Desktop search: None Web browser: Firefox; Used to be an IE man since I used an old version of Movable Type that worked best on it. I tried Firefox as my prime brower and am almost hooked. The tabbed browsing is a taskbar space-saver. RSS reading: RSSOwl because I like the speed of a desktop reader. I also have a few feeds on my MyYahoo page. Weblogging: I recently moved to WordPress. It blocks all the spam my old version of Movable Type didn't. I also like the plug-in architecture. PDA: None. I barely use my cell phone. I would like an inexpensive device to write weblog post when I don't have computer access. E-mail: SquirrelMail and Thunderbird

It downloads posts (fairly quickly, too) and is very quick. You can go through them almost like emails (just push the delete key and they are gone) or do something else like file them, take notes from them, keep them sitting there, etc. I love it.

I found it a bit sluggish for me, but then I also like to be able to read my posts offline while on the ferry. Scoble likes it, so it must be alright. He's pretty harsh on feed readers.

Nice app and good features. I haven't seen an update for a while, but I hope they improve it. I'm glad that you're hoping into the 21st century now ;-). <strike>George</strike>William: I agree. I like open source apps a lot myself. I tried to go that route for a number of years, but just found that collaborating with mainstream users kept forcing me back into Microsoft's camp. Skype and Gtalk are clear winners in my book. I like Google Docs too ... the import/export to Word is very nice. Doug: I like LW as well. Nice app and good features.
