You probably know I have a ton of classes over at Lynda.com on photography, video, and business.

Over at my photo blog (Photofocus) we have a unique offer. Get TEN free days of Lynda.com with a membership trial. That deal is available know where else. Here's a direct link.

The fine print:

Your membership will include access to all 1,601 lynda.com courses. Choose a premium membership for downloadable exercise files that let you work along with the instructors.

Need a Drobo? I've Got a Deal for You (Valid 11/26 Only)

in , ,

We use a lot of Drobo products in my office… and I use them at home too. They make some great storage units for keeping data safe.
We've kept in touch with Drobo providing feedback on features and performance (fortunately they're a good listener).

I also got them to offer up two great deals (valid on Saturday, November 26 only).
We edit most of the video in our offices off Drobo Pros or the Drobo B800i units. Our graphics department also uses the Drobo FS units to share files. I store my photo library on two Drobo S units at home.
