Ninete – The Software Installation Dream Team

ninite Ninite – A new computer is always exciting, at least for me it is. But installing software on a new computer can be quite a hassle. After you get your operating system up and running, installing all of your favorite applications is a major drawback to enjoying your brand new computer. I usually install the same 10-15 applications and gathering the latest versions and installing them takes me a couple of hours.

But this past Saturday, I decided that I am not going to waste my sunny weekend on endless installations, and searched for an alternative. That’s when I came across Ninite. This amazing installation magician presents you with a comprehensive and sleek checklist of free applications you can choose form. After you check the ones you want, hit download and start the installation. Ninite will download the latest version of the app and will install it completely. The best part is that they automatically check off all the unwanted toolbars you usually get from those applications. Instead of hours, it took me just 5 minutes! Ninite did all the rest. It is so easy even my cat, Chupi, can do it. Give it a try the next time you are installing software on your PC (Windows 7, Vista or XP only at this point).

Whyzz – Do you really know the answers to all of your kids’ questions?

Whyzz – As a young boy growing up, I used to drive my parents crazy with all the questions I had: why this? why that?
In most cases my parents had the answers to my repeated inquiries, or at least they did their best to make me think they had it. For all those awkward moments when you are not sure about your kids’ questions, whyzz is here for the rescue.

Whyzz is the place where parents with curious young children can find and contribute to kid-ready information about how the world works! Questions range from Why don’t cats cry? to Why do my ears “pop” on an airplane?

Look and Taste – Watch, Cook and Savor

 Look and Taste – Unlike my brother Shachar, I am a really lousy cook. Whenever I come across a cooking site, I wish I could find the time or the energy to sit down and try out some of the recipes (practice makes perfect, doesn’t it?). Look and Taste (formerly iFoods.tv) is yet another cooking site, but it stands out from the rest. Not only do they give you the complete recipes for their mouth-watering dishes, they also show you how to do it, step by step.

Their fun and instructive video archive of over 300 entries (featuring professional savvy chefs) give you a complete cooking show right at your fingertips. Another cool feature Look and Taste offers which many other cooking sites lack is their glossary of over 400 relevant terms. Don’t forget to check out their show, which is just as enjoyable and motivating.

Viral Video Chart – Top 20 Viral Videos

 Viral Video Chart – Know how when you watch a great video online it immediately becomes obvious that you’ll send it to all your friends and family members right away? Viral Video Chart allows you to stay on top with the hottest videos currently buzzing online.

In addition to watching videos, you can find interesting statistical information about them. See when the video first became ‘hot’, how many mentions it got on the blogosphere and many more fascinating data. I can only hope YouTube will add a similar feature to their web site as well, because more often than not, I find the latter’s video recommendations irrelevant.
