HYPERiGO: Speed dial for the web
Overall, it reminds us of the speed dial feature in the Opera web browser. But HYPERiGO isn't confined to a single web browser. You can access the site from any browser using any operating system.
When you first visit the site, you can view a demo version with a bunch of preselected bookmarks in categories like tech, online, email, news, and music. If you sign up for an account you can select your own sites for each category.
Our only complaint is that the site is a little sluggish. That's true when it comes to adding new bookmarks, or general site navigation. Hopefully this is something the developers will address soon because we love the idea, but it's a bit painful to use at the moment.

I don't know if this is a labor of love or merely the brainchild of four very gifted games designers, but Level Up is a really weird mash-up of gaming elements that you have probably never seen in a Flash game before.
Let's start with the premise itself: Groundhog Day meets Memento. The game experience revolves around 'days': you explore the world and the clock slowly ticks towards the evening.

While some may prefer drag-and-drop and other "cool" functionalities, I would opt for a simpler, straightforward and easy-to-use websites. Web 2.0 or otherwise, it doesn't really matter to me, as long as the site faithfully deliver what it meant to do. Web 2.0 features neither matter to me nor it fascinate me. I did not really expect much from this "hyper" site and neither its features stand to its name. There's no "hyper" features but pretty plain features which any idiot, oops i mean non-IT savvy can use in just a couple of minutes. It's pretty useful, so I guess I'll stick to this site. Oh, by the way, I did not give 5 stars 'cos I think there's room for improvement for Hyperigo, not that it's not serving its purpose ;)
