A novel idea which can cure many people of the suffering of keeping tabs on websites that go down for any reason. Be it an overburdened site or a site which is down for maintenance, notifymee can help you by emailing you as soon as the web resource comes back up.
The usage is simple. Put in the URL to monitor and your email and the service will email you as soon as the target becomes alive again. No more waiting for refresh after every minute to check the availability.
A nice application for the Twitter phenomenon. It is simple, free and does only one thing. It allows people to easy follow up to 200 twitters based on keywords.
The usage of the application is extremely easy. You sign in to your twitter account via twittgeek and allow it to access your account. Then you are redirected back to search for fellow twitters using keywords. Its fun but the sad part is that the selection is random. I had to run the application 5 times before I managed to get a special person in the list.
Have you ever went to a website only to find out that it managed to automatically download and install a trojan on your computer? I am sure many of us have experienced the pain. Of course you do not need to scan everything across the globe (read: our site is safe), but sites hosted on free web servers like geocities should be. So whats an easy an safe way to do this? Use online scanning facilities provided by Online Link Scan.
This free service allows you to quickly scan suspicious URLs for malware content. It consults all the major search engines for any reports that indicate a site is bad for you computer’s health besides scanning it for known threats. A great resouce.
