"Click.to" makes sharing and copy&paste on and offline a breeze (@clicktoapp)

WHAT: You press CTRL + C hundreds of times a day, but between copy and paste are far too many clicks? Now you can’t find the correct target program, for better or worse? And all the while, your colleague has been complaining that you have already sent e-mails without attachments?
These are all detours that cost; time, money, patience and energy. Click.to is the true copy and paste. It brings a Smartphone feeling to the computer, desktop applications and web pages are turned into intelligent network components, all working together. Click.to furthers the Copy & Paste principle idea: With one click, you can find an unknown word with click.to Wikipedia or a technical article with click.to Google. Click.to can also quickly send screenshots to co-workers via email, or find an address in no time with Google Maps. Click.to programs on your computer work together, making boundaries and barriers smaller. This will save you precious time and money. If you have tried click.to once, you’ll never want to take the long route to your programs again.

Grafighters - fighting game for sketchbook characters (@grafighters)

WHAT: GraFighters is a fighting game for all of those characters stuffed in your sketchbooks and on the sides of your class notes.

If you have a pencil and an imagination we’ve got an arsenal of characters waiting to be challenged. The team behind graFighters is a small crew from Syracuse, NY. We started building the game, because just like you we love to draw, but have never been able to take our characters beyond our sketchbooks. Our main goal for this version of the game is to get users familiar with the character uploading process (which allows your drawing to be animated) and Cornelius, an algorithm that analyses your characters and determines their strengths, weaknesses, and fighting styles based on how they’ve been drawn.
