Penzu – Write in Private: Free Online Diary and Personal Journal
Now here’s a switch… Penzu is an online blog-type service — that you can keep private! All the other blogs in the world are out there so you can share your thoughts, but Penzu lets you create a private journal for your eyes only, though you can choose to share with others.
I’m not sure what type of business application this might have, but I love the notebook-paper graphics. PC Magazine gave it props for being some of the best free software of 2009.

Favicon.ico Generator: Make those little graphics for web pages
Favicons are those tiny graphics in the tabs when you open a webpage. If you don’t have one for your site, you’ll get a little blank page graphic, and that’s no longer the cool thing to do.
Favicon.ico Generator will help you generate the tiny 16×16 pixel graphic — upload a graphic or paint your own.
Eyercize: Free speed reading course
Not sure if this qualifies as a typical Cheapskate Freelancer post, but it is a tool, and it is free.
Paste text into this site to measure how fast you read and to improve your reading speed. You can modify how it clumps words, how many lines it shows at once and other little settings that help you work on your reading speed.
Worth a few minutes to determine how many words you read per minute, at least.
