GoogleNews
The Science/Technology subdivision of GoogleNews, carried an article on Kindle (from Amazon) which has been endorsed by Oprah Winfrey.
Oprah Endorses Amazon.com's Kindle. The gadget was "life changing" for her!
I found a Kindle at the Loans desk this morning. I used the Illiad e-book some time ago as it was being passed among library staff. The above article ties in nicely with the presentation from the IT specialist at Wesley college last Thursday.
ListAfterList
From ListAfterList I extracted this Top 10 Saddest Songs Ever . All these lists are very subjective.
On the more objective side of things I did a search for accounting reading list and the first link, although not immediately relevant, deals with the Academic disciplines in Law. The list appears lifted from Wikipedia as is the following Library and Information Science disciplines lists.
If prepared to search one can find interesting lists that can be the starting point for more targetted searches.
PollDaddy
Testimonials indicate that some very reputable organisations (American Chemical Society, Techcrunch, aFrench recruiting agency) use this application. It appears very similar to Survey Monkey, at least in its survey part.

I listed the wish to meditate as one of my goal which I share with 2,066 at 7 pm on October 2008. The heading MEDITATE was suggested by 43 Things. The entry reads: Meditation first thing in the morning helps focus the mind and re-establish some balance in an hectic life. It is also time off for oneself. To still the mind is hard work that comes with practice. Time to start again. I set myself a challenge about finishing 21 lunges by a certain date.
I did not find "Today's Tags" on the site nor the rate at which I want to be reminded.
43 Places
Entry posted on 43 Places: My entry: Bomarzo is located in the province of Viterbo, between Rome and Florence. It is a medieval village perched on a hill and has become quite famous since the restoration of the Parco dei Mostri. Even Readers’s Feast in Melbourne had a book on the park/garden of Bomarzo. I spent many a summer in that village before comming to Australia.

43 Things on Del_icio_us. That's it for this section. Now about the semantic web....

Today's tags are mostly down the bottom of every page. They're things that other people want to do and are arranged in a tag cloud format.
If you click on one of your things to do, a drop down box apears next to it called "Now you can...". You can select 'Set a reminder' and this allows you to choose when you want a reminder email. You can also edit the email. I think this is what they mean by adjusting the rate. I can't see anything else where you could do it.
I must have done something right without knowing because I'm now inundated with email reminders
