First off I wish the background color didn't appear as soon as you start reading it... so irritating. Second I want to get the word out on film frame rates. I work in visual effects and can say that 24 frames per second is perfect. Any more and it looks like cheap home video recordings. We've had the technology for many, many years to do more than 24, but no one did because it looks awful. Now the film industry has this idea where they need new gimmick every few years in order to stay afloat, and since 3d didn't work out so well they're leaning on this frame rate thing as a crutch. the more you know...

Cintiq's are awesome, but I use an intuos 4 everyday at home and work. I would definitely cal them super duper useful once you take a few weeks to get used to them. Mind you this is for animating/visual effects work so it may not apply to everyone. Workspaces That Make it Work with Tablets On the Desk |

almost forgot, dropbox is a free app that gives you 2gb of online storage for free, so you can send invites to people to share files. I use all of these almost everyday because I work in video post-production. Such a convenience. Pushing the Envelope? Webmail & ISP File Size Limits |

yousendit.com, or sendspace.com are great for sending stuff for free with limits of 100mb and 300mb respectively. It sends a link through email, but you don't actually attach anything so there's no worries of email file size limits. Pushing the Envelope? Webmail & ISP File Size Limits |
