Post for 5/23/06

So I've flip-flopped once again to Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.3. I was enjoying using Maxthon as my browser of choice. However, the ever-growing list of extensions for firefox has wooed me back as usual. One of those extensions, in fact, is how I write this blog entry. A very convenient integrated blogging utility called Performancing.

Anyways, here's a link to a cool piece of software called visual task tips. It allows you to enjoy a future feature of Windows vista, where you can hover your mouse over the open program buttons in your taskbar and get a small thumbnail of what the program looks like. This becomes really useful when you have a lot of windows open at once: Visual Task Tips Web Site

If you are into photography, particuarly digital photography, and would like to learn more about some neat tips and suggestions to bring out your camera's ability, as well as your own. Check out this blog: Digital Photography School

Anybody looking for some great tools for organization that are available online, I've been finding my life to be extremely productive with the following tools:

Gmail: an online e-mail client thats quick, easy, well-organized, and holds 2 Gigs of e-mails.

Google Calendar (GCal): Possibly the best online calendar application I've ever seen. It allows additons of multiple calendars, e-mail, sms, and popup notifications, daily agenda e-mails, etc.

Tada list:
this is a recent application I've found useful in helping me to manage my work projects. Its as simple as it gets for a ToDo list, and its free (just like the above applications).

There are other online applications that I've found either useful or beneficial to me. I'll share more about them later in another posting. What about you? Are there any online (web-based) applications that you rely on for productivity and organization? Feel free to share.
