Knowing you can improve yourself — or the world around you — and actually doing it are very different things. As much as you might want to learn new skills or upgrade your technology, actually figuring out how to do it can be the most difficult part.
So, isn’t it great that you can get a running start toward hacking your productivity and improving your technology with these really great (and really time-sensitive) deals on software and e-learning?
WnSoft’s PTE AV Studio is powerful but easy-to-use slideshow software that is widely used by photographers, camera clubs and AV groups for competitions and festivals. Shows created in PTE AV Studio have won prizes in events held in the U.K., France, Belgium, Italy and other countries.
Now, WnSoft calls its latest version of PTE AV Studio Pro “the most powerful photo slideshow software for Mac.” And judging by the robust feature set it includes, that may be no exaggeration.
Maybe it’s the impending iOS, iPadOS and macOS updates, but in checking out the App Store this past week, everything seemed to be “bug fixes and stability improvements.” Those are great things to have, but they aren’t as cool or exciting as fresh features or hot new apps!

If you’ve started and stopped trying to learn a new language multiple times, then you know how hard it can be. Learning a language isn’t just about mastering new words.

And all that’s really hard to learn without individualized instruction and a lot of chances to practice.
Babbel is the No. 1 way to pick up a new language — 14 new languages, actually. During the Babbel is Back promotion, you can get a lifetime of Babbel Language Learning for just $199.
