Share your stuff easily
Dropbox has a cool new feature: easy sharing.
Once you’ve saved that video of your niece’s birthday party to Dropbox, just make a link to send to grandma and she can simply watch online — no download required! This saves you the hassle of having to re-upload or attach it to an email.
Anyone with the link gets access to a snazzy page where they can view (but not edit) your stuff. Our gallery pages give your photos, videos, and even docs the gorgeous, full-browser view they deserve. This means that people who follow your link can see pictures, look at presentations, and watch home videos without having to download and open them separately.

Countdown
This is fun: make your own animated countdown at It’s Almost.
For example: this is a countdown to 11:11am on 11/11/2011.
Throw away your fax machine
I can see this being useful for anyone who pays for a second phone line for a fax machine. HelloFax invites you to throw away your fax machine and use their service instead.
Upload files from your computer to send.
Received faxes are sent to you via email.
I threw away my fax machine a long time ago, and replaced it with a printer/scanner/copier. Whenever I’m asked to sign something and send it back, email works fine — I just print the document, sign it, scan it, then send back by email.
