ScribbleLive: Liveblogging doesn't get much easier

ScribbleLive

ScribbleLive is a new liveblogging platform that's incredibly easy to use. You can create a blog and start updating it within seconds. That's because you don't even need to sign up for an account. you can login using OpenID or your Facebook or Windows Live login. On the other had, we didn't see a way to use the site if you're not already signed up with one of those three services, so you might need to register an OpenID URL, which could take a few minutes.

Once your up and running all you have to do to liveblog an event like a political speech, TV show, or concert. hit the save post button and your readers will be able to see your latest post. You can sort entries so they display from oldest to newest or vice versa. And you can invite others to contribute to the blog with you by sharing a URL.

The only problem with the service is there's no way to embed a liveblog on your own site or to set up a custom domain. But according to TechCrunch, an embeddable widget is coming soon. And when that happens, ScribbleLive could give CoverItLive, a service we've used in the past, a run for its money.

Build the highest tower with 99 Bricks - Time Waster

Wrapping your mind around a simple game like 99 Bricks is harder than you might imagine. The object of the game is to build the highest possible tower using only 99 pieces. Sounds easy enough, but you're playing with Tetris pieces and distinctly non-Tetris physics. If you screw up, you don't just leave gaps that you could have used to score points, you cause your whole tower to wobble and collapse.

Pieces also don't lock to a grid in 99 Bricks, the way they do in Tetris. You can wind up with pieces slanted diagonally, and there's an edge of the board that your toppled bricks can fall off of. 99 Bricks is kind of like Jenga, in that it's almost as satisfying to watch your tower crumble as it is to play seriously. Once you get the hang of the way the pieces behave, it's an addictive little game.
