A Joomla Installation

I just finished working on a site threatened with extinction. The Collectanea site that I created on CollectaneaNet76 took me the whole day to finish. There were a lot of premium Joomla Templates to choose from, thanks to the work of anonymous donors. I worked on the site on and off today, [...]

Your Daily Inspirations

This is how this present Arthemia theme should look like if I had uploaded the images I use for this blog in this same server.  Unfortunately, I use pictures I have uploaded in my PhotoBucket account and so I can’t really make use of the magazine-like layout of the theme to full advantage.

FlexigenSoft Goes Freeware

Great news for us freebie-ers.  FlexigenSoft, the maker of AccelMan, AccelClip and ActualDoc has gone freeware.  I have written reviews of those softwares here (look under software review) and I must say that they are a cut above all other freewares available.

The Software I Use

I don’t normally talk about the software I use in writing articles, whether for the printer or for a website. The computer is like the typewriter (remember that old machine from the last century?).
