Social Live Video

with Kondoot. It says of itself: "Kondoot.com is an Australian-based Social Media company pioneering a new virtual platform — Social Live Video — an innovative, fresh and fun combination of social networking and live-streaming video. Kondoot provides a full suite of free video options including public live broadcasts, recorded broadcasts and video chats as well as games, instant messaging and more. The website enables individuals to become broadcasting masters, sharing their story in a social networking setting, and connecting with friends, family or the world."

What this means in practice is that you have video chats without using Google hangouts, if you're really opposed to using Big G. However, it's more like broadcasting television, where people can see you and you can interact with text chat, rather than more face to face.

Sign, edit, and fax documents online

HelloFax is an interesting little tool, which works with Google Drive. If you still fax stuff to people (if you're wondering what 'fax' means, please ask someone rather older than you) then you might want to give this a go, as it will fax directly for you. Alternatively, and this is the thing that I find particularly interesting with it, is that you can automatically sign PDF forms with it. Upload a copy of your signature (or write it on the screen), save it and you're done. I've tried it and it works very easily and simply.

Cover Photo Maker for Google Plus

Did you know that now your google plus profile has a big banner behind your profile pic? They called it a "cover photo" pretty much like Facebook timeline cover with different layout and setting. It has a bigger profile photo with longer horizontal background banner. If you are concerned with your personal branding, creating a good impression for your Google+ visitor is vital.

I've played around with coverphotoeditor.com and it does a nice job - upload a couple of photographs, one of your background, and one of (probably) you, then you can save, then upload. Of course, you could just go and do the whole thing by hand, but this way you can fiddle around a little bit. Seems to work well. Very simple and quick. You can take a look at my G+ profile page if you like - I won't inflict it on you directly!
