Do you use more than one computer, maybe even different types such as a Mac, Linux or Windows? One thing that really bugs me is not having access to the same Bookmarks on each of these machines. I do use the social bookmarking web site called del.icio.us but I still prefer to have links I can access from within my web browser. 

Del.icio.us

If you use Firefox Web Browser then Foxmarks is just the ticket. It creates an online account that keeps a copy of your Bookmarks which can then be synchronised between machines. Once setup and configured with your account details Foxmarks works in the background, its also free!

Microsoft has recently release a new version of Office called Office 2007 surprisingly enough. Office XP and Office 2003 where fairly compatible with one another, meaning you could create a Word or Excel document in 2003 and email it to your colleague who has Office XP.

Office 2007 is less for giving as regards backwards compatibility with Office XP and 2003. You can tell Office 2007 to save in a Office 97-2003 compatible format but what if someone emails you a 2007 document? Well you need to download Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack which will allow you to edit, view and save Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents using Office XP or 2003 Edition.
