Two Tools You Can Use to Get Results
Few things are more valuable than tools that increase your effectiveness, and few things are more difficult than sorting through the myriad options available. Let me share a couple of tools that I strongly recommend to help you narrow your search: For improving your effectiveness in communicating your ideas to others… THINKATURE.com – Ever wished that you had a white board available when you were trying to explain something to someone on the phone? How about a way to share ideas over the internet in a virtual workspace where you can chat without even picking up the phone? Enter Thinkature.com — an online white board system that allows you to create workspaces, invite people to join them, and even chat with one another over the web while working in the space. Check it out at www.Thinkature.com For discovering new websites that fit your interests... STUMBLEUPON.com – A few months ago I literally stumbled upon a site which promised to help me find websites that fit my interests. Intrigued, I signed up, defined my preferences, added the icon to my Firefox toolbar, and began stumbling. As the name implies, this tool allows you to stumble around the web and visit sites based on the preferences you have defined. For example, if you are interested in travel, you select travel as your category of interest and then start stumbling around the web…you will be amazed at what you find. The process is much like channel surfing…you go to a site and if it catches your interest you look around, and perhaps bookmark it for later reference, but if it doesn’t, you just click the icon and go to another site that is within the interests you have defined. There is even a tool that allows you to stumble videos posted on various sites on the web. Try it yourself and see what you think: www.StumbleUpon.com
