Nice things over web!

Update 05/05/2023 -

Removed all links since all of these services are no longer operational. Also, Google Unpublished this blog citing malware :) . On internet. all things will die

Documenting some very cool things over web that i am using. Now, since i am one of the slowest guy to move to a new technology (i love inertia), these apps are awesome in the sense that they made me sit up and take notice.

(1) imeem: A must recommend. I started using it about 2 years back and for some reason stuck with it (because they were streaming music for free). But this company has attracted a lot of attention over the last quarter. RWW has covered it twice in last month. Why imeem is so good? They are the onle ones out there who are attempting to legalize streaming music over web. They have contracts with companies, they have advertisements in between, song previews chosen randomly and hundreds of things. Plus they have a very good base of music lovers. [My imeem profile]

(2) Phulki: An aggregator for hindi music. Thanks to gurshi for pointing it out to me. A neat interface for frontend and a fundoo idea to aggregate different streaming sources at backend. My fav hindi music listening site. Loved it after the first time. Only thing i hate is that i dont have replay option which is a must have for me. Nevertheless, i love it!

(3) Google reader: Since i now fit into the world of blogger and blog readers, google reader is inevitable. Feedly is the next step to take, i am exploring it but still the inertia is there.

(4)Humrahi : Not a app that i use regularly but a great idea. Again thanks to gurshi for this one. It is a site where you can ask for help if your parents/children are traveling from us to india or reverse. Humrahi means companion and thats the purpose.

(5) Buxfer: Now acquired by google. This one is way better than bill monk. Buxfer is an app to manage expenditure at personal level and at a group level. Ideal to be used when living with roommates.

Slowly, slowly i am also moving towards facebook. Some friends are sharing some cool articles/links over it and thats the only reason for me to log in to fb.

And i am keeping my fingers crossed for this website to work : Green mango. A good initiative to promote small scale service industry in India. Based in Hyderabad, they have already got good number of people interested!
