Yahoo! Subscription Search

Yahoo! Search

Yahoo began testing a service late Wednesday that allows people to perform simultaneous searches for information contained within subscription-based Web sites.



While most search engines crawl the Web and troll freely accessible sites, they cannot get into much of the so-called deep Web, vast amounts of data stored within paid and password-protected sites. Yahoo Search Subscriptions will allow search access to seven different subscription Web sites simultaneously, including the Financial Times and The Wall Street Journal Online.



The other subscription sites Yahoo users will be able to get access to are ConsumerReports.org, TheStreet.com, The New England Journal of Medicine, Forrester Research, and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. LexisNexis, Factiva and the Association of Computing Machinery subscription Web sites are expected to be added in coming weeks.

Freecycle: Spring, TX

This is my town's, but there are many listed for the entire U.S.



"The Freecycle Network is made up of many individual groups across the globe. It's a grassroots movement of people who are giving and getting stuff for free in their own towns. Each local group is run by a local volunteer moderator. Membership is free. For more information visit Freecycle.org.



One rule: everything posted must be FREE. Whether it's a chair, a fax machine, piano, or an old door to be given away, it can be posted on the network. Or, maybe you're looking to acquire something yourself? Respond to the posting directly and you just might get it. After that it is up to the giver to set up a pickup time for passing on the treasure."

Pac Manhattan

Pac-Manhattan is a large-scale urban game that utilizes the New York City grid to recreate the 1980's video game sensation Pac-Man. This analog version of Pac-man is being developed in NYU's Interactive Telecommunications graduate program, in order to explore what happens when games are removed from their "little world" of tabletops, televisions and computers and placed in the larger "real world" of street corners, and cities.



It's not new-news, but too good not to post!

PeanutButterWiki

Another techno-toy that's SO cool, but I have no idea how I'll use it. This little site allows you to create your own wiki, in literal seconds, using TipiWiki technologies. I made one for my work, but don't yet know what to do with it. Several drawbacks are apparent, but may yet be fixed. You can't change your password from the assigned one; you must know some html to make your wording look good; your wiki is invitation-only; and worst of all, you have to have content. Check it out - get WikiSticky!

Excellent! The top song in the UK on my birthday was Tainted Love by The Soft Cell.
