Word2Text is a simple tool that you can use to clean your word document and convert them to plain text. This can be useful if you have text content that was written using Word and want to paste them directly to your blog, website or HTML-Document.

If you’re a blogger, then you may already have encountered or noticed the word to blog editor issue. This obviously will happen if you type your content using the Word document editor, copy, and paste on your blog editor. It may look normal at first glance but if you happen to check the HTML version of the pasted document, you’ll notice different code clutter that was included in the paste process. When you copy a text directly from word, hidden formatting codes also gets copied. The result is a nasty HTML code for your posts/pages.

WordPress has an option “Paste as Plain Text” which is ultimately useful when you do your writing using Word. If you are using other blogging platform that does not use the feature and want to have a nice clean HTML code for your posts, Word2Text can be utilized to clean-up the messy HTML code that Word produces and convert them into plain text format. Simply paste the document on the Word2Text input box and press convert. The result is a clutter free plain text version of your written content.

Convert Any Media Online

Media Convert is an online application that converts media formats from audio files, video, presentation, documents, spreadsheets, images and even archives.  You do not need to install and find a software or application (most are equipped with spyware and adware if you get them for free) for your system just to convert as specific type of media. Eee PC users might find this site very useful because of the limited storage capacity of the notebook.

The service is one hundred percent free, but comes with a file size limit of 150 MB. I know that it is not enough to convert your HD movie into avi but it does the trick for smaller video files and more importantly mp3′s to aac or wma. They even convert ring tones for cell phones.

MediaConvert can also be a handy tool for inter platform users of document editors. It will easily make your Open Office documents be readable by Microsoft Office. This is great if you are attaching documents through email to people who are not using your application. The service also have the ability to convert PDF to SWF Flash file for easy insertion to websites, export Microsoft Access to Excel Table, capture a website as an image and my personal favorite, convert  text into morse code.
