Num Sum is very fast and easy to use. You can easily create charts but I miss the pie chart. You can save the file or export it to CSV/HTML. If you like making your things personal, you can select a theme for your spreadsheet of your favorite color. By default, your spreadsheets are marked as public but don’t worry, you can mark them private aswell.

Ok, I confess, not totally uninstalled but Sharpcast is still a pretty cool tool on the web. Most of us have hundreds of pictures stored on the local harddrive. What if it breaks. You have backups? Do you backup it up every day? Well, most of us don’t.
Sharpcast is a service that lets you have your pictures online. It makes sure to synchronize all your local pictures with the online store and whenever you make any changes, the changed photo will be uploaded automatically in the background.
You can create albums for you and your friends to look at and you can even send the pictures from your windows mobile to their site.
Anyway, if you’re into photos and have problems organizing them and want to have them backed up - check it out!
Have you ever re-installed your PC just because you had “too much stuff installed”. You simply wanted a clean desktop as it looked from day 1. Well, the whole thought of my site is to uninstall everything and keep everything online so why do I need to bother with my local desktop computer? All I actually want is an web browser and an Internet connection.
I was inspired by the following post by Max Limpag where he gives you an overview of the web desktops out there.
So maybe now I need is just some minimal thin client with a webbrowser and if I need a complete “desktop” with all my applications - no need to mix Google Apps, Windows Live Apps and so on. Check my web desktops for more articles on the subject.

While living more online and uninstalled, you have to register at more and more websites. I suggest you get two e-mail addresses, one that you use for registering at sites, mailinglists, forums and so on. This will probably end up on in a spamdatabase in the end antway. Then get annother one for personal e-mails.
One suggestion could be to use the bugmenot.com, mytrashmail.com or spambox online services. They offer you to get a temporary e-mail address - completely free and no registration required. Just enter the e-mail address of your choice and it will show you the e-mails send to that address. Perfect for temporary e-mails and you don’t really care about the privacy - you just want that e-mail without giving out your real one or register for a new e-mail account.
