Microsoft has just released some footage of a preview of Microsoft Windows 7. From the looks of it it looks like Vista mated with a MS Surface Table and was installed on a laptop. Is this touch screen toy the answer to our Vista woes or is it just more unnecessary features that will suck our system resources away from more productive programs? We will see soon... Until then check out the video. Just a note, the video has no sound until the last 15 seconds. This is not an error it is the way it was the way it was made.

Real Time Stats and Communication for Your Blog or Site
I love trying new things to make my sites more interactive and cool. I recently found a cool app that allows you to have real-time stats on your site as well as the ability to chat with a specific visitor on your site.
Woopra is the first step into what will be the future for websites and blogs. Imagine being able to see who is on your site, where they are from, what operating system they are using, and how long they have been there in real-time. Woopra uses a desktop client to monitor your sites.
INSTALLATION
Installation is very easy. When you get your account they give you a small piece of Javascript to put on your site. Once the script is on your site you will instantly start receiving information about your visitors.
USE
The desktop client is easy to use and looks great. It gives you as much information as any other stat tool but it allows for real-time interaction with your visitors.
PRICE
Currently the beta is free. They plan to have both free and paid services.
Currently it is still in private beta but if they let me have an account, they should let anyone have one. (Actually these invites are so hard to get that someone sold theirs on Ebay!) If you are interested check them out and sign up.
