• The first "street-level imaging" service for East and Central Europe  
  Norc is the first "Made in Romania" web service allowing its visitors to do virtual walks through cities in Central and Eastern Europe. It is using a navigation system switching through panoramic images taken in the street, a system also called "street-view" or "street-level imaging".
  In other words, a clone of Google Street View but emphasizing coverage of C&EE.

• Wolfram|Alpha 
  Today's Wolfram|Alpha is the first step in an ambitious, long-term project to make all systematic knowledge immediately computable by anyone. You enter your question or calculation, and Wolfram|Alpha uses its built-in algorithms and growing collection of data to compute the answer.
  Built with Mathematica—which is itself the result of more than 20 years of development at Wolfram Research—Wolfram|Alpha's core code base now exceeds 5 million lines of symbolic Mathematica code. Running on supercomputer-class compute clusters, Wolfram|Alpha makes extensive use of the latest generation of web and parallel computing technologies, including webMathematica and gridMathematica.

• About drop.io 
  Drop.io is an easy to use, online collaboration and file sharing service that provides users with a simple, real time and private way to chat and share images, video, audio, documents and other digital content through unique, user-created and controlled sharing points called 'drops.'
  Each 'drop' is non-searchable, non-networked, does not require any type of account registration and can be password-protected and set to expire after a period of time, so you can share exactly what you want with whom you want for as long as you want.

• Enthought Tool Suite 
  The Enthought Tool Suite (ETS) is a collection of components developed by Enthought and our partners, which we use every day to construct custom scientific applications. It includes a wide variety of components, including:
  * an extensible application framework
  * application building blocks
  * 2-D and 3-D graphics libraries
  * scientific and math libraries
  * developer tools
  The cornerstone on which these tools rest is the Traits package, which provides explicit type declarations in Python; its features include initialization, validation, delegation, notification, and visualization of typed attributes.
