View My TV

Viewmy.tv

This global television portal allows you to tune in to certain channels from around the world and watch TV through your web browser.
You can access the content by genre, or look up programmes from a particular region and country.
The service is completely free as it uses an ad-based business model, so you do not even need to create an account to start watching.
You can also embed each channel in your website and blog, or watch it on your mobile phone.

Sugarsync

Sugarsync.com is a cloud storage service which syncs your documents to any web-connected computer or smartphone.
You can share files with invited collaborators - the software is certainly much easier to set up than a home network.


Sugarsync has the benefit of an incremental changes feature which means any tweaks made will not require the whole file to be uploaded again.

Thickbuttons.com

This free app changes the size of the keyboard buttons on a touchscreen handset depending on what you are typing.
Thickbuttons.com is an Android app, and the nearest found for the iPhone is Shapewriter.com
It lets you write in broad sweeps across the virtual keyboard instead of little taps - predictive programming assesses the word you are trying to write by the movement of your finger.

iType2go

Fun app iType2go enables iPhone users to see what's ahead through the camera while typing on the virtual keyboard.But I certainly would not recommend composing an e-mail as you walk along the high street.

TASTE KID

TASTE KID (www.tastekid.com) helps users discover new clothes, films or music they might enjoy.
Look up a CD in this site, which looks like a search engine, and it offers recommendations based on similar purchases by other people.
There is even a free iPhone app so you can browse suggestions while you are on the move.

COULOUR Lovers

 THEMELEON (www.colourlovers.com/themeleon)
Image-conscious net users can change the background designs on their Twitter accounts to suit the latest vogue.
You can try out different looks or upload a photo and this app will set it correctly for your background.

Drag the bookmark for this site onto your toolbar in Firefox or Internet Explorer and when you post a tweet it automatically shortens the text.
It seems to work OK with Chrome too, but it is not officially supported.
It does not take a genius to reduce a post to 140 characters with common abbreviations, but I do like that it auto-shortens URLs.
