Around the Web: Synchronize Your Breathing

Things Other People Accomplished at Your Age

Are you ready to feel inspired? If so, check out this website! Enter your age and see what others have accomplished by the time they got there. Depending on your outlook, it can be super motivating or really depressing. You can even submit your own. Apparently, they're looking for both extraordinary achievements and "worthless, pathetic or dubious accomplishments". I'm sure we can all find something that fits into one of these buckets.

Phone invitations as easy as 1-2-3

Do you ever get stuck calling a ton of people, all for the same purpose? You might want to consider automating the process and saving a bundle of time by using PhoneInvite. Just enter your contact phone numbers, record your message and let the system take over by sending it to all the numbers automatically, while you get back to surfing OfficeArrow.

Poll the Public

Buzzdash is a cool site that uses short surveys (buzzbites) to measure popular opinion on pretty much any issue. You can view the results, participate or create your own. It's fun just to stumble around and see the "popular" opinions. Of course, anyone who understands research methodology even on the most basic level will know that these polls are of little value since the group answering consists of Buzzdash users alone. I wouldn't use these stats to support drastic political moves or anything. But it's still kind of fun.

Fun with Shoes Laces

Ok, I know you probably don't wear sneakers at work. But surely you own a few pairs and enjoy running around in them on weekends. Why not have a little fun with it and use one of these creative lace-up styles? If you've got kids, you'll be the coolest parent in town.

Techno-Meditation

If you're a fan of guided meditation or if you're just looking to relax for a minute, The Universal Breathing Room is a pretty cool way to do it. It's not anything entirely special, but it's still a nice experience. Personally, I like the new age mediation tools I find online. Anyone else feel the same? If so, share some that you've found!
