Wakoopa, Find Software You Never Knew You Needed
This is now one of my favorite sites. It gained that status over the weekend.
I like software. It is responsible for most of the work I actually get done. Without it, I would have to do everything manually. Other people use employees to expand their business. I use software.
Every now and then I hunt for software. A tool I need. Sometimes I find it and sometimes I don’t. And sometimes I have 54 options.
Software is supposed to save time. But sometimes finding the right tool can take a lot of it away. That’s where Wakoopa comes in.
Wakcopa suggests software based on the software you are currently using. And I have found software that I never knew existed and slo some software that I had looked for before, found and then uninstalled because it wasn’t quite what I wanted.
So over the weekend, I logged in to check out new software by clicking on the suggested tags in my home. And I really was surprised with the amount of new tools I found.
StarDock ObjectDock Plus – A Macish dock for your PC.
Fact200 – A great search tool for creating your own metasearches.
ManicTime – A time tracker for Windows. I did have a Firefox plugin that did this just for web sites. But this one does that and tracks your software usage and then you can tag certain activities as “work”,”slacking”, etc.
Of course, whether this is a good tool or another way to waste time is a good question. Yes, I lived without this software in the past. And there is always time spent learning to use new software. But I think it is.
Wakoopa, build a plugin detector in WordPress and an addon detector for Firefox and I’ll try those too. You can be my online personal shopper for what I shop for most online. But then again, I’m a geek like that.

Very cool site! Thanks for the share.
Another great time tracker to consider is TSheets.com.
With Jott.com integration, clock in/out via SMS, an iPhone mobile time tracking app, and both FreshBooks and QuickBooks integration, there’s something for everyone at TSheets.
my software is listed there well, its really getting up there in terms of a software index.
btw, typo – its wakOopa
Changing it now. I am not sure how that happens. And I think every software developer should promote a site like this along with their software. Not doing so is a mistake.

Hey bro, I use to use Object Dock Plus but it lags or slow my system down; I have 3GBs of ram and a Duo core two processor so I don’t know why it was giving me that kind of trouble. As far as the look and feel of it sitting on my desktop, I loved it. But I learned to function without it and don’t have use for it anymore.
I’ll check out those others tools you cited- thanks for sharing bro and stopping by the site.
Hey, thanks for the Digg! 
You are welcome. Yeah, I like concept of ObjectDock more than it’s reality. It slowed down things on my computer too. But Wakoopa is worth a try. God, I never knew how much software I used.

I’m disappointed with Object Dock Plus because not only did I pay for it but I was also expecting lightweight software… anyhow, maybe an upgrade will come someday. I signed up for Wakoopa. I’ll add you as a contact.

Hi
I’m doing lots of outsource work and I’m using ManicTime to record all my actions. For me it’s THE tool for the job.
I rate ManicTime with 5 stars
I recommend to give this software a try!

I too have been engaging in outsource work for some time now, and its always been a problem to me how I will be able to send my daily record to my employers.

Cool! Very nice buddy. Expanding work without manual employees will also reduce amount paid to them. Also software work more efficiently than human.
