new stuff I'm trying - part two

I posted HERE earlier this week and mentioned some really neat tools I've been given suggestions to try, or just ran across recently in random magazines. I took a little more time last night and looked into a few more I had jotted down or bookmarked online, there really is alot out there!!

1. I'm comparing springpadit.com and cozi.com - they're similar, and I'm wondering if I can't manage better by using just one of them???? springpadit.com has some really handy tools that are drag and drop and super easy to use, there's even a calorie counter on there. Both sites are free, and I'm going to play around with them both to see which one works better for our needs.
2. I've noticed more and more lately I'm getting spam mail... just got a tip on twitter about a resource called bugmenot.com which is a place you can go to enter the web address of the site that is 'forcing' you to join (for free access to their site), for example the major newspaper where I live has this set up. When you register for these online, you start getting junk mail from them. Instead of giving out your own personal info, you can check bugmenot.com to get a quick log in without all of the hassle!
3. One last fun application/site that I read about in a magazine last week - this one was available for my Blackberry, so it sparked my interest. It's also available for iPhone and on regular webaccess. Pageonce.com is a site that allows you to integrate your bills their due dates, cell phone minute tracker, netflix queue, ebay bids, feeds from Facebook and other social networking outlets... I'm working on getting it all set up.

I'm excited about the new gadgets, I'm so yesterday on the techie stuff!! Truth is, my phone and my computer are used WAY more then traditional calenders, or handwritten organizing. So, to say the least, I'm behind in the times! Some of these tools may not benefit my family at all, but they're still pretty cool ideas!
