The Best of the Free Internet

We used to have a saying: "The Internet should be free." It's still true, but I digress. I've found over the years that some free online services really just work better (for me at least) than others. Here they are:

Blogger's Blog Service (duh)
FireFox Browser
MSN's Hotmail or Yahoo's Email
MSN's Instant Messenger or Yahoo's Messenger
Yahoo's Photo Albums
Google Searching
FreeServers
NetZero
WikiPedia
Download.com and SourceForge.net
Real.com
