How to Transfer Pictures from a Camera to you Netbook using your Home Wireless Network

January 15th, 2010 John No comments

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Eye-Fi. All opinions are 100% mine.

Digital Cameras have revolutionised the way that we take, print and publish our photographs.

Previously each film could only take a fixed number of pictures which then had to be developed by a professional developer and then kept in a physical album. This flexibility has introduced a number of additional problems.

How often have you missed place your card reader or USB cable to connect your camera to your netbook, resulting in a frustrating search before you can view your photos. Or how often have you put off transferring pictures to your computer resulting in a delay in sharing your pictures or filling up or the memory card on the camera.

From  my own experience there have been times in the past where I have forgotten  my card reader and I’ve had to use my SonyPSP and a USB cable to act as a complicated card reader.

Well now there is a neat solution which makes the job easier Eye-Fi. Eye-fi looks and acts like a standard SD memory card but adds WiFi connectivity to your camera. Just by turning your camera on you can effortlessly transfer photos and videos from your camera to your computer and favorite web sharing site.

In addition the provided software automatically backs up and organizes your photos and videos on your Windows Netbook  in date-based folders, and incredibly you can also share your photos and videos on your social networking site without even having your computer on. All you need is a SDHC capable camera and a wireless router. This could revolutionise the way you manage your photo’s.

Photo management has never been this easy. :-)

This video explains how Eye-fi works.

Can you play World of Warcraft on the Acer Aspire One

December 9th, 2009 John No comments

Many of you will be running Windows XP on your Acer Aspire One, and will be fans of World of Warcraft, so I wondered if the Acer Aspire One can cope with running World of Warcraft.

After a little research on Youtube I discovered several videos of World of Warcraft actually running on the Acer Aspire One.

As you will see the game runs ok, with the game running between 7 and 10 frames per second in most levels so you may struggle in battles but it may pass a few hours if you need a mobile fix of WOW.

Check out the video below to see World in Warcraft running on a slightly upgraded Acer Aspire One (with Windows XP). I was pleasantly surprised.
