It can do &#8220;Graduation Curve, Histogram, Layers and more like pros do&#8221; (yeah, I don&#8217;t know what all that means either). It describes itself as &#8220;The best way to upload and optimize photos to Flickr. Better colors, better sharpness, better contrast.&#8221; I didn&#8217;t actually give it a try, but the demo images on the front page do look impressive. It&#8217;s not clear what their revenue model is, but their logo has it labelled as &#8220;early&#8221;, so maybe the revenue-generation will come later.</div>

Talkr is an interesting service that provides an audio version of text-only blogs.  The free audio feeds sound pretty decent and almost natural. It would be awesome if a future version would let you listen to blogs in different voices such as the robot voice or angry man voice.
