Audioscrobbler: Musical Match-making by Josh Rubin
There are all sorts of match making sites out there, but few of them really work well. The best ones take very specific information in to account. But who wants to enter all sorts of specific information? Audioscrobbler finds matches based on music listening preferences. It sits in the background of your music player, so there's not extra work for you.
Thanks Scott!

It hosts an incredibly impressive amount of data, and equally impressive user interface. via Data...

Name Voyager
The Name Voyager, from Baby Name Wizard, is a fascinating visualization of the US Social Security Administration's historical database of names. Enter part or all of any name and this little Java application will dynamically plot how many babies were given that name during each decade, instantly giving you a sense of when (if ever) that name was popular. I already knew Josh was...

Mappr
Mappr, developed by Stamen Design, is a place based interface to the Flickr photo database that enables a new slant on photo viewing and provides some relatively fascinating ethnographic research. You can search for images by keyword, date or region. For now it only shows the images in the Mappr Flickr group, but in the Spring it should be up and running with all...

Monome
Since the multi-use controller Monome first came out a few years back, it's slowly gained a cult following thanks to its attractive and flexible design. If you're unfamiliar with the device, the Monome is an ultra-tactile, interactive and adaptable MIDI interface that takes advantage of open-source software to manipulate any number of musical parameters.

mStation Orb
I swear I'm not that big of a nerd, but anything that kind of reminds me of Star Wars is just totally awesome, especially when it happens to look like the Death Star. The Orb from mStation is just that, a sleek and stylish "Made for iPod" desktop docking station/speaker system that, just like the name suggest, is an orb that packs a powerful...
