01. DINKY PAGE at http://www.dinkypage.com/#about is a free service with
which you can create disposable pages on the Web. It does not provide image
hosting, but if that's a consideration you can always link to some other
site that does.
02. HEY! PASTE IT. Until now, the easiest way to copy and paste text from
one computer to another was to transport it via a USB or other external
media. Now the simplest solution, provided of course that both computers
have access to the Internet, is to paste the text at
http://www.heypasteit.com/ , then go to the provided link on the second
computer and copy it. There's no download or installation, and it's one of
those ideas I wish I'd thought of.
03. PINDAX at http://www.pindax.com/ provides a message board on which you
can post text, images, files, polls, and tasks in real time. Get
notification when there are replies, create groups and profiles, and control
access to your board. You can search posts, send posts via email, and chat
with other members.
04. ASKBOTH. By now you probably have used Bing, the latest search engine
competitor to Google. Whether you like it as well, or better, than Google,
you can use both at http://askboth.com and your search query will be neatly
displayed for both search engines on the same page.

05. HELLO MOVIES at http://www.hellomovies.com/#fulfillment=online_free
shows all movies available free for viewing on Hulu, YouTube, Crackle,
Fancast, Jaman, and Veoh. I tried a few of these and the quality was very
good, although you'll have to accept short but not too frequent commercials.
Somebody has to pay the bills, after all.
06. TEXTDIFF does a fast comparison between files and folders and
highlights differences within individual lines. It also provides two-way
merging, text editing, search and replace text, multiple undo/redo of text
changes, a report of file differences, and more. Download free at
http://www.angusj.com/delphi/textdiff.html .
07. IP HIDER masks the real Internet Protocol (IP) of a user, allowing one
to browse all kind of pages without ever worrying that the ISPs or any other
marketing tool is monitoring surfing habits or spammers are attacking the
computer. The simplest way to do this is to have traffic redirected through
anonymous proxies. Download free at http://www.allanonymity.com/ .
08. VIRTUAL KEYBOARD. Choose piano, organ, saxophone, flute, pan pipes,
strings, guitar, steel drums, or double bass with accompanying drum beats at
http://www.bgfl.org/bgfl/custom/resources_ftp/client_ftp/ks2/music/piano/pan_pipes.htm .
09. KEYSCRAMBLER. As you type, KeyScrambler encrypts your keystrokes and
this protects sensitive data (passwords, credit card numbers, etc.) from
keyloggers. The personal version of this browser add-on is at
http://www.qfxsoftware.com/ .
10. NNT BLOG has taken off by leaps and bounds. We try a different subject
nearly every day, related to computers and the Internet. And you're
encouraged to talk back and give your opinions, pro and con. It's all at
http://www.neatnettricks.com/blog and you don't have to register to
participate. Give a look-see!
