Since it’s Friday I thought I would focus on something that could help many people. Indeed.com is one of the best job search engines on the net! They offer location based and keyword based searching options. They also aggregate many jobs from other online job boards making this awesome site a perfect tool for those out there looking for a new job. It will be interesting if Indeed will be able to stay relevant in the online job posting market since so many other players are out there, however if they stick to doing what they do best they should have a good shot.

hulu.com

I know I am not exactly leading the revolution by today’s post and am a little surprised I haven’t covered this already. Hulu.com rocks, plain and simple. Their user interface is easy to use. Their indexing is very well done and things are simple to find. They have really provided a realistic approach to somewhat replacing Cable/Dish TV service with the ability to watch so many awesome shows online. I know several folks who have eliminated their paid TV service and this wouldn’t have been possible without the likes of kick ass services like Hulu.com.

Okay you have to admit it… normal font is boring. In fact it is boring to the point of almost being annoying! Well thanks to dafont.com your fonts no longer need to worry about being boring. They bring literally thousands of some of the most creative, well organized and FREE (at least for personal use) fonts around. I can spend hours looking through the vast selection they have and it really helps get my creative juices going. I highly recommend checking out dafont.com.

buy.com

Ok so I am struggling a bit to figure out how to write this and not make it sound like an advertisement. On this Friday edition today’s site is buy.com. I know right, you’re saying but Yo! this is an online shopping site! Yes, you’re correct, but it has also been one of the very best online shopping sites I have had the pleasure of using over the last 15 years. They are super reliable, they have a very good selection, and their prices are reasonable. Lets put it this way, if you have ever bought anything at a local electronics store, you need to change your habits and checkout buy.com. I have yet to find anything at a local store that rivals the prices I have been able to get online. So if there is something you are looking to buy, why not start out with buy.com first?

I must admit it… one of my guilty pleasures is dining out. However in this day and age it is not always an option to dine out, which is where today’s site is so handy. Copykat.com takes restaurant favorites and turns them into very comparable home recipes. The selection of recipes ranges too from Sonic fast food to Cracker Barrel to Olive Garden. Using copykat.com will save you money, often times provide better service then you’ll get at many of these restaurants, and provide you some great delicious tasting food.

After a few days out of town Yo! Totally is back with a Monday morning edition. Today we’re featuring a site that is super useful and I find myself using it often when asked where is a good place to start online when trying to find current information on a specific topic. The site is alltop.com and was started by Guy Kawasaki. Alltop positions itself as an “online magazine rack” of popular topics, and boy does it ever deliver. Some of the topics I have used Alltop for include “product management“, “Hip Hop“, “Cars” and “Marketing”

mint.com

Now I have never been the best with money management. In fact I have kind of sucked at it. Well this all changed when I discovered mint.com. I have tried other money management solutions in the past such as Microsoft Money and Quicken Lite, but they were always more of a hassle then anything. Mint on the other hand has been great at keeping me on track with my personal money management goals. They tie together banking, investment, and credit information to give a nice overview of your situation. Mint hasn’t always worked perfect and I have had issues with some of the institutions I use for banking and investments not currently listing with Mint, but they make it easy enough to send an add request to that institution. I now recommend to all friends and family that they use Mint; I’d recommend you check it out as well.
