Kodak Digital Frame

Posted by Bloggylife in Gadgets on June 3, 2009

I ordered an 8-inch digital frame from Amazon for about $75 roughly 22 KD, adding the shipping cost it cost me in total less than 30 KD total.

It has two SD memory slots and one USB. It comes with a stand which can be fixed at the back for the frame to stand horizontally or vertically. If you like, the frame can be fixed to the wall.

Since it is 8-inch, so you’ll have issues viewing pictures as a whole, but you can somehow manage how the pictures are displayed to fit within the frame through the settings.

The settings can be access by touching the frame that is just outside the digital screen, the inner one.

If you have categorized your photos into folders, you can select which folders to display and how long before rotating to the second picture.

The picture quality is amazing, but the problem is, if you have taken bad pictures it’ll show ;P Some of my photos  where yellow, though on my tiny camera screen, they look OK, but when blown up on the frame, bad photos can’t be hidden ;D

I got the one with the minimum features, it’s not equipped with WiFi nor can it play video/audio.  I just wanted to display my digital photos, I’m really pleased with it.

Simple, there is a line, that one shouldn’t cross!

I like my supervisor, and when I like someone I hate to see others mess around with them.

My supervisor got into a quarrel with a person from another department and he came to me to vent.

Me: Do you want me to do something about it

Supervisor: -laughing- kafooo wAllah, picking my side

I wasn’t joking, see we the IT are always at the bottom of the chain, everyone is stepping on us, running crying to management, IT blocked this, won’t allow this, endless ridiculous requests! We really work hard but no one actually feels it, people only notice when things go bad and I don’t blame them for that.

I already was contemplating the punishment and blacklisted that person. Inflect excruciating pain, not necessary block his access but reduce it speed ;P assign lower priority to all activities, loop their requests … luckily for that employee, they apologized and made amends with my supervisor. So all is good, the gloves are off.
