When you book a holiday, buy a gadget or download an album, chances are, if you’re anything like me, you read all the reviews on Amazon, TripAdvisor and iTunes before parting with your cash.

The Ego app website explains it best. Ego gives you one central-and lovely-location to check web statistics that matter to you. With support for Feedburner, Google Analytics, Google PageRankTM, Mint, Squarespace...

During the last six months Twitter has gone crazy. In fact 75% of the tweeps now using Twitter have only joined this year.
