Hate Asking Strangers To Shoot Your Private Photos ? Get the Quick Pod



Imagine enjoying yourself on a nice vacation on some remote island with your wife. You have the camcorder and a digital camera to capture those wonderful moments of togetherness but there's a small problem - you don't find anyone around to shoot a photograph of you and your wife together.

And even when there are folks around, you don't feel very comfortable asking them to capture pictures of you. So how do you take back these precious memories ?

Worry no more, here's an easy solution that put you back in the picture frame with your wife without the help of a passerby.

Get the Quickpod - a sort of a monopod - and screw your camera to one end of the rod, set the timer [most camera has one now] and press the shutter release button.

Your arm will be in a comfortable position and will not appear in the photo. A highly recommended camera accessory for couples that are on a honeymoon.

Available at Amazon Store, Quick Pod [via Uneasysilence]

How to Download Contacts from Facebook To Outlook Address Book

Facebook users are not too pleased with the "walled garden" approach of Facebook. The reason is simple - while you can easily import your Outlook address book and GMail contacts into Facebook, the reverse path is closed. There's no "official" way to export your Facebook friends email addresses or contact phone numbers out as a CSV file so that you can sync the contacts data with Outlook, GMail or your BlackBerry.

PhishTank Detects Phishing Websites by Digg Style Voting

OpenDNS, a free service that helps anyone surf the Internet faster with a simple DNS tweak , will announce PhishTank today. PhishTank is a free public database of phishing URLs where anyone can submit their phishes via email or through the website. The submissions are verified by the other community members who then vote for the suspected site. This is such a neat idea as sites can be categorized just based on user feedback without even having to manually verify each and every submission. PhishTank employs the "feedback loop" mechanism where users will be kept updated with the status' of the phish they submit either via email alerts or a personal RSS feed . Naturally, once the PhishTank databases grows, other sites can harness the data using open APIs which will remain free. OpenDNS would also use this data to improve their existing phishing detection algorithms which are already very impressive and efficient. PhishTank | PhishTank Blog [Thanks Allison] Related: Google
