One of our favorite Australians, Lachlan Hardy, twittered an interesting question today: What are the three things online that are exciting you most? Lachlan was asked this question as part of a newspaper article in the Sydney Morning Herald. His own answers were interesting, but he also got a great response from commentors on his blog. So we thought we’d ask the same question (well, slightly re-worded) here on ReadWriteWeb.
The three web apps most exciting me currently are: Imeem (I’m enjoying exploring this admittedly trendy music site, especially the playlists), soup.io (an underrated lifestreaming app, better than Tumblr IMHO, with full-text feeds and loads of ajaxy goodness), and… Cuil. No I’m kidding about the last one. The third is Basecamp (the online project management service that keeps our RWW business on track and organized; maybe stretching to call it ‘exciting’, but as a business app it does the business).
Lachlan said that his favorite 3 things online were Twitter (www.twitter.com),
Tumblr (www.tumblr.com) and
Fire Eagle (www.fireeagle.yahoo.net).
There are literally thousands of great web apps to choose from, many of which have been profiled here on RWW. Tell us your current 3 favorites in the comments. We’d especially love to discover new things that may be flying under the radar…
