cl1p is another innovative website. For a long time, i have been looking for something like this. Its basically a clip board which works between computers. Recently i suffered a lot due to the absence of something like this. You nees not register or do anything. Enter a URL that starts with http://cl1p.net. for eg, http://cl1p.net/templora/. You can enter your content and save it there.

This site will be really helpful under many circumstances. For eg, when 2 or more developers are working on a project from around the world. They can transfer code between them easily as they cannot do it with IMs. And they can do it without having to use email.

As i have pasted on my cl1p, kudos to the developer. This is what i’d call innovative.

Feng-GUI is a very interesting site, that i spent a lot of time on it. It is a Heatmap service. but unlike others, Feng-GUI does not use anything like Mouse movement, click tracking, server logs, eye-tracking technology etc.. The ViewFinder algorithm creates a Saliency attention heatmap. They say :

The ViewFinder Heatmap service, is an artificial intelligence service which simulates human visual attention and creates an attention heatmap.

What can you find with ViewFinder heatmap ?

• Which areas of the page/image gets most of the attention?
• Which areas are being ignored?
• Hotspots – Highest points of attention.

It is purely based on the colors of a site. It might not be an useful site for many. But its really interesting. Here are a few heatmaps :

ForumLoose is a brand new forums search engine. It is being run by ForumDrop, a company that provided “free” vBulleting hosting sometime ago that led to a lot of controversial talks. ForumLoose’s site is pretty straight forward with a simple interface and they do not have any confusing content over there.

They have a cool AJAX suggestions script that ofers suggestions as you type. This is pretty similar to what google has here :

The even have a simple toolbar, which is provided by Conduit. It works with both Firefox and IE.

When i look at the site from a developer point of view, i think it is not a complete search engine on its own. It uses some SE script (most probably sphider), restricting itself only to the forums.

To conclude, ForumLoose is a nice startup, but it has a long way to go. And there is already a big competitor – BoardTracker.

Pagerank 10 webpages are really hard to find. In fact, Yahoo, Microsoft and Google are the only PR10 pages that i know. Today, i found a new website with its main objective as hitting the pagerank of 10.

They say :

Linking to this website will increase its page rank. The top referers are displayed below
which will get your website visitors and also increase your own page rank and traffic.

My goal is to go from PR0 to PR10 within 730 days starting from 20th April 2006

They even have a countdown timer on the site. There are 337 more days to go from today. There also seems to be a lot of ads on the site. But, why would anyone link to this site. They have a reason. It like a contest.

When PageRank10.co.uk gets a GOOGLE PAGE RANK of 10 (pr10) the overall top referrer gets this domain and website for FREE!

I doubt it very much. I don’t know how far they’ll be truthful. But if i obtain any PR10 page, i wouldn’t give it away to anyone for anything.

They would be having a different idea. They know for sure that the site will not hit PR10 and their promise is that they will give it away for free only if it hits PR10. So they can easily make a lot of money by selling links on the page, when the site gets a PR or 8 or 9. Thats one nice idea to make money.

Truemors, as the name suggests is a true rumors website. It has been built on the lines of Digg.com. It doesn’t need you to register on the site to post rumors. You can post them on the walk. you can also post a rumor by sending a message to an email address. You can also call up a number and leave a message. Also you can send a text message to 55022 for posting a rumor.

They have no means to prevent something from being posted. And there is no moderation too. So its a celebration for spammers. Check out the rumor that i posted few minutes ago.

The man behind this awesome(?) project is Guy Kawasaki. Thats the only reason many blogs like TechCrunch are writing about it. Guy is losing his name through this project.

Let these be on one side. On the other hand, most of the times, the site doesn’t load for me. Even if it does, it takes too long to load. I get weird errors on the site too. Once i got a “WordPress” error. Check it out below :

So, it definitely right to say that this site is a 99% failure.
