TechRadar, one of my favorite websites, came out with a list of 20 websites that changed the world. As I stated on the most recent Moxie Mo Show, I agree with most of their list while I disagree with a few of their choices as well.

If you think about the internet and how much it’s literally exploded in just a short amount of time, it doesn’t take a long time to see just how much technology has truly changed the world. Remember when Geocities was the only social networking site around and no one ever used Google?

Take a look at TechRadar’s list. What websites do you think they left off? Leave a comment below stating your most favorite website and why you think it’s changed the world.

A Moxie Way to Surf the Web

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

Cali Lewis, from Geekbrief.tv, just informed all of us viewers about an awesome new technology that, to me, is so moxie I couldn’t help but write about it as well! Publicis and Hal Riney have a new way to surf their site… WITH THE MOTION OF YOUR HANDS! No more touching the keys on your keypad. No more using the mouse to navigate. As long as you have a webcam, you can use the “Air Hands” technology to navigate!

Check out the demo I made while on the site… it’s fantastic and quite moxie! icon wink A Moxie Way to Surf the Web

You will see, at first, the intro to the website where you do a test to make sure your webcam is monitoring your hand signals. Then you’ll see the actual site and me navigating my way (left, right, and top) through it.

Please DIGG this if you think it’s interesting/cool…
