userstyles

Have we had this already? Or did I miss the memo?

userstyles.org

"userstyles.org is a collection of styles that puts you in control of the appearance of websites and of Mozilla applications. These styles can remove annoying parts of websites, change the colour scheme, streamline your browser, and much more."

You just install the Stylish add-on for Firefox/Flock/Thunderbird, then away you go.
I am currently, at home, looking at my regular Google Reader as if it were Mac OSX!

Convert between any (almost) file formats - zamzar

ZamZar

You can either point it at a url or upload the file, choose the file format you want and it will convert it and e-mail it to you. It even works out that if you point it at the page of a movie on youtube you want the movie converted not the page.

Scribd

Scribd is a really easy way to share documents. You can literally, without logging in or setting up an account, point it at a folder and it will suck up all of your documents and turn them into web readable format so that everyone can read all of your private stuff.
