Back in the day many years ago I used Evernote for my note-taking needs. But I outgrew the free version; OneNote was already installed and cost nothing more than I’d already paid (in the pre-subscription days) for Office, so I started using that. I appreciated the ability to have multiple notebooks, nested folders and rich content.…

I struggled to find an acceptable way of displaying photos in my Kodak 11.6" FHD Digital Photo Frame until I found XnConvert. This post details how to get the results I wanted. Aug 102025
Yeah, I know, it’s a long time between drinks hey! I’ve uploaded Version 5 of my screen designs for OziExplorer for Android. The major change is the addition of a toggle button for Night Vision (red screen). This has been available in the PC version of OziExplorer forever, and in the default screen designs that are installed with Ozi for Android, but hasn’t been available for third parties like me to build into our own screen designs until just now (thanks Des!).…

I’ve been looking for the user manual for my trusty old McCulloch 2214AV chainsaw for a while to get some specs. I need to get a spare chain – the current one is missing a couple of cutters & getting pretty worn – and I want to give it the once-over. Couldn’t find the original manual so I went searching on the internet.…

I’ve added 3 new downloads for screen designs for OziExplorer for Android. Although Android will automatically resize everything to fit your screen anyway, these ones are better suited to devices with the the lower 800×480 resolution screens. You can download all 3: the only difference between them is in the buttons on the 4 map pages.…

My screen design for OziExplorer for Android has been updated to version 4. The original design was configured for 1200×800 resolution screens which was a bit weird; version 2 uploaded 7 June 2020 was designed for 1280×800 screens (eg Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0). It incorporated a few changes introduced with OziExplorer for Android v. 1.34, including the handling of GPX Waypoint & Track files and the removal of SMS functionality, as well as a few cosmetic changes.…

Sadly, the genealogy pages on davoweb.net have been languishing without updates for several years, not least because the media links were in a mess and some add-ons I was using were broken after updates to WordPress or PHP, the computer language that drives this (and many other) websites. Over the last couple of months I bit the bullet and updated TNG, the excellent software package that davoweb.net…

Yep, it’s a been long time between drinks :-(… I’ve wanted for a long time to have a GPS file containing the locations of all the official campsites & trackheads on the Hume & Hovell Walking Track. I finally got hold of one of those pesky round tuits and now it’s here!…
