Fun Friday Resources

Today we’ve got useful tools.

If you’ve ever had to deal with a PDF that needed reshaping, reformatting, anything like that, then iLovePDF.com is for you. It has every imaginable tool to change documents into PDFs and mess with them.

If you need to edit videos , go to Kapwing. It’s surprisingly robust, but not over-complicated. I used it recently to edit a small video of the Assistive Felines™ because it allowed adding text to the proceedings that could be positioned anywhere on the screen, unlike some programs residing on my laptop. (Looking at you, iMovie.)

Do you need a whiteboard for your Zoom meeting? Try Witeboard: it’s got all the tools, plus it’s shareable, collaborative, and Slack-embeddable. You can use it on your laptop, your tablet, or your phone.

Finally, for your supersecret spy chats, there is Tox, which takes a little bit to set up but promises completely private conversations for you and your contacts within the embassy. Or whatever it is you’re up to, and no I don’t want to know about it.
