Feedster by Josh Rubin
Feedster, despite the not so cool name, is the hottest new thing in the RSS world. They index all the RSS / XML feeds they can find and provide you with a search engine for just that content. What's even hotter is that you can save that search as an RSS feed. No more plugging a million sites in to you news reader and trying to keep them organized. Now you just set up Feedster searches for the content you're interested in, and plug the feed from your search in to your reader.
My prediction: Google will buy them within 6 months.

Epic 2014
Robin Sloan and Matt Thompson have put together a pretty interesting vision of the media circa 2014. Basically they see all media becoming totally personalized and decentralized, driven by individual personalities and intelligent filtration systems. And of course, it's all enabled by Google and Amazon. They may take it to a bit of an extreme, but they certainly summarize a direction many of us...

Google Maps Meets Craigslist
In my mind this little utility is simply just a genius mix. The cross pollination of two of the best resources available on the internet-- Google's new mapping service, and the classified listings page, Craigslist. This utility lets you surf both at once-- you can select city, price range, and drag along a map while seeing icons representing apartments for rent or sale. It...

Scroogle Search Engine
Did you know that every Google search you make is recorded and archived by the company? Privacy-minded folks point out that as Google has become part of our everyday lives, our tastes and preferences on the net give away a lot more than we'd normally share with a stranger, let alone a corporation with nearly 14,000 employees worldwide. While Google keeps your search terms...

Blackle
Stop using Google and start using Blackle. Based on the idea that a black screen uses less energy than a white one, it will also act as a reminder to keep taking small steps towards saving energy every time you search in black. Hopefully you've already heard about it and are using it, but we found it worthwhile enough to spread the word some...

Quikmaps
Quikmaps is another installation in the ever-growing collection of Google Maps mash-ups. Handy for scribbling a quick overlay of information, Quikmaps lets you save, email and post your creation. In addition to being highly useful it's open ended so creative-types with a map fetish can draw till their heart's content. If you're so inclined, make some map art and send it to us at...

Google Moon
To Honor the 36th anniversary of the first manned moon landing Google has given us Google Moon. Using the Google Maps interface you can pan and zoom across the moon's surface and view the locations of each Apollo landing. Zoom in all the way for a silly little surprise! Thanks, JGG!...
