FiveSecondTest

Here's a fun tool for landing page optimization. Actually, it's more fun for you and me as 'testers'. The way it works is that you given a short period of time to give your opinion on a certain design (graphic, logo, etc) or overall webpage layout.

You earn karma points for each design you 'test'. It's fun.

If you're a designer/developer, Fivesecondtest helps you fine tune your landing pages and calls to action by analyzing the most prominent elements of your design.

Beck made the sheet music. YOU make the recording.

Beck’s latest album comes in an almost-forgotten form—twenty songs existing only as individual pieces of sheet music, never before released or recorded. Song Reader is an experiment in what an album can be at the end of 2012—an alternative that enlists the listener in the tone of every track.

This is a music fan's dream. Beck is WAY cool...and this is today's Cool Site of the Day.

My choice for SEO monitoring

Of all the SEO reporting tools that I use, Raven Tools is the one I rely on the most.

Raven presents much of the same data that several other worthy resources offer. The big difference is in the customized reports that you can generate. This is a great plus for agencies and consultants who regularly report back to their clients.

To be honest, there isn't a thing that Raven Tools does poorly. If there's any negative to their vast toolset, it's that they provide TOO MANY reports from which to choose.

With a 30-day free trial, you'd be crazy not to check them out.

If Apple had a printing company...

I could try to tell you how cool MOO is but you just have to experience their product and service for yourself. MOO prints stuff; all sorts of stuff. And, when they deliver it, you want to save the packaging just like you want to save the packaging that encases your beloved Macbook, iPad, and iPhone.

Here's what blew my mind about MOO: I was able to order new business cards (100) and have a unique image or photo printed on the backside of each...and they pulled the photos from my Facebook photo albums! They call this Printfinity (the ability to print a different image/design on every card in the pack at no extra cost!) and they do so on premium paper stock. Insanely great, for sure.

Beyond that, they have a crazy cool assortment of holiday cards at 25% off (just in time).
