Kontain is a service for sharing multimedia content online and an endless source of good ideas and inspiration.

Filtersage is a community for music and/or movie maniacs based ont the discovery of new connections between items.

Jokeyphone is an application, still in Beta, with which you can see users video-recorded jokes, create channels, participate in contest and possibly upload your own jokes. The flash menu is funnny: iconsand the slight mouse over animation are very enjoyable.

A well-designed balloon gently warns me that if I want to intervene in the wiki Emilialcolica, I must first register.
Ratemyarea is an interesting social leaning on Google maps service that lets you review events in your area.
Even in an error page there may be a bit of poetry: just like in Twitter service error page.
The form to submit content on Digg is really clear: it shows the number of necessary steps (even if they are only two); labels are clear and they also function as a separator; the input text is really long so you can check if the url is correct; the combination of radio buttons and icon [...]
The search form on Kontain, a service for sharing media files online, allows you to filter the fields of research: clicking on the link everything, graphically realized as an extension of the input text, appears a menu with all the available options.
A nice sign up button on Kontain (over on mouse out, below on mouse over), including the not so obvious labeling : Give it a try.
I like Uncover, especially as they present post tags. I’ve been misled by the thumb icon: I thought it was abutton to vote (are we so faceboook-dependent?) but it simply indicates the karma of the item.
Breadcrumbs trails in registrations or, generally speaking, in wizard like this, have the important function of communicating where the user is at and how many steps are missing to the task accomplishment.
Carbonmade is a valuable service for creatives and designers, that allows you to quickly create presentations and portfolios of your work.

Wefollow, the directory of the most followed Twitter, is arranged in square blocks of 5 elements, each linked to a particular topic. The result is certainly more readable of the endless list that typically are used in directories websites

An interesting listing of photos create a public time line on TwitPic website, a service that lets you share your photos on Twitter.
The paging buttons on PSDTUTS +, one of my favorite website about creative resources and tutorials for Photoshop, it’s perfectly coordinated with all the other interface elements.
The voting system implemented in Behance is simply a thumb up. If you click on it in the description page, it gives a textual feedback (thank you!) , while in other sections (e.g home page, category listings) indicates also the total score.
How many books have you read? How much coffee have you drunk? If you want to track your stats and show them to friends and relatives, Daytum is the social for you.
A very delicate balloon, perfectly consistent with the style of this site dedicated to mothers and motherhood.
I like the way the breadcrumbs binds to the title of the search form, entering seamlessy into the layout.
Commands acting on Babelgum showcase are many but well distributed. There are two intersting solutions: the baloon with information and additional options (mouse over on a single thumb) and the submenu expanding from above, when you activate functions such as sharing.
I like Incspring philosophy: recycling logos and brand unsold (and unused) at a reasonable price for a start-up! The interface is well-designed and full of interesting details.
