tumblr (Laura) - Blogging for lazy people: A combination between google notebook and a blogging service. Find something interesting online? A bit of text, a picture? Two clicks, and it's on your blog.

google notebook (Irina) - No, Google is not giving away free laptop computers. Google Notebook is a nice tool to conveniently gather information on a project as you browse.

sribd (Ingmar) - A pretty daring idea: Create a youtube-like site for open text documents. Upload your documents - comment on others' documents. Keep an eye on this fast-growing website.
