My friend David had done a very nice post on GMX e-mail client.

We both signed up and tried and we both like it. It’s clean and neat.

 Loaded with lots of nice features, this isn’t just another e-mail client.

Visit David ’s blog for a more detailed description and some screen-shot.

Microsoft is trying to catch up with GoogleDocs and Zoho…and some other online office and document sharing providers, and so they’ve opened up to the public their Microsoft Office Live Workspaces, which is still in beta.

You can store more than 1000 documents, access then from anywhere, and share them with your colleagues or friends.

Creating workspaces is a nice feature and i kind of enjoy it.

At the moment there are 11 pre-made workspaces: budget, essay, jobs, meeting, and so on - but you can also start from scratch with a blank.

See some more workspace examples here.

You’re also offered the “Extended Microsoft Office Experience”:

-Open and save files directly from Word, Excel, and PowerPoint

-Synchronize contact, task, and event lists with Outlook

Now, if you’re into online office and documents sharing….and, if you’re also using Micorosft Office products, then you’ll skip over all the negative reviews this pack gets at the moment and give it a try, since both are working together.

Who knows…..You might like it.

Is not perfect yet and there are a bunch of improvements that can be done, but hey…it’s a beta!

The beauty of Open Learn is that all the courses are free, ranging from arts to technology and open to all people around the world. Nice one, David!

Tweaks - Here’s a quick tweak from TheVistaDaily: Block Irritating Live Hotmail Mail Ads !

Comment: I tried it myself and the adds are gone. Gotta love tweaks like that…

Goodies - Web based word processor BuzzWord is now open to the public and let me tell you this: it’s so cute!

Ok, that was very girly, but i can’t help it.

Freeware- Don’t know what to pick as a anti-virus or anti-spam software? Go to Mashable and see the Antivirus Toolbox: 90+ Tools.

Freeware - If you’re looking for an alternative to iTunes, then DownloadSquad might have just made your search easier - iTunes Alternatives - for Windows, Linux and Mac.

Web 2.0 - If you’ve decided to move all your stuff online and take the best out of 2.0 but you’re still looking for the perfect services, then you might want to have a look at SimpleSpark.com.

With over 6605 web services listed and still tracking, Simple Spark is one of the most interesting place to start your hunt….and you’ve got plenty to look at.

Well, that’s it for today. I will be back with more goodies, as soon as i will find them.
