kidding! there’s no elgoog in this post, just thought the title would trick the clickers…and wow, haven’t written in a while, been busy with something else but thought it would be nice to do a quick roundup of some assorted tools that i’ve been dicking around with…generally speaking, most of what’s on the interweb either a) sucks, 2) has been done before or c) is crap (similar to sucking, being crap is also distinguished by a tendency toward browser compatibility issues)…enjoy…

myIPneighbors - got a site on a shared server and wondering why it’s soooo fucking slow all of the time when all you’re running is brochureware? hit this site and you may soon find a new person to send hate mail to!

call it fake - remember when i was talking a while ago about the stygian state of caller id spoofing? well say hello to the free pc-2-phone version…

fichey, whacked search thing.. - not sure what to say, but what the shit? is microfiche back!? have we all gone full circle on the interweb?

senduit - very cool, share files just like a buncha other services, but with very short expiration dates (as in, “dude, go download the song quickly, it expires in 30 minutes”)

50matches: search delicious, digg and reddit at the same time… a social bookmarking meta-search tool for the only sites that appear to matter anymore (sorry to those others who couldn’t keep it fresh, “yo, keep it real…worrrdddd”)

getgrandpasFBIfiles - concerned that you didn’t get that job because of your family history and not just because you suck at what you do? then consider following this dude’s cookbook approach to digging up family fbi files…

phone number geolocator - wondering where that call came from? hit this site, you’ll like it, trust me…

big list of best css design galleries - um, have you ever, uh, maybe, uh, ripped some other dude’s site design ’cause it was so cool? like sucked the whole thing down, pulled out the css in an editor and made it your own? this list will lead to you some awesome new site design ideas…got some favorites on this list, but there’s a lot to look over…

zniff, just iceland - yeah, here’s a nice search engine…might not matter much unless you are hjalli, and you launched this ages ago as a sister site to spurl…but i like it! just gotta find mo’ reason to use it…

and lastly: things you never knew existed - gotta keep my boys off this site, there is just too much cool shit for sale…what a way to waste a day or two…
