Life for me will be miserable without the following applications.
Most basic of all necessities
Ten things I can’t live without:
Math is a language
Mathematics is a language that utilizes numbers and related systems to communicate ideas. Similar to other fields of study, Mathematics is based on rules of correspondence wherein the use is targeted on answering questions like ‘how many’ or ‘how much’. Mathematics is never discriminatory as it welcomes everyone who are pleased with basic concepts that can be further extended through Logic.

Finding the right Security Consultant for your website
Security is one aspect which any company should not overlook if they do their business transactions online.

If a reliable third party consultant reports everything is ok, get a second opinion from another reliable consultant. If they both agree, then your system is more likely secure.
An article spinner
An article spinner is simply an app that’s able to do what a copywriter can. Most web programmers will just code a script to regex replace words with another word with similar meaning. Others will also employ conversion from passive to active voice and vice versa.
Web page inspection using your Chrome browser
In case you haven’t used Chrome lately, a typical installation comes built-in with an addon that does what Firebug does in Firefox.
Keep cookie size to a minimum
When working with cookies, make use of the path parameter as described in http://php.net/manual/en/function.setcookie.php
The PHP manual explains it clearly.
If set to ‘/foo/’, the cookie will only be available within the /foo/ directory and all sub-directories such as /foo/bar/ of domain. The default value is the current directory that the cookie is being set in.
Note that if set to /foo, it will be available on exactly http://domain.com/foo only.
