Services

If you are looking for a virtual private server, I highly recommend Linode. I have been with them since 2007, and have been very pleased with their service. I have gone through 4 other VPS providers over the last 5 years, and Linode is by far the best I've dealt with.

Dreamhost is an affordable web host which provides a lot of software available using their "one-click-install" method including Wordpress 3.0, Moodle, MediaWiki, OpenVBX, StatusNet and more.

Dropbox is a great way to keep files in sync between multiple computers, or for collaborating with multiple people on a project. It seamlessly syncs files and integrates with your OS's filesystem so it doesn't feel like a separate program that's running.

Sticker Mule is a fantastic sticker printing company. My favorite are the die cut stickers, which they will cut to any shape. They are also quite affordable, and very quick.

The Trent 8900mAh Battery is a must-have if you're traveling or at conferences or on long bike rides. I can charge my phone up a few times from it. It feels solid, not plasticky, but isn't too heavy. Definitely something you'd want to throw in a bag, tho.
