Life, Home & Office Sites That Move & Motivate
By Jeff Zbar | December 8, 2008
I have an iGoogle page and a Facebook. I read the New York Times and WebWorkerDaily, FreelanceSwitch and FreelanceFolder.
I use Google Alerts, and I broadcast my band’s shows and gigs on uStream.tv.
We’re surrounded by various tools and sites that improve everything from organization to my productivity to the fun and spirit we enjoy while sitting in our homes and home offices. Many are fee-based. But many more are moving to the free model, trading a great service for the chance to build a list and sell advertising.
What do you use to boost your life, livelihood and liveliness?
Do you…
Enjoy Websites that help you learn and discover, as with the “ideas worth spreading” site Ted.org?
Surf over to Lifehacker.com to see the latest high-tech and low-tech tools that make life easier?
Call friends for cheap or free with VoIP services like Skype or Vonage?
Use iGoogle or AOL or other applications that let you create your own home-page so you can see all the news that’s important to you in one location everytime you log on?
Turn on Hulu.com to stream your favorite TV shows direct to your Internet-enabled device, anywhere in the world?
Do you ask friends what they use to make their lives more productive, organized and enjoyable?
To be sure, the Web can be a time thief. But used well, its services and applications can deliver a streamlined life, a more organized workflow, and more fun to what we do.
