All I wanted for Christmas | Apple Magic Mouse

Every Christmas my wife always asked me what I want for gift and my answer is always, “I don’t want anything. I already got everything.”
  >>> Translation: “All I ever wanted for Christmas is you honey!” 

This year, however, is different. I met something very special and I even got to know it fairly well in an Apple Store at the mall: The Magic Mouse.

The best word I could describe about the Apple Magic Mouse is “freedom” -- a great mouse for your busy fingers to do multimedia work.

Fun Photo Box Effects and Gif Animations



Thanks to my wife's nephew in Vietnam, who shared with us the link of this cool free Web tool. It's very quick and simple to use. Just choose a design, upload a photo (sample: my fish photo), and go. No account required. You can post the image or gif animation directly to your social network account or copy the code for your Web or Blog site. It's a quick way to be creative without the hassle of using a photo editor program. You can also use the art work as wall paper for sites such as Twitter or Youtube. Yes, design choices are limited because they are free.
