This is only sort of a geek toy, because non-geeky types will appreciate it as well. So what is Backpack? Imagine if you will, iCal, Address Book, and Stickies on steroids. That’s probably the best way to describe Backpack. Or maybe as what its name implies; it’s a virtual backpack to store and organize your stuff. You can create lists and attach images, files, and contacts to it. There are many different types of lists you can make. It’s fast, it’s flexible, it’s cool, and it’s incredibly useful. It’s a truly innovative approach to information management. Since Backpack is web-based, it’s accessible from most computers, not stuck on one computer. As a result, there is not need to sync.

Assorted Geekery features a more-detailed description of Backpack. Backpack works on Safari, IE 6, Firefox, and IE 5 Mac.
