LinkBlip: Get email notifications when someone clicks a link

LinkBlip
You spend the day scouring the web for funny, interesting, and gross articles to send to your friends, family, and colleagues. But is it really worth it? Do they even click the links you email them? LinkBlip provides an easy way to find out.

All you have to do is enter your email address and the URL you want people to click on. LinkBlip will spit out a TinyURL-style shortened link that you can share with anyone. When they click on the link, you'll receive an email. You also get a link to a site that will let you know how many times people have clicked on your link. In theory, you can also see the geographic location of those who click on your links, but we found that the results weren't particularly accurate.

Civiballs is a beautiful, soothing physics puzzle Time Waster

CiviballsI 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.
