In an attempt to wean myself from a Tetris(Quinn) addiction, I have followed JoAnn's lead and signed up for this brain training site. The first two weeks are free so I'm cramming to see if I can get it all in before the $10/month kicks in. (Yeah, that's so dumb it shows my need for brain training!) So far, I'm impressed, and I really don't need to get any better at Tetris... more about Brain Games... |

VersionTracker |
|
http://www.versiontracker.com/macosx |
THE place to go to find new (or updates for) useful software, much of it free, AND to get 'Customer' Reviews' before you download something. Worth scanning periodically. Note that you can choose your specific OS (eg Tiger, or even OS 9) And you can Sort by Categories, then scroll down and click Freeware... |

I stumbled on this ezine (About This Particular MacIntosh) yesterday. It is a monthly magazine written by and for users in real English. It has excellent tutorials, articles, reviews, standard computer magazine stuff, but far better written. In a back issue I found a tutorial on Photoshop layers which was wonderfully clear, no jargon. This issue has a responsive "letters" section, a tutorial on the "merge" command in Photoshop, an article on uses for "Preview" after the Leopard introduction of "Quick Look," four helpful reviews, etc. I've signed up for a (free) subscription. I think the back issues will be a mine of information.
