thesixtyone
I’ve been tracking thesixtyone for a bit. The first version of the site matched social gaming with music discovery. The newest incarnation has taken a slightly different approach one which is more discovery focused with a mix of simple challenges called quests that encourage you to listen to music and gain reputation points.
The part I love about the new design is the simplicity and richness of the interface.

- Shoreditch locals, Tweetdeck isn't new, but certainly remaining fresh with regular feature updates and a super loyal community. As a standalone app developed in Adobe Flex, it allows for greater functionality and the recent iPhone version allows you to take it with you.
- CoTweet started making some noise mid-last year. It is now out of beta and running supreme in the "enterprise" market, aimed squaring at larger organisations with multiple Twitter teams. Tweet assigning, redirecting and commenting is incredibly useful and the Outlook-style UI makes for very easy use.
2009 Felton Report
I've been a big fan of Nicholas Felton since he produced his first Annual Report in 2006 and the awesome Daytum site. His 2009 report is more of the awesome same and as data visualisation is very much "on-trend" at the moment, will surely boost his already rising profile.
