Favorite Web Aps of European Entrepreneurs from Traveling Geeks Trip

This is sixth in a series where I take JD Lasica’s meme “Coolest Power Tools” on a “spin” to see not what our US geeks are using, but what our European Brethren find as their favorite aps. They are digging up some fun new things which may be new to you.

I’ve queried some of my favorite new friends from Amsterdam, London and Cambridge about the tools they love. Here’s the sixth response, from Celia Francis, founder of WeeWorld in the UK.

Celia’s List:

Kodakgallery.com (used to be Ofoto in the olden days) – I post photos every month for my extended family in the UK and across the pond.
Facebook and LinkedIn – For the usual social/professional fun.
WeeWorld.com – Of course! WeeWorld is one of the most popular browser-based social games or virtual worlds for young teens.
Skype – So my kids can video chat with my parents.
Google Maps – To see exactly where I am going.
Etsy.com – Pure love of handmade items and beautiful design gets me back to this site all the time
Wolfram Alpha – Actually quite useful. It gave me the average temperature in Almeria, Spain in February. Graph and all! I like Bing too – much prettier than Google.
