is the first image search engine on the web to
use image identification technology rather than keywords, metadata or
watermarks.

Compression Software
Blubox
- Blubox
(PC)
Windows
Blubox
is a quick and easy-to-use
software application for compressing and sharing digital photos and
other files. Its main advantage is that it offers the ability to hugely
compress image files without sacrificing overall picture quality.
Blubox is similar to zip but uses powerful image compression algorithms
to compress over 60 popular image formats. It offers
professionals the
ability to send large amounts of image files via email at hugely
increased speed. For a wedding photographer, for example this
could
mean uploading an entire album's-worth of images to a printer in a
fraction of the time it takes now.
Unlike most Zip tools BluBox also includes a fully featured Preview and
Slideshow feature, so that saves you having to extract your images to
view them. Note that currently there is no Vista 64 bit
support so do
not buy it if you are running this version of the OS.
YemuZip

Mac
YemuZip
is an easy-to-use
application for making zip files. Just drag, drop, name your zip file
and you are done.
The Finder's Archive function makes zip files that contains
Mac-specific information that, when extracted on a PC, looks like
garbage. YemuZip lets you choose between a PC-compatible format and a
Mac format that preserve all the Mac-specific metadata.
Telephone Services Software
Skype
- the whole world
can talk for free
Windows/Mac/Linux/Windows Mobille
You can make free audio and video calls from your computer to other users anywhere in the world. For a small fee calls can be made to landlines and mobile phones. You can also send SMS messages and hold conference calls and conference instant messaging chats.
