Web Resizer!

Hi friends, here is a website that graphic artists, website designers will love. Hmmm, this website allows you to reduce the image size, sharpen, resize, crop, rotate and many more..

Yes, I have checked out this site and is a very good one. You can choose the new size, sharpen the image, set contrast, brightness, above all choose the quality of the image. Best thing is it allows you to compare the original and optimized files. You might wonder that any graphic tool will allow you to do these all and maybe many more things. But this tool is online and for sure absolutely free!!

Speaking Websites!!!

Hi friends, do you want to impress people who visit your website, here is a website that I think will help you attain a little bit of that.

Hmmm.. wondering why the title of this article is so different, because the website I am talking about is really cool and is different too. Yes friends, www.vozme.com allows visitors to your website listen what is there on your website, I am sure I am confusing you. Ooops! In simpler terms, having a script embedded on your web page, vozme reads out all the text a visitor selects on the web page. There are examples you may go through while setting up this script in your web pages.

I find it very interesting and innovative!
