  How to create a live preview on a website?

  Yeah, you could do this with Flash or Flex, but you could also do it with web standards using XHTML/CSS/Javascript (Ajax). Basically, you’d have form elements (or fancier controls) for the user to select colors, fonts, and enter text, and the Javascript would take those values and produce a preview, most likely updating any time a change is made in one of those controls.

  What are the limitations of buying the Educational versions of software?

  You can’t tell the difference in the finished product. The software is the same, it’s only the license that’s different. One very important difference, though, is that you typically cannot upgrade educational software. When CS4 comes out, you’ll have to buy it for the full price (or go for the educational discount again).

  Make a web page for collecting and displaying names?

  The site you’re describing isn’t complicated, but if you want it to be in Swedish, have no ads, etc., you’ll probably have to build it yourself. You could most likely adapt Wordpress or some other off-the-shelf CMS system, but that would still require plenty of customization, as these aren’t designed just to collect input from visitors and display it. They provide a flexible platform for you to build on, but you still have to do that building. The most important question is: What skills do you have in this area? Have you made websites before? Created databases?

  My macbook somehow erased all of my address book. What do I do?

  I can’t even imagine how that could happen accidentally. Everything else on your machine is normal? Do you use MobileMe (previously .Mac)?
