Are you using Gmail in the browser as your main mail client (like me)? Kiwi is a 'wrapper' app that gives Gmail its own application window on your Mac. Amongst other handy features, Kiwi also makes managing multiple Gmail accounts easier.

I was really surprised to find that Blipcast's Kickstarter was unsuccessful. But apparently they are going ahead with its production anyway. It's such a great idea: connect it to any device with an audio jack and stream the sound live to your phone (where you can listen with headphones). Brilliant!

Trint syncs text with audio and video, making it faster and easier to get semi-automated transcriptions of your content. The innovative part is its editor where the written content is editable in real time – the audio stops with your edits. It's a pretty cool idea that went viral when they launched recently. The service collapsed under the load, so now there's an invite system to onboard new users.

Stickers are cool, but stamps are coming back big time! With Stamps & Sons making a stamp from your company's logo is as easy as dropping an image file onto their homepage. Look how artsy-crafty you are!

Wiplo is a beautifully simplistic progress board where teams can track the progress of shared tasks. If Trello is too complex and to-do list apps too to-do-y, Wiplo might be the right choice for you and your team.
