Cool graphics create traffic...

This is yet another proof of the old saying "if you can make something look cool, it'll bring traffic to your site". This is a visualization of live data from a site named Scouta.com. I haven't visited the site, but I think it's a social network in Australia.

Though this has been done many times, people can't help but watching such videos. I for example found it over at most viewed on Viddler.com. So if you want to create traffic and to make your site a bit more well known, a pretty graph or a nice video of some data is a safe bet.

BumpTop 3d - Ok, this is cool and it's the future

I don't like lists. I don't like my desktop background (~200 pdf-files that I don't want to organize). So what do I like? BumpTop 3d! A cool 3d-interface for documents that utilises physics in order to get a good interface. It sounds pretty weird, but watch this video, it looks amazing and really easy to do things with your files. I only miss the file-preview, but I guess that'll come later.

I think BumpTop is a lot more interesting than the Microsoft Surface thingy, since that technology didn't have anything that surpriced me.
