I do not have any personal investment or ties with any of the following businesses.
<http://buylesscrap.org/> Says it all!! Zannel.com is up and running. <http://www.zannel.com/browse.jsp?tab=channel> This one I REALLY like. It is not only looks (I am on a mac so I must wait to try it) like a graphical representaion that is interactive but seems to be positioning for the 3D (or holographic) displays. From the video demo <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zgIT-hfgOXY&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Etwingly%2Ese%2FScreenSaver%2Easpx> it seems like there might be a way to load a video behind the global menu to show a video preview or the video (I am guessing here based on the blog post showing up on the right side of the screen) but even if the video loaded to the right as you brows it is really clever and much more interesting then the normal 2D blog map. Twingly <http://www.twingly.se/ScreenSaver.aspx> Twingly screensaver is visualizing the global blog activity in real time. Forget RSS readers where you see only what you're interested in. With Twingly screensaver you get a 24/7 stream of all (viewer discretion advised) blog activity, straight to your screen. More information about Primelabs can be found at primelabs.com I just started messing around with Google's API, and then I was torn with my Mac Dashboard widgets and this <http://eco.netvibes.com/uwa/> . Anyway came across this today from Adobe called "Appollo" <http://www.demo.com/demonstrators/demo2007/91259.php> So is anyone here working with API's and have advice as to potential? Dave
