Tuesday the 16th of January – more links.

MyPunchBowl.com – Planning a party? This is a pretty slick site for creating your party plans and inviting people all with a very simple interface. Site integrates Google Maps as well as a comment posting section for party guests to alert you whether they’ll be attending or not. Now I have a reason to throw a party – so I can try this site out!

If your a geek like me, you’ve probably already seen everything that was at last weeks Consumer Electronic Show in Las Vegas. All of the big tech bloggers were on site, recording videos of some of the most amazing concept and newly released gadgets of 2007. CNET has just released the Best in Show Awards on their site. To see more of the CES – on a down to earth level, check out Jonathan Coulton’s (Code Monkey) blog for a few great videos of exciting new gadgets.

1-800Free411 - Away from a phone? Find all the free phone numbers you need right here. Has this website heard of Google?!! :)

TheFoundBin.com – Lose something? Check out this lost and found website using Google Map technology. I lost my bottle opener key chain somewhere between Monroe and Grand Rapids, wonder if I should post that.

Travel Gadgets! The cell phone projector is interesting – cell phones need to advance a little further first though.

FootNote.com – Access millions of original documents – most never seen on the web before.
I checked this out, some of the content is free, most you have to pay for. Some very rare stuff on here, I was browsing through old Civil War photos. Interesting.

Cell Start: Start your car from your cell phone. Of course, you need to install an automatic car starter, but after that you can send a message from anywhere to start your vehicle. No longer do you have to be in a specific range to remotely start your car. WOW.

    Here’s what I want:

    I want a little bar code reader that connects to the internet and gives me a readout of the prices for the same product in other stores and ebay. I can just take it in to the store and run the bar codes.

    Stores are designed to confuse. One day technology will even the playing field. Maybe.

    I totally agree. I think the big chain stores have monopolized on customers lack of technology for too long. With the internet and the way technology is advancing, people are finally paying correct prices for items.. but it could be better, and I’m sure will get there.
