Here’s what I was using in January 2007. Not a lot has changed. The major change is that I’m using a lot of these apps on my iPhone instead of a PC. Here’s the update.

• Flickr (new, much heavier usage these days, primarily on PC)
• Read It Later (new, I use it on my iPhone and PC)
• Google Maps (new, use as default on iPhone)
• AIM (new, use it on my iPhone only)
• Facebook (new, much heavier usage these days on both PC and iPhone)
• PB Wiki (new, prior wiki – Schtuff – was bought by PB Wiki, use on PC)
• Delicious (no change, primarily on PC)
• Google Personalized Home Page (no change, primarily on PC)
• Linkedin (no change, primarily on PC)
• Meebo (no change, use on PC only)
• Microsoft Outlook Web Access (no change, PC only)
• Wells Fargo Online Banking (no change, primarily on PC)
• WordPress through Yahoo Web Hosting (no change, primarily on PC)
• Yahoo Mail (no change, though also using on both PC and iPhone)
• Yahoo Maps (no change on PC)

Deletions from the list:

• Match.com and Yahoo Personals (I haven’t used any online dating apps in over a year.)
• Yahoo Briefcase (killed by Yahoo, I miss it)

One obvious omission from this list is Twitter. I don’t like Twitter. I don’t see the necessity to tweet everything I do or to see what everyone else is doing at all times. It seems like a waste of time. Anything good eventually ends up in the media, in someone’s blog, or on Facebook. I have the patience to wait for this to happen.
