doodle (Jochen) - Hyped new website from Switzerland. Assists you in scheduling meetings with using polls. http://www.doodle.ch

tinyURL (Holger) - Making long URLs usable. http://www.tinyURL.com

Journal of Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics (Jochen) - A journal with an interesting review / discussion mechanism. Is something like this feasible for computer science conferences and journals?
