JAlbum 7.3 Released

October 1, 2007, 16:15(EDT) By Eric (a.k.a. TweakHound)

JAlbum is a gallery software that makes web albums from your digital images. We aim to make it the easiest to use and most powerful tool in this category – and always keep it free! So far over 7 million photo albums have been published with JAlbum and the software is started every 5 seconds somewhere in the world.

I use it and recommend it. See the JAlbum home page for more info.

Laugh of the day…

Stealth Windows update prevents XP repair

September 27, 2007, 14:04(EDT) By Eric (a.k.a. TweakHound)

A silent update that Microsoft deployed widely in July and August is preventing the “repair” feature of Windows XP from completing successfully.
