Microsoft Live Labs Thumbtack<\/a> is an easy way to save links, photos, and anything else you can find on bunch of different Web sites to a single place.\u00a0 Grab the stuff you want, put it into a Thumbtack collection, then get to it from anywhere you can get online.\u00a0 Share it with your friends, or just keep it for yourself. It\u2019s way easier than sending a bunch of links in an e-mail, and even easier than setting\u00a0lots of\u00a0favorites in your browser.\u00a0<\/div>\n

Let\u2019s say you\u2019re trying to find an apartment and your roommate isn\u2019t sitting next to you.\u00a0 You could send a lot of links in an e-mail, and even attach some photos.\u00a0 But that\u2019s not going to show her everything at once\u2014she\u2019d have to click each link and go back and forth among the windows.\u00a0 Instead, you could save every apartment to a single Thumbtack collection\u2014 pictures, prices and your own comments about what you like about each one\u2014and then send a single URL to her.\u00a0 She opens your collection and bam, all the information she needs is right in front of her, all in one place.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Bookmarklet makes it even easier to add to your collections–you can do it with just a click.\u00a0 Plus Thumbtack has gadgets, like the address gadget that will automatically find the address of items in your collection and show you a map of exactly where that place is.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
