The Top Five Web Services of 2008
There have beeen quite a few killer web apps which created waves on internet, here’s my list of the top five web services of 2008.
* Dial2Do When beloved voice-messaging service Jott started charging for
all but its most basic functions, I cried. Then I found Dial2Do, a nearly identical replacement that’s getting better all the time.
* Dropcard Why bother printing (and collecting) business cards when you
can use Dropcard? This ingenious service lets you exchange contact information with others using only your cell phone.
* Drop.io If there’s an easier way to share files online, I haven’t found it. A
few clicks is all it takes to create a “drop,” a custom file-hosting URL you can share with others.
* Foxmarks This bookmark-syncing extension for Firefox has been a favorite for many years, but in 2008 it rolled out a killer feature: password
synchronization. Talk about making a good thing even better. (How about extension syncing for 2009, guys?)
* Windows Live Sync Formerly FolderShare, Windows Live Sync remain
s an all-time favorite for making quick and easy work of synchronizing files and folders between multiple PCs. Couldn’t live without it.
