So with the recent release of Snow Leopard for Mac came an updated Quicktime called Quicktime X. But what's the new features?

Big features include new cleaner look, visual chapters, easier to share videos across multiple platforms, quick capture, easy trimming like the iphone, and the best is simple way for you to record your screen for use in tutorials in special programs.

As cool as all these features are many professionals are mad about the downgrade it has for converting video. Quicktime Pro was about to transcode into many helpful formats for video editors but good news, we still keep Quicktime Pro!

Basically Quicktime X is a polished version for the average consumer and still gives you the clean look apple is known for. Check it out especially if you are in to doing tutorials in FCP, After Effects, or what ever else.

Google Voice Finally Released to Public

Well i finally got the e-mail informing me that i could now sign up for Google Voice. Now many people who don't know what this is, will be excited to hear it's free, has more features than you could ever think of for a phone, and is just simply awesome.

Google Voice is basically a free number you get from google that allows you to have one central number you can give to people. It's amazing because it sends the call to all your different types of phones via; Cell, Home, Work, etc. that you specify. Not only does it help forwarding to where you want it, you can also view all the voice mail you receive from your computer anywhere in the world. Google Voice also provides features such as completely free SMS(text messaging) to all phones right from your computer, call screening, listening in on voice mails as they are being made, and the two biggest features are call recording and personalized voice mail messages.

While you are in a phone call you can simple press 4 and you call is now being recorded and saved to your google voice account so you can listen to an important conversation you had earlier. Personalized voice mail also is huge because you can theoretically have a different voice mail message for everyone of your contacts(if you really want to take the time). This is big so that you can have ones for specific groups such as friends and family vs. clients or job related types.

One last feature is the ability to have you voice mail audio e-mailed or texted to you in text format of what he/she said soon after the caller recorded it.

For a complete list of those features and more check out Google.com/voice

Billy Mays, the burly, bearded television pitchman known for his boisterous hawking of products such as Orange Glo and OxiClean, has died. He was 50.

Tampa police said Mays was found unresponsive by his wife Sunday morning. A fire rescue crew pronounced him dead at 7:45 a.m.

There were no signs of a break-in, and investigators do not suspect foul play, said Lt. Brian Dugan of the Tampa Police Department, who wouldn't answer any more questions about how Mays' body was found because of the ongoing investigation. The coroner's office expects to have an autopsy done by Monday afternoon.

Early this afternoon, Billy May's son twittered that his dad was dead. Such an awful thing to have to do!
