Just Do it !! Do not wait please

Kiva lets you connect with and loan money to unique small businesses in the developing world. By choosing a business on Kiva.org, you can "sponsor a business" and help the world's working poor make great strides towards economic independence. Throughout the course of the loan (usually 6-12 months), you can receive email journal updates from the business you've sponsored. As loans are repaid, you get your loan money back.

Search persons with phone number

Sullr is a tool for obtaining information from telephone lines in reverse mode. Very quickly, it will allow you to know the name of the person responsible and find on the map the address where he is.

At present, we only have 5 countries available: Argentina, Belgium, France, Italy and the USA. But we are working to offer many more (as long as the laws of each country allow it).

Organise your personal and shared expenses.

Working out where your money goes is one of life's little pleasures. Most people look at their bank account at the end of the month and wonder why they are "financially challenged", wouldn't it be great if at the click of a button you could instantly calculate how much money you've spent on petrol over the last 6 weeks or how much money you've spent on lunch every wednesday in the last year, impossible we hear you say...well we don't think so!

Search on the net and save energy. Joke ?

Blackle was created by Heap Media to remind us all of the need to take small steps in our everyday lives to save energy. Blackle searches are powered by Google Custom Search.

Blackle saves energy because the screen is predominantly black. "Image displayed is primarily a function of the user's color settings and desktop graphics, as well as the color and size of open application windows; a given monitor requires more power to display a white (or light) screen than a black (or dark) screen." Roberson et al, 2002
