Send To Dropbox - Email files to your Dropbox!
Ever wish you could email files to your Dropbox? Yeah, me too. So I wrote an application to do just that! It's free, fast, secure and super simple too. All you have to do is connect with Dropbox, get your unique email address, and start sending files! After a few minutes they will automatically appear in your "Attachments" folder. We have some great features too, like automatic archive unzipping, folder organization, and plain text and html message copying, with more on the way! So what are you waiting for?

courteous.ly: publish your email load
courteous.ly: publish your email load
 In short, courteous.ly is a service for showing people your current email load. After you give courteous.ly access to your Gmail account, it periodically checks your email load. You can tell courteous.ly what it should monitor to measure it: the unread messages in your inbox, the total number of messages in your inbox or how much mail you've sent recently. When somebody clicks your courteous.ly link, they'll see that your current email load is either "light," "normal" or "high."

Home | Mute noisy Twitter friends (for a while) - Muuter.com
muuter will allow you to mute your friends on Twitter when they become too noisy for your taste. If you do it manually and unfollow the -temporarily- loud twitterers, you risk forgetting to follow them back again. Here's where muuter comes valiantly in your rescue: you define the twitter name and the time you want to mute 'em (or muute 'em?), we do the remembering part.

The Archivist is a service that uses the Twitter Search API to find and archive tweets. The Archivist does not have access to the Twitter "firehose" (ie., all the tweets ever on a subject). As such, the tweets archived by The Archivist are not guaranteed to represent a complete historical record of a given term or search. Read the FAQ to learn more about The Archivist. Visualizations are graphic representations of the data your archives. Visualizations generated by The Archivist may not represent a complete historical record. Use The Archivist to help you understand trends such as the number of Tweets over time, top users and words, sentiment, and more. Check out our handy visualizations page for more info or see what types of visualizations The Archivist creates below..

Fishing Cactus development blog » Blog Archive » Fishing Cactus presents R.O.G.E.R, the first Medical Kinect Serious game
Together with the support of the Microsoft Innovation Center and a cluster of 4 therapists, we have created a prototype Serious game dedicated to patients who suffer from a lack of logic and organizational skills (typically post-stroke patients, Alzheimer, hemi-negligent patients,…) We have been getting a lot of press and attention about this project since we are pretty much the only studio in Belgium and maybe Europe who master the technology to build this game, the reason is that we have used Kinect Technology, a controller less movement recognition camera. This allows our game to be piloted by any generation, and especially non digital natives who have never used a game controller or keyboard and mouse (very good indeed since most patients with those symptoms fall under this category).

Using "free" 2D and 3D graphics files, models, design + digital capture and construction tools In the Classroom
created by Leon Cych, this wiki is a result of having had the time to gather plenty of free resources on the web but not being able to share my expertise with others especially younger children. It will be ongoing for most of 2011. Most of what I do is involved with finding and using resources in education and business that will be commonplace in a couple of years but that are not mainstream at present. This is my own personal braindump of things I have found on the web over the years related to 3D modelling, design, virtual worlds and gaming.
