Originally uploaded by crickee.

Casual Friday 2.0 is a Crickee Land custom which has spread to other parts of the world, wherein Crickee Team celebrates a semi-reprieve from the constrictions of a formal dress code and is allowed to wear fancy web 2.0 dress or gadget. If you want to adopt Casual Friday 2.0, each friday you'll find here a suggestion.

This week, the Animated Retro Table Tennis Shirt. Simply pop two AAA batteries into the concealed pack, push a button and voila!
Amazing animated glowing old skool gaming on your chest.

Note: The two automated computer players are very talented and never seem to miss a shot... but you might want to watch for several hours just to be sure. The Animated Retro Table Tennis Shirt looks best in a darkened room... so, avoid to wear it during too long friday afternoon brainstorming session ;-)

Never draw hasty conclusions…

This week Crickee has learnt from Matador that things are not always as they seem ;-)

Isn't it nice when things just ad-just? See how to?

Advisibility is the wise way Crickee makes your ad highly visible ;-)

i’m making a difference

You know Crickee provides you a really cool app allowing you to stay connected with all your MSN/WLM buddies.

We also know? you are not always using Crickee with your MSN/WLM buddies. But, we suggest that when you are on MSN/WLM, you should make the difference with i'm, a new initiative from Windows Live™ Messenger.


Every time you start a conversation using i’m, Microsoft shares a portion of the program's advertising revenue with some of the world's most effective organizations dedicated to social causes. They've set no cap on the amount they'll donate to each organization. The sky's the limit.


We have selected Stop Global Warming as a cause, but there are others causes you can support. Just read and click on to join now. There's no charge for you, so, put MSN/WLM money where your mouth is.

Steli

Few months ago, Crickee Land opened an ambassy on MyBlogLog. Since a couple of weeks, Crickee Land has opened another ambassy on Spicypage. That's why Crickees' "crush of the week" might come on a MyBlogLogger or a Spicypager or both!

This week, Crickee carries a torch for Steli Efti and his blog about the project Supercool School.
Supercool School is a learning community where people educate each other in a live & interactive way. Very web 2.0 ;-)
The goal is to create a place for free education, friends & fun! The mission is to give everyone worldwide access to all education for free, and the dream is to scale enough to end the education problem worldwide.
How? Simply by giving the power of education to you, to us - the people. As a member you will be able to create online classes and let people join virtual classrooms where you can teach your students live and direct about what you care & love.
Steli comes from Greece, was born and raised in Germany and moving to San Francisco next month... California Dream, lucky Steli!
You can find him on Mybloglog or on Spicypage. Go there, contact him and support the project.

Tungle is a light but powerful peer-to-peer (P2P) meeting coordinator. You can use Tungle to arrange meetings with friends, co-workers or business associates no matter where they are or what calendaring software they use.
Tungle uses a state of the art peer-to-peer architecture to keep your information secure, without Big Brother looking over your shoulder.

Tungle's P2P Engine manages the secure transmission of information and uses advanced authentication and encryption measures to protect your privacy and maintain the integrity of the network.
Of course, Tungle is free. After you coordinate meetings, simply confirm with a Crickee message! Both are simple, easy and they work! Watch the demo here.

Bank on the go with masabi

"We've developed the software so it'll run on as many mobiles as possible - all handsets that run Java, in fact. We can cram so many graphics and a solid user interface into phones six years old," says Ben Whitaker, director of Masabi.
The Java software developed by the London-based company allows users to securely view account details, statements and balances and make transactions all via a user-friendly, brandable graphical interface.
Safe, fast and easy mobile banking soon possible ? At this time, its only a working prototype of a graphically rich, secure mobile banking application, but the company is now seeking financial technology partners to help bring this solution to market.
Crickee's got a new java cousin in finance ;-)
