    TextPad is another great free timesaver. I have it open almost all the time when doing anything with HTML, javascript or XML.

    • For a web developer, Firefox with the FireBug (joehewitt.com/software/firebug/) and Web Developer (chrispederick.com/work/webdeveloper/) Extensions are indispensable.
    • Notepad++ is a great, lightweight text editor with tabbed interface and syntax highlighting (notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/site.htm)
    • Topstyle is brilliant as a CSS editor. There's a free, light version (newsgator.com/NGOLProduct.aspx?ProdId=TopStyle&ProdView=lite), but I shelled out for the full version, it's just that good.
    • The GIMP. If you can't afford photoshop, this is the next best thing (gimp.org/)
    • Cool Ruler. Simple, yet I use it all the time (fabsoft.com/products/ruler/ruler.html)

    cheers
