“Life Savers” – 5 Web Apps That Increase Productivity

So the new year has come and gone but here we are, still busy lying to rest the ghosts of the naughty Noughties past (too many of them, I say!) – Goodbye Michael Jackson (2009)! Goodbye Bear Stearns (2008)! Hello Youtube (2005)! Hello Facebook (2004)!…

Even so, let’s welcome the Anxious Teenies, a whole new decade of uncertainty and opportunity which has begun opening up for us. The breakthroughs which we have reveled in during the Noughties (so called due to a play on the word Nought which stands for 0 in many English speaking countries) will be topped and improved on, enabling us to become even more connected with the world around us.

With the global economy being brought to its knees in the wake of the recent financial tsunami, it has become even more imperative for startups to run efficient and productive operations in order to enable the David and Goliath story to remain an urbane fixture.

As such, we have listed 5 web apps in order to enable you and your startup to survive the urban jungle out there. Read more
