8tracks – Creating and Sharing Playlists

8tracks – Playlists galore, this not-so-new web radio site has slowly and rather stealthy grew to capture many users’ and our attention. Completely free and easy to use, 8tracks invites users to create playlists listing at least eight tracks, share these with others and follow other users’ profiles and tastes. According to their About page, 8tracks “offers a simple way for people to share and discover music through an online mix, a short playlist…”

Even if you’re not dead set on creating your own playlist, I encourage you to sign up and try it nonetheless. The music quality is superb, and you can filter your search by clicking one of the various genre buttons on the homepage. In addition, you can simply sit back and enjoy other users’ playlists. That’s how I came across the blues playlist of eight tracks, all dedicated to the best drink that goes along with blues: whiskey.

Food on the Table – Stress-free Meals for Busy Families

Food on the Table – Unique in every possible way, this practical site’s concept “was born out of a need to get organized with menu planning, to create easy prep meals that everyone enjoyed and to save time and money at the grocery store.”

So, how does Food on the Table work, exactly? After you sign up (the basic plan is free, upgraded plans are available), submit your zip code and locate the various supermarkets in your area, and choose your top three. Next, set your taste preferences and food categories you are interested in. Then, click on Meal Plan and see which items are on sale based on your supermarket and food items settings. All you need to do next is buy the items and cook up a meal that’s within your budget and suited to your taste buds and nutrition plan.

ooVoo – Online Communication Taken to a New Level

ooVoo – Video chat is all but new. Google does it, so does Skype; MSN offers it as part of their Messenger service, and online video conferencing is also provided by Rounds. And this is just a quick list. ooVoo tries to be different, and in fact, based on a recent study commissioned by ooVoo, 8 out of 10 Skype users apparently prefer ooVoo over the former.

Let’s see how it measures up to or, if it really exceeds Skype as ooVoo claims. In terms of features, ooVoo offers video chat, video conferencing, phone calls and desktop sharing (that’s right). Right off the bat, desktop sharing is a crucial business tool I can definitely see coming into high use. Secondly, the ooVoo video chat is possible with friends and colleagues who don’t have ooVoo installed. You simply provide them with a certain link you receive from ooVoo after you sign up, and your friends’ browser will use that link to get in visual touch.

So, final verdict? ooVoo is easy to use, the sound and visual quality is terrific (which reminds me of those countless times when Skype lacked sound and video quality), and the video chat feature is free. I’m going to switch from Skype and give ooVoo a real test drive. Seems worth it!

The complete list of all ooVoo’s features is right there on their homepage. You should also check out their business solutions overview. See the screen shot below of my ooVoo profile, offering the video chat link for friends ooVoo-less. That’s ingenious!

Notes from the Stall – Deep Philosophy or Sheer Boredom?

Notes from the stall – This site scored the Weekly Blog crown during its week, so we included it in last week’s Weekly Faves. Notes from the stall is described as “the best in bathroom graffiti, tile lines and toilet verse. Always lemony fresh and never crude.”

Reading the declarations, statements and questions here on this blog will make some of you think we’re dealing with intense philosophical truths while others would call it rubbish. Either way it’s interesting, funny and sometimes poignantly sad. The masses have spoken and now the walls (stalls to be exact) are responding… Enjoy.

The Curfew – Play Your Way to Change

The Curfew – This super fun web-game project created by Littleloud, published by the UK Channel 4 and written by acclaimed comic book author, Kieron Gillen, is a must stop. What is it, exactly? The Curfew website explains it best: “Set in 2027 [Britain] in the heart of an authoritarian security state, The Curfew could be described as a miniature Canterbury Tales set in a not-so-distant future, where citizens must abide by government security measures and ‘sub citizens’ are placed under curfew at night.”

You will need to work your way in this virtual world and interact with the characters you’ll meet to learn who you can trust and who you can’t, and weather you can make a difference or be part of the herd while others make that change for you. This is exciting, intriguing and beautifully done. What an excellent project!
