In my opinion Feed Rinse is one of the best designed products I’ve seen in a while. Their name matches the function of the application, the branding works well with the core message and the overall user interface is intuitive and stylish. The real gem is the user interaction and experience. The process of importing and rinsing your rss feed is fast and easy to use. The free version is limited to 3 feeds, however, it seems to have full functionality, except for profanity filtering. A very well designed application! “

Paguna is one of the first online booking sites that has gone to a one page AJAX powered user interface. After using their competitors websites for years, I find Paguna a breath of fresh air. There are many UI features I like in this site, however, the drag and drop calendar and the instant language translation are my two favorites. While I do feel there is a slight time difference in the return of information between Paguna and their competitors, for me it’s more the allusion of a time difference. The one page model really seems to work in this case as the experience feels faster than most traditional online booking services. At least to me. “
