PocketMod: The Free Disposable Personal Organizer

"PocketMod is a new way to keep yourself organized. Lets face it, PDAs are too expensive and cumbersome, and organizers are bulky and hard to carry around. Nothing beats a folded up piece of paper."

..what a cool idea :-) .. and a nice implementation with Flash .. try it out!..

"macTV is a daily 'videocast' showing all things apple + mac related. all videos are encoded in stunning h.264 quality."

.. includes interesting old footage ..

How do you get creative with your phonecam?

"Your mobile phone camera can be more than a fast way to send your kitty photos to Grandma Pearl. Like a lot of people, I use mine as a ubiquitous capture device, recording ephemeral information and visual documentation wherever and whenever it’s needed."

..I like the "Remember where you parked" tip..

Zimbra

Zimbra - Downloads: "Zimbra Collaboration Suite 2005 Beta open source software is now available. Download our AJAX web client and server and migrate your existing accounts."

..looks like some interesting stuff .. not the functionality itself, but the architecture .. the whole thing including server seems to be Open Source :-) .. and there are some interesting looking whitepapers ..

WiredReach

"The WiredReach Platform allows users to selectively share content with others in a completely decentralized and secure manner. That means your content does not have to be uploaded to any central servers but rather can be shared right from your desktop or device. We use the term 'content' very loosely to include things like presence, blogs, bookmarks, documents, calendars, music, photos... virtually any type of social media."

.. an interesting use-case for Eclipse RCP ..

NetBeans catching up in Rich Clients
