There have been a lot of really good posts on blogs lately evaluating all the different applications out there for various purposes. I thought it’d be a good idea to highlight all the ones I’ve run across in a post for those who may have missed some:
Let’s Buy Some Music: Part 1 – Frank Gruber for TechCrunch analyzes and discusses all the available music download services such as iTunes, Rhapsody, Napster, and more.
A Complete Guide to Web Analytics – I discuss and give brief reviews on a majority of the web analytic applications available today. I’m looking to update that post shortly with more applications mentioned in comments and emails.
The State of Online Feed Readers – Frank Gruber talks about nine different feed readers to help get you through your RSS feeds. Personally, I still like the simplicity of Bloglines.
Ten Video Sharing Services Compared – DVGuru reviews the main video sharing sites, many of whom are brand-spanking new. I’ve yet to try most of them and this roundup will help me choose who to try out. Reviews include, Vimeo, YouTube, Eyespot, Jumpcut, Grouper, OurMedia, vSocial, VideoEgg, Revver, and Google Video.
The Flickr Gunners – Michael Arrington reviews some of the up and coming photo applications looking to take the buzz away from Flickr. Reviews are of BubbleShare, Ookles, and Zooomr.
Pandora vs. Last.fm – Steve Krause dives into the two primary music recommendation engines in Pandora and Last.fm. I personally prefer Last.fm due to the tracking of my iTunes listening, but I’ve had a few Pandora recommendations that have paid off as well.
