Random2.0
June 8th, 2007 by Chris KingAlmost daily I find myself meandering online repositories of “2.0″ish websites either to gain design inspiration or to reference the code for my own current web projects. Along the way I’ve come across some pretty interesting and random online applications. Here are a few of my recent finds:
This little application is designed to help you stop smoking by allowing you to create a widget that tracks how much money you save by quitting. It even generates the necessary code to embed the widget into your own site. Check it out ›
Imagini is another online community; however, they have taken an interesting approach to social networking — Images. I know, I know: Flickr has already done this, right? True. But the difference lies in how these images/photos are used. Through a process of selecting a series of photos based on your personal preferences, this application is able to create a personality profile, which they are branding as VisualDNA. I have to say, the profile it created for me was uncannily accurate. Once you have a profile, you can then connect to other users with similar VisualDNA. Take a look ›
I love these random uses and applications of all the latest web-based technologies.
