A new service called Guerrilla Mail creates email addresses that are only active for 60 minutes. Within that time frame you are allowed to receive and send emails. It is ideal for online services you only on plan to using once that require email addresses. Once your done, you don’t have to worry about that site’s pesky spam emails anymore. Enjoy.

Icon Dock – Sleek Icons

bt — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 01:04:34 +0000

I’m a web developer, so I’m often on the lookout for good icon resources, whether I’m going to be using them for my job job or for my iDesign business. When I was looking over some jQuery resources, I stumbled upon a site that a very legit jQuery developer had just launched, called IconDock. This site is awesome if you need to purchase some icons, with a slick jQuery shopping cart, and a ton of gorgeous icons. Plus, in addition to all the paid ones, they have a HUGE selection of free icons, and links to other blogs that have just hundreds of icon sets.

It’s a little difficult to find the free master list, but I’ll show you the steps needed to navigate there. Once you go to IconDock, click ‘Free Icons’ in the upper right corner. Then, click the first set, ‘15 Free Origami Icons’, then scroll down and on the bottom left you will see an arrow that says ‘Master List of Free Icons’. Click on that, and welcome yourself to icon paradise.

Online in a foreign country, and missing your loved ones? Want a meaningful way to communicate with them that is more physical and personal than an email? Check out Blurtt, a new service that lets you send postcards just by choosing one that you would like online. They send it for you and everything, and the best part is it’s much cheaper than buying and mailing an actual postcard. Also, there’s a bunch of cool features like uploading your own postcard designs, or even uploading your own custom font.
