I don’t actually play Blogshares like some people do, but I check out how my blogs are doing from time to time and check how some other blogs I read are doing. I admit, I don’t totally understand the blog stock market. I checked on Candy Addict on Blogshares the other day and its valuation had past 100,000 B$! Cool. Also, outgoing links from Candy Addict are now worth 25K B$ (that’s the maximum) it’s the same as an outgoing link from BoingBoing! Again, not sure what it all means but I thought it was cool.

UPDATE: The stock value has come crashing down and it’s only worth just under 40K now, though the stock price (B$8,276.74) and outgoing link value (B$19,597.80) is still pretty high.

I was poking around today and found this list of del.icio.us pioneers. It shows who first links to pages that make the popular list. i.e. “Who keeps posting the most popular links?”. Oddly enough, *I* am on the list with three posts! Weird. Who knew?

Here is another cool image generator found at The Generator Blog – this time it’s the Einstenin Chalkboard Generator. Be sure and browse through the saved images that other people have done – some of them are pretty funny.

Check out the demo at Bindows.net. It’s really impressive – it’s a complete “application” done in AJAX. It looks and feels almost exactly like a real Windows application. Give it a look.

Here are a couple of handy sites for use with online calendars like AirSet and CalendarHub:
iCalShare
Eventful

Eventful is really cool – do a search for the town/city you live in and you get a list of events coming up in your area. Concerts, theatre events, sporting events, etc. Then, you can add that data to your CalendarHub or AirSet calendar so anytime you want to see what’s going on, you just look in your calendar.
