Keep up with current web trends

I cannot say I can keep up with current web trends since I don’t have much time to check out. I just like searching something I didn’t know before or interesting. One way is digging in del.icio.us (I love it so much that I recommend to my every friend!) and another is learning from some BBS.

Recently, I’m watching movies/tv shows from a website that use p2p theory to broadcast live videos. When there are more than 100 people watching, it’s hardly buffering. I’m excited about the finding because I’m a big fan of p2p and it cuts short of time for downloading. www.8000tv.com but it’s in Chinese.

http://www.pandora.com/ is an online customerized radio station. I don’t have comparison but this one so far work well. Its selections are acceptable:)

1. One genius search engine that overcomes a shortcoming of google: http://www.filangy.com/ , only displaying active websites.
2. blogs search engine: http://www.technorati.com/
3. A trick to search downloadable specific files such as mp3: http://www.tech-recipes.com/google_tips851.html
4. A good online music radio: www.live365.com
5. A good p2p music sharing software: www.kugoo.com unfortunately it’s made in china so it only has chinese version. It’s better than kazaa, soulseek and some other I used before becos it’s faster and more stable.

1. www.torrentspy.com is the best torrent website I find so far. More current and high speed. For movies with chinese subtitle, I go to www.btchina.net.
2. I have three gmail accounts: one for regular mails, one for documents backup and the other for music sharefolder.
3. I go back www.flickr.com every other week to refresh my picture collection.
4. I buy half number of stuff from eBay and taobao.com, a chinese c2c website, every other week.
5. Havent’ figured out:)
