Get Important Messages While Away

This time saving site is not for you — it’s for your prospects, friends, and associates who need to contact you in a hurry. Your clients and family already know exactly which chain to pull… but inbound contacts from others can also be important (especially to them) and this tool give you a way to satisfy them.

On your web site Contact page, put up a link to AwayFind, a tool that will relay your prospect’s message to your email AND to your cell phone via text message WITHOUT giving them your cell phone! You can also put this link in your email signature.

This link, for example, takes you to a form for reaching me (via my Disambiguator handle) and I will get the message immediately. Go ahead – try it.

Find an Unused Domain

Are you frustrated by the trial-and-error process of finding an unused domain name for your web site?

Choose from this great list of tools for finding that elusive internet domain.

Another tool not listed there is Make Words. I particularly liked their ability to select a word theme to use in combination, like “actions” or “emotions.”


The reason these are time saving sites is that they will check the registration databases immediately to let you know that a name is available.

Expose Website Technologies

Are you building an online presence? If so, you’re probably interested in the time saving software that others  are using on their web sites.

Here’s a shortcut to finding all that out:

Not only can you find out what technologies are running on a given web site, but you’ll get an “altern” link that lists alternatives to each tool in use. This is a huge time saver for internet property builders hunting appropriate tools.
