Do you have a hankering for a hunk of cheese (Ah School House Rock) Or you have no idea where you want to go to lunch? - Well the Wheel of Food to the rescue. Just type in the Zip Code box where you want to eat some grub at and then type in what you want to eat - (Lunch, Dinner, Italian, Breakfast, Pizza, Hamburgers, Steak, Seafood, Ok You get the idea) Then you get to spin the wheel of Food and see where you are going to go - What is nice is this website pulls it data from Yahoo-Local and even gives you their ratings and website info in case you don't know where this place is located at.

What does the Wheel of Food
Have in store for you today??

Relax Online for Free

Mood Music Relaxation Zen Like I just had to share this website I was told about today - It is called Free Soothing Music - and i have been listening to it for the past couple of hours and it is wonderful. I feel my inner self being relaxed. I was able to get quite a bit accomplished as I was relaxed. I do feel music tames the beast and this music is like sitting in a hot tub for your mind. Make sure you check out the categories page as there is even more relaxing music available there as well. You have to choose from Exotica, Acapella, Easy Listening, Easy Pop, Instrumental Pop, Jazz, Lounge Music, Mood Music, Orchestral, Torch Songs and Vocal Pop. So far all the channels I have listened to are soft, easy to listen to and relaxing. I might go as far to say this music is Zen like to the soul. Give it a whirl and enjoy.

Peace

Merlin

Online Tool: Visuword - Online Visual Dictionary

Visual Word - Visual Dictionary Like a Mind Map Previously I wrote about the Visual Thesaurus and now I found another cool online word tool - VisuWord - They call it the online visual dictionary. I have to agree - I like how it interlinks the words and visually shows you which words are related and which ones are the same and which ones are opposite. This can be a fairly useful tool - Not something I will use everyday but can be quite useful to have in your arsenal of word tools. Like using a mind map but of words and their inter-relationship.

Google App Short Cuts Keys I love using the different Google Apps (Calendar, Gmail, Docs, Maps, Video, Reader) And I have found out that one of the things that makes working with all the different Google Apps that much easier is the use of the Keyboard Shortcuts. Well, Smallwire has a nicely formated chart of all the Keyboard Shortcuts.
