Gliffy.com - Create and share diagrams online (http://gliffy.com/)
for just a quick testride use one of the logins here (http://www.bugmenot.com/view/gliffy.com) (just saves you the effort of registration).
when i saw this site a few days ago, i thought of something you said or written on your blog. i forgot what it was exactly (something about tools appearing for free) but i thought you might be highly interested in this :)
it's a free online tool that basically duplicates the functionality of one of the best pieces of software microsoft has ever written (MS Visio (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/visio/default.aspx)), you reminded me when you told Mang in the other thread to "click, drag" :)
cause that's what this does, you get a whole bunch of scalable icons, from computers to chairs and arrows and boxes and you can add text etc.
in just a few minutes you can slap together any type of flowchart/map/idea/mindweb etc.
which you can then export as JPEG, PNG and even SVG.
there is also a "collaborate" option somewhere in the menu, which i haven't explored yet, which might be of interest.
i think it is rather awesome.

not nearly as cool as the other thing, but it works great when you need to create a graph (http://www.principiadiscordia.com/forum/index.php?topic=11606.msg360896#msg360896) quickly when all you have is a webbrowser wiff internets
when you made that comment on the blog, you said you knew a bunch of other free services
do you know any off the top of your head?

the graph thing i just found through google because i needed it "create bar graph online" i think was my query.
well there's http://www.meebo.com which is an online MSN/AIM/Yahoo/Googletalk client
there's the generator blog: http://generatorblog.blogspot.com/
ah but now i see on your blog you were talking about web presence.
well for starters, there are a hundred different free image hosters besides imageshack and photobucket (and while looking for some, i found this funny thing http://www.tinyimage.com/ )
there are a hundred free file hosters besides yousendit and megaupload (recently found http://mihd.net/ seems good)
do not forget the google stuff, check these out: http://labs.google.com/
there's an RSS reader, word processor, spreadsheet, database and more
if you know how to code, you can also "remix" some of these applications into new ones (especially google maps and google earth are used a lot for this).
there are websites for throwing dice online
i made one for drawing a random tarot card (http://sulkyknowledge.funpic.de/inspiration.html)
google is both your calculator and unit and money converter (http://www.google.com/search?q=%28++2+%2B++3+%29+cm+in+inches)
and there's more.

Suggest you 'mindweb' This Thread (http://www.principiadiscordia.com/forum/index.php?topic=11605.60) Immediately - something has potential to happen here!

slight pointer on how and what you're aiming for?
then i can decide whether i can still muster the focus and concentration for doing something constructive on this wasted day..

this can / will be a useful tool
get visual on these mofos
I think this is the most useful thing I've seen on the internet since this forum. Great find. I can use this in my professional life as well.
yea i got it from a friend who i was having coffee-lunch with last sunday, he also uses it when he needs to make a quick diagram of whatever for his work. he does some kind of IT consultancy at Sogeti NL.
