Five on Friday - five fabulous web 2.0 tools and sites of the week (24-10-08)

October 24th, 2008 by Andy Merchant

Here is my usual weekly round up of web 2.0 tools and sites.

1, Shopnics.com: Visual Comparison is a neat little web 2.0 site that gives you a graph of all the best products in a certain category in order of price. You can refine your search with sliders on the left hand side of the screen to really drill down to the correct item. - Great site!

2, explash.com is a simple to use social web 2.0 directory. It gives you news about new Web 2.0 websites, services and applications, you can also vote for your favourite sites via its community.

3, Next up is Screen Toaster a free simple to use web based screen recorder. The best thing about screen reader is that you can very easily Share videos by emailing them or embedding them on blogs, and the quality looks pretty decent too.

4, This next one is for all your travellers out their. The site is called TV Trip - The Hotel Video Guide. The aim of the site is to give video representation of hotels, so you get an idea of the hotel before your stay. The videos are shot by TVtrip professionals rather than by the hoteliers themselves, which ensures that you will receive an impartial demonstration of the place.

5, Say Tweet is my final web 2.0 site/tool of the week. Upload a photo of yourself, or you and a friend, tag each Twitter user in the photo, and each Tweet sent lands on the photo next to the correct person - a kind of image Twitter mash up!
