Some mad genius has uploaded an audio clip to Spotify. Stream it while you sleep and the revenue generated by all the repeat listeners around the world is used to plant trees.

The site for the track is at thissongplantstrees.com:
WeExpire's motto is Simpler than a will; safer than a note. Basically, it's an open-source tool for creating emergency notes that can be read by your trusted contacts only after your death or if you are seriously injured.
How does it work? You create a note and choose an "I'm alive" window. It gives you a unique QR Code. You pass that to the intended reader. When they scan it, the system sends you an email with a link to click. If you don't click it within the "I'm alive" window, the intended reader gains access to your note. You're alive? Click the link and they don't get access.
WikiTrip allows you to enter a location or use Location Services to share your location and then it provides you with interesting things related to that location. Useful when you travel but just as fun if you want to know what you've been missing in your own back yard.
