Choosing Hair Straighteners

I recently wanted to buy a set of hair straighteners for a friend. I was absolutely overwhelmed by the number of different makes and types in the Argos catalogue.

Ceramic, ionic, infrared, tourmaline, nano-silver.
You need a degree in science to work out what it all means! Prices range from under £20 to over £100. Clearly the more expensive hair straighteners will have more features but are they better?

For information and advice on choosing hair straighteners have a look at hair-straighteners.net

Unofficial Meta Crawler

Yzoosearch.com

I came across an interesting new search engine recently: YzooSearch.com

The idea behind it seems to be that most web users will only be interested in the first page of results from any search engine as these are usually the most relevant.

YzooSearch.com supports this by combining the output from a number of the top search engines such as Google, Yahoo , AOL etc to give the most pertinent results. Hence they describe themselves as the Unofficial MetaCrawler.

Another useful facility is the Latest-Search button. This allows anyone to see what other users are searching for in real-time. If you do a search and then immediately click on '15 Latest Searches' you then get to see your search added to the list.

It may not be as accurate as Google but Yzoosearch.com is a lot more fun!

X Factor Heaven

Big Brother 8 is finishing soon but those who need their regular dose of reality T.V can look forward to the return of X Factor.

If you are a fan like me then have a look at XFactorHeaven.blogspot.com.

This is a useful forum for all X Factor lovers who will find a great "one stop shop" to talk about the winners and losers, with news, pictures and all the videos and every thing to do with X factor. You'll get the inside gossip from the judges and presenters, share your views and opinions, and discover if the new batch of people have what it takes to impress the judges, or be publicly humiliated and have their egos and dreams destroyed in the process to become the next X Factor winner.
