1. Google today launched Google Presentation, a rival to Microsoft’s PowerPoint. If you’re a fan of the other Google Docs web apps, you’ll feel right at home with Presentation. Collaboration, online presentation sharing, and 15 built-in themes are just a few of the many features available in Presentation.
2. Mozilla is showing off a mockup of the new Places feature for Firefox 3.0. As you can see, the mockup has quite the Vista look going on.
3. Photoshop Express, a web-based version of Photoshop, is in development. John Nack of Adobe was kind enough to post a screenshot of the app in action. Unfortunately, Photoshop Express will have nowhere near the amount of functionality in the full version of Photoshop.

The upgrade to Firefox 2.0 from 1.5 added many great new features, but some features were also removed, one of these being the option to easily disallow any cookies that do not come from originating sites. Thankfully this option can still be altered in the Firefox config editor despite the option being removed from the main options dialog by the following procedure:

Open a new tab in Firefox, type about:config in the address bar and press enter. This should load the Firefox config editor.

Using the filter field at the top, search for network.cookie.cookieBehavior.

Right-click on this option and select Modify. Change the value to 1 to disallow all third-party cookies. Set the value to 2 to disable all cookies. To accept all cookies, change it to 0.

For more control over your cookies:
I highly suggest using the CookieSafe extension for Firefox if you’d like even more control over your browser cookies.

Enjoy using Photo Booth to take pictures using your iSight? You may have noticed how Photo Booth can get a bit cluttered with pictures you’ve taken over time. Here’s a couple tips on how to export and remove pictures from Photo Booth.

A tip before you start:
To select many pictures at once in the Finder, type Command + A to select all pictures. Now hold down the Command key and click on any pictures you want to deselect.

Export pictures

Start by selecting a picture in Photo Booth and typing Command + R. This will open the folder containing the pictures in the Finder. Select the pictures you want to export and drag and drop them into an album in iPhoto (assuming you’re using iPhoto to manage your photos).

Delete pictures

Begin with the same procedure as with exporting by clicking on a picture and typing Command + R. Select any pictures you don’t want and type Command + Delete. Refer to the above tip for how to easily select many pictures at once.

Update (09/19/2007):
Someone has created an AppleScript to automatically import Photo Booth pictures into iPhoto.
