Pegby wants you to stop using those sticky notes that seem to be everywhere on and around your work desk, and instead use their cards and stacks to manage tasks. Their task management board is divided into mainly three columns - pending, in process and done (you can add more columns if you need them), and in each column you can add cards which are basically tasks and their descriptions. Different cards (tasks) can be combined together into a named stack, each card or stack can be dragged or dropped across columns. You can also invite people and jointly create and manage tasks. Each card can be customized in various ways. Its color can be changed, it can be tagged and much more. There's a way to filter your board too if you think it's full of clutter. Features: * Manage tasks through online cards and stacks. * Have family members use it along with you. * Add columns to the board, drag and drop cards. * Similar tools: Corkboard, Pindax and WallWisher.

What About Yelp? In today's internet-dominated world, online reviews have become an integral part of our decision-making process, whether it's choosing a restaurant, booking a hotel, or buying a product. Among the many platforms available, Yelp has emerged as a popular and influential website when it comes to sharing customer experiences and opinions. With millions of reviews covering various businesses, Yelp has amassed a considerable user base, making it a valuable resource for consumers and businesses alike. However, like any other platform, Yelp is not without its controversies and challenges. Over the years, several concerns have been raised regarding the legitimacy and reliability of Yelp reviews. This raises the question: What about Yelp? One significant concern is the authenticity of reviews on the platform. As Yelp's popularity grew, so did the temptation for businesses to manipulate their ratings by posting fake reviews or soliciting positive reviews from friends, family, or even paying for them. This unethical practice not only misleads consumers but also undermines the credibility and usefulness of Yelp as a reliable source of information. To address this issue, Yelp has implemented various measures to combat fake reviews. They use sophisticated algorithms and automated systems to filter out suspicious content, including reviews that may be biased, suspicious, or posted by the same IP address. Additionally, they encourage users to report fraudulent reviews and have a team of human moderators who manually review flagged content. Despite these efforts, it remains challenging to completely eliminate fake reviews, as some may still slip through the cracks. Another concern related to Yelp is the impact that negative reviews can have on businesses. While negative reviews can alert consumers to potential issues or problems, they can also harm a business's online reputation and ultimately affect their success. Some businesses have accused Yelp of ext

How it works In today's modern Internet, search engines have full control over the web, they can make sites be the center of attention or make them disappear altogether in a flash. A web site that is not referenced by Google, Yahoo or MSN is virtually nonexistent to the average user; it is also largely accepted that search engines cover only 20% of the World Wide Web today. In other words, search engine algorithms dictate which web sites are 'visible' and which web sites don't exist. There is nothing democratic about it, the search engines decide. Either you fit in the system, or you're out of the game. No matter how good your web site is, no matter how good users think your web site is, machines decide if it is a good match for you or not. It could be full of junk for all you know, as long as it follows the rules of page ranking and other criterias set by the algorithms. Like it or not, there is a dictatorship of information, no matter how good the intentions of these companies are, they have control over what you see. Who can better judge if a web site is a good match for your key words, if it's not you ? Aren't you the one who should judge if a web site is right for you? User driven Umibozu attempts to address this problem by providing users the means to vote for web sites that they find interesting or useful, bringing more democracy to the web 2.0. In order to start off the process though, Umibozu brings together all the results of the major search engines in one place, then lets the user refine the results. After all, machines also have the right to vote. Meta search engine Say you're looking for the best pizza place in town, you should not take for granted whatever your good friend tells you, it's always best to have several recommendations, no matter how much you trust this friend. Also, your taste and preferences are an important factor in your choice for a good pizza, and should be taken into account when looking for a good place to eat. This is why Um

 We all have questions that are very hard to be asked directly and in many cases we are afraid that by asking a question we can get ourselves in a strange, uncomfortable or embarrassing situation and therefore we avoid asking them.In other cases we would like to surprise someone and if we could ask for a clue in an anonymous way, it would help us in preparing the perfect surprise. GoaQoo is a free and simple application that allows users to ask anonymous questions from their friends. The identity of the person asking the question is fully protected, only the short description or nickname that is provided at the "Sender" item is disclosed to the Recipient. The e-mail of the sender is kept fully confidential and it is used only for notification purposes. All the questions are confidential, only the sender and the recipients have access to it. They can be opened on a special, password protected webpage and the links and access codes are sent in private e-mails. No other person can open the questions and answers besides you and your friend. To help to build up a conversation, the recipient of a question has the possibility to ask a question in return from the Sender but this is also done without revealing the identity of the Sender!

Musicmap attempts to provide the ultimate genealogy of popular music genres, including their relations and history. It is the result of more than seven years of research with over 200 listed sources and cross examination of many other visual genealogies. Its aim is to focus on the delicate balance between comprehensibility, accuracy and accessibility. In other words: the ideal genealogy is not only complete and correct, but also easy to understand despite its complexity. This is a utopian balance that can never be achieved but only approached. By choosing the right amount of genres, determining forms of hierarchy and analogy and ordering everything in a logical but authentic manner, a satisfactory balance can be obtained. Said balance is always the main subject of discussion in music genre genealogies and the capital reason why an absolute visual reference has been absent thus far (and probably always will be). Musicmap is a platform in search for the perfect balance of popular music genres to provide a powerful tool for educational means or a complementary framework in the field of music metadata and automatic taxonomy.

provides immediate access to facts. It visualizes facts as well as relationships between facts. You can also collect, process and publish bits of information. Currently processes the English and German Wikipedia as well as MEDLINE/PubMed. \n\nOur approach is inspired by current research results from cognitive science, computational linguistics and neurobiology. We aim at radically improving the way users interact with knowledge and information online. Recent studies show that human thought processes have a strong visual component and that the brain can process images significantly faster than textual information. We are convinced that it is time for innovative, interactive, visual methods of working with and discovering facts and information instead of wading through ever longer lists of documents and search results. \n
