Australian Web Applications Get Their Own Top 100

You may have seen lists of cool, new, or popular web applications that have been developed in the USA, Europe or Asia but now we have a list of the Top 100 Australian Web Applications (well at least in the eyes of the publishers of BRW anyway).

I don’t necessarily agree with the position on the list of some of the applications, and there have definitely been omissions, but it is still an interesting insight into some great applications that are being developed right here in Australia.

Firstly I want to say well done to a couple of Working Solo friends that have made the list – Marc Lehmann and the guys at Saasu have made the grade (just after picking up the top award at CeBIT Sydney again) and Myles Eftos is chuffed that his 88Miles time tracking application (which integrates with Saasu by the way) is also on the list.

A couple of things that struck me about the list …..

• there are a large number of social networking/forum/community applications
• a strong number of these applications are about personal organisation
• a number already have a strong presence in the USA and elsewhere overseas (aka it is hard to be a big success with a web applications just focused on the Australian market)

Thanks to Ross Dawson you can see the Top 100 list for yourself and make up your own mind. He also lists the scope for the selection (just so you can check out why your favourite made it or missed out).

Are any of these on your favourites list?
