Embed documents or images on any web site with Embedit.in

by Brad Linder Dec 26th 2008

Embedit.in provides a drop dead simple way to embed documents or images on a web site. Just upload a Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or PDF document or an image file and click the embed it button.

You'll need to login to the site before getting your embed code, but you can login using your Google, Yahoo!, AOL, or OpenID information.

The service creates a Flash widget that visitors to your web page can use to view the image or read the document. You can resize the images or click the button in the bottom right corner to view them in full screen. I've embedded a blank tax document after the jump in case you want to see what the widget looks like in action.

Embedit.in is far from the only service that lets you upload documents and embed them on web sites. But it's certainly one of the simples to 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.
