Video to GIf

Still, finding the right GIF can be hard, and making your own is even harder, so the website is now introducing its own GIF creator. Simply called Video to GIF, the tool lets you use many popular video sites as sources for your animations; simply copy the URL into the input field to get going. It’s a pretty rudimentary tool so far – you can only trim videos and add some text – but nevertheless appreciated. It’s worth noting,…

With interest in selfies seemingly intensifying — especially given the selfie stick fad — Athentech has found a way to boost its profile in the portrait arena with a new upgrade to its Perfectly Clear photo correction app for Android.

Sky has today announced that it will begin offering mobile voice and data services to customers for the first time following an agreement with Telefónica UK. The partnership means that the service will run via wholesale access to Telefónica’s mobile infrastructure and services across the country.
