Are you in a situation where you are forced to remain anonymous on Twitter, but still want to put across your point? Sending an Anonymous Tweet is a way out. It lets you tweet anything you want without you being associated with the tweet. ShhTwitter is a new service which lets you Tweet anonymously. shhtwitter-anonymous-twitter

Where it's a HIT?

ShhTwitter allows you to send a message via the micro-blogging website without having to have an account, or use your account. A couple of days back, US Open officials warned the Tennis players against tweeting during the tournament, which I feel is stupid and lame (Roddick feels the same as well!). So, now the tennis players can start using ShhTwitter and vent their ire without harming their reputations!

Where it's a MISS?

GeeMail does not require you to configure POP3 or IMAP to access GMail. Just install the program and use your user name and password like you use to login to GMail from your browser and you are done. You can use the same keyboard shortcuts like you do on the web. If you are wondering why you should use GeeMail when Google has an official offline solution for GMail - Google Gears, then you must know that GeeMail is much faster than Google Gears.
