pdfurl
PDF users have a new Web converter tool at their disposal with PDFmyURL, a simple, one-function site that converts any live Web site into a static PDF file–something handy for offline reading, long-term archiving, and sticking on PDF-friendly e-book readers like Amazon’s Kindle. It can also be a lifesaver, if you’re on a computer without PDF-making software that would otherwise enable you to “print” a PDF copy of your own.

Adobe Browserlab
Adobe Systems are bringing out a cool update to its version of a BrowserLab service. It allows web developers to speed up production by displaying how a site they are working on may look when rendered by different browsers.
This is the cool bit. The most recent change is for users to save a local version of its results as a full-quality JPG image file. brilliant and very useful.
Trackle
Trackle, a personalized web and RSS feed tracker is making itself a whole lot more social today with the launch of a real-time search engine on the site that lets you follow other people’s Trackles. Trackle.com’s free web service provides personalized RSS feeds for data such as the latest crime in a user’s neighborhood, fluctuating airline ticket prices, how much a user’s house value is down this week, updated job listings, sports scores and more.
The new search platform within Trackle lets you search for other user’s trackings by keyword. Here’s how it works: people within the Trackle community contribute by setting up alerts for very specific and changing information (they will show up in search when users set up their profiles as public). These alerts are then shared by the community, specific, time-sensitive information, such as information is then posted on Trackle as it happens, in real time. Duplicate requests are removed, so there are no repeated alerts.

Consumer’s don’t share your message when the intend of the video is all about selling. However, they’re happy to spread a video that delivers entertainment, unique footage and a fair amount of quality. National Geographic understands these values like no other. The proof? A video with amazing footage gone viral by generating over 1.5 million views in 2 weeks. Amazing

PS3
Here’s a warning if ever there was one that playing too much on your games console could end you in trouble.
Seems one girlfriend was a little too miffed that her boyfriend was playing on his PS3too much so after having enough decides to talk matters in to her own hands.
In April a survey found 1 in 3 British men would prefer to play video gamesthan sleep with their partner, with 72% claiming they’d shun their missus for the night to play a new release.
From a study of 1130 British men, of those in relationships, 32% that said they would prefer to play video games gave reasons ranging from their “partner being hard to please” to the prospect being “not as much fun” as gaming.
So do you think the couple are still dating? After watching the video, we very much doubt it.

Coke Zero Face Profiler
Coca-Cola on Thursday launched a facial-matching Facebook application called the Coke Zero Facial Profiler.
As long as users have at least three photos of themselves in their Facebook profile, the application searches across other pictures from Facebook users that have used the app to find someone whose face matches theirs most accurately. Those that don’t have three images can either upload a picture into the app from their desktop or capture a picture from their Webcam.
