1. Immense http://www.immen.se/ is a network that provides online video publishers with the capability to use contextual ads in videos.
Nah, I don’t create video!
2. Toufee http://www.toufee.com/ is a web based editor that allows you to create and publish flash movies and presentations online.
Nah, I don’t that much.
3. Veeker http://veeker.com/veeker/ is a service that lets you and your friends communicate instantly using the video cameras in your mobile phones.
Nah, No friends!
4. mTextbox http://www.mtextbox.com/ is a service that enables you to upload text files that you can read on your mobile phone.
Nah, why would I want to do that?
5. Tabblo http://www.tabblo.com/ is a service that lets you upload your photos and create albums that you can share with other people.
Nah, Another one?
6. MediaFile http://www.mediafire.com/ is a service that lets you upload unlimited size files also simultaneously.
Nah, Another one?
7. Huddle http://www.gohuddle.com/ is a hosted service that offers virtual workspaces called ‘huddles’, which can be used to manage projects, share and review documents, monitor timelines and discuss work across the members of the group.
Maybe, if cheap enough, it might be good for any ad hoc group to exploit.
8. Freenigma http://www.freenigma.com/ is a service that adds privacy technology (with strong e-mail encryption) to your webmail service.
Winner, This can be used by everyone in today’s era of snoopy gubamint.
9. Wridea http://www.wridea.com/ is project management tool that allows you to create a page for each project and different categories for each work type.
Maybe, ditto above, it might be good for an ad hoc group to exploit.
10. LocalHostr http://beta.localhostr.com/ is a service that allows you to upload and store any type of file up to 20MB.
Maybe, duplicates other big file store and share site, need to know what the limits are. There have to be limits don’t there? Or, does it do something fancy?
