Useful Applications
Tuesday, February 28, 2006

Welcome to the fresh new face of Surestate Ltd. We won't bore you with loads of gumpf about the company, but instead point you in the direction of some great tools and applications we've been finding useful over the past couple of months.

First up is Drop Send, using a simple web interface (or the small downloadable applications for OSX and Windows) you can navigate to a file on your computer, enter an email address, click send and your file, which can be up to 1GB (and you can send more than one file), begins its journey to the recipient. Once the email lands in their inbox, they simply click the link to download the file. It couldn't be easier!

Second is developed by one of our very own at Surestate. It's simple, effective and free. An Apple Dashboard Widget (sorry Windows users) that calculates VAT amounts at the click of a button. Download the widget from the Apple Website.

Feedback from VAT Calculator users... extracts from emails

I assume you have kindly generated the VAT widget which is GREAT, indeed brilliant!

Just wanted to say a big "thank you!" for the excellent VAT widget - this is going to save me hours doing my invoices...
