Free Passport Photo Software

Wednesday, October 10th, 2007

Have you had to pay upto $10 to get a passport photo processed? I started designing my own with photoshop after paying these fees. Now passport’s are even easier to make with the Free Passport Photo Software from ePassPhoto.

Is it Easy?
Well you need access to a digital camera. Then, according to the site, you need to take a digital photo of the subject with a neutral expression, closed mouth and open eyes to create biometrics-compatible photo.

Upload the photo to the ePassPhoto site and they take care of the rest.

Tuesday, October 2nd, 2007

Some of the funnest free flash games that I have ever played is on Armor Games. They have a whole long list of original games developed solely in the flash format.
This includes Action, Adventure, Arcade… who needs an xbox 360 anyways? Ok I need one, please buy me one? But in any case we have Armor games to distract us when we should be getting work done.

Check out this fun Arcade game called Mexican Hat Catch.

Play NES games online for free

Sunday, September 9th, 2007

Sitting bored in the office? Now you can waste more time and play NES games online for free.

Virtualnes.com lets you play all your favorite NES games online for free without downloading any software or games. Simply choose your favorite game from their long list of NES game and start playing.

One thing I don’t like about the system is that there is no way to full screen. The games have to be played on a small window within your browser. Maybe that makes it easier to hide the fact that you are playing NES games online rather than being productive?

At least keyboard support is enabled, making game play easy. Otherwise they also offer an option to buy an old NES controller to make the experience more authentic.

Free Online Word Processor: Zoho

Saturday, September 8th, 2007

Zoho.com offers Word Processing for free without any need to download any software on your computer. Now you can write documents right on the internet.

Benefits
This works great when you are sitting on a computer without any word processor. The system is easy to use and offers you to save your documents right on their website without any need to download them. My laptop is already short on hard drive space, so I have no problem now deleting Microsoft Word from my computer and using Zoho instead.

If you are trying to create a professional document, Zoho offers a variety of templates for creating great looking, resumes, documents, or even flyers.

On the one hand I found the interface a bit confusing to use at the start, but on the other hand the interface of the Free Online Word Processor is similar to Microsoft word. Even with this familiar interface it may take awhile until you’ve figured everything out.
