Dear oh dear, whatever next? I guess I’m getting a bit too old for new crazes in the pubs and bars of the world but just reading the developers blurb for this one gives a strong enough hint that the art of conversation and personal interaction is sadly on the way out. There is obviously a market for something like this as the site points out what we all know already. That is on that many a night out with a group of friends at least half of them will spend more time tapping away at their cell phones than taking part ... Read more
I can see this one providing endless hours of fun and endless hours of hangovers starting the day after the party. It’s also probably a good idea for this post-Christmas time of year when most of us have got a load of half-drunk bottles of all sorts sitting in our cupboards. That bottle of sweet vermouth for example that you had to get in for Auntie Betty or the sherry your mum likes but only ever has one glass of is often redundant once the festivities are over but with Bartender you can get mixing!

Now come on! Does anybody seriously collect beer? The whole notion of someone actually collecting beer sums up an image of a guy opening the fridge or cupboard door, staring admiringly at the bottles (and maybe even stroking a few) before closing it again still thirsty. In the loosest sense of the term I suppose that I am collector of beer but in the Homer Simpson mould. I collect a slab on a weekly basis and would you believe it I have to collect another load a week later! Read more
If you’re made of the sort of money that allows you to keep 500+ bottles of wine in your cellar then $49 a year for this site’s premium plan will seem like a spit in the ocean. I can usually manage to rack up about 30 bottles pre-Christmas, however, they never seem to make it much past New Year’s Eve and although I’ve often thought about keeping the labels in a scrapbook of the one’s I like it’s always something someone else does. Anyway if wine’s your passion, as a collector as well as a guzzler I might add, then this one ... Read more

Here’s one with a potential double sided benefit in that it can help those people looking for a top-tier lawyer and also act as a marketing tool for those very same legal eagles. Obviously if you’re after the brains of a top-tier lawyer your requirement is unlikely to be in respect of a small family house purchase (unless it’s a mansion in Beverly Hills) or a small unpaid debt claim. In this respect the site is clearly aimed at individuals or businesses with a fairly complex legal issue who are willing to spend the going rate for proven quality. Read more
ˈIt’s not what you but who you knowˈ is a phrase that often pops up in connection with people who manage to land a job that to the innocent bystander seems way beyond them. Well this site positively encourages you to use your friends and any influence they may have to get you a job where they work but if you don’t have a Facebook account you can’t, at least for the moment, play along. It might be simplifying it a little I suppose. After all if you wanted a job and needed to ask your friends to put in a good ... Read more

Apartment hunting is a scary business especially in NYC. It can also be an expensive business and not only in respect of the rental prices as there is often "Mr Ten Per cent" to consider and he likes his cake at both ends of the transaction. Naked Apartments can go a long way to not only help you find what you’re looking for but in a lot of cases succeed without you having to stump up the broker fees that go with it. Read more
