Zamzar

There are times when I still marvel at what you can find online. Last week someone sent me a file that I couldn't open because my software couldn't handle the file's format. I needed to convert it to something I could use.

With virtually no hope of success I sought help from the all powerful Oz - Google. And what should I stumble across? Just the perfect solution to my problem.

I had never heard of Zamzarbefore, but their free online service did exactly what I wanted. There are one or two other web sites that do similar things, but Zamzar was the best as far as I was concerned.
