Your Lucky Day

I used to post a lot more posts like this one that had random sites, but I haven’t in a while. So I thought I would post a good random, funny, stupid, fun, important, whatever random sites posts. This one happens to be mostly free things for you. I’m sure you needed something to waste time on at work today…so here you go!

Private phone - Get a free phone number and voicemail. I don’t know why you would need this in real life, except to hide something from someone….but whatever.

Waker Upper - Send yourself a wake up call. You can even leave yourself a message.

MegaConverter - Wonderful math and science tool for converting almost ANYTHING — angles, area, force, length, mass –etc. Has link for teaching tips, and megacalculator.

WhatTheFont - helps you find a particular font based on a sample you upload. This could be VERY useful!!

GooSync - Keep your cell/pda/etc device calendar and your Google Calendar in sync.

Stikkit - Imagine post-it notes that understand what you’re saying.

30boxes - The say “Imaging Google Calendar, but with 10 times the awesome” But I haven’t tried it.

Of course there are all things Google (Calendar, Docs, Spreadsheets, E-Mail, etc.)

GIMP — GNU Image Manipulation Program - And since you most likely don’t know what GNU Manipulation means, think Photoshop…only free.

Skype - one of my personal favorites. Think IM on crack. IM, Phone calls (free to Skype, cheap ones to landlines) all around the world, Video Calls (free), etc. I love Skype! I even have it on my mobile phone.

Wordpress -only the best blogging software in the world; and free to boot!

And you can check out 101 Freebies (from Wisebread)

And for FUN

Phone Fingers - With the Phone Fingers you won’t have to clean your touch screen all the time and it’s an eye catcher too.

Your salary in realtime. How it works? You enter your payment amount whichever way you like: hourly, weekly, monthly or annually. Then the program calculates the money you make per day, per hour, per minute and per second. I earn cents per minute!!

Office Collar - has been designed in response to the open plan working environment. The collars act spatial isolators, narrowing the field of vision, therefore enabling their wearer to focus on the tasks in front of them.

And just incase you haven’t gotten one - Get ready to embark on a remarkable journey, Become a Better You!

And twoof my personal favorites from the past - Gotta Go Briefcase and the Toilet Snorkel (half a page down). Both would be excellent Christmas gifts!

Now get back to work slacker.

    I love the GIMP! I use it for all of my photoshoppy needs. Just yesterday I finished making swanky tags for Bean’s diaper bag…. and all with the GIMP and free digital scrapbooking papers I found online. I dig free stuff.
