Here´s a good one… NapSounds. Napsounds is a simple website that offers a selection of sleep-inducive sounds to help you relax and take a power nap. Choose “Electronic”, “Classical” or “Nature” to play a free 20 minute sound track for your nap.

There are lots of SEO tools out there but this one I actually like. It´s called Quarkbase and provides a quick and dirty snapshot of a website´s key information from various online data sources. Easy to use, nice interface, and great way to spy on other sites.

I’ve been traveling quite a bit these past several weeks and have had a chance to discover some pretty stellar startup projects and the people behind them. Here are a few that I especially like:
ChaCha – ChaCha is like having a smart friend you can call or text for answers on your cell phone anytime [...]
A while back I posted about a really badass online mixtape creator called Muxtape. Unfortunately, the site was quickly shut down by the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) which is not much of a surprise… although it’s a damn tragedy that a bunch of old farts wearing expensive suits still don’t get it.

As part of Pet Holding Inc.´s collection of comedy sites (icanhascheezburger.com, failblog.com, etc.) , engrishfunny.com is surely a quality addition… even though the concept is not far off from the originial engrish.com.
User Interface guru, Jakob Nielsen, just posted winners of the 2008 best-designed application user interfaces. There are definitely some good picks here but the irony is that Jakob, a well-respected industry expert and thought leader in UI, has one of the worst sites (in terms of usability, readability and user experience) I’ve seen. What [...]
