I agree, and I am jealous

I agree with you on Wufoo...I've used it on several jobs and it has saved me countless hours of writing the code, maintaining the DB, etc. It's a wonderful app. I was a beta tester for them, and reported several bugs (including 1 big time bug that landed me a free "Ad hoc" plan for life). I've tried the competition, and I always come back to this one.

I recently converted my personal desktop to LogMeIn after using VNC on my desktop and then LogMeIn for family members/friends in need of remote help. I miss some of the "nerd value" of using VNC, but LogMeIn really is a no brainer. I've been keeping on eye on Igniter and I can't wait to give it a try. I carry my U3-powered thumb drive with me all the time at school so this will be great.

Well crap...I just read the full Cnet review ...I didn't realize Ignition isn't going to be free. That sucks. Oh well I guess.
EditGrid do a better job compare to G spreadsheet

A pretty comprehensive comparison between EditGrid and Google's spreadsheet can be found out here ( http://www.editgrid.com/tnc/pkchan/EditGrid_v._Google ), check this out, or try EditGrid directly here ( http://www.editgrid.com/new ) and see which one you prefer.

Don't Forget Zoho
by gsybloke March 10, 2007 12:42 AM PST
I haven't used EditGrid, but I use Zoho all the time on multiple PC's, and Mac's. It has certainly freed me from M/S's office.
I also use LogmeIn which is quite franckly fantastic. The only issue I have with it is that it cannot currently control Mac's. You can control PC from a MAC but you can not control a Mac from any other PC. So if you're reading this LogMe please develop the app needed to do so.

I've used google spreadsheet, is it now called Google Docs?, for a while. Never used LogMeIn but have used I'm InTouch, http://www.imintouch.net, which sounds similar.

LogMeIn is way too expensive these days. I use Techinline Remote Desktop (www.techinline.com). I love the simplicity of connecting to the client since you don't need to install anything
