Websites that you must visit!

There are tens of millions of sites to visit. Not forgetting Obscure Ideas, here are the only ones you actually need.

TECHNOLOGY

1 Google
www.google.com The powerhouse of the internet and the only place many people go for information. But if you thought Google was a still a mere search engine, look again.

GoogleDocs lets you create documents, spreadsheets and presentations, store them online, share them with others and access them from wherever there's an internet connection.

Googlemail is probably the best email program - it has virtually limitless capacity and you don't need to change your email address to use it.
2 Anonymouse
www.anonymouse.org
Surf the web without disclosing who or where you are.
3 iLounge
www.ilounge.com Hints, tips and troubleshooting for your iPod and associated software.
4 Only2Clicks
www.only2clicks.com If you use just a few websites, this lets you create a home page that has links to them all. Simple, free and practical.
5 Zoho
www.zoho.com A suite of free business programs. From word processing and presentation software to tools for taking notes in meetings, planning projects and creating databases.
6 Backpack
www.backpackit.com To-do lists, notes, ideas and calendar. Excellent for juggling projects and much more versatile than a ring folder.
7 GetNetWise
www.getnetwise.org All you need to know about keeping the net safe - protecting children, preventing spam, avoiding viruses and stopping others accessing your personal details.
8 DaFont
www.dafont.com More than 7,500 free fonts (for Mac and PC), so you can at last stop using Copperplate for your party invitations.
9 Pando
www.pando.com The superfast way to send large files over the web. Don't attach that family video to an email, Pando it instead.
