Today's top 10 list:
My favorite free internet applications/websites 1 Yahoo! Fantasy Sports Yahoo! Fantasy Sports has a great set-up considering it's free. It's easy to set up a league, get updated information, and have a live draft. 2 My Yahoo! I've mentioned this more than once on this blog, with good reason. It's the only place I can find my personal e-mail, calendar, stocks, favorite websites, and TV listings all on the same webpage. 3 Amazon Great deals on all sorts of products, customized recommendations, and the ability to post your wish list. [Edit] It would be nice if their customer support phone number was easier to find... 4 Craigslist Even though I've only used this website once in my life, that one time was critical--it's how we found our apartment! 5 Mozilla Firefox Firefox 1.5 came out a couple weeks ago. Its best features are still the speed, the built-in pop-up blocker, and tabbed browsing. 6 Yahoo! Music I only use this because you can create your own radio station. Based on your ratings of songs, artists, albums, and genres, you get personalized streaming music. If only I could take my personalized radio station with me during my commute. (I know most people just use an Ipod, but I don't want to go through the hassle of searching for and downloading songs.) 7 Yahoo! Calendar I suppose some people rely on Palm Pilots or paper planners. But if you ever need an online calendar, you'll have to use Yahoo! Calendar, because there's no notable competition. 8 Blogger This top 10 list and the links in the left column are all brought to you by Blogger. Literally. 9 Yahoo! Maps BETA It should be fun watching Yahoo! and Google try to out-do one another's maps. I'll go with Yahoo! for now, but this could change at any moment. 10 Wikipedia Find encyclopedia entries for anything from ear candling to Yahoo! Music. Keep in mind that I don't use IM, download stuff, and I'm not really a bargain hunter. Otherwise, am I missing anything? 6 Comments:
