LetterMeLater: Schedule emails (or blog posts) for later

LetterMeLater
We can think of plenty of reasons you might want to send a time-delayed email message. Perhaps you're sending an email to someone who usually has such a full inbox that you want to make sure they get it when they're sitting in front of their desk, not at 2am when you're writing the message. Or maybe you want to write a few happy birthday messages while you're looking at your calendar and schedule them to actually go out on the actual dates of your friends' and family members' birthdays.

But most web-based email services don't offer the option to schedule your email delivery. You click send, and it's gone. LetterMeLater is a handy email service that lets you schedule your emails any way you like. Best of all, it lets you use your usual email address. Your messages won't wind up in your Gmail, Yahoo!, or Hotmail sent messages folder, but your recipient will see your email address and be able to reply.

LetterMeLater also features a fairly powerful WYSIWYG HTML editor. That means in addition to sending emails with fancy formatting and embedded images, you can use LetterMeLater to write up blog posts if you use a blogging client that supports posting by email. Why does this matter? Say you use a service like Google's Blogger that doesn't let you schedule posts, but you're taking a week-long vacation and want to make sure there's still fresh content on your site every day. Just write up a few posts in LetterMeLater and mail them to yourself one at a time over the course of the week and nobody will know you're actually scuba diving.

The World's Hardest Game 2.0 - Time Waster

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do. Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game. The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
