Inpowr can help you explore and discover, you

inpowr exploring and discovering youWith so many obstacles in your daily life, its sometimes hard to organize and plan every step. Inpowr wants to be there for you.

Inpowr is currently in beta mode, and attending the Web 2.0 conference this week in San Francisco. Their online platform is a location for self discovery, helping users plan every aspect of their lives. Goals can be set, and things that you want changed in your life can be noted, with other users supporting you if you so choose. The system takes into consideration the well being of users and measures progress made, so that goals can be met. After all is said and done, experiences can be shared so that others can learn from you.

Sounds like a pretty interesting online self discovery service, once we are on the beta look out for a full review to see if this is a service that does what it says it can.

Technorati relaunched with new design/features

Ahh, Technorati, what would we do without you. You are the reason we obsessively tag all our posts, and you dutifully respond to our pings in mere minutes (under 5 according to Technorati Principal Engineer Kevin Marks) to crawl our data. On today, your third birthday, you provide us with even more excitement, in the form of a spiffy re-design and some interesting new features. The new design is more modular than in its previous state, complete with standard issue Web 2.0 graded header bars decked out in desaturated colors.

Front and center (well, top right anyway) is the new "Discover" feature. Discover allows users to view the most active posts within set categories including life, entertainment, tech and business. Users can also Discover by specifying tags or groups of tags. Keep in mind that the Discover feature is still under construction, and thus features may come and go before they reach a stable plateau. The new Discover functionality is similar to the popular site Techmeme.

Other differences from previous versions of the site include changes to the way favorites are displayed. Favorites now give more weight to a users favorites as opposed to simply which posts are most popular in the blogosphere.

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, ...
