Sociagami: Desktop app for Facebook and MySpace users

by Brad Linder Feb 18th 2008

Tired of logging into Facebook and MySpace every day to find out which friend posted new photos, who wrote on your wall, or left you a message? Sociagami is a desktop application for Windows that will send you alerts whenever your friends update their profiles.

Sociagami offers a slick interface for browsing comments left on your MySpace or Facebok pages, approving friend requests, or responding to messages. You can also right-click on any friend to see their friends or photos. The Friend browser is pretty slick. You can click on any friend's photo to find more friends or look at their pictures. And you can zoom in and out or scroll around the screen to find more friends.

There are a few things that Sociagami doesn't do. For example, you can't update your Facebook status or see your friends' status updates. And you can't interact with Facebook applications. So if you're looking to play a game of Scrabulous, you're still going to have to login to your Facebook account.

Oh, and while Sociagami has half the features of social networking tool Digsby, it eats about twice the RAM. We found that Sociagami used up about 170MB of RAM after just a few minutes use.

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.
