One year ago today we first asked that question, so now is a good time to ask it again. What 3 web apps or services do you find the most exciting right now? Note that ‘exciting’ is the keyword, so they won’t necessarily be your 3 favorite or most used web apps or services. For example Facebook would make many people’s list of 3 favorite sites, but does it get you all tingly with excitement these days? So, what we want to know is: what 3 apps get your juices flowing right now.
We did an informal poll at the ReadWriteWeb office (actually a Skype room) and our picks are below. We’d love to know yours as well, so please leave a comment telling us the 3 web apps or services that excite you the most.
RWW Team:
Richard MacManus:Pachube (connecting environments), Peoplebrowsr desktop (Twitter app), Wolfram Alpha (computational knowledge engine)
Marshall Kirkpatrick:Know Thy Congressman (a bookmarklet that displays political and biographical information), Apture (adds multimedia to websites), Blip.fm (online music)
