A script to convert screenshots to JPG format MacOSXHints posts a tip about converting a screen shot (taken in PDF format) into a JPG. [Mac OS X Hints]

Taking Notes Lion Kimbro likes to take notes and develop new systems for taking notes.
Notes (and notes research) is very interesting to me - during college I always took notes with pen and notebook. I once or twice saw people trying to take notes with a PDA and keyboard, but I'm sure they fought the interface more than anything else.
