The GOOD stuff – free online resources.


Just like to share a couple of things that made life much easier- which is exactly what internet’s here for, yea? They’re free, too. Holy crap.

1. Dropbox. No more waiting for mega upload or email attachments.

Recommended by Max (Mapiz). Works for Window, Linux, and Mac.
It’s the most efficient file sharing program. All you have to do is download it onto your OS.

Once you download dropbox, it creates a public folder, so you can simply drag and drop the file you’d like to share. Then, it provides you with an URL that allow the other parties to download the file.

You can make an exclusive sharing folder with your whoever, too. I used this feature to share fashion show mix just last week.

2. Download helper. Download your favorite videos.

Recommended to me by Kevin (Monkeyphobia). It’s an addon for Firefox. (but it might be for other browsers? goodluck.) It allows you to download any video (along with a bunch of other features that I haven’t used yet.) via any link(YouTube, Facebook..etc).

I guess this meant for those that can’t always remember the link/ key words for the search of a particular video. User friendly, embedded into the toolbar.

3. Threadsy. Social network organizer. pretty much.

This is what I do EVERYTIME when I click a browser – open 5 tabs, then using each to check Facebook, emails, twitter, flickr..and what not. Ok, I made that last part up. I don’t really have a flickr account.

The solution is here. One place that has it all. Even if you have multiple email accounts. You can even reply messages, emails through it, too.

Although I like how convenient this is, I do think the layout’s a bit crowded.

4. Synonym.com. Self explanatory.

Made perfectly for a fob like me.

5. TinyURL. Great after the twitter craze.

You are probably already familiar with this, but did you know you can stuff it into your toolbar and make the link of the page you’re on into a tiny one just a click away?! Well, I didn’t.

6. Zen Unicorn(http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3178652/LinchpinGiftZenUnicorn.pdf via dropbox). Just a good read.

Seth Godin’s my hero.

If you like any of them, share it. Don’t be selfish.
