Cool Site Of The Day.
Need some instructions?


User manuals have always been frustrating for me. Many products come with hefty manuals. Some have several manuals.

I file them away. But with the number of gadgets, appliances and accessories I have, it's a daunting task.

So, I can never seem to find the exact manual I want. Many manufacturers make manuals available online. So that's where I usually go.

When that fails, I visit UsersManualGuide.com. It has hundreds of product manuals from major manufacturers. They cover electric toothbrushes to television sets. Handy! The manuals are in PDF format, so you'll need the free Acrobat Reader.

My one complaint is that the site is missing some major brands. And not all my products are there. But, I suppose that would be an impossible task!

http://www.wordquests.info/ <--- very cool

In only 5 minutes of searching i came up with something so cool... (perhaps not completely logical. )

Remake/remodel

At today's Cool Site, you'll see some stunning photographs. Then, hold your mouse over one. You'll see what it looked like before it was "remade." It should serve as inspiration for all aspiring photographers.

Note to the future
You can send yourself text messages as reminders. And you can schedule them for any time in the future. Know someone who's forgetful? You can schedule a reminder for them, too.

Send a thank you card
If you're like me, your heart goes out to all the brave men and women serving overseas. They're making a huge sacrifice for our country.

So wouldn't it be great if you could say "thank you" to them? Well, today's Cool Site offers an easy way to show your gratitude.

You can send a free, printed postcard to soldiers stationed overseas. There are a number of designs from which you can choose. Just select one, and click "send this card." Then enter your name, hometown and your message. The card will be printed and sent to a soldier.

The site is also accepting submissions for postcard designs. Children between six and 14 can submit designs. You'll find details how to submit on the site. Oh, teachers, wouldn't this make a great class project?

Zap Google cookies
The recent release of AOL subscribers' search history should be a warning. Our searches often are archived.

Unfortunately, these searches could be tracked back to us. They could reveal glimpses of our private lives.

Which brings us to Google. This popular search site uses cookies. An ID number can link the searches you make over any period of time. But, you can do something about it.

Download G-Zapper. It will show you if you have a Google cookie on your machine. I did. But I was able to remove it and block future Google cookies.

When you visit the site, just click the download link. This will install the basic version of G-Zapper. There's also a Professional Edition that requires a payment; it will look for cookies from other search sites. It works on Windows 95 or later running Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher, or Firefox 1.5 or higher.

Not the same and only for google but I got the Firefox extension CustomizeGoogle.

But the best way to deal with google cookies is not use Gmail and block all there cookies.

Extreme photography.........

Each detail is an enlargement of a section of the photo! The data this camera can capture is impressive. For example, you'll see a wide-angle shot of a stadium. Through enlargements, you can view clear shots of individuals seated in the stadium. Wow!

Not sure if this has been put up. Take pictures walking around an object, send it to this site and they make a 3D out of it:
