New Book reviews – Google Apps: The Missing Manual and Photoshop CS4 for Photographers

admin — Tue, 04 May 2010 00:05:56 +0000

New book reviews on COISUG:

Google Apps: The Missing Manual

I was primarily interested in Google Docs, and this book had copious information that was more than adequate to get me up and running. There are a lot of subtleties hidden in Google Apps and how you can collaborate with them. Ms. Conner describes quite a few of these in her numerous “tips” inserts. In fact, I found the tips to be some of the most valuable parts of the book. Read more.

Photoshop CS4 Companion for Photographers

The Companion for Photographers is well thought-out. Derrick Story presents a totally Adobe-based workflow that starts with importing images using Photo Downloader in Adobe Bridge, adds metadata, then does quite a bit of editing using Adobe Camera RAW (ACR), and finally uses Photoshop CS4 for final adjustments when needed.
