Apps is a big catch word these days and have been since Apple popularized the word with their iTunes App Store. But apps aren’t just for mobile, there are desktop apps that you can download and install on your computer and web apps that run right on a web site, such as Delicious and Office 365. One of the most popular types of web apps are conversion tools, for things like converting a file from one audio or video format to another.
There is a new web site, called Productive Web Apps, that aims to bring all of the many web apps available into one easy to use location. You can search for apps by name or function or you can browse by new releases, featured, and categories. If you know of, or have created an app, then you can submit it to them.
Productive Web Apps is free to use and doesn’t require any kind of sign-up. Not all of the web apps listed are free to use, but most paid apps do offer free trials.

These days everyone has devices – smartphones, tablets, MP3 players, etc. That’s great, but the problem arises when something goes wrong that calls for a “factory reset”, or “hard reset” as it’s sometimes called. Sometimes there is a clear way of doing this, but often times there isn’t. Fortunately there is a new web site to help users out out with this.
Factory Reset has lists of instructions categorized by device type.You can also search the site by the model of the device you need to reset. The categories are extensive – from A/V receivers to calculators to tablets, and everything else you can think of. They have over 80 televisions, almost 90 video receivers and so much more. The site is a wiki, so if you notice a device you own isn’t listed, you can add the reset method and help others.
