With the rise of social media giants like Facebook, Twitter, and even Skype, something like this was just bound to happen. Maybe Twitter needs to be more visual. Maybe Facebook needs to be more interactive. Maybe Skype is too limited. Enter the newest fad in social media: ChatRoulette.com.

ChatRoulette is based on the simple principle that “profound human connection happens by the luck of the draw”. The new social networking site allows users to hook up their webcams, log on to the site, and immediately be connected with an anonymous stranger. If they’re not into it, the user simply needs to click “Next” to move onto the next, potentially stranger, stranger.

Anyone else thinking “stranger danger”?

ChatRoulette.com is the latest fad in social networking Web sites

Maybe you could use a little help…

The Tiger Woods fiasco has everyone buzzing about infidelity and wronged wives wielding golf clubs. Intelius, a Bellevue, Washington based company headed by former Microsoft executive Naveen Jain, has offered some advice to anyone who suspects their significant other isn’t walking the straight and narrow.

Intelius says that Elin Nordengren could have used technology to catch her husband in the act. Intelius offers five tips on catching A Cheatin’ Heart in the act. The site Hollywood Life published Intelius’ suggestions:

1. Google Latitude: This app can be downloaded on your Smartphone…and then you can “accidentally” leave the phone in your spouse’s car. It will keep track of the spouse’s general location as long as your Smartphone has GPS.
2. Intelius Reverse Directions: With this tool, you can plug in a cell phone number, and Intelius will find the address it is associated with. Or you can put in an email address, and Intelius will try to find a match. With its massive public information database, Intelius can legally tap into public records and find out where these strange emails and middle-of-the-night phone calls are coming from.
3. Slydial: Slydial allows you to dial a number’s voice mailbox without the person knowing. This way, you can avoid any confrontation while you’re getting an idea of a suspicious phone number on your straying lover’s cell phone.
4. Social Media: Another way to monitor your potential playboy/playgirl is check out their social media space on Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace. If some strange man or woman is always leaving comments on their profile, you may want to look into that.
5. Webcam: This should be only used as a last resort to document any cheating going on.

Thanks to Cutting-Edge Formulations and Clinically-Proven Ingredients, the Appearance of Cellulite Can Be Dramatically Minimized.

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) June 25, 2008 — Dermitàge®, a leading provider of scientifically-advanced and effective skin rejuvenation products, recently launched the Dermitàge® Cellulite Control System, the next-generation of products in the combat against cellulite. The Dermitàge Cellulite Control System is the latest addition to the brand’s line of highly-effective, anti-aging skin care and body care products.

“Nine out of ten women report having cellulite,” said Allison Landis, Sr. Product Manager for Dermitàge. “The cellulite products in this kit are specifically formulated with the most advanced and proven ingredients in the on-going battle against cellulite. Although diet and exercise help, the addition of a specific cellulite control product regimen such as this kit can definitely help improve skin’s tone, firmness and appearance. By implementing and continuing with the 2-step Dermitàge cellulite system, many users are experiencing visible results in only a matter of weeks.”

The 2-step system features Stimulating Massage Soap and Firm and Tone Cellulite Control Gel. The Stimulating Massage Soap, with its unique massage nubs, gently massages the skin, while improving circulation and infusing cellulite-prone areas with Multi-sal encapsulated caffeine. The Firm and Tone Gel is an advanced solution that contains caffeine, soy, spirulina and carnitine, all which serve as specific cellulite-fighting ingredients with clinically proven benefits. In fact, in independent clinical studies, the ingredients in the Cellulite Control Gel were shown to increase skin elasticity by 60%, improve skin texture by 50% and reduce the appearance of cellulite by up to 50%.

Dermitàge formulations combine powerful anti-aging ingredients with a patented, delivery system known as Qu-Somes. This proprietary ingredient delivery system is one of the most advanced currently available in skin care. By maximizing penetration and ensuring deep delivery, the effectiveness of the ingredients will be heightened and continually released where they are needed most. Furthermore, the entire Dermitàge line is paraben-free.

“Dermitàge products offer skin and body care solutions that work,” Landis said. “Independent clinical research proves the incredible effectiveness of the formulation ingredients. All women deserve a fabulous and effective new way to look and feel their best this summer. There is no doubt that Dermitàge will help improve the way women feel about their bodies.”
