More Cool Websites To Help Ease Your Life

Well, this website is about making your life easier right? So here are a few links I think will do just that.

If you need to get rid of a lot of junk, junk that might be someone else's treasure, go to chanceXchange. They focus on trading dvds, vhs, games, books and more.

If you're on vacation but don't like the being part of a group tour, go to tourcaster. They allow you to download a podcast audio tour of your destination and points out historic landmarks and notable sites. I'll be sure to check this out when I'm on vacation.

Lastly, go to travelicio.us to get a compilation of blogs, articles, and pictures from Flickr, BootsnAll, del.icio.us showcasing different travel spots around the world and get helpful hints and reviews as well.

China Will See Underwater Hotel


I've always enjoyed going to theme parks and riding in those mini-subs. In all my travels, I haven't seen or stayed in theme-type hotels. Well, now it looks like one resort will be making the underwater world as their theme and China will see the first one. I think this is cool and kind of freaky at the same time. That thing better be sealed good!

Having obtained sea rights from China, Crescent Hydropolis Resorts will build the world's first underwater hotel and resort there named Hydropolis Qingdao. The Hydrotower component will be located on 33,000 sq meters of land that was formerly the Ocean Entertainment Park in Qingdao, and completion is slated prior to the start of the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympic Games. The actual underwater hotel section or Hydropalace, will be located southwest of the island of Chidao and will be operative in 2009.The company is also working on the underwater hotel in Dubai, with plans to build in London, Monaco, Munich, New York and the Isle of Man.
