A new search engine

Cuil.com (pronounced “cool”).  And here’s a good reason to use it (or StartPage) instead of Google:  http://newstrust.net/stories/2685319/toolbar?ref=hp

Private surfing

by Don

I’ve mentioned startpage before, but I found out that if you go to https://startpage.com/ (note the s after http, which means it’s a secure connection, like they use for credit card transactions) it hides your searches even from your internet service provider (ISP). And of course if you install the proxy toolbar, with every search you can click on Proxy with every search to have it bring up the page so that even the page you’re looking at can’t log your IP address.

Free online storage

This could come in VERY handy! I very reluctantly plug anything Microsoft does, but this is a great service. It’s called SkyDrive. Free 25 gigabytes worth of storage. The only thing required is that you create an account. You don’t even have to create a Hotmail or MSN account. I used my gmail account.  It’s not the same or as good as online backup, but, hey, 25 gig!  And if this is all you have as a backup, you’ll thank me if/when your hard drive crashes.  The only question is, do you trust Microsoft with your personal documents?

Here’s the link: http://windowslive.com/online/skydrive

Video download sites

A couple of useful sites here for downloading videos for later viewing.  I know I often want to watch a video later, not right then and there.  Anyway, here are a couple of links:

http://www.videosnag.com/

There are probably a hundred others.  :)

In a similar vein, here are a couple of online graphics editing sites:
