The I.T. Life

For $27 (CAD) you can have a official 2GB Lego thumb leg drive. Now the price isn’t too bad, however the fact they are only selling them at 2GB is kind of odd.

So, photoshop has a new toy/site out now called photoshop express. So basically it is 1 part a flickr/picasa/whatever rip off, because it allows you to have albums, store up to 2gb of photos and have a public gallery. It is secondly, 1 part a super super light version of photoshop. I have yet to truly play with it but here are my first observations.

- It claims to link to various other photo sites, but it neglects the #1 site, flickr… why would it even do this?
- It isn’t anything new. Flickr, Picasa, and all the other sites out there allow you to rotate, adjust color, light, and the basic other little things that need to be done to almost every photo.
- 2gb of storage… I know it is just a public beta, but Adobe can afford a lot more than this, and when many sites give unlimited storage, this is a joke

I like the iPhone, but I’m a space whore. My 40GB iPod Video is over half full. Argue with me all you want about how much of this I use, it is still half full. I would be interested in the iPod Touch, or the iPhone alot more if it had a decent size hard drive. Well thankfully, there will now be 16 and 32GB models coming out soon.
