Bing.com - A New Search Engine Arrives

Presented by Microsoft, Bing is a new search alternative that has just surfaced as an open beta to the general public. It comes hot on the heels of Wolfram Alpha, another project that while not exactly a “search engine” itself was regarded and discussed as that by many.

Bing, on the other hand, is a true search engine. It lets you crawl the web and look for images, videos, news and maps on the spot. A query produces results arranged topically – if you look up “Dune” you will have access to information appertaining the movie, Wikipedia articles, links to online retailers wher...  read more

TwitHive.com - A New Twitter Web Client

TwitHive is a new Twitter client. It has two features that give it some oomph. To begin with it is completely browser-hosted, effectively letting you tweet from anywhere an Internet connection is available. In second place, you can sign in using OAuth so that you do not have to disclose your particulars to any third party. I know quite a handful of people that are always a bit gunshy to disclose information of that kind, so that is always a spot-on feature.

When it comes to the actual operative of the client, it gives you the option to create multiple channels so as to monitor Twitter...  read more

Moogo.com - Create A Free Website

Tools like this one and Sauropol are quite amazing to me because of the flexibility and power they have. In general terms, they allow anybody to have a website of its own – without having the slightest understanding of any programming language at all.

If you want to give it a try all you have to do is sign up, choose a layout and then pick a web address for your site to be hosted. This URL is made up of a prefix of your choice and “moogo.com” at the end.

The website that is thus created can be used for seven days. When that period ends, the site closes down unless the u...  read more

FillUs.in - Microblog The Other Way Around

Microblogging is a sort of El Dorado to many – it is entirely made out of gold and they all want to get in, yet they can not find a point of entry no matter how hard they try.

Its loyal user base alone takes care of adding functionalities at every step of the way, and its growth has been exponential. That will not prevent others from trying and coming up with micro-blogging services with a difference or a sort of a twist at the very least.

That is the exact case as far as this ...  read more

ReFollow.com - Who To Follow On Twitter

To many, Twitter is the darling of the social scene. It is difficult not to mention the word “social” and end the sentence without mentioning the word “Twitter” at some point. The service is strengthened by a powerful API that lets the online community exert itself and put Twitter to the most diverse uses one can imagine. Some Twitter-based sites and apps play out novelty uses (like the Twitter page that lets you follow dead celebrities), and there are others that let you have a smoother all-around tweeting experience.
