Digsby All in One Social Networking, Email and Instant Messaging Software
I have to be the first to admint that i don’t have much patience with installing different IM applications just so that I can chat with my friends from ICQ, YIM, MSN or GTalk. And heck, there’s social networks like Myspace, Facebook and LinkedIn ALL crying for my attention. Emails is another problem as well as I personally keep more then 4 public emails accounts and one email for each of the web domains I have. There’s really no way of keeping up to that if I were to login one by one.
That’s why Digsby is so useful for me. It consolidates all these services and keeps you on one software application. It fetches updates from ALL of those services when there’s something new and pop them up on screen for you.
So start saving time and work smarter. Digsby is free and gets updated often.

Windows notepad is fine for opening a single plain text file and for writing a few sentence. It’s definately not the kind of tool that you would want to use for serious purposes.
I’ve been using Notepad++ for quite a while now (more than a year) and it’s been my personal favorite text and source code editor. Note that I didn’t say that it’s an IDE as I’m sure there are better tools such as Visual Studio, Zend Studio, PHPEd, Komodo, Eclipse, Netbeans etc that fit into the bill of an IDE.
