SunlitGreen BatchBlitz

Need a photo editor freeware? Need the light-weight one? Then try BatchBlitz from SunlitGreen. It's a batch photo editor. And it's very light! The instalation file size is just about 1.91 MB, while the actual size (after instalation) is about 4.72 MB.

 As claimed by the official site, it's a "free, powerful and easy-to-use photo categorizer, file filter and batch editor" (SunlitGreen.com). The folder consists of two major programs, BatchBlitz and PhotoEdit. These offer you to decide whether to edit your photos with PhotoEdit (the easy one) or BatchBlitz (a little bit difficult than PhotoEdit). I prefer choose the PhotoEdit for editing, since I only need this. But it doesn't mean that the BatchBlitz is useless. If you want to learn about it, please go to the tutorial link.

The recent version of BatchBlitz is BatchBlitz 3.1. To know the newest version, please go to the official site.

OpenOffice Writer: A Slight Review

OpenOffice Writer is a free version of office softwares similar like Microsoft Office. If you usually use Microsoft Office Word, then you'll familiar with OpenOffice write. It has similar interface with slight differences. Only a slight, it doesn't require you to learn it hard. You only need a couple of minutes to learn and adapting yourself with the interface. The rest is same with MS Word.

OpenOffice Writer was created by Java, so it works based on JRE. The current version is 3.2.1. You can install this software suite in any well known OS like Windows and Mac. I tried to download it and the size is about 148 MB.

The most interesting feature in Writer is a PDF publisher. You can publish your document as PDF, something hard to find in other office software. If you planned to make some ezines or e-books, then this is a good choice.

The default file format on OpenOffice Writer is .odt, but you can change it into .doc just like MS Word default file format.  You can also edit your .doc file in Writer and save it in the same format.
