This is a very simple program that can create small animated GIF images for websites or whatever you need them for. It is a stand alone application and can be installed on a pen drive.
Simple to use just add the images that you want to create the animation with and then create your transitions and then save the .gif file.
Well if you have ever wanted portable apps on crack this might just be the application for you. With USB keys getting up to 128GB these days trying to find stuff to fill it is about half the fun! Well just ran across this application the other day, it puts Portable Apps to shame and has over 200+ applications that are easily updateable and easy to download new ones. It also allows you to easily add applications that are not part of the general install package.
The ultimate package comes with over 200+ applications and download at about 200MB and unzips to about 600MB. I finally have everything I could ever want on my work laptop without having to worry about actually installing software on it!
Why it took so long for these products to actually materialize I will never know. I always have kept a USB drive on my key chain but I have had issues with it breaking or being a little too bulky or fragile. These new ones from Lacie are all metal and the shape of your keys so they fall in line super easily. Since they are a whopping $27 for 8 GB I think I will be picking one of these up when they come back in stock. Check them out: Lacie Key Drives
Belkin does a convergence on USB power supply and surge protector for $25
80-in-1 card reader does it all for $17
Sony Micro Vault Tiny is for 4GB of flash fun about the size of your fingernail
All in one USB, SATA, eSATA hub
Sandisk Cruze Micro 4GB pen Drive for $54 on Amazon
For those of us who love the multiple monitor setup this is a great alternative to buying an expensive video card. It just plugs into your USB port and on the other side is DVI or Analog VGA and runs $119. I am still waiting for those monitors that just plugged into your USB ports that should be nice especially with the new USB 3.0 standard defined as basically insane
I think that these products are a great idea. They use the power over USB to charge AA batteries that can be used anywhere. I think this is a great alternative to throwing away batteries and is super convenient to changing batteries when they are dead. Thing is they kinda come at a premium at about $8-$10 for a set of two but would be great for something like a wireless mouse or keyboard.
