StumbleUpon

I would like to introduce you all to StumbleUpon. This Mozilla or Internet Explorer add-on has introduced me to more cool and useful websites in the last three weeks than I have found in the last three years.

The application is simple, download the application, put in your interests and then start clicking. You’ll be so impressed you’ll bookmark just about everything that pops up. I have so many bookmarks that I need to figure out the best way to organize them. The system also keeps track of what you like and don’t like so that you can For each stumble you can decided whether or not you like that page and the application learns better your interests.

Stumble upon does have a few other features, such as adding your friends to see what they like, however I have not yet found this feature particularly useful.

Modern Girl's Guide

Just found a really fun link to a cute new organizational resource. The Style Network has a show: THe Modern Girl's Guide to Life. Based I'm assuming on the popular book series. I have not yet seen the show, but I will keep an eye out for it. The Website has some fun tips on it however: http://www.stylenetwork.com/ssms-site/style.do?actionId=1&showId=6129&navId=8bf9540d18564523a3e1bffa034d2&showFeatureId=7b8aec6d18564521978b9434c1d951&pageIdx=0.

Another cool show on the Style Network is Clean House. It helps pack rats and the hopelessly messy clean up truly atrocious clutter problems. The show is kind of slow in the middle when the hosts help the home owners sell their extra junk in a garage sale. (Which is an EXCELLENT idea for cleaning house and getting a little extra cash.) Seeing the end solutions to their unique problems is pretty helpful. The link is not at all helpful however, no real tips or solutions.
