Introducing Live Kick - a concert calendar app with music library integration, and ticket search engine…. aka a hard core music fans dream. Live Kick is an iConcert Cal meets Kayak tool. To get started (you have to register and create an account), you provide the application with your city and zip code, then upload your iTunes library (or Pandora / online radio / MySpace account / etc.) and within minutes your calendar will be filled with local music concernts and events from musicians you know and love, and to musicians you are unfamiliar with, but are suggested by Live Kick based on your taste in music from your iTunes library.
When you see a concert listing you like, the application will then search the web to bring you the best deal out there. It will search sites like TIcketmaster, StubHub, and eBay.
And if that ain’t easy, it will even send the matching concert info straight to you via RSS/Twitter, OR you can get updates through a downloadable widget. Rock on.

CP+B continues its Whopper infiltration for Burger King with a Facebook app that lets members sacrifice ten of their friends for a free taste of the burger.
Visitors with Facebook accounts can install the app, choose ten people from their list then remove them with the software to prove how they prefer the Whopper over them. So far, over 55,000 people have been de-friended and each will have been notified once you lower the guillotine.

Seriously, keeping up with all my social networks could be a full-time job.
So it would be insanely awesome to have just one place to go to keep up with the on-goings of my pals, get instant updates on the latest Tweets, and even IM my friends. Dreams, meet reality. His name is Yoono.
Yoono is a free FireFox add on that lets you do all that in one little sidebar. Plus, it’s pretty easy on the eyes.

Yoono can keep you up on your Facebook, Flickr, Twitter, Myspace, Aim, Gtalk, Yahoo Messenger, and Imeem accounts so you don’t have to log in to the sites separately to update a thing — it’s all in one spot on your browser! How convenient, indeed.
