Tools we use — Part I (Web apps)
In this post I’d like to share some of the web apps we use at astech.
Git Repos
Beanstalkapp — love the deploy feature — no more FTP just push to beanstalk and see it transferred to the server in an instant — that’s the reason they get my money instead of github.
Bitbucket — free unlimited repos for teams of 5.
Optimize images
Smush.it — For PNGs and JPEGmini for JPEGs
SpriteCow — to create CSS sprite sheets
Pingdom to test page load times.
Time Tracking
clockingit.com — an excellent free app to track projects — but it seems flaky these days.
toggl.com — also free for a team of 5
Google apps for chat/docs/mail
Business Development
Rapportive — shows profiles of clients as well as social updates
