BlueSwarm.org allows you to easily keep up with what your friends are doing all over the web.


BlueSwarm.org allows you to easily keep up with what your friends are doing all over the web.
If you're like most people you have user accounts for multiple services on the web. You might have a del.icio.us account to manage your bookmarks, a digg.com account to track your diggs and maybe a youtube.com account for all your videos. Wouldn't it be nice to have all of those content items in one convenient place? So when you want to share your web presence with your friends all you have to do is give them one place to look.

That's what we have attempted to create. BlueSwarm.org is your one stop site to gather all your different services in one place so you or your friends can get an idea of what you find intersting on the web, all in one place.

Since BlueSwarm.org pulls the information that you already have on all the other services you are already using it's a breeze to sign up. And then just keep doing what you've always been doing and as you digg, tag or upload using your favorite service, your BlueSwarm.org page will update automatically.

Google Answers to Make Return.

Google Answers, Google’s Q&A service that was killed off after being decisively beaten by Yahoo Answers (in terms of traffic, at least), has been relaunched in Russia. An entry on Google’s Russian blog says that Russia is the first to get the new service, leaving open the possibility that an English version could return. A rough Babelfish translation:

Today we start the beta version of “questions and answers”. This is the new service Google, where it is possible to pose complex question on the theme interesting for you and to obtain answer from other users, and still it is possible to earn marks, answering strange questions…We are especially glad to report that Russia - first in the world country, where we start this service; she is not thus far accessible even to English-language users….Answering different questions, you collect marks and you gradually become expert in one or other region or another.

Zimoz is a website that allows you to create Web2.0 style postcards and publish them as a blog, or send them by email. The idea is based on the concept that ‘everyone likes to get a postcard‘. Hence you can tell your story or discuss issues in a format, that is the electronic equivalent of postcards.

You can add images, videos, clipart et al to it and thereby add another dimension to that storytelling. Check out these postcard samples- they certainly do justice to the concept.

Protonotes are notes that you add to your prototype that allow project team members to discuss system functionality , design, and requirements directly on the prototype.

Discussion Board + Wiki * (Prototypes) = Protonotes
Protonotes is also a great tool for recording your findings in usability tests and heuristic reviews.

What's so great about Protonotes?

* Everyone on your team can easily add notes to your prototypes - helps the entire team collaborate quicker and easier.
* You don't need to install anything.

Anand Agarawala: BumpTop desktop is a beautiful mess.

Anand Agarawala presents BumpTop, a fresh user interface that takes the usual desktop metaphor to a glorious, 3D extreme. In this physics-driven universe, important files finally get the weight they deserve via an oddly satisfying resizing feature, and the drudgery of file organization becomes a freewheeling playground full of crumpled documents and clipping-covered "walls." Worried your laptop's desktop will descend into the same disorder as its coffee-mug-strewn real-life equivalent? Fear not: BumpTop has a snappy solution for that messy problem, too.
