<h2>Isolatr</h2>
<p></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.isolatr.com"><img style="float: left" src='http://cache0.techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/03/isolatrlogo.gif'class="shot" alt="" /></a>Isolatr isn&#8217;t a real service, but it should be. Sean Bonner of <a href="http://metroblogging.com/">Metroblogging</a> created the site, which promises to &#8220;help you find where other people aren&#8217;t&#8221;. For bonus content, check out the <a href="http://isolatr.com/faq.html">FAQs</a> (every answer is &#8220;no&#8221;). I love the attention to detail, like calling it a beta service, leaving the &#8220;e&#8221; out of the name and adding fake quotes from Doc Searls and Xeni Jardin.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.thechrispirilloshow.com/ ">Chris Pirillo</a> has been asking for something like this (but real) for ages. <a href="http://www.valleywag.com/tech/social-network/isolatr-the-antisocial-network-160190.php">Valleywag</a> has more. </p>
<p><a href="http://www.snubster.com"></p>
<h2>Snubster</h2>
<p></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.snubster.com"><img style="float: left" src='http://cache0.techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/03/snubsterlogo.gif'class="shot" alt="" /></a>Bryant Choung&#8217;s Snubster is an actual, live service. It helps you notify people, and the world, that you are pissed off at someone. The &#8220;On Notice&#8221; feature tells them that they have committed an &#8220;infraction&#8221; and are in a suspension period. If they really screw up, you can state that they are &#8220;Dead to Me&#8221;. Each user has a profile (<a href="http://www.snubster.com/viewList.php?passListID=102">example</a>) where they can get into the juicy details. The only question I have is, why is there an &#8220;e&#8221; before the &#8220;r&#8221; in the snubster name?</p>
<p>Any other good ones out there that I&#8217;ve missed?</p>
