DROPBOX (www.dropbox.com)
 |
Rather than email documents back and forth or rely on thumb drives, you can now drop them into a virtual box.
Once you download this application, you can access a storage folder which is available automatically on computers running the software - it includes PC, Mac and Linux machines.
You get 2GB worth of space with a free account, and you can upgrade to a paid-for version if you need more storage.
There is also an app you can download for your iPhone, but sadly Android users are not catered for yet.
BUMP (http://bu.mp)
 |
This app for iPhone or Android handsets literally allows users to swap details, such as a phone numbers, simply by bumping mobile phones together.
Once installed, just define in your handset what data you want to share with a simple bump.
GOOGLE BUZZ (buzz.google.com)
 |
Buzz is Google's latest crusade into the world of social media - it is integrated with Gmail and allows users to share updates, photos, videos and more.
It works in a similar way to tools such as Friendfeed, where threads are bubbled to the top when someone adds a comment.
I like the way you can filter out posts without having to un-follow a friend, something which is lacking in Twitter and Facebook.
Buzz works on handsets but posts from a mobile phone are geo-tagged with precise locations unless if you disable this default feature.
TWITTER (twitter.com/Astro_Soichi)
 |
Astronaut Astro Soichi on board the international space station orbiting the Earth has posted some incredible photographs on Twitter this week.
Join him to see how the world is looking from his unique perspective.

Hey there, I'm Spencer. I work for a company named Syncables, and after reading through this, I think you might want to check us out. We make a localized syncing software that I've found makes a great compliment to dropbox. Our client is cross-platform, and it lets you keep your files, contacts and email synced between your computers over your home or office network, which is great for when you can't get an internet connection but still need to transfer things between your machines. Additionally, Syncables includes a media component, which allows you to upload your media to any phone or usb drive.
Anyway, come check us out sometime at www.syncables.com!
