SimplyHeadlines - an RSS newspaper in your email

by Jason Clarke Sep 20th 2006

If you've been feeling like you really should check out "this RSS thing", but haven't had the time or inclination to do so, maybe SimplyHeadlines will be the thing that turns you around. SimplyHeadlines sends you a once-a-day newspaper with headlines from the sources you want to read, taking their RSS feeds and building a very convincing newspaper document from them.

SimplyHeadlines also has a second mode, which is useful for mobile readers like Blackberries - this is a text-only version with no formatting at all.

Like most RSS services, they offer a few selected default feeds, or you can enter any RSS feed you like. For beginner RSS users, this could be a very useful service. For people with more than a hundred feeds to follow, not so much.

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.
