Some of My Favorite Web Tools
In this (seemingly) limitless internet, I have a set of tools I use every day to make my world much easier. They are neither particularly complex nor life-changing, more simple and intuitivee. Here they are in all their glory.
StumbleUpon Alerter - This little guy (developed by Moojj) has been a faithful companion in my eternal quest to be #1 on SU. It tracks all your discoveries and tells you how many thumbs and reviews they’ve gotten. We’ll get to #1 one day buddy…
Digg Alerter - Even more so than the SU alerter, this is a god send. Also developed by Moojj, this tool keeps me from checking digg every 3 minutes to see how my submissions are doing.
Social Media for Firefox - Far and away the most valuable social media tool our there. The fellas over at 97th Floor developed this genius tool that shows you how many diggs, stumbles, etc. a page or story has. If you don’t see the value in that, don’t bother downloading.
Yahoo Pipes - One of the most powerful feed tools on the web. This one is changing the way people use the web.
del.icio.us - Anything I love, I tag with delicious. Actually I take that back, anything I’m remotely interested in or could see myself interested in one day I tag with delicious.
myOpenID - myOpenID is a great place to manage your online identity. If you’re like me, you have about 70,000 accounts, user names, and passwords sowed all over the web. And you probably have a 7 page word document with all of those accounts. This eliminates you needing to reference that document every 7 seconds.
I haven’t use Yahoo! Pipes but familier with other tools.
As far as SocialMedia FF plugin concern I use good compact tool at
