The Best Free Web Apps for 2008

1. Zamzar – Your cell phone
records video in 3gp format but Windows Media Player cannot play these
files. Your client has sent a document in Office 2007 format but you
don’t have the software to read it. What you therefore need is Zamzar,
an online service that can convert images, videos, audio and documents
from one format to another without downloading any software.


2. Spypig – This is an email
tracking service that will send you a notification as soon as someone
opens your email. SpyPig works with web based email (like Gmail,
Yahoo!) as well as desktop email clients like Outlook and Thunderbird.

3. Photoshop.com – This is
like a light version of Adobe Photoshop that’s both free and requires
no installation. You also get 2GB of storage space for saving those
editing photographs online plus there’s a mobile version of
Photoshop.com available for Windows Mobile.


4. Sumo Paint - While image
editing apps like Photoshop Express or Picnik offer almost everything
to edit your photographs online, a limitation with these tools is that
you cannot use them to create new images from scratch. That’s where
Sumo Paint enters the frame.

5. Skydrive – This is an
online storage service from Microsoft where you can store files, photos
and documents forever for free. You get 25 GB of storage space and the
size limit per file is 50 MB.


6. Wakoopa – You have seen social networks
for senior citizens, for women, for pets, for toddlers and so on but
Wakoopa is different - it’s a social network for software. The service
tracks software and web apps that you frequently use and then
recommends other software programs that are popular in your social
circle.

7. Screen Toaster - You
can record all your on-screen activity with Screen Toaster without
downloading any software. When you hit the Stop button, the recorded
video clip with auto-upload to the web and the quality is pretty good.
See some more online screencasting apps.

8. Posterous – Posterous may
look like another Tumblr style micro-blogging platform but it’s
actually the best cross-publishing platform on the web. You can use the
service to write blog posts, publish photos, uploaded video or even
send tweets - all through a simple email message.

9. Truveo – Not exactly a web
app but this search engine from AOL lets you find and play videos from
all over the web including YouTube, MySpace, Metacafe, Blip.tv and
other video sharing sites. Truveo also indexes video clips from news
and entertainment websites.


10. Joongel - If you can’t
find the information you’re looking for on Google, use Joongel as it
will help you search other web properties from one convenient
interface. Joongel works with blogs, images, social websites and more.
11. Iterasi – Web pages change
frequently and some of your favorite websites may not even exist after
few months. Iterasi will help you save an exact copy of web pages in a
click so even if the original website goes down, you’ll still have all
the stuff to read.

12. RescueTime - This will
help you understand how you spend your time on the computer and the
Internet. There’s no need for you to enter any data manually as all time tracking is done behind-the-scenes automatically.
13. Ping.fm - This service lets you
interact with blogging sites and social networks through SMS, IM
clients, desktop apps or the good old-email. Just send a message to
ping.fm and your current status will be updated simultaneously across
all the different social networks.

14. Meebo – If you have friends
using multiple IM clients, you’ll find Meebo pretty useful. This is a
web based IM client that lets you connect with friends on Google Talk,
Facebook, Yahoo! Messenger and other popular IM clients from a central
location without downloading anything.


15. Animoto – Slideshows are
boring so Animoto turns your pictures into very interesting videos (or
should I say movie trailers). The final video is produced in widescreen
format and the quality is extremely impressive.


16. InstaCalc - This is an
interesting mix of an calculator and a spreadsheet application much
better than your default Windows calculator. Instacalc also supports
unit conversion and you can embed the calculations in web pages while
maintaining the interactivity.

17. Live Mesh – Mesh is a
must-have service for people who work across multiple computers. Just
add some folders to Mesh from one computer and access that content from
anywhere else. Other than cloud storage, Mesh also offers remote
desktop capabilities with copy-paste support. Also see comparison of Mesh with Live Sync.
