The Ultimate TV Search Engine Opens Its Doors to the Public
Here's a word you're going to be hearing a lot of — Clicker! I know I often bombard you with the names of sites that stream TV shows and movies online, but now you can throw all of that knowledge out the window because a new streaming site called Clicker aggregates practically all of the shows across the web into one location.
According to TechCrunch, Clicker also pulls in Amazon Video on Demand and Netflix's Watch Instantly content (which you still have to pay for!).

Geek Tip: Expand Your Vocabulary With a Little Online Help
I've heard that the key to mental longevity is to always keep your mind open to learning new things. One easy way is to adopt a few new words and use them in your daily conversations.

Feel the DailyBurn
I'm becoming a big fan of DailyBurn — a website that lets its users track workout, diet, and health goals in easy-to-read charts and graphs. There's a ton of great health and fitness information on the site and it has a social side that lets users interact with other members.

Do You Wish More Sites Would Apologize When Crashing?
Most of you (58 percent in total) said you would just move on and forgive and forget when the website that you're visiting needs some downtime or crashes. But if it's a paid online or service, a majority of you would consider abandoning that service if it kept having issues.
I received the following email message from an online retailer that I frequently visit, and although I didn't take part in the heavy-traffic sale, I sympathize for those who were unable to take part because of the site outage.
Geek Tip: Age Your Photos Instantly Without Photoshop
There are a ton of things you can do with your digital photos and a photo editor besides just adjusting light and focus. You can make them into movie stills, or turn them into Lomo works of art. I happen to like the aged look, and it's always fun to turn them into Polaroids, but if you aren't using Poladroid, this can take forever to make the effect yourself.
Geek Tip: Find an App For That
With over 85,000 applications in Apple's App Store, it's tricky to browse by category if you're not certain exactly what you're looking for. I often find myself frustrated, thinking, "I bet there is an app for that, Apple, but where is it?" OK, I'll admit it, I may know a little too much about some apps.
