Digital Photography School is a website with simple tips to help digital camera owners get the most out of their cameras. This site is dedicated purely with ‘how to’ tips for digital photography.

If you are an advanced digital camera user you might find some of what is written on this site a little basic, but it’s the new to semi experienced digital camera owner (like me) this site is really really useful and informative.

This ‘School’ is not a formal one by any means. There are no classes, no teachers, no exams – rather it’s a learning environment where they write articles and we read, and in the forum where sharing what we’re learning by showing our photos and ask and answer each other questions.

Additional information is this site is by Darren Rowse and who is the guy behind Digital Photography Blog, a site dedicated to digital camera news and reviews. I think this second site will also be very useful to you, when you are up to buying a digital camera.

I hope you enjoy Digital Photography School and Digital Photography Blog.

Gmail had just launched IMAP access to Gmail. Its just another cool feature and worked on may OS platforms and email clients like Thunderbird to Outlook to Apple Mail and even on iPhone. Sync your inbox across devices instantly and automatically. Whether you read or write your email on your phone or on your desktop, changes you make to Gmail will be seen from anywhere you access your inbox.

How do I enable IMAP?

You can retrieve your Gmail messages with a client or device that supports IMAP. To enable IMAP in your Gmail account:

1. Log in to your Gmail account.
2. Click Settings at the top of any Gmail page.
3. Click Forwarding and POP/IMAP.
4. Select Enable IMAP.
5. Configure your IMAP client and click Save Changes.

I think this is a really nice feature and I’m going to try it myself and if there are any concerns or errors in my post, just let me know, as I’m writing this in a little rush, before going into a presentation at office.

To get more infomation about this, go to ‘Getting Started with IMAP for Gmail’.
