Stress: You want to throw your computer out the window
Solution: download.com - utilize tools to "hit" your computer


Stress: It's dinnertime, and all you've got in your pantry is half a box of pasta, some peanut butter, a can of chicken stock, and an old red pepper
Solution: allrecipes.com - put a list of what you have in your cupboards and fridge and this site will find a recipe!


Stress: Counting Calories?
Solution: nutritiondata.com - here's the best place to go for the scoop on anything from a grapefruit (74 calories, 0g fat, 19 g carbs) to a Double Whopper with cheese (1,061 calories, 68 g fat, 54 g carbs).


Stress: In a strange city and need to get downtown
Solution: hopstop.com - ultimate guide to mass transit.


Stress: The last time you booked a hotel in an unfamiliar city, your 6 A.M. wake-up call was the sound of pounding jackhammers.
Solution: Maps Live - enter the hotel's address and the site will show you a map of the area and, even better, photos of what the surroundings would look like if you were standing right there.


Stress: That weekend in Aruba would do wonders for your stressed out family, but who's got time to surf for cheapseats?
Solution: SideStep - not so long ago, finding an inexpensive plane ticket meant hours of toggling between the big flight sites Expedia, Travelocity, and Orbitz. The arrival of travel "aggregators" - sites that compile fares from all three as well as additional listings from discount airlines like AirTran and JetBlue.


Stress: You're trying to make a Saturday dinner reservation, and every place but Chuck E. Cheese's is booked.
Solution: OpenTable - enter your area, the date and time, the preferred cuisine, and the number of guests and this site delivers available options from a database of 4,000 restaurants in 46 states.


Stress: Your nephew's birthday is tomorrow and he lives 200 miles away.
Solution: Surprise.com - to get the kid a gift that looks like you've thought about it for months, go to surprise.com. Its staff of innovative gift-finders combs through cyberspace retailers and cherry-picks the presents that best fit more than 300 spot-on personality traits. And its free! (except the cost of the gift!)


Stress: You're covered in baby spit-up, and you haven't read the paper in weeks. How are you going to hold a sparkling conversation at tonight's dinner party?
Solution: BBC - the fastest way to bone up on matters of global import. A great way to impress dining companions over the age of 2. Unlike American news sites, many of which have shrunk their coverage to leave more room for the latest on Paris Hilton's new boyfriend, the U.K.-based news site gives you entire sections devoted to each area of the globe.
