REALLY USEFUL LINKS

I have put together a collection of links to web sites which I hope you will find useful.

Firstly, my thanks to the nice people at Dynamic Drive who publish excellent DHTML and JavaScripts for general use. A handful of which are used on this web site. Keep up the good work!

VISIT: DYNAMIC DRIVE

Secondly, I would like to mention MYSAFEUK, for whom I recently did some photographic and design work. They have a product here which is seriously hot stuff! Billed as "The Credit Card's Perfect Partner" it's ideal for keeping your credit card safe, especially whilst out and about or travelling abroad. Well worth a look!

PHOTOGRAPHIC SOFTWARE

Photoshop is the essential tool for any digital photographer. However, it doesn't come cheap, so I looked around for the best deals and I reckon you'd be hard pushed to beat Misco.

SKYPE
Free calls to other Skype users and local rate anywhere in the world? - It's true, I have been seriously impressed with Skype. In the course of my business I make calls to Europe. Norway, for example, is not renowed for being cheap, far from it. However, through Skype I can call a Norwegian Mobile Phone for just 12 pence per minute, and it tells me how much I am spending too.

What's more, when I am out "on the road" with my Laptop, as long as I have an internet connection, I can use it as a telephone. And, if I am calling other Skpe users it doesn't cost a penny! Well worth looking in to.
