Today we have a trio of live performances. Two of them are from concerts and the third is from the Late Show with David Letterman. The three artists are: the Counting Crows, the Cure, and Maroon 5.

There are many really nice web apps out there now. Some of them are designed for pure entertainment, others are designed for tracking personal information, and still others serve a clear design purpose.

Here are a couple that I like:

  • My Mile Marker – a nice app that helps you track your car’s mpg over time.
  • Wufoo – an online html form builder. They have a number of pre-designed templates that you can choose from and alter.
  • Typetester – an online font comparison app that helps you see what your online content will look like in various fonts.

What web apps are out there that you use or find particularly interesting?

Sungevity is a company that does residential solar panel installations. They have this cool web app that lets you enter you address and then determines how much energy you will need. They use satellite imagery to help design the system.

When you’re ready to see how much solar your home needs, Sungevity makes it easy. Simply enter your address, and we’ll design a system for your roof remotely, using satellite images. We’ll get back to you with the systems that will fit on your roof – all online and free.

Pretty cool, but unfortunately it is for California residents only.

Today we have a trio of various artists. The first artist is Kathleen York (aka Bird York) with her song In The Deep from the album Wicked Little High. Many people might recognize this song from the movie Crash. Then we have the video of Sting’s song Desert Rose. We close out today with a live performance of Sarah Brightman performing her cover of the Hooverphonic song Eden. This performance is from the 1998 Goldene Europa Award ceremony.
