Hopefully it’ll make them easier to read and navigate.

E-Ink is used today by many book readers (such as the popular Amazon Kindle). E-Ink displays are very efficient and ‘easy on the eyes’ - great for such readers.

As you can see we now have several display related blogs on OLEDs, Pico Projectors and E-Ink displays. Stay tuned for even more new blogs coming soon.

The blog’s address - http://www.e-ink-info.com

Those tiny devices can project large images, and be embedded inside phones or cameras or PDAs.

Even though the quality is far from perfect (main issues today are brightness), people are exciting about this tech. Texas Instruments for example thinks that in a few years a “projector phone” will be as common as a “camera phone”…

Interestingly OLEDs might be used as the light source for pico projectors - in the future this might even make them smaller and brighter then current LED technology.

These are mostly translations of our english blogs about OLED, MRAM and ExpressCards.  If you’re an Israeli, or know hebrew, it might be easier to follow these blogs - although not all posts are translated.

Hopefully we’ll get some local, original content in there as well.

It was done by Dollar Logo Design, which I can say I’m very happy with.  The prices are great (starts at 29$, although I recommend the 49$ package which gets you more formats and revisions). They now throw in a free business card design, as well.

You get several design concepts and revisions, it all works pretty well and rather fast too. I got great support from their designer. 

They also have an interesting affiliate program. I get a coupon (3388) - and if you buy and use that coupon, you get 5$ discount, and I get a referral bonus. Nice idea. So be sure to use coupon 3388 if you want to get your logo.

http://www.video-alerts.com

Video-Alerts is a simple yet powerful service for people who want to get notified when new videos are uploaded to YouTube. We think this can be a great tool for bloggers who wishes to find new videos in their niche first, or anyone, really, who is interested in a subject and wants to follow it on YouTube.

They offer shareware publishers a way to give their software for free - and still get paid. Basically the user can choose to complete an ‘offer from an advertiser, and in exchange he gets the software. The offer can be to fill a survey, to enroll to a new credit-card, etc. It’s an interesting scheme, and we have enabled it on our Square-Off game. Normally it sells for 9.99$, but now it is possible to get it for free using TrialPay.

I’d love to hear what you think!

This new version includes a feature that was requested by several users - the ability to ‘expand’ the Channel selector. In case you have many channels, it was difficult to use the small selector (in table and graph reports). Now it’s much easier and quicker.

Download the new version

They are rolling this out to publishers now.

And now, we wait…
