Lunacore is a young site that focuses on writing detailed Photoshop tutorials of high quality that are easy to understand, tips, FAQ, training, advice and articles that can help users with this powerful product. Lunacore tries to show those things that are not covered in the manual or at least not in great detail.
The site doesn’t appear to be selling any product or service. It is just full of great Photoshop Tips.
There are tutorials, tips, and articles. There are 20 tutorials which give detailed instructions on how to perform certain tasks. A particularly good example is the Beautify a Face tutorial (I don’t want to debate what beauty is… this is the title Lunacore gave the tutorial, not me). It is 7 pages long, and at the end the difference between the original image and the touched up image is remarkable.

I recently received the following email:
Hi, I have an online game you may wish to link to.
Name: Geosense
URL: http://www.geosense.net
An online, one-two player geography based game. Play alone or compete against an online opponent to locate cities as quickly and accurately as you can. Simple, competitive, addictive.
Thanks,
Jeff
I checked it out, and it’s a web-based geography quiz. You can play alone or play against others (I played alone). You are prompted to locate specific locales, and it tells you how long it took you to find it and how far off you were. You get points based on speed and accuracy. Check it out at http://www.geosense.net

I have a Dell Axim x30. I love it. I’ve acquired a few pieces of software that I’m supposed to be reviewing, but I haven’t got around to it yet. I don’t expect that PCIN will focus too much on handheld computers, but if I can get a hold of some things, I will certainly review them.
Pocket PC Magazine on the other hand, is a comprehensive site and magazine to get information on handheld computers. They just recently announced their nominees for best products in a variety of categories. You can see the Pocket PC nominees here.
Convert to PDF from any application by simply ‘printing’ to the PrimoPDF printer - it couldn’t be easier! Within minutes, you can create high-quality PDFs by converting from Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and virtually any other printable file type.
I haven’t tried it, but PrimoPDF by activePDF sounds like a good utility. SnapFiles, FileForum at BetaNews, and Download.com all have high user ratings for the software.

Urban Dictionary is a slang dictionary with your definitions. Define your world.
I heard someone use the word “kife” the other day, and I didn’t know what it was. My sister pulled up Urban Dictionary, and told me what the definition was.
It appears to be a wiki-type dictionary. You can add a word, and define existing ones. The definitions can be ranked, with the definitions with the highest ranking at the top.
Be careful, since anyone can post a definition, or define a new word/phrase, some are profane and vulgar.
In case your wondering, you can see the definition of “kife” here.
From the Monterey County Herald:
In Pacific Grove, parking meters don’t grant those magical few minutes on someone else’s dime. Each time a car pulls away from a space, the meter automatically resets to zero.
And in other places where short-term parking is free, rubbing the meter maid’s chalk mark off your tires won’t save you a ticket, either: Parking officials from Monterey to Chicago drive mini-carts outfitted with Global Positioning Satellite-enabled cameras that can scan your license plate, know where you’ve parked and sense when you’ve moved the car.
This is the brave new world of advanced parking technology, where meters are triggered by remote sensors, customers can pay for street time by cell phone and solar-powered vending machines create customized parking plans for every motorist.
