QuickDiff
QuickDiff is a wrapper around the popular diff tool on Linux, designed to make viewing the changes between 2 blocks of texts more easy. This allows you to see the difference in text, lists, mails, and config files. It will graphically show you the differences between the 2 textareas by highlighting those areas that have changed. You can then generate a unique URL to share the results with anyone.

TortoiseMerge
Version control is all about having the history of your working progress. But to really see and check the history, you must be able to see and check what has changed between two points in time, for example, what has changed between two releases of your product, or what was changed to fix a bug, etc. This is where TortoiseMerge helps. It is a diff/merge software tool for Windows with a tight integration for TortoiseSVN. At least for files that consist of text, TortoiseMerge can help you here. It shows you the two versions of a file side-by-side, coloring every modified line in that file. When you reformat your code or text, sometimes you don't really change anything but only split a long line into multiple ones, or you merge multiple lines into one. TortoiseMerge marks such changes with a white circle on the left gray bar of each view. If you see such a white circle, you know that no real changes were made, only changes in whitespaces.
