Almost late night here in the Northeast but I just came across a cool company doing “cool, simple and useful things”. If you spend as much time online as I do you will find these tools very useful if not interesting…

The below are all created by a compnay called 37 Signals…

[btw, if you like their slogan “Goodbye to bloat. Simple, focused software that does just what you need and nothing you don’t.” You will love their software.]
