I've had a gmail account for email, but never really went crazy with settings, I mean its email.
My friend just turned me on to all the features though, things I needed, and it was always in front of my nose like accessing all my email accounts through gmail, documents creation, calender, access to picasa etc, etc. I got a boner playing with this stuff today, no joke.

question is, what other sites is everyone else using that have awesome tools for free?

EDIT: another example I can think of fitday.com for nutritional management.

I heard Google is good too, no guarantee.

the last cool thing i tried was a Piclens plugin for Firefox. give it a whirl, it's neat. even though i don't really use it that much.

I kind of like Stumbleupon at times. I've found a bunch of cool sites using it that I never would have found otherwise.

Calendar sync with Outlook and my PDA is awesome. I like the Googlechat too.

if you grab your weiner and pull on it, after a while you get this good feeling.

I have this neat calculator that can add, subtract, multiply and divide. Woot! No more abacus for me!

They have special lasers that zap the seeds away. Apparently it vaporizes seed media but leaves melon media alone.

Best site if you browse places like digg del.icio.us newsvine reddit and the like. It puts all their headlines in one convenient place for you to browse through.
