Fantastic File Converter

Via www.smashingapps.com, please welcome CometDocs - Free Online File Converter. It’s a god-send because it accomplishes three major goals:

1. It’s a fantastic file conversion utility that has over 50 conversion options. Popular options such as converting from PDF to MS-Word, PDF to Excel, and html to PDF are just some examples.


2. It’s free and it’s online. So no software to download and install on your computer and no fees to pay.


3. It works. I know because I tried it. It was easy to use and converted each of my files within one minute.

CometDocs is definitely worthy of being bookmarked on your Del.icio.us account. (If you are new to Del.icio.us then view this video).

File too big for email?

When sending email, we've all received this message at one point or another:

Error - Recipient Email Inbox is Full. This email was not delivered.

Yup. Pain in the butt. Periodically I send large media files to people and if my file is larger than 2 Mb, I often wonder if it will ever reach them or not. I was listening to an episode of EdTechTalk recently and they spoke about a service that can help me with this problem: YouSendIt. Without any account creation, it allows anyone to store a file of less than a 100 Mb on their server for a 7 day period of time and it can be downloaded by the intended recipient onto their computer. I tried it and it works. I uploaded an 8 Mb file and specified the email address of my recipient. It then sent my recipient an email with simple instructions on how to download the file. This is a great service that bypasses the email inbox and is especially useful for large files! If you're a power user you can create an account and it will accept files as large as 2 Gigabyte! That's almost two and a half CDs worth of files. WOW! Let me know if you find this free service useful.
