Disclaimer, I haven't used the sites services yet. But, I really like the concept. You send out a design project to a bunch of graphics designers and specify the amount of money you're willing to spend on the project. Then, any designer who's willing to take on the project comes back to you with design proposals or drafts. You keep iterating with them until you end up with a logo, splashscreen, etc. that you like. In the end, you only have to pay the designer that created the winning design. Prices seems really reasonable, $200-$500 for a professional logo. Compared to what a "professional" design and brand management shops charge (thousands!), that's a great deal. Plus you get the benefit of picking the brains of multiple designers, without having to pay for the ones that you don't like.

Funny as hell...most of the time. Sometime hit or miss, but on average the laugh factor on this website is pretty high. Mostly crude humor, but there's some sophistication mixed in there as well. Not always safe for work, depending on where you work. You have been warned. Check this one out and you'll be hooked.

A great alternative to you typical RSS reader. Great visual layout, customization and ease of use. In addition to being able to add RSS feeds to your account, you can also add a number of Netvibes widgets. I just use the essentials (weather, twitter, etc.), kinda handy.

Still trying to figure out how it compares to iGoogle, so far there's no clear winner...
