Guess what time it is. As always, I’m starting with the Twitter suggestions. Don’t forget, if you want a link to your Twitter account, just follow me on Twitter and tweet the following:

@joetech I want a free link in your Bookmark Friday post : http://www.joetech.com/suggests/bmftw

Netflix Prize – Did you know about this? I didn’t. I have about three weeks left to challenge the pending winners. I don’t expect to do much, but I’m going to play anyway.

Sponsored Tweets – Once again, IZEA comes along and does a much better job with something others tried to do (but fail at). It’s not open yet, but I got a sneak peek and it’s very nice.

Twicsy – Want to know the most viewed photos on Twitter? Check this site out. No promises that they’ll all be safe for work, though.

T.G.I.M.B.O.E.J – The Great Internet Migratory Box Of Electronics Junk. I think I need to start one of these.

Do Stuff For Money – PayPal started a site where you offer up some cash for someone to do something. Like I could offer up $10 for someone to come by and wash my car. I’m not sure how much success this idea will encounter.

Massive LED project – This looks like a pretty cool project. I’m fascinated with video and manipulation of images, so I love stuff like this.

Twittering keylogger – Imagine everything you type getting tweeted to the world. A little scary to me.

Firefox 3.5 Beta – Beta or not, this is an notable improvement. It’s faster and has some cool new features.

2012 movie trailer in HD – I can’t wait to see this movie in November. The youtube user hollywoodstreams has lots of HD trailers to watch.

Michael Jackson – I wanted to start with this link as I sit here listening to some old MJ tracks and remembering how I feel every time I hear them.

IWearYourShirt.com – This is actually a great idea. Of course, if he sold only a few days and got no press or buzz, it would be a horrible investment. As it stands, though, the investment just might be worth it. I’d probably buy a December day if I had the budget set aside for it. We’ll see.

Feedly – Feedly came out of nowhere, making my Google Reader feeds just so much more awesome. My feeds total about 1,000 articles a day, so this will help me greatly in sifting through them.

IZEAFest – This is a fun annual event that I’d love to end up at this October. If you’re going, comment below.

Google Voice – Google Voice wants to give you a viable option to your cell phone and they’re opening up the phone number land rush soon. They have a million numbers reserved, so sign up for an invite.

DSLR Remote for iPhone – This is an awesome app for any one with a DSLR and an iPhone. Just be sure your camera supports Live View before buying the Pro version. Oops.

And on to the bookmarks (just a few again this week)!

Get creative with Google Chrome – Google likes to have creative contests now and then. In this one, see how creative you can be in duplicating the Google Chrome logo.

Increase subscriptions with incentives – This post on JohnChow.com explains how you can increase your subscriber numbers greatly by offering incentives. Did I mention that I’m having another contest?

Save a couple hundred bucks – Once again, Microsoft is trying very hard to be in the search game and offering killer incentives. This one lets you save 35% on your purchase at AT&T. For a $600 iPhone, that would be $210 off. Not bad.

Million Pixel Twitter Page – Once upon a time, Alex Tew made the Million Dollar Home Page. Years later, with Twitter becoming the next Facebook (well, maybe), someone basically just applied the old idea with a new limitation.

High speed camera trigger – This is yet another cheap way to build a high speed camera trigger for amazing photos.

The Sims 3 – I’m not big on paying for games that will suck up all my free time, but I always liked the Sims series and I think I might actually buy and play this one.

One man dance party (video) – This guy dances like crazy until random people start joining in, eventually becoming maybe a hundred or more all dancing with him.

New religion: Pyrasphere – Looks like a joke, but it scared me for a minute with the celeb appearance.

And on to the bookmarks!

The Rosetta Project – This is a great project, offering a ton of information, presented in hundreds of languages all on on disc.

Data.gov – If you had any doubts that we live in a data sharing era, just click. Ton’s of data from our government at your fingertips.

Chain Rxn – This is an addicting little flash game for Facebook.

Top 20 Video Memes – This is a pretty good list of viral videos and good for a laugh if you need it.

Google Wave preview – If you’re a developer, take an hour plus and watch this. Wave does some pretty cool things.

Spymaster This is another addicting game, but for Twitter users this time.

Controllerless Xbox Experience? – Watch the video and drool a little, but remember that MS promises pretty things all the time.

Texts from last night – Some really funny text messages, but it’s not censored, so you’ve been warned.

Chinese Windows XP Phone – I’d love to check one of these out.

Giant curved monitor – I love my 24″ monitor at the office, but I would much rather have this. Someone buy it for my birthday next week, please.

And on to the bookmarks…

Official PSDs – Working on a client site, I was looking for a Facebook logo to add and came across this web site. They have tons of free layered PSDs for your projects.

Crazy Egg – If you have a blog or web site and want to know how your menu, ad, etc. placement is working for you, try out a service like this one. It tracks the actual mouse movements on your site so you get an idea of where people are looking.

Google Search with options – Search smarter with Google’s search options.

iPhone DSLR remote – This is a great idea for an app and I can’t wait to try it out with my Canon Rebel XTi.

Multimodal Brain Orchestra – Watch some guys make music with their minds.

Ninja New York – This looks like my kind of restaurant.

100 Geeks you should be following – Sadly, I did not make the cut.

Anti-Gravity sculptures – Some great anti-gravity sculptures and installations.

Blacksocks.com – Subscribe to automatically replenish your black sock supply regularly.

iPod Touch powered robot – I love to see stuff like this where someone does something different and cool with technology. And it’s a robot… my weakness.

Light as performance art – Great photos of visual brilliance.

Post-production light painting – Great tutorial on how to do “light painting” in your photos for a cool effect.

Logo My Way – This is a great way to get a good logo. Offer up a bounty for the winning entry (say $200) and get a couple hundred or so entries to sift through for your new logo.

Waze real-time driving updates – It’s a mobile app that gives real-time user-submitted updates about accidents, construction, incidents, etc.
