“Everyone loves to get free stuff. Free After Rebate will point you to stores that sell products that end up being free after you send in for a rebate. Youíll have to pay for the item up front, then submit the rebate materials. Some time later (usually six to eight weeks) youíll receive a rebate check. We only list products with 100% rebates, but those rebates usually donít reimburse for shipping and sales tax.”

“Folklore.org is a web site devoted to collective historical storytelling. It captures and presents sets of related stories that describe interesting events from multiple perspectives, allowing groups of people to recount their shared history in the form of interlinked anecdotes. Folklore is still incomplete, and undergoing active development… Currently, the Folklore site only supports a single project, about the development of the original Macintosh, but that will be changing soon.”

“WordPress is a state-of-the-art semantic personal publishing platform with a focus on aesthetics, web standards, and usability… WordPress was born out of a desire for an elegant, well-architectured personal publishing system built on PHP and MySQL and licensed under the GPL. It is the official successor of b2/cafelog, as b2 development has stopped. We hope by focusing on web standards and user experience we can create a tool different from anything else out there.” FYI: We moved bBlog and xBlog over to Wordpress last month and have been very happy with the system!
