How to find your favorite song

Songza is the place to look for any video clip or song you want to hear.

Its search engine enables you to look for a name of a song, of an artist or even a partial line within the song.

Once you found the songs you are looking for, you can watch their video, listen to them, buy them, share them, rate them or add them to your playlist - basically anything you'de want to do with a song...

One nice feature that makes this site stronger than searching in youtube is the ability to search while listening to the last song you've found.

As this is a music related post, I couldn't end it without a song or two from Genesis.

This is one of my favorites - the second part of Home By The Sea from the "Genesis" album in 1983.

Another great song is Firth of Fifth from their 1973 album - Selling England by the Pound:

Enjoy!

Slidex - youtube for the presentations

Everyone knows Youtube (http://www.youtube.com) - the place to look for videos. But do you know where do you need to look to find an interesting presentation about origami?

Slidex (http://www.slidex.co.il) is a rather new website (currently in Beta mode) that will let you share your presentations with others and enables you to find the presentation you were looking for. This can be a very powerful tool for anyone writing and working with Powerpoint.
Enjoy.
