Aye ;) - Tony

I've noticed that too. I'm really enjoying Evernote especially. - Amanda Sims

I recently switched from NetNewsWire to Google Reader.. It's nice to not worry about syncing. - Mark Robinson from Nambu

I Had been on a microsoft Office fast for the past 4 months, I only use online Apps like Evernote, and Google Docs, FluidApp has revolutionized all of that even More! I now Just have Google Docs on my desktop, along with GETDROPBOX.COM for my Online storage (2gigs free!) Seriously I am doing more and more ministry in "the cloud" - Ryan Smith

i use evernote to "scan" documents i need at work that are already in "paper" form. beats me running to the xerox machine and scanning them via email to my comp. plus i can email them straight from my phone. just emailed my boss the staff cellphone list today that he couldn't find but was sitting in my evernote app. - Tyler Gillies

I use google docs, friendfeed and evernote. Currently trying to figure out how to best use Tumblr. - michael mcminn

Justin, me too. I've started using gmail after outlook crashed on me one last time a couple weeks ago. My company is moving all our policies and procedures onto Google Docs. I'm considering moving from a desktop RSS reader to Google Reader, but haven't made the move yet. - Paul Steinbrueck

or stop using an "rss reader" and import your rss feeds into a private/semi private group. i haven't opened up google reader once since i started using friendfeed heavily. - Tyler Gillies

Yes. I love using all of those. I am enjoying Evernote more and more - John Snyder

Wow. This is a great discussion going on here... Tyler, how do you "scan" stuff via evernote? The only app that I can find that does OCR stuff is JotNot... But it seems buggy. - Justin Wise

A friend of mine mentioned that the new iPhone 3GS has a macro mode that really helps scanning documents up close into Evernote. I could be wrong, but I believe that's what he said. Have the 3G here. - Gabe Taviano

Have you tried Springpad? It looks very promising - http://www.springpadit.com/ and it's totally free. I'm also trying out Evernote. - Jannifer @wordsforliving

Tyler- with FF as an RSS reader, what do you do to "star" items to come back to later, or send (email) items to ppl who don't use FF? - Justin

I would like to know- I love Tumblr but still am navigating myself through it. I really like the reblog feature. Do you want to use Tumblr to help create community cohesiveness or as a blog interface? - Ashley A Smith

Honestly I don't know. I was in the process of transfering my blog from blogger over to wordpress when I (stupidly) let my domain name expire... anyway, so not so much as a blog, unless I make a place where blogs entries not really fitting my categories of my main blog. I don't know I just really like the look and usability of Tumblr but think I need to make it a focused part of how I use social media, now it just collects some of my updates from other sources like twitter. - michael mcminn

I've tried to use it - but all that I was using it for is now done better by posterous, in my opinion. - Tony

As much as I hate to say it, Tumblr has a very narrow niche, especially non-traditional blogging, with as many the same features as most blogging platforms. It is more of a Dart-board where you can throw up a thought here a picture there, a song here and share the details instead of just talking about them. I would suggest using it like a customized Twitpic, all posts through tumblr go to twitter with a custom tumblr address. Good Luck (ministryhd.tumblr.com) - Ryan Smith

MWUHHAHAHAH - Tony
