It's been a long time coming. We finally did it. Cool Site of the Day had the 'ol "nip and tuck" performed over the past few weeks. We hope you will find our new gams to be clean and as easy to navigate as they are on the eyes.
Along with the new look, we have two new features: for you webmasters out there, you can get Cool Site of the Day’s 40 Tips for a Successful Web Site FREE just for filling out a brief (3 question) survey. Click here to preview the tips and take the survey.
For you general surfing folks, we have compiled Cool Site of the Day's Coolest Sites & Tools list which, yes, you can also get for FREE if you sign up for the Daily Cool Site of the Day Pick via Email.

Spyware Nuker
=================================================
Yes! We are featuring it again!
Your computer running slower as time goes on? (mine is, but that'll teach me to use Windows ME). The reason for that may have to do with online advertisers adding spyware to your computer without your knowledge. "Spyware" is a common term for files that are installed on your system without your knowledge that allow companies to monitor your Internet activity. What they don't tell you, however, is how these files can be extremely dangerous to your PC and could cause your hard drive to crash.
The folks at Spyware Nuker are offering every computer owner, including yourself, the opportunity to scan your computer to see how many "SpyWare" infections your PC has free of charge.
=================================================
Strange Things I Found on eBay
=================================================
Folks sell all kind of strange stuff. For example:
"FOSSILIZED MALE GENITLES-APE-BABOON-MAN???"

Submit Your Site to Cool Site of the Day!
=================================================
We got such a glowing response from one of our featured sites, we thought we'd share it with you:
"Having Payraise Calculator on Cool Site of the Day was simply one of the best investments I've ever made. The immediate response was significant... about 25,000 hits. What I wasn't prepared for was the 'copycat' syndrome that your site provided. I soon wound up on some other 'cool site of the day' lists... and was even featured in USA Today!"
