Find a loo anywhere in the world
Forget about having your cash stolen - let"s talk about a real emergency! In the U.S. we look for a rest room; in the UK you"ll look for the loo. No matter where you are traveling (even if it"s a walk in your home town), at TheBathroomDiaries.com, you will find a free and clean pit stop.
With ratings on thousands of facilities listed in every major city in the world from Argentina to Zimbabwe, you can even check the Golden Plunger awards for the world"s highest-rated rest rooms when you plan your vacation.

An alternative audio/video program
Sometimes it gets frustrating with so many media file types and two major players, neither one of which will play the other"s files. In addition many complain that the two major players often use "aggressive" strategies like trying to convince you to upgrade from a no-cost player to one with lots of bells and whistles and, of course, with a monthly cost.
Now comes Jetaudio.com, a player that will play all major file formats and is loaded with features such as recording, audio CD burning, conversion, Internet broadcasting, speed control and multichannel sound output -- just to mention a few.
And to top it off there is no cost for the basic program, and at this date, they don"t nag the daylights out of you!
