I’m always on the lookout for tools and gadgets that are going to make my (work) life easier… I have a couple of web tools I use everyday or almost every day when designing or just basically running my business.

But today I came across a link via twitter that is heaven sent…..

http://vectips.com/tricks/10-free-and-extremely-useful-illustrator-scripts – It’s a bunch of scripts for illustrator that makes things like converting colours easier.

If you are a designer it’s little things like these that make your life easier and your work flow faster not to mention the adrenaline boost when you encounter exciting things like this!

Maybe it’s just the geek in me…

My other favorite tools….

Twitter Micro Blogging tool (See Andrea’s new Blog about twitter)

Skype – Instant messaging service

Google Analytics – Stats for your website

Woopra -  Stats for your website (Live!) you can actually talk to the people who are roaming around on your site this very minute….

Filezilla – FTP file Transfer

Pando – Send up to a 1G file by e-mail

Acrobat PDF -  I use this for Proofing files… It’s great! My clients can comment right on the PDF and send it back to me. (Client’s only need a reader)

They are all free except for Adobe Acrobat.

I’d love to hear about your favorite web tool… or things that make your work/life easier.
