Do you ever go to YouTube looking for music videos? We all do… Avril Lavigne - Girlfriend is #2 for most viewed video. Well that is what Mystrands.tv is all about. The site is simple to use, all you do is enter an artist or genre and MyStrands will start playing music videos it thinks you’ll like. All of the videos played on Mystrands.tv are hosted by YouTube.

Because the videos are hosted on YouTube you may end up hiding some bumps in play due to the video being deleted by the YouTube user or YouTube deleting it for being illegally uploaded. During our time on Mystrands.tv we did not see any deleted video messages so hopefully they made it so removed videos are skipped.

Like most music listening services users are able to give music videos a thumbs up or down to let MyStrands more easily find music that meets your likings.

Facebook has something that myspace does not. That is great applications because of the ease of creation. So it is not surprising that the Voxalot has featured their VoIP calling solution on Facebook. Voxcall gives facebook users the ability to call their facebook friends by using their SIP URI (VoIP address that acts like a phone number and looks like an e-mail address). Users that do not have a SIP URL, can sign up for one by enrolling in the Voxcall Premium service. Voxcall has added a PIN code verification which will stop unauthorized users from using your SIP URI without your permission.

As we all know Google has been fighting for sometime with other social networks such as facebook.

Tomorrow, Google will launch its new social network site, called OpenSocial, with a some social networking players already at the party. The most significant of these players are LinkedIn, Salesforce, and Orkut, who’ve all been around quite a while and have substantialy high popularity: LinkedIn in the business work, Salesforce in CRM applications, and Orkut as a South-American Myspace. Even Friendster has joined the party. Maybe these social networks see Google as their guide to competing with MySpace and Facebook.

Like Facebook, Google’s API will offer users options for customizing profiles. But unlike Facebook, OpenSocial will rely on commonplace JavaScript to do the API’s bidding. Google’s intention is to get as many third-party social nets supporting OpenSocial as possible. And developers will go to anything that saves them from having to re-develop their widgets for different social networks.

We gotta admit this browser does seem a bit out of the ordinary, which is good. It’s a web browser built using Firefox code with a whole lot of neat social networking features.

We downloaded the new version… and we like it! Flock browser now includes a blog editing client, which lets you drag and drop images, text and URLs into your sidebar for handy access on other sites, and a media bar for finding YouTube and other videos.

There’s now a nifty “my world” tab that shows you all of your recently viewed bookmarks and RSS feeds. One let down of Flock is it likes to use your memory, and that is compared to Firefox! If you have a fast machine you will love it. No final release date for Flock 1.0 has been set yet.
