Permatime
A service that lets you specify several timezones and view the current time for each. It also can create a "bookmark" to a specific point in time that can be shared with others to help coordinate scheduling meetings. Nice, simple, clean design and easy to use.
jTemplates - template engine in JavaScript
A plugin for jQuery that makes client side dynamic content templates. Kind of like PHP on the client-side. Great for making repeating content such as displaying an RSS feed pulled from an Ajax call. This is going to come in handy for sure.
Rightload: About Rightload - Upload files from your right-click menu
Rightload is a small program that allows you to quickly upload files directly from a Windows folder to your server. Instead of using complicated software just to upload a few pictures, you just right-click on the files, select the server and target folder and Rightload will do the rest for you.
N.E.R.D.: Backup your present windows Device Drivers
A free app that will back up your device driver information on Windows so you can restore it when you install something and it totally screws up everything.
Shuella - your shoe umbrella
Wraps for your shoes to wear when it rains and protect them from the water. Much nicer looking than golashes and they fold right into a compact pouch. Good idea even though a bit pricey. A must have for somewhere like Seattle, though.
Firebug Lite - Webmonkey
Sweet! A cross-browser version of Firebug that can even work with IE. This will most definitely come in handy.
quikmaps.com :: maps for the masses
A tool that allows you to draw on Google Maps and share your annotations with others via link or widget on your website, or even by GPX on your GPS device.
textsnip - Keep your text & code formatting safe from IM and Email

Featured Windows Download: gAttach Fully Integrates Gmail into the Windows Desktop
A helpful tool that changes the default mail-to action in XP to your Gmail accounts instead of Outlook.
When is Good : Create Event
A nice, simple tool for figuring out when a time is best for everyone to meet. Similar to a few other tools like Meet-O-Matic (http://meetomatic.com) or even Doodle (http://doodle.ch) but seems a little cleaner and easier to use.
EasyRGB - The inimitable RGB and COLOR search engine!
Nice tool for generating color harmony palettes from a color you specify as RGB or hex. It also converts for you from whichever standard you provide to the other so that's handy for web design as well.
» Toolbox CSS
How useful! A collection of utility-type functional CSS classes that you typically use in most projects over and over again. Helps provide consistency between projects and saves time reinventing (and testing) the wheel. Things such as floats and clearing, hiding, showing, text alignment and more.

txt2re: headache relief for programmers :: regular expression generator
A cool service that lets you enter a sample string and then "graphically" build a regular expression from it. A bit confusing at first glance but very cool and useful.
Domize - the better instant domain search. Find free domain names quickly, with teh power of AJAX!
An ajaxy domain search tool that gives you a real-time update on available domain names and some variations. Links to Godaddy if you find one you want to buy. It's nice and slick and done over https to keep your searches from being snooped. But you never know if the creators aren't looking at the results themselves. For some reason the nice design lends a lot of credibility.

VectorMagic | Precision Bitmap to Vector Conversion Online
-
An online service that will take a bitmap and trace it into vectors. You can download the results in EPS, SVG or PNG formats. Seems to do a good job at least to get you started on a good conversion! And you can't beat free.

A tool that lets you use TortoiseSVN with Team Foundation Server. That way you don't have to use the cluncky Visual Studio Team Edition client to do source control. Very sweet.
