Add comments to any web page instantly

by Jordan Running Dec 6th 2006

Ever want to toss up a web page for something and let people comment on it, but don't want to (or are unable to) mess with server-side scripts and the like? What if you could just paste a single snippet of HTML into your page's source and instantly have a live comment form appear? Well, today is your lucky day: JS-Kit is a free service that will add comment functionality to any page you paste it into. As you might have guessed from the name, it's a JavaScript solution that automatically fetches the comments for a page from the JS-Kit server when the page loads. Comments are threaded and are posted via Ajax without having to leave or reload the page. Commenters can also delete their own comments, and there are a few advanced options like having multiple comment blocks on the same page, changing the comment link text, and even changing their appearance altogether using a hidden template. For such an easy-to-use solution, JS-Kit is pretty powerful and robust, and if you don't have a better or easier alternative, it looks like it could be very handy. Oh, and did I mention that it's completely free and doesn't come with any nasty ads or even plugs?

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.
