Favourite piece of quirky software?

I've got a new laptop, I like my quirky programs, websites and tools that i beleive no-one knows about but have a usp...(Although I can't think of a good example).

So I'm thinking other people must have sites that aid them through everyday online life. Help me out here.

Name some lesser known things that are interesting or good for a general online geek please...

 

A little application I love is Wizmo (http://grc.com/wizmo/wizmo.htm), it lets me turn off both of my monitors with one button.
It Also allows me to mute my computer and turn off both monitors via one remote button press, which I use for turning off the TV playing on my computer before bed

I use macro scheduler (www.mjtnet.com) almost everyday as well to automate all those boring computer tasks.

Finally, without plugging my own site too much... The one site I use the most is www.sitejot.com, to store all my bookmarks online. (The site was programmed with the main goal of pleasing me )

 

QuickSpoof

 

I only have a couple I use...both from years ago and yes I still use em.

one is a little tool for grabbing color codes..its called tray color (grabs the color code off anything you click it on) and the other is my old faithful and so much better imho than windows volume control, its called andrea audio commander and no longer free

reminds me..I need to do some backups...

 

There's a firefox extension for that too.

 

VIM for text editing. Light and cool

 

One of the guys who lives with me is a software developer and he has written me a few aps that are really helpful. I might share one latter that is helpful for webmasters, just using it myself at this stage though.

 

CyberScrub - keeps things nice & clean

Sokkit - PHP/MySQL Manager (for localhost WinXp Home) - too lazy to configure

 

What is this and what does it do?

 

Interesting, do share!

 

I use a simple text editor called Noted. Makes it real easy to code HTML, CSS, JavaScript, etc...and easily find/replace things.

 

I use SuperFastShutdown. Also comes with a restart option... both force my PC to do things much quicker.

I've also used XP Smoker a few times... helpful little program to change some things that XP makes more difficult to change than they should be.

 

Notepad is the most useful tool I know of. But yea... I also still use dos...

 

Nice site JoeO. I hate sending bookmarks back to my home PC from work. This is a fantastic service. Thanks!
