Blogger Help : What is BlogThis! ?

Blogger Help : What is BlogThis! ?: "What is BlogThis! ?

BlogThis! is an easy way to make a blog post without visiting blogger.com. Once you add the BlogThis! link to your browser's toolbar, blogging will be a snap. Or rather, a click. Clicking BlogThis! creates a mini-interface to Blogger prepopulated with a link to the web page you are visiting, as well as any text you have highlighted on that page. Add additional text if you wish and then publish or post from within BlogThis!"

---I've been waiting for this for a long time.
It's not how I would have made it, but it will suffice. I just need to count on people to read what I post.

that knows what i'm in the mood to do

Often people don't know what they want to do. Sit in their room, don't know what they want to do, but there are still lots of things (in the long term) that they want to work on / do / etc.

If there is nothing that I want to do, other than lay in bed - I want a system to tell me.

A transcriber

That can record a conversation, or listen to a taped conversation, and
transcribe it, recognizing the people who speak, and attributing the
text to them, just like an online chat.

Similarly, a transcriber for video, for events in the video, linking
the spoken text to the video clips.

That is able to resolve conflicts in my schedule. I mean when I'm talking to someone, in real time, it can pull up the day in question in my schedule. When I'm IMing - it monitors, and when I make plans, it tells me in advance.

If there's a birthday coming up in the next few weeks, and I'm going to the mall - it should remind me to buy gifts.

But mainly, it should tag e-mails that come in, asking to hang out, with either free times, telling me that i'm free - or providing times to book.

Visual Search Visual Search

i want a search engine

so that i can give the engine a picture

a photo

an image

and the engine tells me who it is

and it does the same search as if i had entered the name of that person

(of course, it can be a building, a cartoon, a map of a country, a
sine curve, whatever)

That will tell me where e-mail is coming from

E-mails have a lot of routing information in their header.

I want to easily know if the sender is sending from home / work / lab
by tracing the routing information
