Be a Google slave

Well … it’s been a very long time since I last posted and today I will feature a attempt by Google to use metadata from users to improve their image search. The app pairs you up with another partner and both of you will throw keyword tags at the displayed photo. When both hits a match, you gain some points and move on. Check it out. But don’t waste your time being a slave to Google.

Joost - TV on demand

I just got my invite to test out this new software called Joost. The interface is very mediabox like and frankly, it’s just a video sharing site with a dash of bling. Similar to Veoh, Joost is still in beta (aren’t they all?).

If you need an invite, here’s a link. Enjoy and tell me what you think about it :)

Web 2.0 Links

  • MyStickies - Sticky notes for the whole web.
  • ZOHO - Online office tools and applications.
  • Jumpcut - Online video editing and sharing.
  • MeetWithApproval - Meeting, party planner.
  • Gliffy - Create and share diagrams online.

Can’t get that tune out of your head?

Have you had a tune stuck in your head but you can’t find out the title of the song? All you need to do is hum the tune and midomi tells you the song title. The website comes with a whole load of Web 2.0 features to help you discover more music and make new friends.

Neat ain’t it? Try it.

last.fm

I hate looking for new music. After testing Pandora, I must say Last.fm is much better in terms of functions and it’s social tags.

Discovering new music is now a snap for me.
