• BannerSnack - Create great banners in many sizes in Flash and HTML5. The banners can include any text and image you want. If anyone remembers Swish,  it’s just like that if not better and easier to use.
• PhotoSnack – Upload your photos and create amazing slideshows that you can then download, embed on your website or copy and paste links to share the slideshow on a host of third party social websites.
• PodSnack – allows you to compile a playlist in customisable mp3 players. You can then embed or link these players to your website.
• TubeSnack – Like PodSnack, but with videos. You can add videos to a playlist either from YouTube or from your own server. The great bonus here is that the videos aren’t in Flash and so will work on your iPhone and iPad.
• QuizSnack – Hold your horses, this one isn’t just for quizzes. You can also use it for polls and surveys. You don’t even need your own website as you can publish your questions straight onto Facebook or other social websites.
• FlipSnack – Convert exisiting pdf documents into great looking pages similar to thos on iBook. Your pages will flip over – it’s looks flash. But unlike Flash, this also works on iPhones and iPads too!
• SlideSnack – If you have slide show presentations or documents in Word, Keynote or Powerpoint, this app will convert them easily and give you simple links that you can use to share the slide show with friends or collegues. I believe you can even add voice clips too.

Isn’t that an incredible array of stuff! All free too! Aren’t you guys lucky! There are even a few beautifully animated videos to get you started for some of the apps and each site also has a Live Chat help facility. Because it’s free, most of your production will be watermarked by the company, but there is an option to upgrade your account to lose this.

Pen.io was featured on this weeks BBC’s Click. I took a quick look and found that it offered a very simple solution to web page creation, albeit very simple.

I have done a quick demo by creating an ActorCV Pen.io Demo Page. It even has a great cut and paste embed feature so you can see it below.

The site and concept are still very young and the authors promise exciting new developments in the future.

Also, check out www.posterous.com – another great blog site that’s free to sign up to.

I have mentioned the brilliant website Mailchimp before. In a nutshell, it provides everything you would need to manage email campaigns including functions to collect and store peoples email addresses, design and send impressive looking emails and monitor what happens to those emails after you’ve sent them (whether they’re opened or if email addresses are dead ones etc…) on a thorough statistical level. And on a starter level, it’s free to use!
This site is ever expanding. Their latest exciting news includes the release of a free app for iPhone and Android users which allows you to monitor your latest campaign statistics whilst on the move. Fabulous stuff.
