What a great idea

My digital addiction is out of control these days with the availability of so many amazing web applications. Here are some of my favorites.

Hittail
Talk about smart. This web analytics tool from Connor Communications is a goldmine of information about how people find your site, i.e. links, keywords, etc. It will give you suggestions about how to imporve your content based on historical keyword search patterns. Highly recommended.

Vyew
This is a slick Flash-based webinar authorizing tool. It allows you to create powerpoint style slideshows and invite participants to your Vyew room. I haven't scratched the surface with all its functionality, but so far I know I can manage images, create text and objects, allow viewers to interact with tools and chat. There's even a free conference call number for a phone gaggle. Very sleek.

Freshbooks
This isn't the only kid on the block when it comes to online invoicing, but I really like the ease of use and custom features it offers. I have had great response from my clients. It's fast, easy to set up, and I get paid much more quickly. There's a free trial, too.

Icebrrg
Again, not the only player on the field, but this is a great tool for gathering online information via forms. You can use it for a survey, a class registration, whatever. It's easy to use and looks good, too.

I could go on longer, but then you might think I flit from web app to web app all day long and never get anything done. Sheesh. I had better stop writing now so that doesn't come true.

See you next time.
