Well if there wasn’t much incentive to move onto the Facebook Timeline before, you may well have found a good reason to now… Facebook’s Timeline Movie Maker is a cool app that takes photos, posts and videos from your Timeline, and turns it into a cool little movie, all about you.

CoverCanvas Facebook Timeline Cover Creator – Ah Facebook, how we love you, and your endless stream of service changes (or not…). And ah how we love your latest big change: the Timeline (or not…). Now we can all share the story of our lives with relative strangers over the internet, with a nice big cover picture to go at the top. Now most of our previous profile pictures just don’t have enough beauty to be a big glossy photo cover for our timelines, and that’s where Cover Canvas steps in… and does a really great job!

Find video that interests you, and you alone!

Frequency – There’s just so much interesting video content floating around the internet on any given moment, on any given day. And that means it’s really easy to miss a heck of a lot of good stuff! Stuff that gets posted on Facebook or Twitter by your friends or people you follow; stuff that gets posted on news websites (of which there are far too many to browse through in one go…); or just random, funny videos that get posted by random, funny people on Youtube.

And that’s where Frequency comes to the rescue.

Rately – Online shopping. In so many ways the best thing to ever happen to average Joe Couch Potato. No longer did he have to waste valuable energy browsing around endless endless shops with a friend in the nearest mall looking for that perfect pair of trainers. Now he could simply switch on his laptop, get onto Amazon and buy those same trainers without ever leaving his easychair. There is however one downside to all this convenience: it’s quite lonely! And what happens when you can’t decide whether you want your Ugg Boots in camel, beige or wood brown? Your friends aren’t standing next to you in the shop, helping you make these important decisions.

Color – The makers of this cool little iPhone and Android app are heralding what they call the new type of Facebook status update. And they’re right, it is new. And it really is cool!

Picking up on Foursquare’s idea of “gamifying” life, by giving you rankings, badges and prizes when you check into places you like to visit, Onefeat takes this one step further, into the world of Photo Sharing.

If the Americans among you haven’t already noticed, I’ll let you know now. There’s an election coming up in 2012. A big one. The problem is, you’ve not got much of a choice when it comes to voting for your next President. It’s Democrat or Republican, Good vs. Evil (whichever way you look at it!). There’s no in betweens when it comes to policy, no grey areas. And that’s quite annoying according to the politically minded creators of Ruck.Us.

Ruck.us believes that politics is far more people and issue based, and not simply about the one’s the Big Parties tell you to follow. That maybe it’s possible to believe that being fiscally conservative DOESN’T mean public healthcare’s a bad thing. It’s a clever idea, and it’s the idea forming the basis of their site. You answer questions about your political positions and most important issues, and form a network of people with similar “Political DNA” as you. And then take action together, getting recommendations on petitions, candidates, causes and more. Click here to get started!
