Is this a challenger to TinyUrl?

bitlyThere are many URL Shortening services on the Internet, and TinyUrl is the best of them. There are some services available of course which offer niche features such as NSFW.in (which is useful for shortening NSFW URLs – the person opening the URL is aware that it will lead to a NSFW site); then again there are totally weird ones like ZombieURL. None of these of course come close to TinyUrl’s popularity. Maybe, there is one now. It’s called Bit.ly.

Play secret agent over the Internet

Well, maybe not spy, but if you want to send out a secret message to someone, and you want it to self-destruct the moment it has been read, then you want to check out PrivNote. This is a neat little site, which lets you type out a note and post it, upon which you receive a Url. You can send this Url to any one person, and as soon as they open this Url, the note ceases to exist. It Self-Destructs – pretty much like how the messages delivered in Mission Impossible self destruct.

Finding free photos on the Internet

There are many photography sites on the Internet which you can go to when you are looking for images that you need to use for your website, brochure, blog, or anywhere else. However, most of the sites are paid or have some kind of copyright assigned to the photographs. WebWorkerDaily covered some of these sites a while ago (and most of these are highly recommended by me as well). However, that is not the topic of this post. I want to talk about a website which offers thousands of good quality, completely free, photos.

Mindjet goes online

I had made a comparison of two very popular online mind-mapping tools some time ago: Mindomo and Mindmeister. Well, now they have competition looming. Popular desktop mind-mapping tool, Mindjet, has now launched an online presence. While it is not a free tool, I was able to try it out for free because they offer a free trial period. Here are my initial thoughts on the product after a quick review.

A good place to go for WordPress Themes

Did you notice that I have a new theme? Probably not, but I was not finding my earlier CopyBlogger theme to my satisfaction. So, I changed it. Now, where did I get a new theme from? Well, there are loads of places available on the net if you do a simple search. However, the one that I keep going back to is called BlogOhBlog. Jai (who runs the site) is brilliant. I have used 2 other themes from him on my other blogs. The best thing is that he keeps producing these free themes which according to me at least are every bit as good as his premium themes.

If you are looking for a WordPress theme, then this place is super highly recommended. He will even do custom themes for you.
