Still looking for a new car

I’m still looking for a new car because i don’t like my Saxo VTR anymore. I’ve been looking at a number of cars and i really like the Fiesta ST. The only thing that is putting me off is the rising costs of petrol. Do i need the power in the ST? Not really because i don’t drive a lot to be honest. It is however nice to drive a good car and you can feel proud driving a good car. There...

In a months time i will post what the source...

PicNik – excellent site for editing photo’s

I discovered PicNik at work from one of my colleagues who introduced me to it. Basically PicNik is an online photo editor that works in your browser. Think of it as an online Photoshop but doesn’t have as many features. I was amazed when i first saw this because you can do some pretty cool stuff that would maybe take an hours time in Photoshop. Not only that but you can import all your photo’s...
