Mobile bookmarks with Mobilicio.us

by Victor Agreda, Jr. Mar 3rd 2006

Mobilicio.us is a mashup of Google Mobile and del.icio.us, and it's designed to "mobilize" your bookmarks. In other words, make it easier to view and search your URL's. Because viewing on a tiny screen, and typing on a tiny keyboard isn't so easy. Type in the Mobilicio.us URL, then sign in with your del.icio.us account. At this stage you can see your bookmarks, but what you really want are bookmarks tagged with mtag. These are the special links for mobile browsing. The point is to go through (preferrably on a PC, not your mobile device) your bookmarks and add this tag. When you sign in to Mobilicio.us, the mtag links will appear first (filtered if you like), thus speeding up your surfing. Mobilicio.us promises further expansion into other social bookmarking sites like furl and spurl, which is nice. How's this working for you mobile warriors?

Civiballs is a beautiful, soothing physics puzzle Time Waster

I have an absolute weakness for physics games, and while Civiballs isn't the strongest physics-based game, what it lacks in the physics department it makes up for a few times over in style and fun.

In Civiballs, you are presented with a few colored balls, and your goal is to get those balls into the same-colored urn on the level. The "civi" part of Civiballs is that there are 3 sets of levels to play, each representing a different civilization. While the civilization doesn't affect gameplay, the artwork for each level is beautifully themed to it's appropriate era.

To play the game, you are given only one tool - a sword with which to cut the chains that are holding the balls. The puzzle part of the game is in figuring out what order, and with what timing to cut each chain. Do it right, and all the right balls end up in the right urns, with no stray balls entering an urn (a no-no). Do it wrong, and you get to start over again.

Civiballs is not terribly deep on gameplay; the entire game can be completed in about 15 minutes. But if you enjoy this type of game, it will be a very enjoyable 15 minutes.
