Remember Comic Sans? It’s back

This is pretty hilarious. The GeoCitiesizer will transform any site into what it may have looked like with Geocities technology.

Here’s the New York Times (it includes dancing baby animated GIFs to make the news POP!):

I’m going to try and break the internet by GeoCitiesizer’ing a site that already looks like a GeoCities built site.


Etacts keeps your email under control

As someone with over 200 unread emails in her work email inbox (what’s that sound? oh it’s a GTD person fainting), Etacts is something I could definitely use.

Basically, Etacts works to remind you that you haven’t responded to emails. I applied it to my gmail account just now and immediately saw I haven’t emailed someone in over a year. I’m a horrible, horrible person.  So horrible that I chose to update this blog rather than email back. What’s another day? (Horrible!)

Etacts’ concept sounds simple enough, but if you’re a multitasker who continually feels the inbox is out of control, this could be a handy tool. If you’re a GTD follower or someone who likes passive aggressive email topics, this site will also remind you of who hasn’t responded to YOUR emails (i.e. I’ve been waiting for a response to my email for 23 days!). There’s also a good looking plug in for your gmail account that appears to work a lot like xobni.

It’s definitely a project that has potential to grow – hopefully into Microsoft Office Outlook so I can use it at work. Yes, it’s all about me, me, me.

LikeButton.me is perfect for Content Analysis Nerds (like me)

This might be the most useful website to come out of the Facebook “like” project: LikeButton.me amalgamates the top “liked” content from popular websites to give you a one-page overview of online content people want to share.

But if you really want to take it step further, you can enter your own website, and that of your competitors, to see top liked content.

If you’re into content analysis, this is pretty awesome.
