Some Stuff I Found Today

December 21st, 2005

From various sources…(forgot to mark which ones - sorry). Note: I haven’t tested out any of these.

+ Coastr - “Coastr is an experiment in social networking for beer snobs (meant as a compliment, of course!). The basic idea is for you to create a list of your favorite beers, and to connect you with other people with similar tastes. And those connections will help you discover interesting new brews that you might have not known about before. “Social beermarking”, if you will.” (See also: Extratasty)

+ ZeeMaps - “Would you like to see an interactive world map locating your customers, friends, classmates, office branches, service locations, places you have visited, visitors to your web site or blog, or members of your email lists?
