The title really says it all. Domize helps you find domain names based on the entries you type into the search bar. It really is incredibly helpful when you have exhausted all means of finding a cool new and short domain name for your next BIG web property. Credit for the find goes to Darren Rowse from Problogger, he shot out a twit with it. Thanks Darren.

Recently I got into using the entire web to my advantage, namely the mobile market.
I know, old news Ryan get to the point!
Fine! Heres the deal. So I was developing a variety of websites today for the iPhone. Now I work on Vista, so the Apple SDK is out of the question for now. Every single iPhone “Simulator” out there is lame. All it they are doing is giving you a iPhone frame with an iframe inside of it. So the question begs, how do I really know this website will work on an iPhone if I dont have one?
Well I’ll tell you the secret I found today. Download the latest version of Safari(I think you know where to find it). Once you’re all set there. Goto Edit > Preferences. Then select the Advanced tab and check the Show Develop Menu in menu bar option. Close that window and goto Develop > User Agent > iPhone(or iPod Touch).
Bingo! You’re now viewing the webpage as you would if you were on an iPhone. Obviously to get the full effect you’ll need to shrink you’re browser window to match the 320PX width. Now that you can view in the iPhone style we can add some calls in our code to check the user agent for iPhone that way our websites will show special things to iPhone users.

SEO for Firefox is something every webmaster shouldnt be working without. What this plugin is it will append various important stats to search results on google. Things like PR, cache, supplmental, alexa rank, etc etc. I use it on a regular basis to help me track important stats for my various sites, instead of some website that most people may goto to find this kind of similar info out. One of the more important recent additions is the supplemental indexing tracker. This has really helped me keep a close eye on the duplicate content some of my sites create, and easily get rid of it. This is definitely a plugin I cant live without now.
