Bootstrapper’s List of 100 Must-Have Freelancer Tools

Uploaded with Skitch!

Bootstrapper has a great list of 100 tools freelancers can’t live without. A couple of the invoicing tools appeared on my post a couple of months ago, Best Online Invoicing Applications. And I also listed a couple of the gigs sites on my post 36 Links for Getting New Business back in July, but many of these tools are new to me as well.

I’m looking forward to going through the list and seeing which ones might work for me.

While I can’t imagine juggling 100 online or software tools (and the list isn’t meant to imply that you should—there are multiple apps offering similar functionality), it’s amazing how many you may actually use already. For example, from the list, I already use NetVibes, Firefox, NovaMind, Skype, Creative Commons, Quickbooks, and some of the other more common apps (like gMail).

So, while you might think Bootstrapper’s list is overkill, give it a chance and go pick out some killer apps from the Bootstrapper list.
