Find others with your name.

Will it not be interesting to find how many people in the United States have your name?

How easy to find out that?

Just go to http://www.dumb.com/namedata/, type in your first and last name and press 'Enter'.

You will be presented with the information you want and also you will see how popular your name is.

The site also gives you the HTML code to publish a nice label on your website or blog, social media sites like MySpace and Live Journal. It looks pretty neat dear.

If only the site gives you the email ids of the people with your name....
You can spam them! Just kidding.

Here is the search result of my name:

Identifying hot selling products.

Nearly every product owner would sooner or now makes a claim that his product is the hottest seller in popular online shopping sites that include buynow.com, e-bay or Amazon.

Is it true?

How to really identify which products are sold as hot cakes? It is nearly impossible to browse through thousands of Amazon web pages and the sample applies to e-Bay.

ThingBuzz lets you do that easily by searching through millions of tweets and identifying hot products. I visited Thing Buzz. I am shocked to see products featured with just one Tweet.

Have I misread something?
