Wedding Photographer.. Anyone?

Just bought meself a spanking new.. well.. spanking almost new digital SLR. I know.. I know.. I can already see eyes rolling. But heck, I love taking photographs, and I am pretty decent at it, so this digital camera is going to be an investment. I mean, I love music, have loads of CDs and such.. but I cannot say that an iPod I so greatly lust for, is an investment. Maybe I have not found an angle yet, but that is another story.

How do I pay for this camera then?

Wedding photography. So.. all you readers out there (yes all 10 of you!). I offer my services as a back-up wedding photographer. Don't want to commit myself to much... yet. My services are affordable, so please keep me in mind.

The hype about skype

Here is my unabashed plug for an internet telephony service called Skype. Here is a really cool way to stay connected. Skpe offers the user telephony over the internet across platfoms. In the past, mac user for instance could talk to one another using Apple's proprietory iChat software. Cool and as revolutionary as it is, only Mac users can use it.

Skpe, allows you to talk to one another regardless of operating system. Mac users, Windows 2000 or XP or Linux users can simply download the app (in beta form at the moment), and start chatting. Actually even Pocket PC users can use sype turning almost all Windows based palm devices as handphones! One can even make calls using the computer to normal land based or mobile phone lines. You just have to buy some skype credit (in units of 10 or 25 euro), and the service becomes available to you. The best thing about this is, the cost of the calls you make is actually cheaper than even a local call. Eg: it costs only 0.022 euros per minute to call from anywhere in the world to a Malaysian land line.

One need not be on broadband. Skype apparently works with a 33.6 internet connection.

So go to www.skype.com and get online today..

If you want to add meto your contact list, my skype id is dyap38.

See ya all
