Every two years I upgrade my cell phone, retiring my old cell into what has affectionately become known as the “junk drawer.”

Part of me loves to hold onto older technology, knowing that one day I’ll laugh at how backwards it was that I thought it was cutting-edge at the time.  It’s like holding onto one of those ginormous cell phones from the movie Wall Street. Continue reading: How to Donate Your Old Cell Phone

Thanks to AccuraCast I found that Facebook released JavaScript client library which allows Facebook developers to create applications which will work from any website. Should we think that this is next big step of Facebook expansion? I don’t know, but if I remember correctly developers had possibility to embed apps into websites before this release also, but with this JavaScript client library it is much more easy to do and, what is important, it does not require any server side coding.

Ok, enough with developers – what are the user benefits? Actually it gives wide range of possibilities to interact with your personal friend network by sharing information you found on the web. it is like you are always connected with your friends surfing the web.

What is interesting from the business perspective is that before this release developers was ‘bringing’ the world to Facebook, now users are doing the same by expanding Facebook network across the web by interacting with websites. I have also no doubt that website developers will try to take a peace of Facebook pie by adding apps and increasing traffic and loyalty of visitors and, in the same time, helping Facebook to grow even faster.

Even the most novice computer user is familiar with the beautiful keyboard shortcut, Crtl + C, enabling you to copy text, images, videos, URLs and other items.

Personally, I use the shortcut all day long.  As I see things I am interested in reading, I will paste the text into Notepad.  Later in the day I usually print everything I have gathered and read it all at once.  There are several problems with this method:

- If Notepad closes due to a computer crash, all of my data is lost.
- I sometimes forget where I grabbed a clip from in case I want to return to the Website.
- Notepad only gives me one undo in case I make a typing error.

ControlC seems like it could make my life a lot easier, instantly. A tiny download will automatically send items that I “Crtl & C” – within any application – to the Control C server – as well as my local clipboard.

When text is sent it is encrypted using your password as the key.  You can then retrieve the information you have copied at any time.  Like other social clipping sites, you may make the data you clipped public for sharing and connect with “like-minded” people.

The open source site is brand new and the download functions for both Windows and Macs.  The service is free, however, a paid upgrade ($20 a year) is necessary to access older data.
