In MyGrowUp.com project, we need to get photo’s original date when user uploads photos. I found a very useful open source library: Sanselan
” This Pure-Java library reads & writes a variety of image formats, including fast parsing of image metadata (size, color space, icc profile, etc.).
This library is pure Java. It’s slow, consequently, but perfectly portable. It’s easier to use than ImageIO/JAI/Toolkit (Sun/Java’s image support), supports more formats (and supports them more correctly). It also provides easy access to metadata.
Although not yet version 1.0, sanselan is working and is used by a number of projects in production. “

Very useful online dictionary
I just released new version of online mini dictionary. The most convenient online reading tool. No downloads. Easy to use – just double click the word – then get the definition with audio pronunciations.
It is all done by web resources, without database.
