If you use Photoshop on a regular basis then you will find this photo to be humorous for it's real likeness of Photoshop. I wonder how long it took the person who did this to come up with the idea and how long it took to put it together.
On a side note. You will notice on that I have made some changes to the DJ & Producer Damion Blog. I have added page numbers at the bottom of the blog to navigate to older posts. I have also added the playlist for this month up on the right hand side to listen to while you read the current blogs. I have also added a new sharing function for every post. To make it easier for you to share these blogs. I will continue to add more features as I learn how to add them. Hope you enjoy.
Windows Mobile 6.5 launched earlier this month and people weren’t very impressed. Windows Mobile 6.5 was just release on October 6th this year and the company is already working on updates for this version with Windows Mobile 6.5.1. This may be because a lot of users felt that the operating system really didn't change much from previous versions. This doesn't give users of the current platform much reason to be convinced in staying with the windows platform. Windows Mobile 6.5 does have a new and improved web browser and home screen so I guess that is a plus.
Windows Mobile 6.5.1 will however bring several significant improvements, including a rewritten, finger-friendly contact application, according to Download Squad. Microsoft is also adding several UI elements, including buttons and check boxes with a visual refresh that will hopefully address how most of the OS still looks like it's from 2002.
Windows Mobile 7 is expected out next year, and it will reportedly represent a major shift by including more finger-friendly controls and a new version of Office Mobile. But until then, it sounds like Windows Mobile 6.5.1 might be the way to go if you're stuck with a Windows Mobile device.

A new technology is about to come out that will make it a breeze to get connected online. A consortium that includes Intel, Cisco, and Apple is set to release new technology called Wi-Fi Direct that will turn a slew of gadgets into hotspot.
Going Wi-Fi is about to get a lot easier. For many consumers, setting up an in-home Wi-Fi connection point is something of a hassle. Before you can enjoy the convenience of logging onto the Web without cables and wires, you need to hook up some gear and create your own "hotspot."
But that's set to change come mid-2010, when a tech upgrade will make it easier for users of consumer electronics to exchange files between electronic gadgets.
The new technology, called Wi-Fi Direct, will be built directly into consumer electronics and automatically scan the vicinity for existing hotspots and the gamut of Wi-Fi equipped devices, including phones, computers, TVs, and gaming consoles. Owners of most existing Wi-Fi-enabled devices will be able to upgrade to Wi-Fi Direct with a simple software download.
3D graffiti, whether it’s in chalk or paint, on walls or the street, represents a new way of combining the mastery of Renaissance art techniques with the gritty, ephemeral qualities of amazing street art.

Check out some of these talented artists and be awed by their works of art.
Adobe, which makes Photoshop, introduced Photoshop.com Mobile for iPhone, a Photoshop Lite program to tweak and add effects to camera phone shots on the iPhone. It's not to be confused with its big brother Photoshop desktop application, which sells for $599.
The Photoshop iPhone app also lets users access photos stored on Photoshop.com and view them on the iPhone, but Adobe has plenty of company with that feature.
Said features include in the app are rotating, cropping, using filter effects, and adjusting exposure, tint and saturation. Photoshop mobile includes "sketch," to make pictures look like drawings and "soft focus," for a slight blur.
