Renaming "favorites" with Greasemonkey
I wrote a Greasemonkey script that lets you, on-the-fly, modify the "favorites" label on comments. Originally written because the November experiment's "faved" was unpopular, but since updated for the classic count of favorites.

Password Generator
Using the same password for multiple email, e-commerce and social networking websites is risky, but 61% of web users still do it. This tool allows you to generate unique passwords for a bunch of popular websites in one step. Based on Nic Wolff's original.

Mamaswap
My wife recently started her own site for helping moms buy and sell kid stuff. The goal was to be cheaper than ebay, easier to navigate than craig's list, with the bonus of face-to-face swap meets. (save on shipping while getting to know folks in your area! :)

Kickstarter, crowdfunding for people who make stuff.
Kickstarter lets creative people -- journalists, artists, musicians, game developers, entrepreneurs, bloggers -- raise money for their projects by connecting directly with their fans, who receive exclusive access and rewards in exchange for their patronage. Set a fundraising goal, deadline, and a set of rewards for backers. If the goal's reached by the deadline, then everyone's charged and backers get their goodies. If not, nobody's charged. Make stuff, without the upfront risk!

Making Something New Everyday
I'm trying to make something new each day and write about it for a year. I just posted project #100. Some of the better entries: Robot Tea Cup and Saucer, Color Perfect Pitch Tester, Hidden Chamber Hamburger, Poop (1 2), Capacitor Bugs, Accidental Gay Cardinals, Fibonacci Petticoat, Marzipan Birds and Laptop

Home of the Underdogs
Basically a modern version of Home of the Underdogs. Full database imported, user comments, user added reviews, user ratings, community all integrated. It's still ongoing, and will hopefully get more polished as time goes on. Downloads are still forthcoming.

Art Browser
Here's a site I made for browsing Art history and different artists associated with movements. Sort of a mash up of sources. Hope you like it.

Life-Altering Experiences: How a Single Question Tapped into the Soul of MetaFilter
Remember the Life-Altering Experiences thread? People kept saying, "This should be made into a book." So I did! This link is to the hardcover version, but there is also a free eBook version.
