At the moment I am completely emersed in SingShot, it’s just such an amazing service, but all it can be explained as is online Karaoke. I’m way too scared to do Karaoke, I don’t like getting up in front of people, much less singing in front of people, but this is something I could actually do in the privacy of my own home.

They have an infinite amount of song choices, so your going to always find one you enjoy, and one of the BEST things about it all, is that the community is nothing short of spectacular. Everyone is so nice, and I haven’t seen a bad thing said about anyone yet. I haven’t done one myself, but I’m actually considering it, do you think you could handle the musical styling s of Justin?!!?

Intype is brand new code/text editor build for the Windows platform, so new in fact, that it only has had one release so far. I came accross this yesterday and was expecting to see a very immature editor, but for something that is only in Alpha release I was surprised to see what a great potential it has.

The product is lacking some of the key features your going to want in any IDE, but it supports a multitude of languages, and has great syntax highlighting. It comes stock with several different themes which allow you to change the colors to more of your liking. The text can be changed as well. Due to the fact it is still in alpha you can’t customize it beyond what options your already given.

I did some work on a project using Intype last night and was pretty impressed with it, although there are plenty of things that it’s missing, I definitely believe that it’s in the right direction. One thing I would love to see that it’s lacking is multiple tabbed editing, and project file management.

Everyone knows how insane it can be when you’ve got exams, homework assignments, that end of the year major project that you didn’t start until a week before it’s due, and so many other things that you need to get done for school, and we all know how much that can really drive you nuts, and eventually you half-ass something and don’t get the marks your expect.

Well GradeFix is trying to change all that. The idea behind GradeFix is to organize your assignments, projects, and tests in such a way that works best for you and your busy schedule. Organizing your school stuff to work around your current schedule is very very hard to do, and can often lead to stress, and bad grades. Grade fix helps you organize your team which lowers stress, gives you more time that you don’t have to worry, and you’ll notice the grades will help you as well.

Most people think they have there schedule under control, but they don’t, or that their current system works just fine, and are really just too lazy to write everything down. Try it for a couple of months and watch as everything becomes much easier.
