Five on Friday - five fabulous web 2.0 tools of the week

September 12th, 2008 by Andy Merchant

Lots of great web 2.0 tools around this week due to Techcrunch 50

1, The first web 2.0 tool we have today is the winner of Techcrunch 50. Yammer is Twitter for business.10,000 people and 2,000 organizations signed up for the service on it’s first day of launch. Read a review: Yammer - Twitter for companies

2, This next one I like a lot and is very useful, it’s called RSS Mixer. Take a bunch of RSS feeds you like chuck them in the mixer and you now have just one RSS feed. Take your new feed away in the form of a url, widget, or mobile feed.

3, MeeID is a slick little online id card. It gives you 10 lines to type in facts about yourself. You can also link to all your social profiles.

4, Next is a fun entry in the five fabulous web 2.0 tools list. It is called Ulimate flash face. Remember the photo-fit used by witnesses of crimes. Use flash face to do just that, although you don’t have to have witnessed a crime to use!

5, If you like your visual web 2.0 site this one is for you, Doodle Buzz. “DoodleBuzz is a new way to read the news through an experimental interface that allows you to create typographic maps of current news stories”. - very cool!

More of the same next week.
