It’s time once again for one of our most popular topics – the Refresh Tool Roundup. Unlike most meetings, we divide this one into 5 minute segments to give you the chance to brag on your favorite tools, share a tip or reveal that secret weapon that takes a project from good to great. Anyone who is interested will have five minutes to show off an app, service, tool, plugin or method that they think others would find useful. The tools can be for developing, designing, writing, running a small business or maintaining your sanity.
Update: Here Are the Tools
In no particular order…
- Mark Phillip – How easy it is to build Google Extensions
- Ryan Joy – Charles & TotalFinder
- Dave Rupert – whichloadsfaster.com
- Christian McDonald – Passpack
- Alex Sexton – Modernizr

- Kyle Simpson – Syn – a Standalone Synthetic Event Library.
- Annette Priest – DIY mobile user testing rig
- Matt Thompson – Secret content editing mode:

- In the address bar type
javascript:document.body.contentEditable='true';document.designMode='on'; - Edit any text in the Web page
- Michelle Greer - using to compete.com measure influence of content online
- Steve Stedman - meetinbetween.us
- Karen Kreps - Tungle.me
- Jesse Crouch - pastee - the secure pastebin

Some Quick Guidelines
- No self promotion
- No demos that requires a ton of bandwidth (video conferencing etc.) as we have a small pipe to work with at BB. If you just want to talk about a tool that uses a lot of bandwidth, that's cool.
- Be prepared - bring a laptop if what you're going to show off is an actual app, otherwise, make sure to have the URL with you at the meeting
We have 15 slots available, so if you're interested in presenting, contact Alex and he'll put you on the agenda.
