Awesome Online Tools (January 2009 Roundup)

January 28th, 2009 by Alisha Myers

Here’s a new round of online apps we thought you might find interesting.

Mint.com gets a mention this month, simply because it is a really helpful website and application for personal finance.  It can import your online banking information and help you keep track of your spending. Clear Mountain Bank account owners will be disappointed though as it can’t yet sync with that bank’s accounts.  Centra Bank accounts, on the other hand, do work with this website.

IntenseDebate may be one of the most talked about services in the blogging world in 2008.  It allows you to manage comments you make on blogs across websites.  It also lets you reply via email.  If you have a blog, you should check it out.

Twalala

Twalala is a Twitter client that allows you to politely block tweets without “de-friending” your tweeps.  You can choose to “mute” a specific person if they seem too distracting.  You can also block certain posts by entering keywords and phrases.

Clikboard

Clikboard is a web-based tool in which you can post a “noticeboard” for others to access.  You can share with others by having a public link to your Clikboard.  Updating your site is conveniently trouble-free.

Grapevine

Grapevine is an application for communicating with clients, colleagues, and any other group.  It gives one the freedom to enter and depart the on-line collaborating group as needed.

NiceTranslator

is a free on-line translator with a straightforward interface.  Amusez-vous!

Convert PDF to word

Convert PDF document to word is a site that…well, converts PDF files to word documents.

tr.im
Tr.im
is another tool for shortening urls.  If you are using Twitter, you are able to tweet (post to twitter) the url automatically from tr.im.

Thumbizy
Thumbizy
creates a thumbnail of a website.  You just type in the url and choose a size and effect.
