Yahoo! Pipes

Yahoo! Pipes is extremely powerful. I heard about it a while back, but never really payed any attention until recently.

Google Chrome

I’m a bit behind on this post, but if you haven’t tried it yet, I would suggest taking a look at Google’s new browser, Chrome. It is still in beta, but then again, beta is what Google says it is.

Pros: The program loads a lot faster than Firefox, but that is probably because I have so many plugins in Firefox, and none in Chrome. Pages load a bit quicker, as well.

Cons: It is still very young, so there currently no official plugins or themes. Themes are less important, but I simply can not give up Firebug or Webdeveloper in Firefox when I’m developing. Finally, I have had problems with it crashing due to flash content, but other people I have talked to are not experiencing this.
