Diigo - a hidden gem

If you use del.icio.us for online bookmarking and like google's notepad for online research, then suggest that you take a look at Diigo's offering. It's all those rolled in one and then some.

I've been using it for quite some time now (after trying out del.icio.us and google notepad) and I'm not budging! Recently I was doing a bunch of research online and diigo excelled!

1. Online bookmarking - will also simultaneously post to your del.icio.account


2. Firefox toolbar


3. tagging


4. Web clipping


5. Web annotation

Now to "hidden" - I've been on Diigo more than 8 months or so now - and yet I'm still to meet someone who knew about Diigo!!
Diigo rocks!

Imaging the tenth dimension

Amazing flash movie!

Great flash movie explaining dimensions 4 (time), 5, 6 all the way uptil 10. And why they stop after 10!

I've never come across a clearer explanation ever and the great visualization does the trick.

Instant messenger client utopia

GAIM...

I hate running 3 different chat clients (yahoo, msn, gtalk) on my machine - and that's just 3x memory, startup programs and useless adversting too many.

And I hate msn and yahoo's advertising that's built into their clients...esp on MSN which insists on opening a mini page on login...

Use GAIM - and do yourself a favour. Of course that's if you don't need the very specialized features :)).

Installation is a breeze and use plugins you like and avoid the bloat....The best plugins I like are guifications and text replace. Lastly, if you keep moving between machines as much as I do, then its a breeze to retain your settings between all your machines.
