More tips
My tip this week was about what you need to make killer online slideshows. There’s a program for mac, or pc called ShowIt Web 2.0 and it works super. Just check out my Gavin Seim Photography site to see implementations. All the sideshows you see were made with it.

Organize and Backup
Here are the links to the automatic backup soultions we discussed this week.

(Mac)
Carbon Copy Cloner download (free, with donation suggested)
Carbon Copy Cloner Rating Source (highly rated)

Synk (this is what Gavin uses) ($25-45.00)

.mac web based storage (good for small things, but low capacity) (mac Only)

(PC)
2nd Backup 2007.1 (highly rated)

Carbonote. A new online based backup with lots of space (PC Only)

Now for hard drives

Here’s my favorite external hard drive enclosure
Aluminum case, usb or firewire, for 38.00

Then you’ll need to add a 3.5″ IDE hard drive.
Heres a 250 GB Seagate Barracuda ($80.00)
Hers a 500 GB version ($159.00)

That will do it. Except my movie suggestion Facing The Giants

Have a great week all… Gavin
