Déjà vu? Déjà YOU!

If you're looking to make your web work a little more efficient, you've gotta check out DejaClick. This is an add-on specifically for the Firefox Internet browser which you can download here for free. Here's how it's described: "In a nutshell, DejaClick allows you to record any series of steps or actions you take in your Firefox browser and then play them back with a single click." So, if you use a website daily and have to make three or four clicks to navigate to the spot you want to be, record the actions with DejaClick and you'll get there with just one! Mac users, use iMacro. (BTW - if you want to learn more about the benefits of using different browsers like Firefox, check out this article.)

Feetie Fashion

Remember "feetie" pajamas? Those cozy jammies that covered your entire body including your feet? Well, there not just for kiddos anymore! Yep, JumpinJammerz makes ‘em for adults! I'm so buying a pair. (Hmmm...Grammar Girl should address this issue - would feetie pajamas be plural? Are they a "pair" or should it be singular?)

What Can U Do in One Day?

According to their website, "One Day University brings together award-winning professors from Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Columbia, and other top-tier schools to create the most stimulating day of college available anywhere." With an amazing list of lecturers, anyone can participate in higher education. Enjoy thought provoking and mind expanding discussions in History, Psychology, Philosophy, Political Science, English Literature, and more. At One Day University there are no entrance exams, no SATs to ace, and no stress. That's MY kind of school!

Peek into an Artist's Space

I love this website and can easily get sucked in for hours. The Selby offers photos of artists in their artistic spaces - their studios, homes, offices, etc. From painters, to singers, to costume designers, the range of people and places showcased is widely varied. Some you might know (Michael Stipe, singer for R.E.M) and some you might not (Jacques Grange, interior architect) but all are intriguing. Artists are quirky and they tend to inhabit quirky environments - which is what makes this site so fascinating.
