Anol's Top 10 Tools as at 3 August 2008

1. Firefox - Do we remember how was the life before FireFox? FF is not only the browser that simply works, the Plugins and Add-ons developed by the community help me to make it my own. Love it!

2. Google Family - It’s not a single tool, I use and love and can’t live without Gmail, Google Talk, Google Reader, Google Docs, Google Calendar, Google Sites ...  My company also moved into Google Apps, making my life much easier.

3. WordPress - The sweetest blog engine, again Open Source and community development (plugin, theme) rules! All of my blogs are using Wordpress. [Thanks James for introducing me to WordPress, 3 years back]

4. del.icio.us - Simple, easy to use, effective. Period!

5. flickr - Most intuitive online album application till date.

6. Basecamp - The online project management application by 37 Signals. Without that me and my team will be forced to live a hellish chaotic life! It’s simple and provides a great user experience.

7. As Google Sites replaced PB Wiki, I will fill up the place with Evernote, the best note taking s/w (replacing Google Notes for me). Best part of Evernote is it's Web, PC and Mac based client.

8. MindManager - Most feature rich, link-all-tools mind managing s/w, I use it as my dashboard.

9. PowerPoint - Because still there is no viable alternatives.

10. Remember the Milk : the most user friendly task manager around with Google Calendar, Twitter and IM support.
