interact with technology as they are used to interact with the real world in everyday life, as evolution and education taught them to do.
Check out their amazing array of interaction work at Natural Interaction.

Of some of the freebies music albums out recently. I quite like Radiohead Inrainbows. Yorke described the album as Radiohead’s attempt to “describe…as coherently and conclusively as possible, what moves us. In Rainbows is…our classic album – our Transformer, our Revolver, our Hunky Dory”
