Thankfully, free web services like Prezi offer procrastinating professionals a better way to put together some pretty creative presentations.

And, if you want to get super creative, there are numerous tutorials that teach you how to jazz up your presentation with animated segues and mindmapping techniques that will inspire your audience to think outside of the box. Best of all, it’s all hosted online, so you don’t have to worry about anything happening to your expense report.

Another one I'd add to the list that’s just starting is called eventtap.com, and it does something that is needed but doesn’t exist on the web- display things to do right now in your area. I expect to see it become very popular within the next couple years, as long as people use it and add content (something which it’s lacking right now, but it’s just starting to grow)...so check it out! Maybe add it to the list!

I use left2go.com when I have a deadline to meet. It lets me know exactly how many days, hours, minutes, seconds I have left to procrastinate.

Like the previous post said, I agree that this website looks like a good idea. Seems like it lets consumers combine buying power to get a better deal.

Great combination of standbys like Kayak and io9 mixed with some useful new discoveries.
Those looking for an alternative to Hulu etc. might also take a look at Jinni http://www.jinni.com for a new, visual way to choose and get seamlessly connected to watch with Netflix, Hulu, etc.

Thanks so much for linking to ObsoelteTheBook.com! My name is Anna Jane, however. Not Mary Jane. Although, I do like Mary Janes...
The site is actually just an extension of my book, <A href="http://bit.ly/obsoletebook">OBSOLETE</a>. Thanks for allowing me this shameless plug.

I've been using Weather Underground for a long time now, and the ability to select advanced radar types alone is reason enough it beats Weather.com in my book. (Of course, WU doesn't have Heather Tesch, so it's kind of even, I guess. :) )
More than once, I've used WU to monitor approaching storms...the interactive radar display gives you six frames of playback (more if you pay), which is more than adequate to figure out where the serious weather is headed.

Oooooooo.... you just pissed off A LOT of users Mr. Naruto-avatar-person...When a Canadian pokes fun at Canada, it's funny, when a 'Mericain makes fun of the US it's funny, just not the opposites. Canada shames YOU!
