Multicolr Search Lab is a Flickr search tool with a twist. It uses colors rather than words to describe what you are looking for. Additional feature is that you can stack wanted colors so you can search for pictures that have multiple color attributes.
Give it a try...

Unlike Photosynth, OpenPhotoVR is a open source version of it. But unlike Photosynth that does the processing by computer here only the interface is copied and humans need to create links between pictures.
Making it nothing more than a "pseudo-3D photo browser in Flash, a free analog to Microsoft Photosynth."

If you love statistics as I do then this is the site for you. Swivel is a online community that posts data, there are some analysis but most of the site is composed of pure data.
Swivel lets you explore data and share your insights with others. Swivel has data about politics, economics, weather, sports, business and more.
You can view information in a graph form but the most satisfying feature is that you can download a CSV file (can be opened in Excel without any problems) and preform what ever action you want on it.
Currently, Swivel is in Public Preview mode which means that any data set you post on it is visible to everybody else.
The amount of data is surprising but the quality can be an issue as some data sets that you find interesting are not of sufficient depth. This will improve over time, and reminds me of Wikipedia but for data. A person can find all sorts of information on it and is a site worth of your visit.

I really like DIGG but one feature that could be better is link submission. Here comes in Meshly. Before, if I found some interesting link that I wanted to visit later I had to send the links back to my email and then bookmark it home. You might already have noticed that I don't use del.icio.us. I never found it, user friendly.

The most interesting feature of Meshly is how links are submitted. Meshly uses a novel approach with IM bot. By using your favorite IM like Google, AOL or MSN and adding a bots name to your contact list you have a direct line to the Meshly. First time you contact Mashly it will ask you to register and after that you just write "post" and follow the instructions for posting links.

That reminds me of my past time favorites, IRC bots. Some were smart some still are. It is interesting that no one utilized Google chat together with a Bot system before.

Meshly could be a start of a very interesting trend in IM.

From time to time everyone has a need to convert some file format to another one. This usually involves installing a bunch of converters. Some put watermarks; some have other restrictions as most are shareware.
Online converters are here to fill the gap. In this era of broadband using the online service to convert documents and video is not a big problem.
Personally, I like ZamZar. Its interface is slick and minimalist.
