Jot notes simply and easily

Wridea is a service I got to know about two months ago and in fact, I still use it today sometimes. Every now and again I find myself in a situation where I need a lot of little bits of info to store for a small amount of time. Wridea is a perfect companion for [...]

Grab any color from your Firefox session

As an amateur html and CSS enthusiast I see colors and schemes that I really like sometimes and when I’m trying to find the best colors to suit my sites I want to try these out. It’s usually very fiddly to find out these colors without special tools, but I have found a great Firefox [...]

Sort files in Vista easily with The Magic Folder

While surfing the net I tend to download a lot of stuff. Not because I enjoy cluttering my hard drive with thing’s I’ll never look at again, but for example to make a blog post I need a picture from here, a link from there, all this mounts up to a lot of stuff. When [...]

Manage projects online with ProjectOffice

I’m always looking for good project management solutions, and so far I haven’t found one that fits my needs perfectly.

Selectively deleting entries from you Firefox history

Selectively deleting your history entries seems like something you do in adolescence and while I hope I may help my young friends in this area, my reason for wanting to do this is to un-clutter my history.

Easily create and maintain a website with Doodlekit

I have to say that I really hate website builders, I even hate WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get) HTML editors. These tools are inflexible, create laughably complex website codes and are just a pain to work with. That said, I think I found one web service that could turn the tide a [...]

Send SMS to your Girlfriend/Spouse for free with Google Calendar

I have to admit, I’m not the cheapskate, I don’t try dodging costs and I don’t employ the technique described here, but it is a fairly easy way to get rid of SMS expenses once and for all. There are numerous ways to minimize mobile costs nowadays, I have a “family pack”, which means that [...]
