I’ve been using DVD Decrypter for months and months now and I haven’t created a coaster yet. Many people are familiar, perhaps, with DVD Decrypter’s role in RipIt4Me, or as a stand alone ripper, but little known is the program’s ability to burn an image file (.iso). That’s it. Rip your DVDs and compress them however you want (try DVD Shrink — and sometimes DVD43 allows DVD Shrink to overcome a shortcoming) and rip / compress your DVD to an .iso file, then burn with DVD Decrypter. Oh yeah, and they’re all free (as in beer) programs.

Internetting from the right-side of the brain: DVD Decrypter
Internetting from the right-side of the brain: Library Books and picasa2flickr
I add a few new programs and add-ons to the computer(s) in my world every day or week; I’m trying to keep track of them.
“Library Books” is really nice for its simplicity and integration into the menu bar of OSx. I use Picasa for simple edits to photos in XP Pro and this plug-in will send your photos directly to Flickr from Picasa.
