Cool Download: Digsby
I don't know about you, but sometimes I get lost when I'm forced to log in and tab through my multiple email accounts and instant messenger clients — all while trying to keep up on my Myspace and Facebook pages (not to mention Twitter that's a full time job in itself) throughout the day. What can I say, I'm addicted to staying connected!
So imagine my utter relief when I found Digsby — a life saving application that gathers up all those different accounts, and keeps them neatly in one convenient spot.

Geek Tip: Get Flickr Email Notifications
Having a flickr account is kinda like having an email account—you always have to check it for new messages, which can get very tedious. Thankfully flickr is now offering to send email notifications via email when people comment on your photos or when your contacts upload new photo—so you don't have to keep checking it. According to Lifehacker, this isn't a brand new feature, just something that has gone unnoticed by many!
Ask a Geek Girl: What Does In-and-Out Holster Mean on My BB?
Dear GeekSugar,
I just got a new BlackBerry and was very excited to select my new ringtone and SMS notification sounds. When I am in my profiles, there's an option for setting for In Holster and Out of Holster, but I don't know what that means. Please help!
Download of the Day: Buy Later
I feel like every holiday season, there's at least one gadget that everyone is trying to get their hands on — remember the instanity with the Wii?
If there's a certain product that you're waiting to come back into stock, but you don't want to have to keep searching Amazon every day to see if it's available, there's a download called Buy Later, which will come in handy.
After downloading this Firefox extension, Buy Later will add a button to Amazon.com webpages and monitors when specific products come back in stock.

WWDC's Fresh New iPhone: The New APIs
We just got a refresher on OS 3.0 for the iPhone at WWDC, and now it's time to hear about some great new APIs for the developers — which means great new apps for us users.
- In App Purchase: In App Purchase lets you buy things within an app, so you can "go shopping" with the business that sold you the app with the same terms as any point of purchase. And P.S.: "free apps remain free" — so if you ever get a free app, it's free for you forever.
- Support For Peer to Peer Connectivity: New P2P support automatically finds the other iPhone you're trying to connect with, like if you want to play a game against a friend with your two phones — no pairing necessary!
- Accessories: Hardware accessories can be paired with apps, like Johnson's LifeScan insulin app for diabetics — either wirelessy over bluetooth or over the wire.
Get Daily Weather Forecasts Right on Your Cell Phone
I ran into a little problem the other day. To make a long story short, I overestimated how warm the weather was going to be and froze my butt off at work. I'm sure by taking one look at my Summer attire, FabSugar must have wondered if I had paid attention to the frigid forecast — which I didn't — but boy did I learn my lesson.

I'm still recovering from the happiness high I received yesterday thanks to Gmail's announcement of YouTube, Picasa, Flickr and Yelp previews labs. But let the happiness high continue (I'm even more elated with this news), because there's now an Undo Send lab! Probably even more useful than the Mail Goggles Lab, this new "Undo" option can save you many headaches and sleepless nights.
