Reviews

  • Netvibes

    If you want to fill a personal home page with dozens of individualised newsfeeds and tools, Netvibes does a cleaner job than rival services from bigger brand names.

  • Yahoo Messenger with Voice 8

    While Windows Live Messenger offers better file sharing and video chatting, Yahoo Messenger with Voice 8 stands out for its Net telephone service, photo sharing, novelty plug-ins, and embedded search.

  • FileMaker Pro 8.5

    Filemaker 8.5 lets you drop Web pages into database layouts, so you can map contacts' addresses, track FedEx packages, display encyclopedia entries, or whatever else you imagine without leaving the application.

  • Google Desktop 4 beta

    Google Desktop 4 beta is less clunky than its predecessor and we love the zippy search and creative Sidebar Gadgets. Still, we're wary of handing over our computing habits to Google's servers.

  • Skype 2 (beta)

    Though Skype 2 suffers from middling voice quality when calling landline phones, it's still one of the best free VoIP services around, and its new Skype Video feature makes it even better.

  • Opera 8

    If you don't mind paying for Web browser features found nowhere else, Opera 8's the browser for you.

  • Pluck

    Pluck's ease of use, flexibility and tight browser integration make it one of our favourite RSS readers.
