Re: ClipMate Clipboard Extender

I use AceText for this. It's very similar to Clipmate but AceText is actively being developed where as Clipmate last update was March 2013. A quick look though the Clipmate forums leads me to believe Clipmate is dead. AceText is definitely worth a look.

Re: Please Don’t Use HootSuite; Ow.ly is Dangerous

I use HootSuite but I didn't want to use the Ow.ly shortening service. So I did a quick google search an came across a greasemonkey script which automatically creates a Bit.ly link when it detects a URL in your HootSuite tweet (the same way that tweetdeck does it) --- the script works on Twitter.com too. The script supports your bit.ly API key or uses the general one if you leave it blank.

Problem solved.

Here is a link to the greasemonkey script: http://userscripts.org/scri...

When will Google learn to include it's Google Apps customers to products like this. I have to maintain two google accounts because Google Apps doesn't support Google Reader and now Buzz. It's annoying.

I've been trying to get my prints to match my screen. The problem is the prints are consistently coming out too dark. I shoot RAW and the file for print is converted and exported to an sRGB 8-bit JPG. Yes, I have calibrated my monitor using the Spyder3 Elite, 2.2, D65. I'm also using the correct printer ICC profile (for soft proofing) while making sure not to double profile with photoshop. In other words the printer isn't managing the color, Photoshop is. After doing all this my prints are still coming out dark. After extensively researching Google, forums and buying a few books on color management I'm still no closer to solving the problem. One proposed solution I came across suggested to brighten the image by a stop or two. Doing this will make the image on the screen look terrible but the print would theoretically now match the screen. I can't imagine this is a method that (pro) photographers use and I'm not too keen on playing these kinds of guessing games. Another idea I have floating around in my head is that my monitor is too bright. If this is the case how am I supposed to know where to set the brightness level especially since my monitor doesn't have an OSD which would tell me what brightness setting the monitor is currently using. Calibration is for colors, not for setting the brightness level. Is there a standard brightness level I should be using? If so how do I go about setting it?

Thanks for any suggestions.

This is a great widget, thanks for creating it.

One problem I've having is that all the date/time stamps are stuck on "Wednesday 16:33"

Any suggestions?
