Tumblr
i just love the simplicity of this site. It seems like an enhanced Twitter, although i haven’t tested it out thoroughly yet. I’ll post back later with updates.
Basically it allows your to make quick posts which then form a simple blog. Neat idea.

Dolphin Community Site
I’ve just stumbled on Dolphin community software by Boonex. It seems like a pretty complete package for building web2 community websites, including videos, profiles, music and all the regular Web2 essentials. I’ll be looking into this in more depth at some point in the future. If anyone has any experience of this software, leave a comment.

DOPPLR
Dopplr is all good! A clean and tidy travel-itinery-social-networking type site which keeps track of your journeys, and those of all your friends (who are signed up - of course) so you can watch everyone jetsetting around the globe. Or staying at home, whatever the case may be. Wordpress also has plugin available.

Pando
Pando.com is a new file sharing tool with the Web2 feel. It needs to be downloaded and installed, be careful however, as they also offer you to install Ask.com toolbar, a shopping program etc. However their intentions aren’t evil. Still, this could well be removed if they really wish this software to be used professionally. As soon as my clients stop sending files with it, I will uninstall it. There are web drop-boxes available which offer the same service without the need to clog up my hard drive.
It also has extended functionality and proposes web publishing and media streaming.
