On CNN right now, is Metronaps CEO Arshad Chowdhry who is pitching the idea that it helps a company's productivity when employees take a well-earned nap during the day.

At $800/month, a company can rent a Metronaps pod which allows one to hunker down for a snooze. You even get (not to keep) the Bose QuietComfort2 noise-cancelling headphones. Plug-n-play your iPod and get some zzz's.

For more benefits of a power nap, read this article by Helen Sanders.

For those who visit the site, you are offered a feature to see a preview of the links I provide. This feature is driven by Snap. But lately some of the top bloggers are pulling away from using it on their sites. First Robert Scoble and then Thomas Hawk have decided to say nay to Snap.

What do you say? Should I keep it turned on or should I chuck it? Is it annoying you? Could I do without it?

Speak now or forever hold our tongue (in cheek, of course).

I am not even sure this is a fair comparison, but LifeHacker points to a blog that pits GIMP, a free and open-source image editing software against Adobe's Photoshop.

Someone has cajones, I tell ya.

If you really had to ask, then you obviously haven't ever launched the Adobe Photoshop program on your computer.

Via India Uncut, I learned that another blogger had posted something about desis working at Adobe, but Seetha as he is called has a fan club all his own. For some reason his name, second only to Thomas Knoll [the grand poobah of Photoshop], has garnered all kinds of curious responses. Well, here is Seetha in his own words.

And folks, here is how to pronounce his name: See-tHa-Raa-mun Naa-raa-ya-nun

Space is indeed the final frontier. Disk space that is. Now that you have gone digital and may even have a blog like this one where you post your images you are going to be looking for storage space on either your desktop or an external drive.

TechCrunch reports that C-NET has a new service that can't be beat. It's called All You Can Upload. A tad bit wordy, but it gets the job done especially because the storage is free. You pay zilch. Not bad, eh?

The downside as the TechCrunch report suggests is that if you loose track of your images (AYCUL generates links that you use on your blogs, for instance) you are done for. So, either you save those links off in Notepad or some other text recording program or upload your images again.

Allan Herrell, one of the commenters on the TechCrunch post has dissected the “terms and conditions” of this “free” upload and storage opportunity. His is comment number 19. Please read it before using this service.
