Mmmmm, Pie

If Alex liked chocolate (and it wasn't $20)(not that he's not worth $20)(a lot more in fact)(but still...) I would buy this for him for Xmas.

Swipe: From the guys who brought you predictive text (T9)

They reckon this means even old codgers can get up to 50 words a minute!

It is scary when you see it in action...

Introducing Ubiquity

Blimey this could be awesome

Mozilla Labs / Blog Archive / Introducing Ubiquity

Lots of the things have been done before admittedly, but we're back to the "one place" argument which Google gets right so often...

Ajax Loader

What Ajax Loader actually has to do with Ajax is slightly beyond me. But it is a neat way of making loading logos.

Posterous

Fancy email blogging tool. Just write what you want, attach pics (they resize) and MP3s (they make a player) or any other media and fire it off. On email. You can link as many accounts as you like to the blog. They format it and do the rest. And you get 1GB (!) of personal space to start with. Interesting. Presumably the paid-for version will allow for templates etc, but it's quite spiffy for beginners:

Drop.io

This is great. Really simple shared storage, as private as you want/need it to be:

Drop.io: Simple Private Exchange

Also view files by type: (thumbnails photos, streams music) or in a 'blog' format and a widget allows other users to upload directly from your website (without them needing to know the actual location)

Cool beans.

Pixenate

Yet another online photo editor; but I do like the 'bookmarklet' which grabs all the images on any webpage, so you can choose which one to edit:

Not tried this yet, looks impressive though (and currently free...)

FixMyMovie

"FixMyMovie users MotionDSP’s patent-pending multi-frame enhancement technology which studies your video and finds the unique information present in each frame of video. It scans the neighboring video frames to match the scene (background) and objects (foreground), combining more than 5 frames of information to make a cleaner, higher-resolution video."

Instapaper

Instapaper

How it works

1. You find something you want to read, but you don't have time now. You click your [Read Later] bookmarklet.

2. When you have time to read, you come here on your computer or phone and get whatever you wanted to read.
