I believe that only one word describes Ebay best…..HUGE! Established n 1995 by one man, Pierre Omidyar, Ebay has exploded into the biggest shopping center in the world. you name it, you can probably find it. Along with the website itself, many people have taken the time to build and put together many utilities to help enhance your experience. I’ve taken the liberty to list many of the FREE one’s I’ve found. There even more that you can pay for, but who wants to pay. Please feel free to comment with any additions that you recommend. I’ll be happy to add them.

Just quick and simple trick I picked up today. You ever wanted to Word wrap your Blog post around an image? Like you see here. It looks like much more attractive then extending a post well down the page and it just captures a readers attention many times.

If you’d like to do this yourself, here’s the instructions…

In html mode add the following code before the paragraph where you want the image to float.

<div style="float: right"><img style="padding: 10px 0pt 20px 20px" src="http://www.listikal.com/IMAGE%20LOCATION" /></div>

If you want it to float on the right just change float:left to float:right. Unfortunately it is either right or left, there is no center option built into css. Please note the “img style” part of the image code. This is where you specify the frame around the image itself. This stops the text from running into it.

If there is one utility that I was completely blown away by earlier this year, it’s the FREE 1-Click Answers Utility from Answers.com. No more browsing to Dictionary.com, and looking for a definition or checking your spelling. Now you can do it on the fly right in any application. Their description, pretty much explains it all:

Download 1-Click AnswersTM 2.0 for Windows and then Alt-Click on any word in any program on your screen for an instant, pop-up AnswerTip that won’t interrupt your work.

That’s right, all that you have to do is right click on ANY word in ANY program, including, documents, spreadsheets, presentations, browsers, menus, etc, etc, etc…And if you don’t know of the power of Answers.com, I’ll just let you know that it’s Dictionary.com on Steroids. Here are couple of screenshots of the power of AnswerTips:
