Today we are beta testing the Xanga Uploader

With the addition of the many new photo features on Xanga, we decided it was time to make it easier for users to sync their collection of photos to their Xanga site. Enter Xanga Uploader, an installable desktop application that allows you to drag and drop photos, edit attributes such as title and tags, and with the click of a button, upload those photos to your Xanga Photo Manager. You’ll find Xanga Uploader works great for those situations when you want to drop photos from your latest vacation or party into Xanga.

Xanga Uploader is currently beta software. To make sure our software is top quality, we need your help in testing, and quality feedback. Feel free to post any bugs, problems, or just general ideas to http://help.xanga.com/contact/pictures.htm.

The Xanga Uploader requires Windows 2000 or Windows XP. If you would like Xanga Uploader for an operating system we currently don’t support, don’t be shy. Make sure you give us feedback so we can best serve you.

For the past couple of months, a program called UPnP Port Works has been in development by a programmer who goes by the name `JeNsEn. He contacted me interested in the LibNAT library I wrote. He has put that code to good use, developing the UPnP Port Works program. Basically, this program is a command line utility that can be used to manage all your ports on any UPnP enabled router. It is very cool, and helpful to those managing networks behind these brand of routers. `JeNsEn has done an amazing job extending LibNAT, and testing it on a large number of routers, so I send my thanks to him in this post. Here is a link to his site:
