Review: PassPack (v Clipperz) - passwords on the iPhone!
UPDATE: Marco (from Clipperz) just posted that they’re already hard at work on an iPhone version, hampered only by their lack of an iPhone. :) I’m excited, choice is good, competition makes everyone better.
So, one of the things I miss on my iPhone is a secure password management application. It doesn’t have one and Clipperz.com [...]
Who’s using Bloglines?
So, randomly, I decided to check out Bloglines. Randomly, because I don’t really use an online RSS reader - I use Firefox’s live rss feeds for my desktop and I have a reader app on my Treo that downloads my feeds periodically. I actually discovered Bloglines off that strange Blog Juice calculator that seems to [...]
Review: Versionate (v. Google Docs)
Read, yesterday, about the launch of Versionate, the latest from Y-combinator. From the publicity Versionate is sort of a combination of wiki, Google Docs and file storage. Unusually, this is a full launch, not beta, with free and various tiers of paid service. It seems like there’s now lots of web2.0 services taking on a [...]
Faux Interview: Mark Percival of 2Prong
It isn’t really an interview but we exchanged a few emails and I thought it was an interesting situation. Avid readers of this blog remember my big temporary email shootout post awhile ago where I named MintEmail king. it turns out that behind the scenes MintEmail is using the Open Source software that Mark Percival [...]

PAYjr, introduce your kids to the corporate world early!
Wow, I’m completely surprised that someone both made this and others think it’s a good idea. PAYjr (via techcrunch) is an online chore tracking and payment system that completely intermediates any contact between parent and child in the household chore process. All interaction should occur via the website, parents can schedule chores and payments and [...]
Review: Clipperz
UPDATE: So, I just got word in the comments that I misunderstood things. In fact the javascript encryption libraries are licensed under the open source approved BSD license. I had read that the javascript that runs their website was under a reference license and made the mistake of believing that all their licenses were the [...]
Geekfindr: XHTML & CSS
I’ve just started messing around a little bit in the htmlPlayground. It’s a pretty interesting site - it let’s you interactively play around with xhtml and css attributes while showing you the output of your efforts.
The site is pretty cool, with several panes that list all the tags, css attributes, a little contextual description [...]
Review: Mailinator v. MintEmail v. Guerrilla Mail v. Dodgeit
So after that post on Guerrilla Mail I received via various means tips to a few other services that hit the same sweet spot, namely easy read-only/temporary mailboxes that let you sign up safely and privately for sites that do email verification. The contestants as my cryptic title line put it are: Mailinator, MintEmail, Guerrilla [...]
Review: Enquisite
A commenter here directed my attention towards Enquisite a web based reporting service who’s hook is their focus on search referrals. With an obsessive granularity and focus on reporting on search engines and search phrases they provide you with a wealth of information that I haven’t seen in other reporting tools. My short review is [...]
Geekfindr: DNSstuff/IPtools
It is on reasonable occasion that I find it necessary to figure out what’s going on with a domain or IP Address - typically this involves dig (ok, I’ll admit it, I still use nslookup…), traceroute, whois or ping. Usually when that becomes necessary, it’s also interesting or necessary to be able to perform those [...]
