]]>I'm a big fan of 2cloud, I would send links daily from my phone using 2cloud to my desktop to continue reading/share once I was back on my computer. I recently switched from my android phone to an iPhone 5 and was really missing having 2cloud, a lot of people use Pocket or Instapaper for this purpose, but I rarely remember to check them when I'm back on my desktop.
Then I came across SendTab, it's "a handy way to send links from one screen to another". You can share both from computer to computer, and back and forth to your phone running android/iOS as well. They have a chrome extension, firefox plugin and the best part, a bookmarklet. This is important because iOS doesn't have the share-to-any-app feature that android does (iOS can only share content to apps Apple has picked). Which means in iOS you'd have to copy the link open the app you want to send the link to, then paste it into the app - lame. A bookmarklet gets around this problem.
I recently posted to getsatisfaction.com on how to use the SendTab bookmarklet on iOS on :
Just use the bookmarklet provided for Firefox; right click on it, 'Copy Link Address' and then paste the line of javascript it copies in an email to yourself, open the email on your phone and copy the javascript, create a bookmark of any other page (eg. google.com), edit it and paste in javascript as the url instead, voila!
Sign up for free at SendTab.com, they also have an iOS app you can copy the links to for a more polished experience so support them and buy the app.

]]>"Mac applications are known for their superb design, and in the past few years UI designers have really embraced this trend by creating some really remarkable interfaces. They embrace realism, ooze texture, and generally make you stop and stare. Today we’ll look at 30 pieces of Mac software that really push the limit of great interface design. First we’ll say what the app does, then provide a screenshot followed by a brief statement about what I really love about the interface. Let’s get started – prepare to be dazzled!"
"At Appbistro, we've partnered with the best Tab Applications available. Our goal is to provide brands and businesses with a destination that allows them to enhance their Pages and learn best practices from others."
"“Is this app a keeper?” That’s what this list is all about — those apps that eventually find a permanent place on our Macs to call Home. Everyone should have these installed, regardless of what you use your Mac for."
"Windows/Linux: One of the most irritating things about reinstalling your operating system is installing all the non-OS applications you love. Allmyapps lets you select all your favorite apps and roll them into a bulk installer to make rebuilding easy."
"Your Mac's default PDF reader, Preview, does let you add sticky notes to pages, but Skim throws highlighting and circling into the mix, giving you more note-taking options. In addition, you can see all of your notes in outline form and jump to their locations, making this a great tool for marking up PDFs. Your notes are saved in the PDF but will only be read by Skim, meaning you can get a clean version back at any time by just opening the file with Preview. Skim is free, requires Mac OS X."
