19/03: Imagini Visual Profile
With this site you can profile yourself in a typical Web 2.0 fashion: just select your choices of your favourite images and you get your profile. It even includes a matching service and a gift suggestion service.
Don't know if these kind of sites actually help to assess your personality, but at least you can find my profile here.

26/01: If I dig a very deep hole...
This site uses Google Maps to show where you would end up if you dig a whole from where you are to the other side of the globe. Seems that I will be ending up swimming a long distance for New Zealand.

18/01: LibraryThing
What is Last.fm for music is LibraryThing for books: a site that catalogues your book collection adds book suggestions and a social network to this catalogue. See the example below to see some excerpts from my book collection.
It is also very easy to import from cataloguing software, like I did with an export file with just the ISBN numbers from Book Collector from Collectorz.com.
One of my favourite SF&Fantasy series are the Liaden Universe novels by Sharon Lee and Steve Miller.
Now a new addition in this series is announced that will be publicised in a novel way: online serialization, a new chapter will be placed online as long as US$ 300,- in donations are received per chapter.
As a fan of the series I can certainly recommend a donation!

30/11: Flickr time
Another web application with a very nice Flickr implementation: Flickr Time. You do need a high bandwith internet connection to use this though.

Funny website trying to reinstate New York as a Dutch colony. They even made a trailer of what this would look like.
