Digital Photograph archiving, PhotoShop Elements 10.0 and Texas Instruments - Photoshop Elements 10.0 1. As you may have read last week, I bought Photoshop Elements and Premiere 10.0 . I plan on doing a full video/blog review of Elements 10.0 in the next couple of weeks. For now, it will suffice to say that Elements has a ton of features and a lot of flaws too. You get a lot for your money with this packag...

I love free stuff! 1. I've been watching a very interesting video blog lately, the eevBlog . It's hosted by a zany Australian electrical engineer, David Jones. He was a full time design engineer unti...
Lego Mindstorms Suduko solver. Notice the title of this post is 'Learning with the Arduino' and not 'Learning the Arduino'. Since I've had my Arduino, I've learned a hell of a lot about electronics. I've learned much more than I ever learned through formal education. The best learner will be someone that is self-motivated. My int...
