Time for Re-Conditioning?
Have you pulled up to the gas pump lately and thought about how cheap gas is? If so, that's called conditioning.

It seems like there are dozens of great, new websites and web resources popping up every day. Some of these new web toys and tools are pretty cool – but it’s tough to keep track of them all. Let me save you the trouble of sorting it all out with a quick review of some of my newest faves:

1. Blurb – (www.blurb.com) Cool concept. Blurb lets you create your own, customized book in a variety of sizes or versions (hardcover, soft cover, photo book, text, etc.) You simply import your content into one of their template designs, and follow the process to build your book. Prices start at $12.95 for a small, 40-page book. Perfect for kid projects, cook books, photo essays or your own literary masterpiece!

2. Ziggs – (www.ziggs.com) This social “professional” networking site is like MySpace for grownups. Ziggs lets you organize your contacts, friends, to-do lists and e-mails in one, central “hub.” Similar to LinkedIn, but with different features.

3. Twitter – (http://twitter.com/) Web citizens are all atwitter about Twitter, the very latest blogging craze that lets you share very brief (usually one line) “twitters” about what you’re doing at this moment. Twitter describes itself as a “global community of friends and strangers” answering one question: “What are you doing right now?”

4. Tumblr – (www.tumblr.com) “If blogs are journals,” this site says, “then tumblelogs are scrapbooks.” With Tumblr, you can share or post just about anything: Photos, videos, quotes, articles, links, etc. Very user friendly and fun.

5. MyMasterboard- (http://www.mymasterboard.com/) This is a for-pay ($29 USD annually) service that allows you to design your own “vision board” for goals and affirmations. They provide photos, designs and “visioning” tools. You can also create screensavers or wallpapers for your computer.
