Usability

Simply toolcious!

Visuwords
Today more than 10 million children started using computers and internet.But i feel, not even 50% of them spend their time usefully.The reason is,useful sites are not so impressive(according to children).They love sites which uses some graphics.In that way,I am sure children will love VisuWords.
VisuWords is a beautiful online graphical dictionary.If you ask your kid to refer the dictionary to learn atleast one new word a day,will they do?But VisuWords will make your kid learn more than 100 words a day.Just enter the word. It will produces an interactive graph where you can easily perceive the different word associations.

oSkope
When you search for some books or a video clip ,the search engines will list you some results( as links) and to get more info you need to click the link to visit the actual page.Instead,if there is a search engine which gives you little more info before going to the actual page,how nice it will be?For example,think that your are looking for a book on Java.You don’t know the book name but you remember only its colorful cover.If this is the case,how will you search for the book in Google or Yahoo?Google Book Search???Fine.But Google Book Search wont show you the price of the book without clicking the link. If you are looking for little more information including its price without clicking the link,then oSkope is the best place to search. oSkope allows you to search for items on different web services like eBay, Amazon, flickr, and YouTube and gives you a visual result. Choose one of the four sites that oSkope uses and enter the search term.With a pretty good flash-based interface,oSkope will produce a visual list of results.
