I like to do this once in a while.

My favorite sites & tech things:

“These are a few of my favorite techie things…”

* Cobain Backup because you can do LIVE BACKUPS as an option (i.e. you don’t need software to use the backed up files, it’s just like drag-n-drop) and it’s FREE.
* ePrompter (It checks multiple gmail accounts at once and webmail accounts. The more I use it the more I love it. Free!)
* vimeo.com, like flickr, but for video.
* My new pet project, a website for locals. (email me if you’d like the link. I set up drupal, a chat room, a message board, and am writing articles as well as just general blog posts.)
* Moblogging: My Moblog
* My teeny tiny laptop that I got for working on my writing in cafes and places other than home.
* My Sony Clie UX50. It has wifi but also I can surf anywhere by connecting to my cell phone via bluetooth. Then I can surf, chat, email, you name it.
* Podcasts! Especially TWiT, Leo’s KFI tech show, Security Now, Diggnation.
