MyMemorizer.com is quickly becoming my favorite online calendar app. With intuitive features and smooth, clean graphics, it is pleasant to use. Every calendar should follow MyMemorizer's plan view that shows today and tomorrow's schedules, a task list, and overall view of the next 2 weeks. Other views include standard year and month view s. It has group features, sharing, and allows calendar widgets to be posted into sites. Multiple reminders can be set up for each event, such as reminding you a day before and 15 minutes before. The greatest feature is that event reminders that can be sent to you via email or SMS to your cell phone. That can save the day.
GanttPV is an open source alternative to Microsoft Project. I haven't tested it, so I would love to hear what you think.
Zoho.com offers a full suite of web apps for the collaborative office environment. It's ingenious easy to use interface and instant sharing with co-workers blows Microsoft's Office out of the water. This is a true "Live Office". A few of the apps are not free if you go over a certain level of use, but that doesn't appear to affect the "small" user. They are even offering a MS Office Plug-in that lets you easily transfer between the two applications. Zoho.com includes Notebook, Writer, Sheet, Show, Wiki, Virtual Office, Projects, Customer Relations, Creator (Database), Planner, Chat, Polls, Website Monitoring, even Online Testing. Hmm...Free, Better...Goodbye Office! Compare to Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Access, Project, Outlook, and Microsoft Office, free windows software
Bubbl.us is a web app that helps you organize your thoughts and ideas. It is similar to the old pen & paper method of drawing a bubble around an idea and branching off from there with other bubbles. It has an easy and smooth interface. A visual hierarchy if you will, great for visually stimulated people. Get a better description at Solutionwatch. [via DumbLittleMan]
Stikkit.com is an amazingly intelligent web app that picks out names, dates, and other info from your notes and organizes the information appropriately. Works great for bookmarking, tagging, and sharing ideas. It is almost like you have a secretary to go over your notes and file them appropriately, but it really is more than that. You have to try it to understand it. I personally believe the ideas behind this product will revolutionize personal organizers and phones in the future.

Picasa is an excellent photo organizer. Not only does it keep all your photos organized, you can easily perform the most common photo edits and print. If you use Gmail, it is integrated for easy publishing and emailing pictures to friends. I use this instead of the software that came with my camera. This is a must have for anyone who uses a digital camera.
{Picasa is part of the Google Pack that you'll find below the posts.}
