I thought I’d start a new segment that features a review or mention of a software application. Here’s the first edition.
Ever needed to combine or split pdfs quickly and easily? Well you can do both rather easily with PDFTK Builder, a nice front end to PDFTK - the pdf toolkit. Both are available under the GPL so they’re free to download. PDFTK Builder lets you combine pdfs, split a pdf into single pages, add a watermark to a pdf, or rotate pages in a pdf.

You can download PDFTK Builder directly by clicking here
or visit their homepage.
If you don’t already have something that lets you create pdfs, check out CutePDF Writer. It’s free and it works with Vista (the open source PDFCreator didn’t work with Vista last time I checked.)
I just started running a new blog called TheYoungMBA, check it out at www.theyoungmba.com It’s about business, careers, internships, and anything mba-related from the perspective of undergrduate students who are also earning their mbas (hence “the young mba”).
Because of this new endeavor, I plan to use this blog as somewhat of a “meta” blog describing the process of setting up and running a blog. I’ll talk about the plugins I use and stuff like that.
I also hope this will inspire us here at ElephantStaircase to revamp our blog some and publish more content regularly about diy projects, entrpreneurship, modding, computers, circuits, and more. If you have any suggestions for content you might be interested in, feel free to let us know.
